I'd been thinking of getting into Munroe Bagging when I eventually return to the U.K. in a couple of years after missing the wilds of my childhood. Your videos on Motorhome are fantastic, and genuine, really helpful in building my ideas for my semi-retirement Thanks for all these ideas, you've pretty much convinced me that a compact campervan would give me the benefits of comfort between hikes and wild camps. Excellently done!
Thank you so much for watching 👍
That was a really useful run through of the different types and sizes. Very informative, thank you 😊
You are so welcome!Thank you Sue
A real insight of what to look for. Thanks fir putting this up. Along with your other vlogs.👍🙂
Glad you enjoyed it! Mark
Thanks Jason, appreciate the overview of the options available.
My pleasure! Thanks for the comment. 👍
a very informative and entertaining look at what is available in the motorhome world. Many thanks
Glad it was helpful! Jim
Hi Motorhome Man , excellent rundown of all types of van and layouts. Ideal info for the first time buyer and will save time at a dealership when you have enough to think about without being confused about layouts etc. 10/10.
Thank you John lay outs are so important when choosing a Motorhome.
Very useful information. Never knew that there were so many variations in lay outs.
Glad it was helpful! Mischa 👍
That was a great video of all the different motorhomes , thanks
Our pleasure! Teg
So useful for this novice purchaser, Thankyou
Glad it was helpful! Julia
Fantastic and helpful information...👌
Glad you liked it Star hope to see you Sunday.
Excellent and very useful!
Glad it was helpful!
Good to meet you and the chaps today Jason - I’ll be calling Steve on Monday ref the AT 630 and hopefully come to an arrangement 😀
Thanks for calling up Rob.Sorry I could not spend more time as you could see we are so busy.
Fully understand that mate - might call you soon for a chat and more advice
Excellent video loved it so helpful
Thank you Kevin glad you enjoyed it.
Excellent guide,thank you.
Thanks for watching and commenting Roger 👍
You have made lot of informative content in recent times. Very useful. I do have a campervan, but am total newbie about all things motorhome, and got my mind on the future.
Glad it was helpful! Straydoggio
Awesome guide, thank you Austin powers!
Any time! Dino
Very useful, thank you
Glad it was helpful! Mark
Your videos are really helpful… I’ve never owned either a camper van or motor home. I’m 6 ft 2in and don’t find the bench seating comfortable. I’d need a van whose front seats have shoulder support and can swivel around for use in the van itself. Any recommendations please?
This was really helpful 👍
Glad it was helpful! 👍
Great video well done
Thanks 👍 Glyn
Really helpful guide
Glad to hear!👍
would love one of these motor homes just looking to live off the grid
Go for it Joe 👍
thank you for the vids! Question: The campervan at 3.35 - with fixed bed + toilet - never knew they existed! What model/price range would something like this be? Just a general estimate from your experience would be helpful please...
Great video mate . Nice to see that Swift Sundance 630L with a different kitchen layout to mine as it’s a newer version than my 2006 . Does the passenger seat swivel on that model ?
I don't think so First Motorhome
Thanks for that
Glad you enjoyed Anne
Thanks for a great summary of UK style motorhomes from small to large.
Very timely as we are finally looking to buy a motorhome.
BUT why does the UK seem about a decade behind N.America slider design layouts? Come to think of it, the internal decors of some of the motorhomes you showed weren't that dissimilar to the Commer Autosleeper our family had back in the 1970's.
So is the lack of layout innovation in the UK due to regulations on dimension or weight, or due to UK campsite width restrictions? Or simply that UK customers are not aware of recent advances, and so are not asking for it?
My cousin (living in the US) has recently bought a fairly compact Thor Gemini motorhome based on a Ford Transit (w/ V6 turbodiesel engine). It is smaller than some of the motorhomes you showed, and would easily come under a C1 UK licence. BUT with a whole wall slider appears to give two or three times the internal space of anything that you showed. That extra width opens up all sorts of new layout possibilities.
Do you know if any of these type of designs are in the pipeline for this side of the pond? Thanks.
Thank you Muddy and I do not know why we are behind.The roads in the UK are not suitable for the RV's and yes weight is an issue there to.
You can if you want to, buy a US RV here. It will do about 7mpg on a run. Then when you get to a camp site you won't be able to get in through the entrance. You will only be able to use it on the M1, M2, M3, M4, M5 etc etc. Good luck to you! (Also their build quality is appaling, go and look at one!)
Do you have any advice for talker people? IE what’s the best internal height on a used van? Thanks 🙏
Hi, we have a Bailey 620se Approach, it came with a bike rack which we don't use but can you suggest a luggage box that we could fit to go in it's place. It would be great to have a little extra space. Thanks for all your helpful videos, this is our first motorhome. We have only managed 3 trips so far but are looking forward to exploring the UK ASAP.
Thank you Di hope you get to use your van more in 2021
Great information just about to go into motorhome, single and really like looks of autosleeper Mezan what do you or subscribers think about them ,regards Dave H.
Thank you 😊 David it’s all about the right lay out for you
Brilliant helpful video I looking for my first moterhome in December I be in touch and hope you can help me
Thank you David I would be glad to help you out.👍
Great video again. Can you do a video to show a 6 berth with seat belts at 3500kg
As and when the motorhomes come in Sheraz is when we do them.
Hello, can you let me know when you have made the solar fitting with converter video please? Thank you very much,Nicola🙋
Will be out tomorrow 😀
@@TheMotorhomeMan yippie 😊🤗😎🚌
We've just bought our first motorhome . Ducato Carioca 635 . Please can you tell me where the feeder is ? Also known as transformer or battery charger . It says in manual before connecting to power supply make sure selector on feeder is turned to correct voltage 110 or 220 v . Have not a clue where this is 2005 model . Any help would be appreciated.
Try under the driver seat or by the consumer unit Machine
I am looking for a second hand VW automatic auto sleeper Topaz. Can you help?
If I get one in Gill I will let you know.

Hi, We are thinking of buying our 1st MH, lots to look at and learn. One thing that does concern me is future value as the car industries move over to electric. Our budget will be circa £40k. Are manufactures developing electric versions?
Thanks in advance.
They are starting to Spikey
I wish the Bailey motorhomes were available in France. I've noticed that UK spec motorhomes are far better equipped than most European ones.
I do like European vans Stephen
You keep referring to those cupboard-mounted floor level heaters as 'gas and electric'. I thought they were always gas only. Do those you looked at actually run off 230v as well as gas? I've never seen one that does. They are excellent though, much more reliable and cheaper to fix than the combi boilers.
Yes they are both are some Motorhomes Andrew
Hi enjoying your videos where is your garage. Thanks.

Good but to be given a good idea of prices would be very helpful.
👍
Brilliant video. How did you get started in the motorhome business?.
Thank you David it is a long story I just fell into it.
Taking tips👍. Not going fishing again then?
No Mark 👍😂
Wonderful choice of layouts. How much & which makes would you recommend for a 1st time motorhome buyer. Budget I think around £23k to £25k. Looking for a 6 berth.
Layout preference would be u shape end lounge, with overcab bed.
Must have at least 4 Seatbelts, reverse camera & separate shower tray ( not a wet room combined wash area)
Thank you
£25 k I would say. You do not want much do you 😂 you will have to pay a bit more for that.
@@TheMotorhomeMan story of my life, I’ll see if I can push the budget up to £30k ish
I do wish you would open the door and show the inside of the toilet shower
Sorry Jane lesson learnt for next time.
Hi Jason just watched your dinner time video with Bob Ernshaw which i enjoyd great banter between you both, i watch Bob and Jennies videos and to see them being involved with you gives me confidence that you could be the man to help us move from caravan to motorhome. if you could reply leaving an email to discus our needs to change. I will give you our caravan details etc when i get your contact details. Thanks Barry.
Awesome! Thank you! Barry check in the Description
3rd thing where you going to park it if not a daily drive.
You would have to go for storage
Hi going to view a Fiat 2.8 Autotrail Cheyenne 634SE tomorrow - 2004 on a 53 plate £20k - says it’s done only 19000 miles so how do I know if it’s genuine - also are these Motorhome’s a good model as a first time Mhome?
You can do a check of MOT's www.gov.uk/check-mot-history and a HPI check.Yes AutoTrail are a good Motorhome.
Thanks I did the viewing but the seller was a bit cagey so it didn’t feel right - plus it only had history from 2014 as it was re registered after being on the isle of Mann
You did the right thing.👍
Thanks ford the reply - off to see another next week on a 2002 - it’s a 634 with L shaped lounge - which is what we’re after - up for 21k but told them I’d be a cash buyer so they said they would drop to 18.5 k - 24k miles - checked the MOT and it’s not been MOT’d since Jan 2018 so it’s definitely been sitting around since Jan 2019 - is it still worth a look as they said they would get it all serviced and MOT etc
We have a couple of Autotrails in we have not put on the website give us a call tomorrow and I can tell you what they are.
Hi. Could you tell me where your location is, please?

grandios video

I was hungry 🙃
@@TheMotorhomeMan 😂
Prices would of been good

Motor HOME, not Motor Ohm.
I know I know I can not help it my accent
😂😂😂😂 wait till he says subscribe 😂😂😂😂
Are we the only ones who think 6 berths ideal for 2 people lol
You have a point Lesley 👍
Motrome
🙃
That start was a bit patronising, stick to describing them rather than reclassifying 4 berths as 2 and telling people how they should use them. I have a motorhome towing a caravan and I stay for 20 nights or 3 if im bored. So ner ner :). Never buy the twin rear axles they cost a fortune on toll roads in europe..
I get your point but the problem is Barnie if it is a 4 berth put 4 belted seats in.
The Motorhome Man you make a good point too. Dumb design.
Just don’t buy one.
Every one as a choice.
I wish this guy would stop saying motor'ome!
I am trying
