bjp Posted March 22, 2007 Share Posted March 22, 2007 Considering part exchanging Auto Sleeper Nuevo for new Orian Zeta. Global,Hook,Hampshire are offering 3 Zetas on ebay & have made a tempting deal by phone.Anyone out there have anything good/bad to say about Orian and/or Global dealership?

Bazza454 Posted March 22, 2007 Share Posted March 22, 2007 Orian motorhomes are just badge engineered Autosleepers, generally good build quality but overpriced.My question would be why would anyone think of buying a new £30k+ motorhome on E Bay, nothing wrong with E Bay as such, it's a good tool for buying small value items or selling things that you no longer need.Global Motorhomes have only got a 95.5% positive rating on E Bay, which is not good, therefore I would be cautious.

Guest JudgeMental Posted March 22, 2007 Share Posted March 22, 2007 Sold my camper via contact made from advertising on Ebay in November 2006 Its hard to beat for instant exposure at a good price but you need your wits about you and it pays to be cautious - just like any sale Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bjp Posted March 31, 2007 Author Share Posted March 31, 2007 Thanks for the advice. Last week I traded my Nuevo with Global for a new Orian Zeta, but NOT via ebay. The price exceeded our hopes & Global were fantastic, even bringing a Zeta to Leeds to do the deal (altho we had to drive down to Hook to complete the deal). The new Boxer is a revelation - improved driving visibility, turning circle, suspension etc. Whatever will I do now I have Bridgestone tyres instead of the (in)famous Michelin Camping! The inside is familar Nuevo style but with updated fridge, cooker, washroom etc. The new gas arrangement was a surprise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest starspirit Posted March 31, 2007 Share Posted March 31, 2007 Why not ring the dealer and ask if you can swap your new wheels for your old wheels if the tyres were good and they will fit? We did this once when updating a Talisman having just bought 4 new expensive tyres and the dealer was perfectly happy to do it for us foc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
b6x Posted March 31, 2007 Share Posted March 31, 2007 I wouldn't class a feedback score of 95.5% "not good". It's not excellent, but definately better than good - especially if you read the (only two) negatives. One is from a seller that didnt receive payment, and the other is from someone who probably has a cause for complaint. The rest of the positives far outweigh the one concerning negative.

I'm afraid if I was spending £30k on a product from E-Bay, I would ensure that the seller had a 100% positive response, nothing less. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
