If you are shopping for a caravan now, the useful question is where your budget gives you the widest choice. The 8 September 2026 snapshot shows two particularly well-stocked parts of the market: £15,000–£19,999 and £30,000–£39,999. They offer a similar depth of choice, but the typical model year is very different.
RoamWorthy had 1,294 live dealer caravans in the snapshot. Across all of them, the median advertised asking price was £21,995. Used stock made up the larger group, with 890 used caravans at a median of £17,995. There were 354 new caravans at a median of £32,840. A further 50 listings had no usable new-or-used classification, so they are included in the overall figure but not in either condition group.
Used and new: where the price gap sits
The headline medians are a useful starting point, but the middle 50% of each group gives a better feel for the prices you are likely to encounter while browsing.
| Stock type | Listings | Median asking price | Middle 50% range | Median model year |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Used | 890 | £17,995 | £13,495–£23,495 | 2019 |
| New | 354 | £32,840 | £26,294–£38,423.75 | 2026 |
| All live stock | 1,294 | £21,995 | £15,420–£31,295 | 2022 |
The overlap is where the more interesting decisions arise. At the upper end of the used range, you may be comparing a newer or higher-specification used caravan with lower-priced new stock. The right choice depends on the layout, condition, equipment and warranty of the vehicles in front of you, not simply on whether an advert says “new” or “used”.
If you are deciding which side of the market suits you, compare used caravans and new caravans side by side rather than treating them as completely separate searches.
Where the current stock sits by budget
The stock distribution shows where you will have more alternatives and where choice becomes thinner.
| Advertised price band | Live listings | Median model year |
|---|---|---|
| Under £10,000 | 127 | 2012 |
| £10,000–£14,999 | 193 | 2016 |
| £15,000–£19,999 | 255 | 2019 |
| £20,000–£24,999 | 204 | 2023 |
| £25,000–£29,999 | 162 | 2024 |
| £30,000–£39,999 | 243 | 2026 |
| £40,000+ | 110 | 2026 |
The largest single band is £15,000–£19,999, with 255 caravans. The £30,000–£39,999 band is close behind with 243. The two groups are similar in size but different in age: their median model years are 2019 and 2026 respectively.
The £20,000–£24,999 band is another useful reference point. Its median model year is 2023, giving you a sense of the stock currently available before you start opening individual adverts. It does not mean every caravan in that range is newer or better value.
Which makes give you the most to compare?
Stock depth helps when you are still working out what suits you. A make with more live caravans gives you more opportunities to compare layouts, ages, specifications and dealer locations before deciding what an individual example is worth to you.
| Make | Live listings | Median asking price |
|---|---|---|
| Bailey | 402 | £20,572 |
| Swift | 348 | £21,995 |
| Coachman | 199 | £34,995 |
| Elddis | 65 | £24,495 |
| Sprite | 58 | £18,995 |
| Bessacarr | 38 | £26,495 |
| Lunar | 36 | £9,999 |
| Adria | 29 | £23,995 |
| Buccaneer | 22 | £31,245 |
| Sterling | 19 | £12,695 |
Bailey has the deepest stock on RoamWorthy, followed by Swift and Coachman. That describes what is available on this marketplace today; it is not a ranking of the “best” caravan brands or a claim about national sales.
Make-level median prices need the same care. Coachman’s £34,995 median describes the current mix of Coachman stock; it does not mean every Coachman should cost around that figure. Age, range, specification and condition can shift the price of an individual caravan.
How to use this index when you are buying
Use the figures as boundaries for a shortlist, not as answers in themselves.
- Set the budget first. Use the price-band table to see where the current depth of choice sits.
- Then choose the layout. A cheaper caravan is not good value if the bed, washroom or lounge arrangement does not work for you. Compare caravan layouts before focusing on individual adverts.
- Compare several examples of the same make or model. Deeper stock makes it easier to spot differences in age, specification and asking price.
- Keep dealer location practical. Once the shortlist is manageable, use caravan dealers to identify vehicles you can realistically view and compare.
The index is not a “buy this caravan” ranking. It is a way to get your bearings before travelling to dealers or narrowing your search to a handful of vehicles.
About the data
This snapshot was captured from RoamWorthy marketplace inventory on 8 September 2026. It includes published, available caravans with a positive asking price that are eligible for analytics and linked to a canonical caravan model. Listings flagged with suspicious prices are excluded.
All prices are advertised asking prices, not completed transaction prices. The figures describe stock represented on RoamWorthy and should not be read as national UK sales, registrations or manufacturer market share. Medians are used because they are less affected by a small number of unusually expensive or unusually cheap vehicles.
