Vintage Glamour on Tour: Coventry Knight 49 Classic Caravan

I spotted some Facebook friends cooing over this amazing caravan and just had to share. What an amazing space!

The owner of this Coventry Knight 49 (1949 being the year it was made) caravan has listed it on Ebay with starting bid of £8,000.

The seller tells us “These caravans traded for over £2000 new in 1949, the equivalent to 3 brand new houses in the same era. This goes a long way to explaining why so few exist these days. They were truly built to last but came at a price tag very few could afford.”
