One of the less inspired models Lesney produced,
nevertheless the Caravan (31e) has had a very long life in the range.
Compared to any of the other half-dozen or so caravans they made this
one is really dull and dumpy. However it was first a Lesney product
released in 1977 and was still in the range when Lesney shut down in
1983. Since that date at least ten new versions have been released by
the subsequent owners of the Matchbox brand. The Lesney versions are
white with a blue, orange or yellow plastic door and a sticker stripe
along the lower sides in blue or orange.
All versions are similarly priced and values as you
would expect are low.
