Giving some thought to replacing our mh for a campervan in order to do some more in-depth exploring of currently inaccessible villages and attractions, mainly throughout the European mainland.
My preference is therefore for a rear-wheel drive model and of German manufacture. La Strada and CS Reisemobile are manufacturers which interest me but I believe that the former is no longer imported by Webbs (I believe that they were the importers) and the latter does not have UK representation.
As we would need to part-ex our current mh I was wondering whether any funsters have had any experience of a UK dealer acting as importer/agent for a one-off purchase and who would take my mh as p/ex. ( Bundesvan used to offer a service of this type but have now closed due to retirement.)
For reasons which I will not go into, I am unable to sell our (RHD) mh and then travel to Germany to purchase and import independently. (Nothing dodgy, simply immensely inconvenient.)
My question is therefore purely to ask if anyone has had experience of making a one-off purchase of a continental vehicle from a uk dealer who is not an official importer of the make.
Thanks.
