Hello everyone. I joined the club at this Feb NEC show hoping to get help & advice as I buy my first motorhome.
I plan a year's tour of the UK with my partner and our (large) dog. Me and the dog aim to be on the road 365 days but partner still works so will join us intermittently. However we are based in greater London so we need a recent model with a Euro6 engine due to the LEZ. This also means visiting dealers isn't quick & easy as the closest is 1.5 hour drive away.
Looking at our plans we've assumed we will need a vehicle with payload of c.500kg so have been looking at A class solutions and have test driven a 2016 Hymer PL and were surprised at the 'squidgy' ride and amount of rolling experienced in a seats behind the front two. We also learnt we need a different layout without fixed beds to the dog can lie down comfortably. So we are now looking at drop down bed solutions with a lounge but...
.. does anyone know or can anyone advise on which Motorhomes (A Class or Coachbuilt) offer the most stable ride and best drive or maybe which ones to avoid?
With advance thanks
