  • New Motorhomers..

We are now three months in to motorhoming and loving it.

  • Informative pod, great way of putting across the points BUT, too many adverts inside the pod. Effectively shortens the pod to about 15 mins max!

    I'm sure it helps pay for it, but does spoil it for me.

  • Brilliant source of information

    What a fantastic show, balanced and informative and really has something for everyone from the seasoned motorhome owner to those looking to get in to owning one, I like the fact they put the information across in a lighthearted way but give you the key points to follow. If you own a motorhome or caravan, this is the show for you!

  • Excellent podcasts

    As new owners of a Motorhome we’ve found these podcasts excellent. They are extremely professional, loads of useful information and are presented in a wonderful light hearted style. The banter and friendlessness between Matt and Kevin works so well and makes the episodes entertaining as well as informative.

How Motorhome Manufacturers Respond to a Market Slowdown
Q: If you can drive up to 4250 on a B license in an all-electric vehicle, do you think the government will make it the same across the board for petrol and diesel?

How Motorhome Manufacturers Respond to a Market Slowdown
Q: Is it doable to fit a slave battery that isn't connected to the 12 volt system in the van, but is recharged by the alternator?

Q: What about cooking smells and damp and condensation then?
Damp can sometimes be difficult to detect in motorhomes, and cooking smells can linger due to particles of oil that settle.
