Anybody any experience of Moto Trek Motorhomes?

They look interesting, don't they.

not for you, i take it.....

ive seen a few reviews and had a look at the Oct NEC show last year...

they are 'fairly' new to motorhomes but have been stalwarts in the horsebox industry....

their USP seems to be slide out technology.

id say they would feel pretty basic (compared to your van) and a bit more utilitarian than, say, swift/bailey....i felt they were a bit cheap inside...

payloads have to be watched on the 3.5t models, that slideout weighs a bit.

not for me, but they are making inroads and are reasonably priced, an interesting alternative but the slideouts also scupper large external storage areas, from memory, although the 'G' model has a garage...watch that weight....

looked at the new eurotreka yesterday at manchester show

look great , any developments on the faults with these now they more in the mainstream

just a couple of points....

this is a big MH yet is only equipped with a Combi 4e heater....i would have expected at least a Combi 6e or possibly ALDE at £90k....

the other point is that, at that price level, there is an awful lot of serious quality opposition....mainly from the Continent, but these may not be your cuppa...

however, no mention of double floors or inboard tanks (for proper winterisation), all 'de rigeur' on most vans of this price....

i guess the moving slide outs add cost (and weight) and even technical issues (with plumbing, heating and electrics) that need to be overcome..

worth a look but id make it a close look to check the spec and depth of 'hidden quality' carefully...

an interesting van, good luck with the investigation. 

If you are seriously interested I suggest you search the web for reviews of Equitrek horseboxes, made by the same firm.  I know someone who has had repeated issues with paintwork, and have seen other comments about poor quality and after sales. The Mototrek appears to be a horsebox without the horse area at the rear.

They do look interesting, must admit, but BB has hit the nail on the head regarding taking an in depth look. There are reviews of various models online, some really good features, some not so good. Local to us, we keep meaning to go and have a browse. Heritage is definitely equine and motor sports based. 

That's a shame I was just looking at the panel van EB model and really liked that layout.

Has anyone seen this layout elsewhere?

I remembered seeing a thread about Moto Trek on MHF....

It's old and lengthy, but probably worth a read if you are a prospective purchaser....

Catherine, this van is on the XLWB chassis at 6.36m long which wpuld be a roomy van...IMHO the nearest layout is from IH with their 630 FL (front lounge) model....however, starting prices are around £15k more at  £61k, so not cheap...

the 600 FL is 6m long but almost as roomy, is £6k cheaper, mainly because it has the normal rear barn doors as opposed to a one piece custom rear end.

also many a small/slim coachbuilt with front lounge and rear washroom, some at 6m or thereabouts..

good luck.

hmmmmmmm......doesnt make terrific reading, im afraid..
