Hi Jonathan, just retired and am looking at your very informative videos. Thank you 🙏 My question is we will be spending a large amount of our time touring Europe would it be safer and more beneficial to buy a left hand drive? Regards Richard.

It would be 💯% nicer to drive a lhd in Europe. However, they are slightly tricky to sell in the uk once you have decided to move on from it.

Yes it will, but it will be more difficult to sell the lhd in the future as they don't sell too well on the used market in the uk.

Currently looking for a vehicle to drive the Pan American highway. This one is really nice and seems to have plenty of storage space as well. Especially since it's just for the two of us. Duly noted on the list. Thanks for the tour. Will be checking out more of your content.

Very nice but you’d think as the rolls Royce of motor homes you’d have electric internal dividing door including fly screen front door, nicer stitched leather seating, better coffee machine maybe positioned where the freezer is and relocate the freezer elsewhere. Also all electric blinds, can’t believe at this level you still have to manually close blinds… also you want a jet wash extendable tap in the toilet rather than have to use a toilet brush. The main bed should be lowe and be walk around and the tvs should be electric pop up or out not manual. The bathroom should have a matched luxury marble look sink rather than the standard bland white and matched with a bit of colour on the shower wall panels and matching toilet seat not cheap plastic white. Should also maybe have the star light ceiling as in roll Royce cars for final improvement. Back of vehicle could do with making a bit more luxury as that looked quite bland also. The dining table looks quite cheap so maybe matching pattern on table and darker inlay pattern on edge. Different colour mood lighting throughout with dimmer. Balancing auto and manual option as well which you can do by button or in your iPhone app. More side lights along side of outside of vehicle. Lose the cupboards above the bed as well as it not needed and better with higher space above head, put reading lights instead and touch phone charger. Better wooden flooring with inlay pattern around edge to match dining table. Nicer looking steering wheel maybe with cream and brown as in maybach cars with matching dashboard. Finally (maybe) motion detector and recording cameras built in on both sides and back with little cctv in operation notice on each side. Also ring door bell at door entrance. Oh and star link system for perfect Wi-Fi connection. Maybe a bespoke large umbrella built in near to the entrance doorway same as rolls Royce have and an external large tv that is hidden behind a panel for when you have bbqs etc.

It's a starting point. They will never agree with your first offer. But altleast they will know it'll have to be more than a £500 discount at this point. Believe me, I have worked for lots of dealerships and know how it works. This is for a 35k motorhome, however you may get that deal ( -6k ) on a new motorhome, especially if it's a new 2024 model that they have had sitting around for a while and they want to focus on their new 2025 models. In fact, I would recommend having a look at the discounts available on the unregistered 2024 models that are available atm. I have seen vans with 15k off of the rrp. (This was on a high-end, luxury mh, but still an amazing deal). I do understand what you are getting at though, and it may be laughed off as an unreasonable offer on a 35k van, but it's a starting point and a good one at that 🤑. Thank you for taking the time to comment though, as i know you have been following me for a while and I appreciate the feedback.

You rarely get claw backs on finance do you? I am just saying it is a good way to negotiate, I understand that as a dealer to hear this is tough. However, I am just trying to help ppl negotiate as many ppl struggle.

A great tip I would give anyone wanting to buy, before doing so, contact other dealers & motorhome buyers, asking them what they would give you for the very same mh you're interested in buying. State a similar mileage, same year, condition, extras etc. Their offer will give you a good idea what the selling dealer has in it. Only, be prepared to be shocked !

Excellent Video that'll help many. If I can add. I've personally done 12 months of solid research on this very subject ever since we got robbed by two seperate dealers in the buying (crazy high price) & selling (crazy low price only two years later) of our motorhome. All in all most dealers earn a fortune on each sale...& used ones generally shockingly so. Here are some factual examples talking to selling owners, in dealers buy in price, V their advertised & actual selling price. £13,000/£21,950 £18,500/£32,500 £21,000/£38,000 £21,500/£36,995 £44,000/£62,500 Some sold with warranty, some without. I'd say buyer beware, take your time in searching, find a good solid dealer (with great reviews only) & who's genuinely on your side, who'll strike a deal for the mh you want. Or consider buying privately once you know the layout you're after, also consider having a proper inspection carried out, especially if you've any doubts on said mh. Dealers have had it far too good for too long & it's time buyers only bought from them if realistic prices are asked & deals done.

@theonemotorhome Even in all the research I've personally done over the past 12months, there's always someone else I talk to that sets a new low in their experiences with dealers. Only this week I spoke with an elderly couple who purchased a brand new £80k motorhome only 8 months ago. Sadly one of them has since become very poorly & so went back to the selling dealer to try & sell. The dealer offering them £48k, yet would be certainly re selling it for £70k. This kind of dealer practice of which has been going on for too long, is disgusting. You've video here, ought to be shared far & wide. Only in my research the consumer has been taken advantage of more so.
