Posted on 22/02/2021 11:00 by EmilysDadWell .... what a bunch of snobs most of these mega motorhome owners are. I forget his name, but the bloke with the £250k motorhome, also considered that owning such a MH meant that he needed to 'camp' at a place with a better clientele. And the bloke that had had eleventeen motorhomes & worked his way up to the huge thing he'd just bought. And many of the mega MHs would need some kind of HGV licence too.
Nowt so queer as folk ..... as they say. I'll stick with my caravan,

Yes, Jonathan, the entrepreneur appeared oblivious to his contradictory assertions that a Motorhome means you can go where you like , when you like; and his follow up: 'But I only stay on sites that have the same social groupings as those I mix with in normal life' [not quite verbatim, but as close as I can remember]
So I suspect that Elaine and I and our 16 year old Swifty won't have to take steps to avoid him when we are allowed to travel once again ...
'Hoi polloi and proud of it' ...

No need, there are at least two manufacturers in this country making 250K plus motorhomes, one is RS Motorhomes and the other I think is SC Sportshomes. They have both exhibited at the NEC on occasions.

I watched it. TBH, those mega MH’s didn’t really appeal to me. Impressive, yes, just not my thing, even if I had the money. I got the impression that a couple of the owners were just making the statement, “look at what I’ve got”, all about the ownership and little else.

🤔... with some elite motorhomers willing to pay £60 per night, I can see another possible name change waiting in the wings...
Site Warden to Butler - Who’s duties will include serving chilled champagne to elite members on arrival.
Whereas, the rest of us in the cheap seats, with our two wheeled boxes might get the offer of champagne, but down graded to sparking water 😂😂

Posted on 16/02/2021 11:42 byHave never owned one but do remember casually looking at SH MHs whilst at a dealers for something else and was amazed at the high price of some really quite old and in some cases quite dirty and nasty examples with £25k+ tickets on them.

Depends how long ago it was you noted prices, with the, it seems , MCs are the "in thing" at present ,prices also reflect that until you want to exchange or sell
,if as advertised the large discounts offered on some models, it is just a fraction of the mark up that dealers have

Posted on 22/02/2021 14:42 by cyberyachtLet's be honest, those behemoths are too big to be able to usefully "go anywhere". I suppose that is to a degree offset by the Lambo/Ferrari/Porsche that lurks in the garage.
