In today's Motorhome Vlog we are looking at a Luxury Motorhome that was described to us as in excellent condition inside & out.
We were planning on selling this one off our pitch until we realised the state of it and decided that we wouldn't put our name anywhere near this Motorhome.
This Used Motorhome to retail would be somewhere close to the £70,000 mark but having seen inside let us know in the comments if you would buy it at that price.
Welcome to our first Motorhome & Campervan Blog - Motorhome Diaries Vlog.
In our first Motorhome Diaries blog we talk about Google,KZbin and Vloging and how it as evolved.

I spent 400 quid on a habitation and mechanical check on a second hand motorhome . Best 400 quid I've ever spent . Saved me buying a 25k lemon full of damp on the back end . Well worth the money 💰

like others I think this has been hired out - we have always taken care of our motorhomes, at the end of the day, its our biggest asset after the family home - the last one we sold to a big dealership that travelled to see it, did the damp test and gave us what we were asking, also apologised for not taking his shoes off on the prisitine carpet, as he left a mark on it ;-) belated birthday greetings

A different but Honest appraisal about motorhomes. It reminds us all, that it's good business to not too chase after bad business. I allways believe when buying a home that you can feel if its a happy loved one or not. The motorhome is your home. The same applies. Great video. The lesson in life sprinkled with some working wisdom. Thank you.

FANTASTIC AND WELL DONE SIR. So may dealers say I am selling for someone else so no or 3 month guarantee when a consumer act states, if something goes wrong within six months it is deemed to have been there when you purchased it and therefore should be put right by the dealer anything that is sold on a forecourt, even if not using the companies, paperwork is still guaranteed. I absolutely congratulate you for making that point and it really does show. What a good company you are

The pilote did have a problem with the hab step. Also many like our one had a new floor fitted. The mastic in the shower is acrilic based and didn't adhere or flex very well. The I'd media unit is ot fit for purpose and the tablet never works. Condensation is a problem in the garage. We have a 2020 pilote fgj automatic. I re masticed the shower, as said had a new floor fitted ( you would never know) dealer fitted a pioneer head unit and tablet under warrenty. We live in the van fulltime and is as new inside and outside. We looked at many makes, £10000 more expensive, one even had a two inch screw comming through the head lining. Two others, brand new plus £100000 had spongy floors.

95% of this looks like shoddy build quality IMO. Scratchable wood trim in a luggage area, a shower screen hook made of a material harder than the screen itself, water leaks, rubber trim that pops out during use, seat trim that falls off with horrible protruding screws… An outdoor recreational vehicle shouldn’t need to be treated with kid gloves - robustness should be designed in.

Still she runs like a dream and has never let us down. Kepp looking and view loads of vans,private sale or dealer ...😊😊😊

I always told my staff, I opened a Double Glazing company, that is a customer finds one thing they will find two, tree or four even though the two, three and four is not a problem and they are seething things that are not there it does not matter you have lost there trust so if ever something does not go right and let’s be fair not all 100% of jobs will go right always always point it out to the customer first and let them know what we will do about it. My best customers with the most recommendations with a customers that had a small problem because we always pointed it out first and sorted it out when they recommended us. They say if it goes wrong they’ll deal with it which is what we did. That motorhome is complete trash. What a shame.

A ripping yarn! Cannot understand how your owner would be so careless, but I'm surprised that the damp issues are so extensive. I thought Pilote was one of the better brands,, but I have noticed hat even the German brands are not what they used to be. Looking at the vans at the NEC last October I was shocked by the poor finish on the latest vans - especially coachbuilt models. Lots of sharp edges and tacky cupboards etc.. I bought a 69 plate Murvi Pimento from Murvi six months ago. Absolutely immaculate, and Murvi build quality has not diminished. BTW I would never touch a leaking van with a bargepole. I had one a few years ago and the problem just got worse and worse. I like your no nonsense approach and entertaining style.

Its been hired out for, dunno, £80 a day., for a couple of years or more. The owners have hired it out when they weren't using it I guess, then had a few bad lettings that really damaged the van and are now trying to sell it on. I think knowing the mileage would give the game away. Another good video guys, keep up the good work. BTW are you starting a new show called 'Campers and Cash' ?!!

I do agree that simple things should be sorted but things like the cooker grommet cost a fortune relatively for one or two wheresas you can buy say 100. The fridge. I had to have a new one fitted and it cost £2700 fitted, a Dometic. ( based on quality and functionality it must have cost £300 to make ).The shelves and door inserts are MADE TO BREAK and Dometic just rob customers and don’t care less about the theft as we have to have a fridge which fits. The part in the old fridge isn’t carried after 10:years so there’s one solution. My 18 month old fridge has cracked door shelves despite me taking care and protecting the corners and the old ones went to the tip but were perfect . Didn’t fit in the new one of course. It has doors which open both ways but guess what? Unnecessary , annoying and will break and constantly open whilst driving and if ajar the alarm is so quiet you don’t hear it. ( it doesn’t turn up). If customers weren’t ripped off we’d be more responsive to criticism. Some of the vans just aren’t worth the money when new as they are crap compared to say a 15 year old van. COVID added £20k to Motorhomes for bugger all so you make your money and can afford to mend these bits more than customers can. I drive a 2007 Rapido 7099F which is fabulous. STILL LOVE THE CHANNEL THOUGH🎉

The only thing I would run away from is the water ingress I recon it had a hit in the side and this has moved the outer badly panels splitting the sealant all over the place also loosening things. It can never be a nice 70k van again. So yes send it back with a no thank you. Someone will get burned with this and end up with a lemon and a seventy thousand loan to pay off . That’s why you go to trusted dealers and a bit more for a well checked vehicle

This is what happens when you rent your van out. I get asked all the time why dont you make some cash and rent it out when you are not using it.

Water ingress is always a problem but the silly things missing or broken can be replaced. I wouldn't buy it for 70k though.

I've seen a few things described as 'excellent condition' which I would describe as disgusting. Unfortunately everybody has different standards. All I can say if they think that is excellent I would hate to see what they would describe as 'poor condition'.

I think it’s crazy that people don’t look after their motorhomes.Regarding water ingress. We had terrible issues with new Swift caravans leaking showers leaking sink and so on. The build quality in newer vans is awful even the materials used are of poor quality. Like you said older vans are built with better quality materials.

What a shame it’s in such a state it’s more a restoration project for some one to undertake rather than a 70k van would I buy it not even for a restoration project I would be checking the chassis by the door with the miss matched lino might have had a side impact could explain the damaged step
