Whilst having our car checked at Simpsons of Great Yarmouth we had time to look around the motorhomes and conduct a comparison of two good used motorhomes priced at £33,000.

Great vlog again. I too can't resist looking in motorhomes when I'm at a motorhome centre. Just been down to Brownhills to have the batteries checked - two new leisure batteries had to be fitted, Ouch!! Reverse camera broke but hopefully, that will be covered on the warranty🤞

Great motorhome comparison TFS brought back memories of our RV Relocation we did in April from Toronto to Vancouver the RV was valued at £110,000 guess that’s why we rent for two weeks rather than buy 😂😂😂 but it was beautiful just like home from home 🏡 . Enjoy your week Norm and Tina 👍🙂🍷🍺

Nice one Trev, I like the interior on the first one. So tempted to swap my BMW X5 for a motor home, and tow Suzanne's car behind it 😁

@PoshcatsCamping 4 жыл бұрын

If you are in the buying mood, take lots of time and check out layout, layout and layout. Then van weights and for towing too. Your car may have a crash zone on the front that will not accommodate an A-frame but you can always use a trailer subject to weights. A lot to consider but a great lifestyle for those with time to enjoy it. Thanks for watching our videos we really appreciate your loyalty 👍🏻😉 Trev

Great review guys, very informative, could do with the milage of each to assist the comparison though.

@PoshcatsCamping 4 жыл бұрын

Good point made. I could tell by the wear on the front seats and the cab that most of the vans we looked at were fairly low mileage. Although the mileage effects the value of a Motorhome it’s not as influential as with the value of a car. Thanks for watching and your comments too. 👍🏻 Trev

Ward Nine these vans were all very low mileage and in most cases are under 20,000 miles. In some of the videos I did include mileage. Unlike cars, mileage is not the main influence to Motorhome price. Thanks for watching 🙂

Towing a car with Motorhome. It might be easier and cheaper to Tow a caravan with a car.

@PoshcatsCamping 4 жыл бұрын

In terms of cost there is probably not much in it and when towing a car you are limited to which car you can have just like towing a caravan. The deciding factor for us was that we can go most places in our motorhome on road trips, stopping for one or two nights at a time in pub car parks, CLs, Campsites or Off Grid by the roadside (wild camp). Then by taking a small car we can park up at any of these places and explore the nooks and crannies like you do when you tow a caravan. So you have more choice and don’t always have to tow. It’s horses for courses and there’s still not many people that “get it” and see caravanning as the best option. We choose to have a second more comfortable car for when we are at home. That’s where the extra cost came in for us as the tow car is not suitable for long journeys 🙂 Thanks for watching and your comments. Best wishes, Trev.
