[@geofffoster1704]

Fabulous selection of motorhomes, great advice for anyone interested in buying a Motorhome, more vlogs like this please

[@HereWeTow]

Thank you Geoff, I am hoping to do one with caravans, I always like to have a look around.. just need to find a slot to go film at a friendly dealership! Have a good weekend 😊

[@davidsealey4178]

Another fantastic presentation Karina…Love watching your Vlogs…Very professional informative and captivating…xx

[@HereWeTow]

Thank you David, I really appreciate your kind comment ☺️

[@Steve-Hutch]

Nice one guys. Totally agree with make list and view as many as possible. We spent months looking and whittling down to just one. Or so we thought. Just when we had decided we called into a local dealer for a coffee. Mentioned to the sales person we loved this particular vehicle but too expensive. We were not aware that it had been reduced significantly. Just goes to show, always ask. Deposit went straight down. Thanks Kimberly.

[@HereWeTow]

Thank you for watching Steve, yes, that is what I call fate 😊 You know when you find the right one, you sit in it and it feels right. Enjoy your travels 👍

[@HereWeTow]

Thank you for watching..hope you are having a good week Jamie 😊

[@rubberdc]

I rather enjoyed the look interior of the second van you stepped into , like you say , the room is a lot and i particularly like the separate shower and bathroom area.

[@chrissey663]

Oooh the carthago is stunning 😍 well done both again excellent reviews thank you xx

[@HereWeTow]

Thank you for watching, the Carthago is now up there in my top 5 🤩

[@charleswotton9417]

Although I'm a caravaner but I love watching your vlogs 😊

[@HereWeTow]

Thank you Charles, next week I do have the new Elddis and Coachman caravans starting to roll out.. Swift and Bailey will start later in September 😊👍

[@anneshirley1748]

Great advice for when we get ours! Won't be one of those though, smaller van and second hand probably! Looking at the new year to buy one! Great vid! Take care xxx

[@HereWeTow]

Thank you for watching Anne, I hope you and Richard can eventually get a Motorhome.. you have certainly waited long enough!! Have a good weekend 😊

[@rubberdc]

you do have a habit of making me smile when you say such things as you can drop the bed , theres a little ladder in the back, climb on the bed and there we are , its bedtime ...🤣🤣🤣

[@HereWeTow]

Thank you for watching..I’m glad you enjoy these things..😊😊

[@waltsmith5255]

Thanks great video,

[@HereWeTow]

Thank you for watching 😊

[@iansenior9759]

A lot to pay for a box van. I find there is more room in my Bailey Phoenix 420 2 berth and the shower space is plastic lined so a wet room. Around 20k new Motorhomes are too large to park plus height restrictions at some car. Campervans with a pop up roof are a better proposition.

[@HereWeTow]

Thank you for watching and sharing your thoughts on this.. enjoy your Phoenix 😊👍

[@user-bu5si9yt5r]

Went to Camper UK when we were buying our A class. Found their Salesman very rude and not very knowledgable about his stock. It was like we were stoping him from having his lunch and he want a happy bunny about. Worst dealer though has to be TMD near Redditch. They are shockingly bad!!!

[@HereWeTow]

Thanks for sharing your experience

[@philiplewis9825]

Problem with ford is the wet belts

[@LoftechUK]

Thank you

[@HereWeTow]

Than you for watching 😊

[@onthemove301]

Did you miss the swing wall bathroom on the first motorhome? Also, for those who prefer narrower motorhomes, were there any campervan width coachbuilts available (like the Swift Ascari range)?

[@HereWeTow]

Thank you for watching, Camper UK is a dealer for Swift but they didn’t have any compact width models in the showroom. Other compact Motohromes to consider at 2.1-2.2 metre width are Bailey Alora, Auto-Trail Excel and Adria Compact. I do have content of all these further back on the channel. Carthago does a Compact but it is an integrated motorhome (A-Class).

[@rubberdc]

Is there any particular reasoning behind where the main entrance door is situated ? meaning ....could it actually start at the back end of the van ?

[@HereWeTow]

On some non fixed bed layouts the door is at the back, often with either the bathroom or kitchen. It depends on the layout as to how practical it is 😊

[@rubberdc]

Jules , the GIANT 5 year old .hahahahahaha

[@HereWeTow]

😜😂

[@stevieeffingham9314]

Lounge area with bolt upright seats?

[@HereWeTow]

Thank you for watching

[@charliehalbery5978]

Don,t understand why they cost so much, its a van at the end of the day. 🤷

[@HereWeTow]

Thank you for watching, there is quite a bit more that goes in to the production than just a base van. You have to factor in the base vehicle, the production costs, labour, materials, type approval of the vehicles, transportation across Europe to the UK, import tax for the vehicle and then once in the UK the dealer has their own profit margin to add to cover their over heads. The profit margin isn’t that much on a motorhome, as far as I know. Don’t get me wrong, I don’t support these high prices for the consumer but the manufacturers want to sell, like the dealers do, but they still need to make sure their business is financially viable. I would love a new Motohrome but I couldn’t afford one now so I appreciate how people feel who would like to buy. Have a good weekend and thanks for leaving a comment with a reasonable question 😊👍

[@DS-fo4ed]

Cod and chips cost £11.00. It’s all relative

[@ghunt9146]

Walked past the two vans that would interest me at the start of the vid . The two Romahomes! There is no need to spend a fortune.

[@user-dp2sq8kg2i]

Why are the new interiors so 70's browns & beiges, horrible, not my taste at all😕😕

[@HereWeTow]

Thanks for watching.. yes lots of browns and the other choice from other manufacturers is grey.. 😊

[@neilmick6778]

Lol this market is screwed once all the old timers on finally salary pensions pass away.

[@HereWeTow]

Thank you for watching

[@gooney71]

Just don't get motorhomes.... Still no chilling living room space, still suck on the captain seats. There's always a compromise with motorhomes, just get back to your Adria caravan and have a bit of luxury. My personal view, but not for me.

[@HereWeTow]

Thanks for watching, funny I didn’t use to get motorhomes either but right now they really work for us. I absolutely agree you loose that lounging space on an evening but equally its easy to pack up and move around and I can motorhome by myself if needs be, I couldn’t have done that with our Isonzo with my back injury. Always a compromise..😊 Have a good weekend and thanks for leaving a balanced comment 👍

[@stevenhull5025]

I could not justify spending £120, 000 on what basically is a van kitted out to live in. The annual expenses are pretty high with the cost of diesel, storage, insurance, service, habitation checks and camp site fees. Personally, I would rather drive somewhere and stay at a B&B for £100 per night which includes breakfast.
