Hi Keith,
I'm so pleased to see you have had some good advice from members. We also have some advice on our website about buying a motorhome and I hope this helps too. If you have any technical questions I'm sure other members will be able to help on Club Together and you can also email our technical team on technical@camc.com or call them 01342 336 611.
If you do want to try a motorhome out, we do offer try before you buy so you can see how you find it before you make a commitment to buying a motorhome.
I wish you all the best finding the right option for you and keep us updated on how you get on.

This is a recurring discussion in our house too. We know what we want in a layout and more or less ruled out a PCV. Coming from an 8.0m van with a fixed bed to a moho with a max length of 7m requires some significant compromises. We have enquired about hiring and will do so however when i was told the hire rates i repeated i was hiring not buying 😮

we have just changed last week.
finding it great, one point though is the new law on parking along the north wales coast... No motorhomes or caravans between 11pm and 8am.
that stretches from the front at Rhyl all the way through and beyond Llandudno.

As I said before, good on that Council. Having seen the mayhem caused at Exmouth, I don’t blame any Council for acting.
Anyway, that’s off topic and I won’t continue here.

That original story has disappeared for me. Too political?

yes, I can see that coming from an 8m caravan one might find a 6m PVC a bit of a shock to start with, but im not sure that many MHers might think their 7m Coachbuilts 'require some significant compromises'
...but I guess it depends what one wants a van (MH or caravan) for...
if its for sitting in (while it's raining?) and replicating ones home, then perhaps get the biggest one going..
but MHing isn't caravanning and im confident that's not necessarily what a lot of MHowners will be prioritising. without a towcar, there are many other factors to consider..
yes, of course we are all going to be spending time inside a van but we don't host (indoor) dinner parties nor need to do more than shower, wash or use the loo in the washroom. a small, but well designed kitchen can work well and large beds make for great sleeping.
our 'large space' is outside the van and the engine at the front allows for this to be a regularly changing environment.
sitting inside a caravan (on a CC site, perhaps?) might be some folk's top priority but a MH has to perform other tasks like getting you there and carrying all ones stuff, so in order to satisfy this larger brief, there will be different ways of doing it.
some might see this as 'significant compromise', others 'flexibility and versatility' in a single unit.
