6 Caravan Brands Collapsing in the UK — You Won't Guess Number One

Get The Million-Mile Motorhome Care Bible → https://liibro.com/l/motorhome The order to look at a used coach in — so you know what it's worth before anybody says a number. --- Six caravan brands are facing collapse or closure in the UK, and the story behind each one is more complicated than a simple bankruptcy. From the cash flow crises that ended Avondale, Fleetwood and Lunar, to the razor-thin profit margins that brought down Atlas Leisure Homes, to the dramatic police raid involving over a hundred and sixty-five officers at European giant Knaus Tabbert, each collapse tells you something important about the state of the UK touring caravan market in 2025 and 2026. The towed caravan market has shrunk severely since the pandemic boom, and factories built for high demand are now impossible to sustain. The most surprising entry is Elddis of Consett, owned by Erwin Hymer and ultimately Thor Industries, which is closing its sixty-year-old production facility while the brand itself continues trading. The video also tackles what a manufacturer collapse really means for the caravan on your driveway, the truth behind ten-year water ingress warranties, and why parts availability matters far more than the badge when protecting the value of your van. #caravans #caravanlife #ukcamping #motorhome #outdoorlife #travel #vanlife #camping #consumernews #personalfinance
