Seeing a lot of internet sales seem to be through Motorhome depot but I’m not really sure what they are or if it’s a safe/ sensible way to source our Motorhome, just seen this which is on eBay and also on the Motorhome depo

Hi Billy
Motorhome Depot are just like an Estate Agent selling on behalf of vendors, trade and private taking a commission on the sale.
Some of the agents will be honest upright citizens and some will not be, as always buyer beware
Sorry can't help with the van.

Good luck and welcome

Motorhome Depot work as an agent, as whiskyman says.
They have a local rep in each area who liaises between seller and potential buyers and sets up viewings. They ask the seller what they want for their van and add about £2000 ( I think ) for themselves.
The local rep makes appointments for potential buyers to see the vehicle for sale but then it’s between seller and buyer to make a deal. ( I’m doing all this from memory a few years ago and of course things might have changed)
If you’re the buyer then follow all the Buyer Beware rules, check there’s no finance on the vehicle, see it in person etc.
That looks a nice van but you’d need the reg number to check any MOT history if applicable and there’s a way to check it’s not been written off in an accident ( something to do with a category C or D but others will be along, far more knowledgeable than I !)
Have you read Jim ’s book on buying a motorhome? Free to download, look for the downloads section. Well worth reading.

To the forum but sorry that I can't help you with any van details. There are five similar vans on Autotrader Motorhomes that would be a comparison check for you.
Best advice I can give is to take your time and don't rush into a purchase.
Good luck and happy hunting.

They are based about a mile away.... I had trouble with finding a place for MOT over 5 tonnes and they were very helpful. Cannot comment on their motorhome business but they do have a real base and offices

Somebody we know purchased a van last week from them apparently they have several vans from a hire company that went bust. Assuming it’s the same outfit! He is very pleased with his purchase.
