Anybody any experience of Moto Trek Motorhomes?

Hi

If you're interested in an outfit with slide outs, look how the slide is extended and retracted. The cheapest method is via a wire cable system, there are lots about but in my opinion there's a lot to go wrong. As has been mentioned weight is a big issue so small lightweight motors may have been used along with a lighter and weaker slide out box. Only my opinion but there are as BB states better alternatives.

As an RV owner, and having removed, rebuilt and reinstalled a slide out (never again!) I'd be wary of something that has poor feedback from the public.

Cheers

I would only buy a motorhome built on a Mercedes with a proper auto box but that is my preference.  Many people seem happy to change gear which seems dd in the world of today.

We looked at Moto Trek a couple of years ago and we’re very impressed with the quality. 

However. My husband wanted to know what you did if the slide-out mechanism failed and we were told that that information was given on a need to know basis, I.e. they wouldn’t tell you unless/until it failed. 

We then did some on line research and the reviews of the company’s after sales wasn’t good. The waiting time for a new van was 9 months but it seemed you were very lucky if you got it that soon.

There’s a 2016 Moto Trek on the pitch next to us at the moment on its second owner, which makes you wonder.

We were due to pick-up our Moto-Trek EB from Becks motorhomes on April 2nd(2020) but because of the Governmemnts restrictions they had to close.

However, the 2016 model we are buying is a 'van conversion, It has an unusual layout with an L shaped loung seating and a L shaped kitchen. The washroom is er!! compact and bijou and has a bench toilet. The wardrobe is also in here. There is a window in the back panel.(not obscured)

Outside is a nice silver grey finish.The back of the 'van is a single fibreglass panel with a hatch at the bottom with some storage.

This more modern model won the campervan award at the NEC this year.

The MMM  of January 2016 has a "First Test" of this model on page121.

We bought it because of the layout and the quality of the costruction and materials used
