Help locating large dealer (1 Viewer)

[Sdrawde]

We've been to a few dealers within an hour's drive from home (Manchester) but they don't have more than about 20 used vans, so I'm hoping someone can recommend a large dealer with many many motorhomes we can look at.

I've tried googling it, but virtually all dealers claim they are the biggest and best

I'm thinking between midlands and York if possible, but would travel further if needed.

Thanks in advance. The Edwards crew.

There’s a large motorhome show coming up at Malvern where dealers from all over the country will be displaying their vans. Lots of opportunity to check out various models.

You need to expand your range.
The advantage for you is that probably a third of the UK dealers are in the middle of England between York and Watford

For us lot, Darn Sarf, we have to go Oop t'north, to look at Motorhomes.
(Even north of the passport control at the Watford Gap!!)

For us it was a 350 mile round trip to pick up our motorhome having looked at it twice, so well over 1,000 miles in total, excluding all the others we looked at.

It may be worth waiting for the motorhome shows at the NEC in October and March to see lots of shiney new motorhomes to get some ideas.
Or.
Better still go to some of the Warner shows in the summer and take a look not only at the displays, but also wander around the vast camp site.
Once you have a make and model in mind many owners are prepared to let you have a quick look and then will talk for hours about the good and bad issues of their particular make and model.

Just remember 'mine' is always the best one out there!

Go European based in Cannock has a fair few new and used motorhomes for sale. You can checkout their website to see if it's worth a visit.

Have you been to Motorlands at Lytham ? They have plenty of stock, most inside in the dry and they let you wander round. Have dealt with them twice and been treated well.

Another this way is Red Lion who appear from their website to have upped their game. I wasn’t at all impressed on previous visits but that was two years ago.

One thing to remember is that dealers only tend to sort problems on those they have sold. Travelling a long way has an element of risk !

One dealer. In fact our closest is very rarely mentioned on here. Although I have never had any dealings with them I have visited quite a few times and they always seem very friendly and have loads of vans and I have never heard any horror stories about them.

A long way from your area, but well worth the journey, Simon Select at Select Motorhomes worth considering. A more honest and reliable dealership will be hard to find. Take a look at their website to see what they have to offer. (And no, Simon is not paying me for this recommendation. - yet !)

Doesn't have information of what level of stock they hold but you can download an Excel workbook from here that contains "all known" dealers and if they stock new / used / etc.

You can filter the data by various elements, eg city, county, etc, etc, .......
