Not that expensive and in my opinion better to have a new one as technically they are meant to degrade over time. See what space you have on the roof first then buy to suit your budget and the space available.

100w . £85 ..

You're best off buying new. There are two types, one is more efficient than the other.

There is poly and Mono versions. You can web search and read up if you want but in my experience each can have a plus and a minus and for such small use on a motorhome not worth the worry.

The difference between the types of small solar panels on a MoHo is negligible. Just buying the biggest that will fit the gap will provide a larger return. Loads of S/H on eBay, buy the 20v ones

Monocrytalline are reckoned to be slightly more efficient because of crystal purity. Might make a difference in poor light but I wouldn’t know from personal experience. I think some ebay ones claim to be mono when they are not. Mono ones are supposed to have little diamond/triangular shapes in the corner of each segment .

Solar panel output is only critical when the sky is grey or cloudy. The simple fact is that you cannot have too much panel area so the limit is set by room on the roof and the budget you allow.
