Who should consider the Avondale Dart?

Who it suits

  • Buyers seeking a used caravan with a recorded MTPLM of 1150 kilograms and a payload of 230 kilograms, subject to checking the tow car and the specific caravan.
  • Households choosing between compact layouts, including End Kitchen, Side Dinette, Fixed Bunks, Parallel Lounge and End Washroom arrangements.
  • Those who value the Dart’s recorded lightweight GRP coachwork and practical interior layouts over newer onboard technology.

Reasons to consider it

  • The combination of a 5.85-metre length and 2.13-metre width gives buyers clear dimensions to assess against their storage space and preferred sites.
  • The berth range from two to six covers solo, couple and family-oriented layouts within the Dart range.
  • Recorded features include panoramic front windows, Truma blow-air heating, wood-grain cabinetry and an integrated status TV aerial.
  • The listed price range of £2500 to £6500 places the model in a lower used-market bracket than the supplied alternatives.

What to check

  • Confirm the exact berth count and layout, because the Dart range includes several configurations.
  • Check the plated MTPLM, actual payload and loaded nose weight on the individual caravan before purchase or towing.
  • Inspect the GRP exterior, roof design, seals, windows and interior cabinetry, particularly because the caravan is no longer in production.
  • Verify the condition and operation of the heating, kitchen equipment, washroom equipment and status TV aerial rather than assuming all recorded features remain present.
  • Measure the 5.85-metre length, 2.13-metre width and 2.61-metre height against storage access and the intended tow-car setup.

Worth knowing: The supplied data does not identify a single production year or exact Dart variant. No current marketplace listing is recorded, so the supplied price range should be treated as a reference only.

The Avondale Dart stands apart in the supplied data for its listed MTPLM of 1150 kilograms, payload of 230 kilograms and lower price range of £2500 to £6500. The supplied alternatives offer six berths but have higher listed weight figures and higher price ranges, with lengths ranging from 5.7 metres to 6.38 metres. The appropriate choice depends on the required berth count, tow-car limits, available budget, dimensions and the condition of the individual used caravan.

Worth knowing: Specifications and prices can vary by model year, trim and optional equipment.

Avondale Dart ownership checks

  • Keep the recorded 230-kilogram payload in mind when adding water, gas, equipment and personal belongings, and confirm the caravan’s actual weights before loading.
  • Use the listed 5.85-metre length, 2.13-metre width and 2.61-metre height when checking storage, access routes and towing clearances.
  • Match maintenance and equipment checks to the chosen layout. End Kitchen, Side Dinette, Fixed Bunks, Parallel Lounge and End Washroom arrangements have different areas to inspect and use.
  • Check seals and the one-piece exterior roof as part of routine ownership inspections, while treating the individual caravan’s condition as decisive.
  • Confirm that the heating, aerial and other fitted equipment operate correctly, since equipment can vary by model year, trim and optional specification.

Common mistakes to avoid

  • Treating the recorded 1150-kilogram MTPLM as the caravan’s current loaded weight without checking the individual plate and actual load.
  • Assuming every Avondale Dart has the same berth count, layout or equipment.
  • Ignoring the 2.61-metre height and 2.13-metre width when planning storage or access.

Worth knowing: The supplied data does not provide a maintenance schedule or identify particular faults. Condition, equipment and specification require confirmation for the individual used caravan.
