What to Look For When Buying a Used Camper Van

  1. Service history and MOT record – Look for regular servicing and avoid vehicles with repeated advisories for the same issues.

  2. Safety compliance – If the van has seatbelted travel seats, ensure they’re factory-fitted or correctly retrofitted. Gas systems should have valid safety certificates.

  3. Electrical setup – Check the leisure battery health, wiring quality, and whether the system has been installed by a professional.

  4. Signs of water ingress – Damp can cause costly structural problems. Pay attention to seals, roof lights, and window frames.

  5. Mileage vs usage – Low mileage isn’t always best if the van has been standing for long periods without maintenance.

We follow these same guidelines when sourcing our stock,meaning you avoid the common pitfalls discussed by local buyers.


Popular Questions About Used Camper Vans

We’ve taken some of the most frequently asked questions and answered them here:

Q: Is a factory-built camper better than a self-build?
A: Factory builds often hold value better, but a quality self-build can be just as reliable, provided it’s done to a professional standard. That’s why all our conversions meet strict safety and build quality checks.

Q: Do I need to check the gas and electrical systems?
A: Absolutely. Any onboard gas system should have an up-to-date safety certificate, and the electrics should be inspected for correct installation. At Imperial, these checks are part of our preparation process.

Q: Will my camper fit in a standard parking space?
A: Short-wheelbase models like the VW T6 usually fit fine, but longer wheelbase Sprinters or Crafters may require larger bays. We’ll help you choose the right model for your lifestyle.
