General questions

What is a Glaravan?

Open tab

A Glaravan is an old type of caravan from the 60s and 80s that has been completely modernized to today's standards. With every Glaravan, the chassis has been completely overhauled and equipped with new axles, brakes and a new clutch. The inside has been completely rebuilt with new bottom plates, insulation, electricity, water and gas. On the inside, the interior has been completely replaced and where possible made lighter in weight without sacrificing strength and rigidity. A Glaravan is therefore a brand new custom caravan with a vintage look. With every Glaravan we strive to maintain a vintage vibe while at the same time creating a modern travel palace.en.

Do I have to deliver a caravan?

How does the contract work?

With a Custom-Made Glaravan, the entire design is reviewed and signed for approval before the start of the construction of the Glaravan. The contract consists of two parts; Contract Part A in which the technology is determined and contract part B, in which the interior is determined. Upon signing, the buyer agrees to the design as outlined on paper, along with the samples/samples shown that correspond to the materials used in the Glaravan.

Maintenance service

How does maintenance work?

Open tab

To keep the warranty of your beautiful Glaravan valid, the requirement is that the caravan is maintained every year for 3 years after delivery of the Glaravan. This will usually take place in the spring, preferably before your first camping trip. During this maintenance, we check the entire caravan and ensure that you can enjoy another carefree summer.

 

BOVAG Maintenance

From 2021 we will be working with an external party for BOVAG maintenance. A BOVAG Maintenance is a combination of inspection and maintenance of all essential parts of your caravan. More than 60 maintenance points are checked. A recognized inspector checks all these points, including legal requirements such as tires and safety such as the gas installation. If necessary, parts are repaired or replaced.

After checking, you will receive an extensive inspection report, stating which points have been checked and what the findings are. If your caravan has been approved at all inspection points, it will be provided with a BOVAG inspection sticker (which we will of course not stick!). This shows the months and the year in which the BOVAG maintenance was carried out. The BOVAG inspection includes a 6-month warranty on the maintenance performed.

Our third party performs a full BOVAG inspection, which includes the following:

-       Gas Control & Extortion

-       Undercarriage regular maintenance & check

-       Control of all driving lights

-       Moisture control

This party also tackles all these points, apart from possible leakages; We repair these at Glaravans ourselves based on the moisture report (after which a 2nd check is carried out to confirm the repair).

At Glaravans we check the other matters such as the interior, operation of equipment & comments from yourself.

What does the maintenance cost?

Open tab

Maintenance costs are€ 254.95 incl. VAT, (Price level 2023) excluding regular maintenance. For regular maintenance you can think of, for example, tires & brake pads. We will of course handle all matters that fall under warranty at no cost. Personal desired adjustments to the caravan in consultation.

Do you also do maintenance on non-Glaravans?

Open tab

We do not do maintenance & refurbishment jobs for 'old' caravans. We can, however, advise you various addresses if necessary.

What service does Glaravans offer?

Open tab

We are always at our disposal for the Glaravan owners. Some adjustments to the caravan are always possible as well as other requests according to your wishes.

Accessories & Insurance

Can I insure my Glaravan?

Open tab

Our Glaravans can be insured with the ANWB & Centraal Beheer via the replacement value of our caravans. You are then insured for the purchase price and the applicable amortization of insurance for a maximum of 3 years. After the first 3 years or immediately upon delivery of a Glaravan, you can also opt for insurance through a Glaravans partner. This works by means of an appraisal report that is provided by Glaravans in collaboration with a well-known and recognized appraiser.

The Glaravans are insured for a maximum of 3 years for the replacement value from the moment of delivery, after which the current value will apply. This is where the problem lies for almost all Glaravans; On paper, the Glaravans were all built in the 1960s-70s-80s, which means that the current value will almost always be 0.00.

After the valuation you are insured for 3 years through our partner and you can have a new valuation report drawn up every 3 years via Glaravans before extending the insurance.

Do you also have a manual for the caravan?

Open tab

We are currently working on a global manual that applies to all Glaravans. You will of course receive extensive instructions and a 24/7 helpline from us if you have any questions.

Are suitable awnings also available?

Open tab

Suitable awnings are available for all our caravans. For example, the Campooz Awning in our webshop fits on almost all caravans, but there are also plenty of alternatives. Ask us for more information!

Do I get other benefits as a Glaravan owner?

Open tab

Our brand is growing, this of course has many advantages and surprises for the proud owners of our Glaravans! Which, of course, we won't reveal..
