Looking at todays MMM and the prices for the latest new motorhomes,do you like me think the companies producing these are taking the Mick,The increases from 2 to 3 years ago are about 20%.I thought £50.000 for a motorhome was over the top but now it looks cheap.

German vans normally average around 3% per year and bigger discounts were available on this years models.

We have bought the last 3 vans in Belguim, saved about £25k over UK prices on the new van helped by the far higher trade in value, received £12k more on my old van over what UK dealers were offering and a few k more than I could have sold it for privately in the UK. Also took out most of the risk on the exchange rate.

The exchange rate change over 2 years has added about 16% to imports from the eurozone.

It's a fair point you make but by shopping around you can get some very good deals. We've had to travel a good distance for our new van but in doing so we've saved a small fortune (many thousands).

 

That being said some of those figures quoted by MMM are slightly off the mark so the only way to get a true price is to knock on as many dealer doors as possible.

 

All the best,
