Buying a pre-owned motorhome - top motorhome manufacturers 2023
Buying a motorhome is a big decision, with even pre-owned motorhomes typically costing tens of thousands of pounds.
If you’re thinking about making that big an investment, we understand that you want to choose the right motorhome. So, let’s take a look at the best motorhome manufacturers according to The Camping and Caravanning Club Motorhome Owner Satisfaction Awards 2023 (pre-owned motorhomes);
1. Burstner and Dethleffs
In joint first place is German manufacturers Burstner and Dethleffs (including Sunlight), both scoring an impressive 85% satisfaction rating.
Having built a reputation with their UK customers for their innovative designs and high quality, both Burstner and Dethleff have been manufacturing motorhomes for more than 60 years, so finding a pre-owned motorhome for sale shouldn’t be a problem!
From urban campers to luxury motorhomes, both manufacturers offer a fantastic back catalogue to choose from.
2. Hymer
Following closely behind with a satisfaction rating of 84.4% is another German manufacturer, Hymer.
As a subsidiary of THOR Industries, one of the world’s leading manufacturers of RV’s, Hymer has developed a strong reputation for the build quality of their motorhomes. Hymer pride themselves on developing new technologies and smart solutions within their motorhomes.
However, all of this innovation doesn’t come cheap, with new Hymer motorhomes being some of the most expensive on the market. Of all of the pre-owned motorhomes, Hymer motorhomes seem to depreciate slower and retain their value for longer.
