Just looking ;)
Hi from Kent.

Dan here.

After visiting the Caravan and Motorhome show at NEC this month, we have decided not to upgrade our recently sold tourer after all, but to go MH instead.

Now need to pick the brains of the forum experts ;) for pros and cons.

Must haves:
  • End fixed island bed
  • Automatic gearbox
Desires:
  • Separate loo to shower cubicle
  • Decent audio/nav system
  • Sun canopy/Awning
And for those that know, these have caught our eyes and ticked some of the boxes, so probably what we're going for, although there may be others.
  1. Bailey Adamo 75 4i
  2. Roller team Zefiro 696
  3. Auto Trail F-Line F74
Would prefer to go new obviously, but budget limit is £65-70k ish

Thanks so much in advance for any info, we look forward to updating our profile soon.

Dan & Jo

hi and welcome,

the priorities of choosing a motorhome are without doubt:-

layout, layout. layout
then
payload, payload, not forgetting di you need / have a C1 license so over 3.5T is open to you.
then
whats available for your budget.

Carado and sunlight both do that layout. Plenty of chausons too. Autotrail and swift also, if you are up for the challenge.

Hello....having watched the market over the last 18 mths (in both France and the UK)...with that budget, I'd be looking at stuff quite a bit more expensive and haggle hard, and walk away when the sales staff tut and shake their head...they may well call you back. You're likely to get a "£75k' motorhome for £65k
