What to Know Before You Buy
Semi Off-Road Caravans in Australia
Explore semi off-road caravans for sale across Australia and learn what to consider before choosing the right caravan for your travels.
Looking for a semi off-road caravan? These caravans are a popular choice for travellers who spend most of their time on sealed roads but also want the flexibility to explore maintained gravel roads, regional campsites and national parks.
Semi off-road capability can vary between manufacturers and models, so it is important to check the caravan’s construction, specifications and recommended use before buying.
What Is a Semi Off-Road Caravan?
A semi off-road caravan generally offers more ground clearance and stronger components than a standard touring caravan.
They are commonly designed for sealed roads and suitable unsealed roads but may not be built for difficult four-wheel-drive tracks or severe off-road conditions.
Common features may include:
- Upgraded suspension
- Increased ground clearance
- Stone protection
- Protected plumbing and water tanks
- Additional solar, battery or water capacity
- An articulating coupling
Key Features to Look For
Construction and Suspension
Check the chassis, suspension and underside for damage, corrosion or signs of heavy use.
Ground Clearance
Look at the clearance beneath the entire caravan, including water tanks, plumbing, steps and stabiliser legs.
Towing Weights
Make sure the caravan’s loaded weight and tow ball weight are suitable for your tow vehicle.
Power and Water
Consider how much battery, solar and water capacity you need for the way you plan to travel.
Tyres, Brakes and Coupling
Check that the tyres, brakes, wheels and coupling are in good condition and correctly rated for the caravan.
Intended Use
Check the manufacturer’s recommendations, as not all semi off-road caravans are designed for the same road conditions.

I would recommend FindMyVan to anyone wishing to sell their van, it was so much easier than working through a caravan dealer or selling privately.

We found Vicky very easy to deal with even though we weren’t herclient her help was invaluable to get us through the process.

Stu, South Australia
Hello, I found Vicky and Find My Van after a great recommendation from a friend of mine. Vicky found my fantastic van only 2 hours away from where I live. I would highly recommend Vicky and Find My Van if you are in the market for a caravan. Vicky is now selling a caravan for a family member right now.

Paul J, South Australia
Vicky did a wonderful job of selling our caravan quickly and efficiently, We would definitely recommend her service. The whole team was very professional

Andrew G, South Australia
I found Vicky extremely helpful throughout the process of purchasing our caravan. Nothing seemed too much trouble for her and she responded quickly to our questions. A very positive experience. Great to work with a professional who knows her business and the various complexities around selling and purchasing.

David and Michelle South Australia
We recently sold our van through Find my van. Vicky was very professional and reliable. She took all of the hassle out of advertising and setting up genuine viewings of our van. She filtered out the time wasters for us. It didn’t take long at all to sell. In the end we met the buyers of our van and we were pleased it went to a lovely couple, who we hope will enjoy it as much as we did. We would highly recommend either buying or selling a preloved van through Find my van.

Shane, South Australia
I recently used the services of Find My Van who were very well represented by Vicky. Vicky arranged the sale of my dads caravan, obtaining a price we were all happy with. Vicky was professional, responded promptly to messages and easily negotiated issues with our own unavailability and any last minute requests for viewing arrangements by interested parties. All in all, Vicky and Find My Van took all the hard work out of our hands and provided the service that we were hoping for. Would definitely use and recommend Find My Van (and Vicky) again

Felicity B, Western Australia

Vicky and her team were able to answer all my questions about the vans there on the day, understood my needs and I was impressed with the variation – something for every budget.

Vicky is well organised and well connected, her company sold my van and tow vehicle within a few weeks, great to work with highly recommended.

Alicia, South Australia
Working with Find My Van was the best decision we made! We had been on the hunt for our dream van for months but it was way too hard trying to set up viewings as we live so far away from everything. Vicky did all the work for us and set up video calls so she could walk us through it.We found our new home on wheels thanks to Vicky going above and beyond and keeping it stress free.

Melanie R, Western Australia
Cannot recommend Vicky highly enough , from start to finish she went above what was required and made our purchase smooth sailing , and even organised a great quote in getting our van from East to West.

Dianne R, South Australia
It was a pleasure to work with Vicky & her team. Vicky went above & beyond for us. We tried selling privately which was an absolute nightmare. As soon as we signed with Vicky everything was taken care of, the van was sold asap & we were extremely happy with the service we received. We would highly recommend selling your van with Find My Van.

Daphne H, New South Wales
We would like to thank Vicky & her team for selling our camper. Vicky was very professional & we appreciated the fact that all the paperwork was put together early in the process which made the sale go through easily. The truck & slide on North Star was only going to suit certain people, & that made the sale a little difficult. We would certainly recommend Find My Van.

Ben Royal Flair Piazza Purchaser
I couldn’t be happier with the van I purchased through Find My Van. I thoroughly recommend FMV to buy or sell.

Paul S, New Zealand
Amazing response times, excellent knowledge and very personable.

Neil H, New South Wales
Vicky was awesome to work with and sold my van quickly. The whole process was easy and well organised.

Bruce, South Australia
Managed to sell our van at a good price in a short time. Lovely people to deal with and everything went smoothly.

Jo, New South Wales Purchaser
What a great experience purchasing our new van with Vicky’s professional help & support. I’ve never used a broker before and was initially a bit nervous, but those nerves were quickly gone.
Vicky quickly got a sense of what we wanted and what we didn’t want. She did the searching, saved us so much time and money, and found an absolute gem of a van that is perfect for us. I highly recommend Find my Van

Ray S, Queensland
Friendly, seamless and great peace of mind to deal with. I’ll be back for the next van!

Joanna, South Australia
Vicky was amazing. She was so professional and selling our van to one of her clients was hassle free and reliable. It was an absolute pleasure and are so grateful that Vicky provided us with a stress free safe and dependable service.

Rob, South Australia
Vicky at Find My Van was very helpful, professional and overall did a fantastic job in selling my Stoney Creek Van for me. I would most certainly recommend find my van for anyone either looking to purchase or sell a second hand caravan.

Lynne, South Australia
I made contact with caravan dealers and was either advised “No room” or quoted excessive fees and charges to sell our caravan on consignment.
I began researching for a reliable option to sell our caravan and was excited to find a caravan broker. Vicky is very professional and thorough in all aspects of buying and selling a caravan. Distance is not a barrier to transacting. Her communication is brilliant.
Presale and pre-purchase requirements are thorough including security and safety checks. We will recommend Find My Van to folk wishing to buy or sell a caravan.
