I do keep being drawn back to motorhomes and probably will remain so in the run up to us having to make a decision on our next car. If we stick with a twin axle caravan then our next car has to be something bigger and slightly heavier than the current towcar. If however we went down the route of a motorhome then the need for such a towcar wouldn't be necessary.
Obviously there are a huge amount of factors to consider and it's not a decision to be made on a whim. At the moment I've been pondering layouts and quality of construction. We currently have a Lunar Delta RI, which fingers crossed continues to be what can only be described as a "good un" but we know there are "bad un's" out there too.
So when it comes to build quality, are the european built vans definitely better? Which of the UK built van's are best avoided or are they all like our Delta and a mixed bag?
I do have a preference for UK Motorhome layouts, primarily because it seems I can get one that is closer to a caravan with long lounge seats.
I'm quite taken by vans like the Elddis Encore 275, but then worry when I look at their low price point and start to wonder about quality even though they are now part of Hymer.
Anyway I look forward to hearing all your thoughts.
