We've found our 'new to us' Motorhome

Over the past couple of years we've spent a lot of time mulling over the pros and cons of buying a Motorhome. We'd hired them in the past and always enjoyed our time away but the purchase cost and cost of ownership had put us off. However at the end of 2024 we decided that we could afford it and started looking around in earnest. 

We visited a number of Motorhome dealers looking at the various makes and models on offer and this led us to drive across the snow covered Pennines from Macclesfield to Sheffield on Monday 10th Feb 2025.

We visited Marquis Motorhomes to take a look at an Imala 730HB they had (the one pictured). We really like it and decided this is the one for us. It had the layout we liked inside with an island bed which was a little higher than others which allowed for a larger garage (what they call the storage space at the back of a Motorhome).

We were told that Marquis in Northampton would deal with us and the van would be moved to Northampton. On the way back from Sheffield to Bedford we stopped off in Northampton to sign the paperwork and pay the deposit.

We're now waiting on the funds to pay for it. Once these are in pace we can arrange a pick-up date.
