Our friends told us their caravan dealer is closed

They tried to book their caravan in for service at the beginning of month to find it closed.
The staff turned up for work on a Monday morning and then told just before lunch to go home. Closed down. Teeside Caravans.
Having looked there are about 10 dealers that have closed in the NE. Catterick Caravans had three sites, Catterick, Birtley and York, only Catterick now open.
Did this Teeside one close because of the possible effects of the budget.
If this pattern is occurring all over the U.K. the manufacturers are going to be hit, Elddis at Consett, Swift over Hull way.
As it is caravan prices have gone through the roof in the last two years and are Noel’s doing discounted massively, like £10,000 off
Maybe the more recent closures due to the new government budget threats.
Becoming an expensive hobby now Allan, the type of car required for towing caravans and the likes is becoming far to expensive for the average Joe and Family. Even the Gov't don't know what to do, but one thing is certain, motoring is costing far to much for pleasure only. and that goes for camper vans also, previous UK Govt's have milked owning a car for too many years and years now, I have not bought petrol or diesel since May of this year when I bought a Toyota Hybrid. I read that Tax revenue on fuels has dipped in resent years. Example, My Daughter has just bought her top of the range brand new Chvroltte Groove Primer car in Dubia at a stagering £12,000, (Not sold UK) petrol is only 25p a litre with no road tax and 5 years free services and 5 years free assist. Rip off Britten!
