From choosing the right layout to understanding essential features and must-have accessories, our guide is designed to steer you toward the perfect motorhome tailored to your lifestyle and travel dreams.
Below are some of the most common questions you should ask before buying your first motorhome.
There isn’t really a best time of year to buy, motorhomes are available all year round. For new RVs late summer is popular as vendors are often looking to sell last year’s stock.
If you want to take bikes it’s advisable to invest in a bike rack; if you want extra living space then it is worth thinking about an awning or if you need to access the top of your motorhome then fitting ladders is a good idea.
There are numerous layouts available to suit your individual needs. For example, if you have small children who need peace to sleep then bunk beds to the rear are a good idea.
This will depend on which home is best for your needs. American motorhomes are popular with families because of the space they offer. These are larger and therefore heavier. Smaller homes, for example, the 2 berth Chausson Flash 03 is lighter in weight due to its smaller size.

There are some extremely well looked after used motorhomes on the market and a lot of these come complete with accessories. Buying a brand new home, however, does mean that you can choose an extras you wish to have and you will have all the other advantages of being the first owner.
The beauty of a motorhome is that you are essentially all set up to go as soon as you arrive. If you’re in for a long stay then you will probably want to set up camping grills, awnings, outdoor and indoor rugs, chairs and tables.
When starting your search, it’s important to be open-minded about the type of motorhome you want. You might have a specific model in mind, but during your research, you could discover that a different type better suits your needs and lifestyle. Don’t be surprised if you end up choosing something you didn’t expect.
Before you begin shopping, take the time to write down everything you ideally want in a motorhome, as well as the features that are absolute necessities. This list will help you stay focused during your search and ensure you don’t compromise on the essentials. Consider aspects such as the layout, number of berths, kitchen facilities, bathroom setup, storage space, and any additional features like solar panels or a bike rack.
Some dealers offer the option to trial motorhomes before making a purchase. This hands-on experience can be invaluable, allowing you to get a real feel for what it’s like to own and drive a motorhome. It gives you the opportunity to test out the living space, check the ease of driving, and decide if the motorhome meets your expectations.
If you’re considering a used motorhome, it’s essential to perform the same checks you would if buying a used car. Look for signs of rust, corrosion, or any damage like leaks that could lead to costly repairs in the future. Ensure the engine and mechanical components are in good condition, and don’t forget to verify the service history and mileage.
Visiting trade shows and exhibitions can be a great way to see a variety of motorhomes in person. These events provide a unique opportunity to compare different models, layouts, and brands all in one place. Plus, you’ll have the chance to speak directly with knowledgeable sales teams from various manufacturers, allowing you to ask specific questions and gather information from industry experts. It’s also an excellent way to discover the latest innovations and trends in the motorhome market.
