Adria Twin Motorhome I thought they were sought after ?

[PeterCarole29]

Are these models not sought after now at an age of 2007 reasonable mileage and at a price of £16,500 mot till Jan 2026
Has the market dropped that much
I haven’t had one person look at my friends van
Are others finding things aren’t selling

 

[Minxy]

If you put a link on here for his van we might be able to advise why.

New ones weren’t available without a long wait a year or two back, but seem to be quite a few at dealers now for £80k plus. Maybe the market for older ones isn’t strong? If you follow the FB Twin pages, most of the chat is about newish vans. Also, lots of sales are younger folks upgrading from VW vans.

Yes I think the demand outstripping the supply chain has gone and that ship has definitely sailed ! There’s a plethora of vehicles on the forecourt’s at greatly reduced prices, you wouldn’t have seen that a year or two ago !

Two years ago we traded our MH in for a new caravan (I know a sin). The dealer still has it for sale. Hasn't budged on the price.

Is that the one which says “ Needs some jobs doing” depending on what they are that statement might be putting potential buyers off.
What jobs? How easy to do, cost wise etc etc?

 

[Lenny HB]

Still plenty of money about so perhaps not so many interested in an 18 year old van.

I will adjust the advert
It needs a new bathroom tap or the microswitch fixed
Paint is not great on bonnet and fron wings
But everything else is good

You could very well be right

 

[Grummyb]

Ive just looked at the advert and your 18K but this thread says 16.5k so maybe you need to drop the price on the ad to 16.5

 

[Jim]

Photos of the bathroom?

It's rather confusing as, on the link that Jim put up, it's both £16.500 at the top and £18, 000 ono, at the bottom?

 

[PeterCarole29]

I have just altered it on the add a minute ago I will have a look and see if it automatically did his link as well

It’s altered itself by the looks of it but Thankyou for pointing it out

Looks ok to me for the money

Yes engine is sound doesnt use oil or water no oild leaks tyres all great ,Just dont understand why no one has even been round to look at it

 

[Boldly]

Is it advertised elsewhere?
Most on here probably already have a van or are looking for something a bit newer.
Personally the transverse bed would be a no no.

 

[CRD]

Maybe potential buyers need finance, or the confidence of a warranty, even at that price.

I tend to agree, personally I wouldn’t want to pay that kind of money for an 18 year old van .
The van itself would be worth a few hundred pounds add a premium as it’s a Motorhome and I think £10 k is still too much , it amazes me what people think Motorhomes / campers are worth

I completely disagree, I'm always horrified to read of the posts where people pay 150+k for a motorhome and only get to Chartres before breaking down in limp mode and a dash full of lights and recovery home.

I think there's lots of life left in that Adria

Me too, Adria Twin is a recognised well thought out conversion not some DIY van

 

[scotzsue]

Nice van was on our shortlist before getting our first.
Big worry for me would be the paint, got a price for our Mizar and got a shock, that was about 5 years ago

Nice van and good price don’t listen to the naysayers. Rust is an issue on a van this age so check the sills carefully from underneath with a screwdriver!!!

I’m saying this with a smile
You are an expert on gas but your thoughts on £10 grand is bollo3ks
