How much do campervans for sale cost in 2026?

Used campervans, motorhomes and touring caravans on this marketplace run from £4,995 to around £75,000, with most private-seller campervans landing between £12,000 and £30,000. The prices below are what tidy, road-ready examples actually change hands for in the UK this year — not asking prices. Every listing is sold direct by the private owner or dealer, with no commission and no buyer fees.

Small van conversions (2 berth) — £7,995 – £19,995

VW Transporter, Ford Transit Custom, Vauxhall Vivaro and Renault Trafic conversions. Pop-top roof, two-burner hob, leisure battery. Easiest to park and to insure, and the band that sells fastest.

VW California and factory campers — £24,995 – £54,995

Factory-built with elevating roof, kitchen and four travel seats. Holds value better than any other band, so expect firm asking prices and little negotiating room on tidy examples.

Panel van conversions (4 berth) — £14,995 – £39,995

LWB Sprinter, Crafter, Boxer and Ducato builds with fixed beds, washrooms and diesel heating. Best value per bed if you can live with a 6m vehicle.

Coachbuilt motorhomes — £18,995 – £74,995

Swift, Bailey, Auto-Trail and Elddis coachbuilts with full washroom, oven and fixed or drop-down beds. Check damp readings and habitation service history before anything else.

Touring caravans — £4,995 – £24,995

The cheapest way into touring if you already have a tow car. Match the caravan's laden weight to 85% of your car's kerbweight and check your licence category.

What to check before buying a used campervan

We run our own hire fleet from Perth, so this is the list we use on every vehicle we buy. Work through it in order — the first two rule out most bad buys before you waste a journey.

Damp is the deal-breaker

Ask the seller for a current damp report, or take a meter. Anything over 20% in walls, lockers or around roof lights means expensive repair. Press the corners of the floor and around windows with your hand — softness is a walk-away.

Habitation service, not just MOT

An MOT covers the vehicle, not the living area. You want a habitation service within the last 12 months covering gas soundness, 240V, water and damp. No habitation history on a coachbuilt is worth thousands off the price.

Conversion paperwork

For a self-build or professional conversion, ask for a gas safety certificate, an electrical certificate and evidence the V5C says 'motor caravan'. Without that V5C change, insurance and resale both get harder.

Mileage matters less than use

A 140,000-mile Transit used weekly is often healthier than a 40,000-mile van stood for three years. Look for a cambelt record, date-stamped tyres under six years old, and a leisure battery that holds charge overnight.

Check what is actually included

Awning, bike rack, gas bottles, hook-up cable, waste hoses and a spare key add up fast. Confirm in writing what stays with the vehicle before you agree a price.

Pay safely

Never pay a deposit to hold a vehicle you have not seen. Bank transfer on collection, after viewing and paperwork checks, is the norm for private sales. We take no commission and no buyer fees, so no money passes through us.

Buy in the off-season

October to February is the quietest time to buy. There are fewer buyers and sellers are more willing to negotiate than in spring. A cold day is also the best test: start the heater from cold and look for condensation or damp patches.

Not sure yet? Try before you buy

A week away in a hire van tells you more about layout and berth count than any viewing. Email us your dates and we'll match you with a hire partner — the wider network covers Scotland and the rest of the UK.

Buying a Used Campervan — What to Expect at Each Budget

Budgets, honestly

Under £15,000 usually means an older high-mileage panel van conversion or a small day van: fine for weekends, expect to spend on tyres, habitation seals and a leisure battery. £15,000–£30,000 is the bulk of the market — solid VW, Ford and Renault conversions and older coachbuilts with fitted kitchens, heating and proper beds. Above £30,000 you are into recent conversions and low-mileage motorhomes with warranty left.

Mileage matters less than damp. A 150,000-mile van with a dry, sound habitation area and a service history is a far better buy than an 80,000-mile van with soft floor corners or a stained ceiling. Get a damp reading before you hand money over, and check the habitation electrics work on both hook-up and battery.

How buying works here

Every listing shows the seller's own contact details, so your enquiry reaches them directly and you deal with the owner or dealer without a middleman and without buyer fees. New vehicles are added as owners post them, so it is worth checking back and looking at nearby towns as well as your own.

Bring the paperwork conversation forward: V5C in the seller's name, MOT history, habitation service records, gas certificate if one exists, and confirmation of any outstanding finance. Sensible sellers expect these questions and will have answers ready.
