Where to buy 2nd hand caravan

Hi,
I'm looking to purchase a 2nd hand touring caravan, nothing to expensive - say 4k or under.
I've looked on gumtree but that just confused me after I had phoned a few people who suggested that I be careful as alot are rubbish!

Does anyone know a reputable dealer who sells caravans near belfast or county antrim? Any good expereinces or recommendations would be appreciated!

Thanks,

    Preaching to the converted i'm sure, but

    * check thoroughly for damp - lift carpets, check under units, check everywhere.
    * check that everything works.
    * ensure that the dealer isnt selling you "extras" that would originally have come with the van
    * check the AGE of the caravan - dont take the dealers word for it.
  • Try Dorvic at Ballyclare, good reputation from when we bought from them, theres also abbey caravans at the bottom of Rathcoole. Wasn't impressed with hagans when we looked at their stock many years ago, no idea if they still do them or not.
