I'm looking to buy an older Hymer A Class.. probably pre 1995
One of my concerns is the cost and more important the availability of the windscreen..
Cost can be covered by insurance, but if difficult to source or have to wait a few weeks or more, could be a real headache if abroad ..
To this end I wrote to Hambilton Engineering Limited and posed the question.. do they stock and how much..
This is their reply..
I haven't contacted any of the suggested companies.. Am I right to be concerned.. or am I worrying for no reason..
has anyone had any experience of having to source a new screen for an older Hymer.. ?
If these are difficult to source I may have to rethink .. :Sad:

Dear Mr Allan,
Thank you for your email. We are actually running down our stocks of windscreens at the moment, and no longer carrying glasses for the older Hymers. Some of the larger automotive glass companies, however, such as EFK Glass or Bus and Coach Glazing should be able to help you.
All A Class Hymers up to around 1995/96 used the same windscreen.
Best Regards
