Just in the middle of taking possession of our new to us 3yr old Carthago, the dealer tells me they have as much motorhomes going out, if you bought one from them tomorrow it’s a six week wait until they can get it through the workshop to be prepared for customers due to the volume of new and used sales, so not too sure they’re seeing the market slow down.

Wow and I’ve heard other reports of dealer sales slowing down drastically?

Which dealer are you using?

That was Dicksons of Perth, I was surprised as well, but in saying that it’s taken 4 weeks to get ours from agreeing to buy it to picking it up tomorrow hopefully.

Then again, they maybe only have one guy in their workshop 😁

Well travelled
New prices may not rise as fast but I can't see current prices dropping, too many dealers would be at risk of failing. Notice they only talk about UK manufactured vehicles, but what are the big manufacturers on the continent going to do ? is it a different situation over there ??

I’ve seen a few deals on various carthagos up to 20k off some and knaus £5-10k off the crafter 650 MEG’s in some instances🤷‍♂️
