What to do if it’s too expensive to hire a campervan for your long term trip?

02 Jan

Many people dream of taking a long European road trip in a motorhome and most would prefer to take that trip between April and October to get the best weather. However, as a long trip during those months takes up a big chunk of prime rental season, it can be very expensive to hire so what can you do if renting exceeds your budget?

If you are planning a great European motorhome road trip, buying a vehicle may prove to be the most cost effective option

We would urge you to consider buying a motorhome and selling it at the end of your trip. It sounds like a daunting project but we’d like to assure you that it is much easier than you might think. We have five years of experience selling motorhomes to buyers from overseas and offer a complete service that overcomes all of the barriers you might encounter as a foreign buyer. From registering and insuring a motorhome in France to selling it at the end of your trip, we guide you through the process and provide all the solutions you need.

If your campervan trip involves travelling from the fjiords of Norway to the fishing villages of Greece, you might want to consider buying a motorhome instead of renting one

For those planning a long European trip or multiple trips, there are a number of very good reasons to invest in a purchase:

• Motorhomes hold their value well here so you will get a large part of your investment back at the end of your trip when you sell it

• Total flexibility over when you start and finish your trip

• Freedom of choice on the layout and specification of your vehicle

• The option to lend your motorhome to family members or friends

• Make multiple trips at very little additional cost, storing you motorhome with us or wherever you like elsewhere in Europe between trips

• Leave all of your possessions on your motorhome between trips

•There is no limit on which countries you can travel to or how far you go

Buying a motorhome will enable you to take an extended trip or enjoy multiple trips so you can see all of your European must sees
