• What’s Happening to Motorhome Sales, Stock and Servicing

  🛡️ 15% OFF INSURANCE mhmp.info/ripeinsurance In this episode of the Motorhome Matt Podcast, Matt and Keith take a frank look at the current state of the motorhome industry. With negative headlines doing the rounds and challenges bubbling up behind the scenes, is it all doom and gloom—or is there more to the story? From rising demand and stretched service centres to parts shortages and storage site pressures, it’s clear the industry is shifting—and Matt explains why that’s not necessarily bad news. He shares how his own businesses are responding, what he’s seeing on the ground, and what it all means if you’re thinking about buying. New driving laws in Spain ban the red warning triangles in favour of a clever piece of kit called a V16 beacon. Matt explains what it is, how it works, and why you might want one, whether you’re heading to Spain or not. And if you’re off to the Southern Motorhome & Campervan Show in Newbury, stick around for a discount code that could save you a few quid on tickets. In the Q&A, Matt answers your questions on whether a 90-year-old can still get campervan insurance, and what to do if the screen price of your motorhome plummets just after you’ve bought it. ✅ MOTORHOME MATT APPROVED Services, products and educational resources used and approved by Motorhome Matt mhmp.info/approved ❓ ASK MATT mhmp.info/askmatt 🛒 PRODUCT OF THE WEEK https://www.thatleisureshop.com/led-v16-emergency-beacon/ 🗓️ UPCOMING EVENTS mhmp.info/events 📹 WATCH ON YOUTUBE mhmp.info/watch 💬 LEAVE A REVIEW mhmp.info/review The Motorhome Matt podcast is brought to you by That Leisure Shop, camping and leisure vehicle accessory specialists. 10% off your first order with the code MOTORHOMEMATT.
