Have just been informed that TYNE VALLEY MOTORHOMES are no longer dealing in Hymer.
Looks like we are all going to end up at TW Stafford!! 440 mile round trip for us.
Anyone else heard anything?

I think Preston Caravans are now agents for Hymer.

Is that the same Preston caravans that have One New Hymer for sale on their website with over £23.000 OFF
the price!!
Apart from Southern based dealers there are little or no Northern based dealers with A class or Coach built new or used stock.
It is only my opinion but i think we will all end up travelling to the ERWIN HYMER CENTRE in Staffordshire
The clues in the name!!

They ran their Hymer stock down to three or four vans about 18-months ago so it looks as if they had already made the decision to stop Hymer by late 2017, i.e. about a year after they started with the brand.

They just took on the franchise a couple of years ago, I just had a small warranty job done, they didnt mention anything then. I got my van from TW but its a 400mile round trip for me. Im not sure if Kimberly caravans near Darlington are still Hymer dealers,

Possibly as they sell Elddis it's be a conflict of interest as they are from the same Thor stable. Hymer is definitely not the quality they used to be so possibly fed up with the hassle.

Kimberly seem to have little or no Hymer stock of any description.

TW 'may' have lost a lot of good people when they moved site from Telford to Stafford and also introduced 12 hour shifts.
6AM starts to 6PM finish.
4 on, 4 off.

Kimberly are no longer Hymer dealers, strength of pound and tight northern gits as you core demographic didn't help to write a very good business plan going forward.

They did though service my TW purchased van and did a small warranty job, without any fuss as well.

It was management.I was told they would honour any warranty work with Hymer.
I am sure a phone call would confirm.

Certainly worth a visit, junction 38 on the M6.
Always found them helpful when we have called in for a browse.
Good stock of ERIBA Caravans and Hymer campers.
