Has anyone else spotted one of these new brand Caravans on the road yet?
They are quite stunning in design, real head turners, top of the high market range of luxury caravans complete with side slide out extention at the press of a button. British made, they are a market stealer from brands such as 'Hobby' and the American imports with similar slide out extending sides. You would need a real beefy towcar to pull one, we have just returned from the Sandringham CC site where one of these super vans was sited, along with its Range rover towcar. There are quite a few pictures on the net of the interiors, but no two will ever be the same, as like most expensive custom built cars, you get to choose your decor, fabrics, and kitchen unit finishes when you place your order, making each caravan unique.

I thought they went bust & plenty lost their deposits? Plenty about them if you google. If you are thinking of buying secondhand, it would need to be very cheap.
The caravan looked brand new, certainly no outward signs of build quality problems, and displayed right at the entrance to the CC site, as if the owners wanted to show it off.
I did wonder about the possibility of leaks in the slide out section, and looked the brand website up and there was no mention of receivership or the vans no longer being built.
They looked very solid, and reminded me of the VanRoyce caravans of years gone by.

ETERNITI owners have formed a Facebook Page where we discuss the vans and arrange numerous gathering around the country. We even have a dedicated ETERNITI specialist maintenance man who come and services the van for you. ONLY THE FIRST FEW HAD PROBLEMS AND ALL THE SPARE PARTS ARE U.K. BASED INCLUDING THE SLIDE OUT.
It's not so much the problems. It's mostly that the factory is no longer in existance. This is not a viable purchase for anybody who has no mechanical ability & no practical skills. Generally caravan repair workshops do not like undertaking work on 'unusual' caravans. I would guess for anybody totally reliant on paid service costs will be high.
To be viable. Purchase price of this caravan needs to reflect it's nature. That is a project that can only be undertaken by anybody with the skills to mostly diy maintain a caravan of this nature.
Good luck with realising your price. If you cannot & must sell I would auction it to highest bidder.
All parts including the chassis bodywork and fittings are readily available in the U
All electrical parts like cooker, fridge freezer, heaters are UK such as Aldi and Trauma.
There is even a dedicated service engineer who specialises in this van.
Ours is 100 % faultless and always has been.
There is an active members group who meet regularly around the country.
3 members vans have recently been sold due to I'll health and change of circumstances. The new members are thrilled with there vans and already joining in on meetings.
