For van to convert, I ended up buying a "new/100miles" van. The diff was $2000 vs 100K Miles/3-4years.

[@paulashby4952]

I'm sure prices will fall over the next year or so. This will be caused by owners who have bought new or nearly new in 2020 and 2021 selling up. Travel restrictions will be lifted this year and the return to work is well underway. Foreign travel will again be the norm for many people. Those new motor home owners will see their expensive vehicles sitting on the drive with less time to use them. Loans and payment plans will put the squeeze on too. The luxury on the drive will go. The vehicles will be sold back to the market in large numbers. A few new motorhome owners will be converted and keep them but most will be sold. There will be excess supply over demand and prices will fall.

[@willewinky]

I sincerely hope prices will fall. I get my pension lump sum in there years and am hoping to buy a motorhome with my money.

[@marcfurniss7673]

I think so too. Sold my VW T5 at a profit after owning for past 2 years. Will look to buy motor home when prices dip and more choice for sale

[@danielr82]

I'm sure they will too... He keeps saying things like "it was 35k, would have been 25k last year, but due to demand it's 33k this year, - you haven't lost a lot of money" But it's only £35k this year because of the demand. in two years it'll be a £23k van and we'll be hearing people talk about the bottom dropping out of the market loosing £12k from the price of a a second hand vehicle in 24 months etc.

[@mac148]

Yep all the new owners will get fed up paying insurance mot etc for it to sit on the drive

[@VooDooMaGicMan81]

Fake environmentalism, and the 'carbon footprint' related bs will follow on from this pandemic. No one other than the rich will be flying abroad around 2030. This is a conspiracy, but not a theory - all the information is available to view yet the general public are hypnotized on local and national affairs. Also inflation will soar, so if you think prices will drop in the next few years you're in for serious disappointment. Parts for my small business are far more expensive already, this isn't 'going back to normal' guys, I promise you.

[@DolittleCampers]

This video is cracking and will definitely make people see the initial outlay in a different light. Thanks for showing us around and the pricing

[@flybobbie1449]

I was amazed 2 half years ago. I was on my way to buy my 2012 34k mileage 5k Berlingo which had a lift top conversion. But std. interior. I passed a motorhome sales depot just down the road from home, 2013 Berlingo, inside had after market camper interior, lift roof they wanted 12k for it, madness.

[@TheMotorhomeMan]

That is the way it is going Fly

[@monty_sultana]

Lol paid 600 for a berlingo

[@debrad400]

I’d rather spend a bit more for a brand new one than pay inflated price for a second hand one. Also the price you’re quoting- is that what they’re up for or is that what they sell for. The bubble is going to burst soon. I’ve 60k to spend on a van but I won’t buy till it all this nonsense stops.

[@alrightdave6135]

But the best new vans are all sold out and have long waiting lists

[@TheMotorhomeMan]

It is prices that we have found selling for on the internet.

[@stephenbrown9400]

I would negotiate the price down second hand. If new would do the same or ask to split the dealer margin 50/50.

[@strickostricko]

@@stephenbrown9400 Yes and he’d tell you where to go and sell to the people queuing up to buy any old tat and are paying top money.

[@Smokeysbandit]

@@TheMotorhomeMan so not actual prices that have been paid. I would never pay the asking price for anything and if I was not offered what I consider is a fair discount I would just walk away.

[@peterc2248]

Informative video. Confirms my decision to hold off and wait for the market correction in late 2022 or 2023. I think there'll be enough low mileage examples on the market then that I'll get a decent deal especially as I'll have the cash available to sellers needing to fund their overseas holidays :-)

[@TheMotorhomeMan]

👍

[@mbd6054]

Good thinking. Buy when everyone else wants to sell.

[@gbwildlifeuk8269]

Peter C best of luck but i think you'll be disappointed. Before the scramble for campers they held their prices. I started in the 90s and nothing has changed. 10K will buy you a wreck, 20K a middle of the road average. If you want a decent van its anything from 25 to 60K plus. They always hold their price and the second hand market has always been high priced. Ive often been asked why so expensive new. Buy a new caravan, say 4 berth good make, around 25K. Buy a new car to tow it another 25K. Now build both into a camper, how can it be cheaper than 50K?

[@mclucky7086]

Thanks again Jason. What a terrific insight into today's market. The price comparisons are so interesting. That auto Adria hit the spot for me but I was impressed with the condition of every van shown. And that mate is a credit to you and your business.

So as someone who was just looking for his first Motorhome from what I have seen here this is definitely the wrong time to buy.. I need to wait for some normality and holidays abroad etc to start flourishing and then the bottom will drop out of the prices..Very good informative information here.

I’m with you on that mate. Me and the wife retire in a few years and we are really interested in getting a motor home…but not at these crazy prices, we will wait until the prices get back to normal thanks.

[@stephennutkin2477]

IF we went back to some sort of normality and people could get abroad without restrictions I wonder how many people who are new to motor/camper vans because of Covid will keep their vans or find that they are a liability due to the fact that they use them less want to return to foreign holidays. If dealers are inundated with vans with less buyers would there be a major price drop within the new and second hand market ?.

[@stephenbrown9400]

Agree there. Some owners will develop the 'squeaky bum' feeling when looking to offload their vehicles.

Some where down the line there is always going to be a price correction. Great comment Stephen 👍

This is a brilliant video motorhome man, it will save a lot of searching around for anyone looking for a used motorhome, wondering if they are a good buy and maybe if it is worth getting a loan for. You have covered a wide range of models and ages, succinctly without unnecessary waffle and made a very interesting video. And no annoying background music either! I have been buying and using motorhomes a lot for about 30 years and have always thought they are a much better buy than a car.

Hi my friend. If you decide to go make sure Jason is there, I drove for over an hour to get there on Saturday.

[@richardgreenwood3355]

Price is just one of the reasons I switched from motor-caravans to touring caravans. The last motor-caravan I bought was a long while back, but it cost me £11000 for a 10 year-old van that had originally been around £15000. I was the one who took the hit in value when the rust appeared! I decided then that there is just too much value tied up in an 'old' motor vehicle that is destined for mechanical faults or MOT failure! I've been towing for 17 years now. No regrets yet.

[@hybrid6692]

I agree to a point but of course if you don't have a suitable towing vehicle as i don't then the outlay overall is greater

[@hybrid6692]

I looked extensively over 2 years ago to getting something like an Autosleeper Symbol , i was struggling then to find the money for a good used example maybe around 2003 ish , i wanted the 2002 onwards 2.0 litre HDI engine much nicer than the old 1.9. Now it is a totally unrealistic dream , because of demand everything is overpriced for what it is , i've given up on the dream .....

[@carlbriggs4686]

Its called dealer greed, inflating prices because of demand, disgraceful.

[@CosgroveNotts]

Lots of stagnant money

[@f1kwa399]

I bought a 59 plate Autosleeper Dorset ES in May 2012 with 3000 miles in “as new” condition for £25k. New it was £48k but the seller had only paid about £42k for it. I sold it a year later for £26.5k and was happy, I wish I’d have kept it, how times change!

[@TheMotorhomeMan]

Only for hindsight Ken

[@jolyonlacey6930]

very informative video. However when you take inflation into account , the depreciation is actually bigger than the absolute number. eg if the van is 15 years old and cost say £30k new, then £30k 15 years ago was worth a lot more then. you need to apply inflation depreciation of the capital if you say average inflation is 2%over 15 years then the deprecation of the capital is 37% so the actual 'new price' ie what 35k is worth today. is 35x1.37=48k so the 'real' deprecation is say 48-22 =£26k if its worth £22k now

[@stephengolding2303]

I've got a 2016 rollerteam had it 2 & half years and a dealer has offered me 3 grand more than I paid for it just for the van and that's not as a trade in! But it's like everything in demand if I was to upgrade the new was has gone up by 10 grand! I'll stay with what I've got!

My own tuppence worth is that if the government continue with fazing out diesel vehicles and promoting electric there will be less petrol stations around and those who do sell diesel will be in cities/ large towns to cater for commercial vehicles, also I think the price of diesel will be very high and “ road tax “ for diesel vehicles will be extortionate.

A 12 year old vehicle is classed as "end of life", I can't believe people are paying 30k for them at that age. Coachbuilts that age are going to be gently rotting away under the skin even if they have only got 30k miles on the clock.

What about the fact that the same amount of money today as 10 years ago buys half as much, so you lost 100% in depreciation of your money....

[@TheMotorhomeMan]

Not if you sell it for the same price you sold it for

Very interesting Jason!

[@TheMotorhomeMan]

Thank's Andy 👍

[@peem1244]

Great video lads, interesting insight into costs/resale. Keep up the good work. :)

Much appreciated! Pedro 👍

What's the point in buying a second hand motorhome, For a bit more money, you might as well pay for a brand new one

[@natkingcol909]

I'd hazard a guess that the lead time on a new one would be about a year, maybe longer...

[@TheMotorhomeMan]

You are right there Traffic

[@TheMotorhomeMan]

There is a long wait Ian

[@c11yan]

Great video - confirmed what I thought about prices vs new. Was going to upgrade to a mhome 10 years old but may as well buy new. Nearly bought an new Itineo sb740 for £55k 18 months ago... still worth that if not more now.

[@TheMotorhomeMan]

Glad it was helpful!

[@ArtyVanHoming]

[@TheMotorhomeMan]

Good on you Stan

[@michaelhorner2722]

[@TheMotorhomeMan]

You are welcome! Thank's for watching Michael 👍

[@phill.p]

Very informative, do you see a crash in price once everything opens up again?

[@TheMotorhomeMan]

Not for at least a year and half Phillip 👍

If I could stand having my brother with me for a few days then the autotrail would do it for us both and my dog and cat. Even when we were younger and the both of us had motor bikes my brother was up dressed and away by 7am but I preferred a brew first, anyhoo as you Jason know the average bridge height is 11ft 6 and I'm paranoid about having to take bloody awful detours and maybe it's all in my mind but I'd imagine as beautiful as the family motorhomes are I'd be doing a lot of detours but like be said I'll even post a fiver of my brother's money to you if say nice things about Kevin for a whole video report

Hi interesting video I presume that the prices your quoting are what you are selling these vans for and not the price you purchased them for. Is it not true as with cars that private sellers don’t get as much for a van as traders do at point of sale.

[@TheMotorhomeMan]

They are the selling prices people are selling on the internet
