Hi all
The wife's brother ( a bachelor of senior age) is thinking of buying a small second hand Elross van. While we live in
Perth we have no knowledge of their reputation or the pros and cons of this particular manufacturer.
Can anyone help with some information? Your advice would be really appreciated.
Many thanks
John

Hi
You probably really need to hear from someone who has an Elross van but in the absence of that I will tell you what I know.
They have been around for some time and have an excellent reputation for building off road vans.
Some time ago we had a tour of their factory. We were impressed with the quality. They build to your specifications. At that time there was a long waiting list to have a van built.
Due to other commitments we did not go ahead.
Regards
Rowdy

A friend of
mine bought one new, it was custom built and there was a long wait period before it was delivered.
Customers are welcome to inspect the factory and their van being built..
The finished product was a very
well constructed and finished off road caravan.
If I was looking for a custom built van I would not go anywhere else in WA.
They were, and may still be, building work and accommodation vans for the WA govt departments.
As with all caravans secondhand a thorough inspection looking for water ingress, structural and chassis damage, electrical fittings and wiring and general wear and tear depending on the caravan's age is
well worth doing.
Hope this helps
Disco.

Many thanks for the replies.
Unfortunately the van he was looking at was sold yesterday (the day it was advertised) . This probably proives what good vans they are.
