Majestic 196....Y/N

Hi peeps we went to look at this today(link below) and loved it...so we left a 48hr refundable deposit.
Was really happy till I googled elddis- Magestic 196 and all I see is bad reviews and crap build quality, Damp issues, uncaring dealers...now I can actually fell my nuts starting to shrink ...have we made a mistake...please advise...its a lot of money to end up with a piece of rubbish.
Mark.

Hi
  • That van was £52000 new, dont know what you have paid
  • as elsewhere,its 6 years from new warranty for the 2nd owner
  • I damp checked my 2020 Elddis at 6 months, independent dealer, on my own volition, and it uncovered 30% damp on back wall. ( faulty factory installation of bike rack) . Fixed under warranty
  • Be aware that some elements are only warrantied for 1 year from new ( Microwave for example)
  • Assume that the dealer is lying at all opportunity, you wont then be disappointed
  • Get EVERYTHING in writing, and a “stamp” in a service book is not enough for Elddis to honour the warranty. IF it has had its first year hab check ( done by the dealer) you need a copy of the internal invoice to itself
  • ANY OF THE ABOVE MISSING…….WALK AWAY
Sorry if it sounds cynical, but if you think it will be the same dealer-experience as buying a 50k car…it wont

Thanks for the advice ...as for the price there's no where I could get a basically new Elddis Magestic 196 with all the spec like auto climate control, heated seats, the 160 bhp engine on too of all the usual spec for 52k ..if anyone can send me a link 🙂
