Clear photos and a complete description help an offer discussion, but hidden condition and documents may still need checking.
Give the information a buyer cannot see
Photos show layout and visible condition, but they may not explain intermittent faults, previous leaks or missing paperwork. Add short notes about those points. If you do not know the answer, say so rather than describing an item as working or a panel as dry without evidence.
Ask what the first figure depends on
Check whether the initial figure assumes particular equipment, documents, roadworthiness or condition. Ask how any inspection will work and what happens if a material difference is found. An automated acknowledgement of your enquiry is not a purchase offer.
- State the exact model and age as accurately as you can.
- Show defects in context as well as close up.
- Confirm the included items before comparing figures.
Include both the motorhome and the base vehicle
A motorhome description needs the driving vehicle and the living accommodation. Give the conversion make and model as well as the base vehicle, then distinguish mechanical faults from habitation issues.
- Year, mileage, fuel type, transmission, MOT status and service history.
- Berths, travel seats, bed layout and the condition of the washroom and kitchen.
- Damp reports, roof or window leaks, heating, water and electrical equipment faults.
- Warning lights, starting or driving issues and any reason the vehicle should not be moved.
Your motorhome location and access in Flitwick
If your motorhome is kept in Flitwick, provide its actual postcode and access details. The collection address may be different from your home address. Collection availability, timing and any charges must be confirmed for the vehicle and location. If it is stored closer to Ampthill, Barton Le Clay, Bedfordshire or Kempston, tell us that location in your enquiry.
- At home: mention gates, parking restrictions and space to approach and move the vehicle.
- At a storage site or pitch: check opening hours, visitor requirements and whether you must attend.
- Tell us about missing keys, locks, flat batteries or any known reason the vehicle cannot move.
- Photograph access from a safe position; do not move an unsafe vehicle or climb onto a roof for pictures.
What to confirm before handing over your motorhome
Keep the valuation, any inspection findings and the agreed sale arrangements together. A photo based estimate, an appointment and a completed purchase are different stages. Ask for any change to an offer to be explained before deciding whether to proceed.
- Confirm the agreed amount, what is included and whether any checks remain outstanding.
- Agree the payment method and collection arrangements, including any charges, before accepting.
- Check payment through your own account where a bank transfer is used before releasing the vehicle or keys.
- Keep a written record of the handover and the documents supplied.
