Fancy vanlife? Now you can try before you buy
If you like the idea of vanlife but you're not quite ready to commit to buying a campervan, this could be the answer
Campervan company, Camper Tribe, has launched a try-before-you-buy, 48-hour test drive option, to let customers sample vanlife before buying a campervan.
How much does it cost?
Prices start from £210 in off-peak season, and this fee will be refunded if customers then go on to buy.
Where can I hire from?
Campervan test drives are available from Aberdeen, for Scotland, as well as from a number of locations in the south of England. Delivery and collection is also available within a 50-mile radius of its Chertsey (Surrey) site at a charge of £75.
