Motorhome Sales
We offer a comprehensive range of new and used motorhomes from leading manufacturers like Pilote and Auto-Trail. Our inventory includes compact panel vans for couples and spacious family vehicles. Every used motorhome undergoes a thorough preparation process, including MOT certification, interior valeting, and habitation checks. Our expert team provides tailored guidance to ensure your motorhome matches your travel needs and lifestyle requirements.
MOT Testing
Our MOT testing centre handles Class 4 and Class 7 motorhome MOTs with average test times of 45-60 minutes. Our technicians understand motorhome-specific requirements and provide thorough testing in modern facilities. We offer competitive pricing with no hidden costs and handle repairs on-site if needed. All tests include a detailed report and a 6-month repair guarantee for added reassurance.
Habitation Checks
Our habitation checks ensure your motorhome's living area remains safe and functional. We inspect electrical systems, gas appliances, water systems, ventilation, fire safety, and bodywork. A full damp survey is conducted to identify potential issues. These checks are essential for maintaining warranty validity and ensuring comfort during travel. Our process follows AWS guidelines for consistent quality and safety compliance.
Gas Safety Checks
We provide gas safety checks for motorhome appliances like hobs, cookers, and heating systems. Our certified technicians use calibrated equipment to ensure safe operation and compliance with IGEM standards. Regular checks prevent hazards and maintain appliance efficiency.
