Hi
I agree, it just so unfair, I can buy a second hand car and have the warranty no need to pay for change over. Why is a caravan so different?
It's a disgrace.
I will keep on saying that Elddis caravans are not worth buying due to poor workmanship.

The same could be said for all UK caravans.

Hi
Yes I have had it serviced. The interior around the large vent has dropped down.
All joins in paper curled. We have damp.
The damp was discovered on the first service at a year old. Elddis basically said hard luck you did not transfer warranty.
Disgusting attitude. A vast amount of money wasted. I thought I was buying a quality product. I was very wrong. We are stuck with a van that is worthless. It is serviced every year.




Chris, I really do think you need to challenge Elddis to justify their stance.
Of course they will try to push you off with "you did not transfer the warranty".
Push back Chris, don't just roll over and moan about them on this forum.
