Thinking about buying a 2nd vehicle - Buy an adventure instead

NEWS RELEASE

11thOctober 2019 

 



THINKING ABOUT BUYING A SECOND VEHICLE?

‘Buy an adventure instead!'


When compared to the costs of owning a family car, choosing to own a campervan might be an option that many have not even considered.  Did you know that  financing a campervan can be just as cost effective as the monthly payments on a luxury saloon car?

Just think of the freedom and access to the outdoors that it offers if you owned a campervan, with many models offering ultimate comfort and luxury.  Forget about just owning a second car to run the family around, why not consider the advantages of owning a leisure vehicle which can also be used on a day to day basis, popping to the shops, dropping kids off at school plus the added benefit of opening up lots of new experiences and creating holiday memories for you or your family which will last a lifetime!

On display at the Motorhome and Caravan Show next week (15th - 20th October) at the NEC are many affordable vehicles that suit a range of budgets.  There is a range of financing options from finance experts, Black Horse, on many different campervan models from various brands which can be tailored to satisfy different circumstances.  The latest models and finance offers from leading UK & European brands will be on display at the NEC next week and some luxury campervan models, that have washrooms, that are worthy of considering include:

Judges from leading consumer magazine, Practical Motorhome, voted Elddis and sister-brand Compass winners of the 2020 Motorhome of the Year Awards with the newly-launched CV60 model and its clever layout.  Both the Elddis Autoquest CV60 and Compass Avantgarde CV60 are new for the 2020 season and offer a winning combination of a unique and clever layout, a high spec and a fantastic price tag.

The layout includes a day bed at the rear that can be quickly and easily made into a comfortable double bed by simply dropping the backrest down, a spacious washroom, and a kitchen that cleverly adapts for those cooking on a barbecue outside.

The CV60 model offers a French bed that can be used as a rear lounge. Based on the Fiat Ducato as standard, the new season engines will be fitted, with a 2.3-litre engine offering 140bhp. However, as with Elddis' other Fiat-based models it's possible to upgrade to the all-new automatic gearbox with 140bhp or 160bhp engines.

At a shade under six metres long, the Tribute 669 is compact enough for everyday use but sufficiently spacious for four people to travel and sleep in comfort. As one of Tribute's van conversion motorhomes, the Tribute 669 will fit on most standard driveways, saving on storage fees and is still compact enough to use as a practical everyday vehicle for active families.

 Adria Sun Living V 60 SP from £45,865 OTR / £502.35 per month*


Adria's Sun Living collection comprises a range of campervan conversions, all models are perfectly integrated on the new Fiat Ducato with Euro6 engines and offer a range of driver aids. 

Brand new campervan designs with Sun Living exclusive features are easy to own and use. There are two models, V60 SP for 2 people and V65 SL for up to 4 people. Vehicle lengths of 5.9m or 6.4m feature an innovative, clean and fresh interior design with a choice of upholstery textiles.

Swift Select 184 @ £50,970 OTR / £560.81 per month*
