Choosing The Right Motorhome For You

When choosing a motorhome, it's important to consider your needs and budget. Consider the size of your family or group, the type of activities you plan to do, and the amount of storage space you need. It's also a good idea to test drive a few different models to get a feel for their driving dynamics and layout.

Types of Motorhome

 

Overcab Motorhome

Over-cabs, or ‘Lutons’, tend to be bigger in size – able to accommodate two to six people – thanks to the having the additional space above the cab, which is usually utilised for storage space or an extra bed.

  • High initial cost: Motorhomes can be expensive to purchase and maintain.
  • Limited storage space: Motorhomes can have limited storage space for belongings, especially when you're fully loaded and ready to travel.

Frequently Asked Questions

If you enjoy the freedom to travel, a motorhome can be an excellent investment. It allows you to explore the UK and Europe at your own pace, with your accommodation always close by. Whether you're planning weekend escapes, extended tours or family holidays, a motorhome offers flexibility, comfort and the opportunity to create unforgettable experiences.

Owning a motorhome gives you the freedom to travel whenever and wherever you choose. You'll enjoy comfortable accommodation, the convenience of your own kitchen and sleeping facilities, and the flexibility to change your plans without relying on hotels or fixed itineraries. Many owners also appreciate the opportunity to visit a wide range of destinations throughout the year.

Both new and used motorhomes have their advantages. A new motorhome offers the latest features, technology and manufacturer's warranty, while a quality used motorhome can provide excellent value for money. At Marquis, we offer a wide range of both new and used motorhomes, helping you find the right vehicle to suit your needs and budget.

The best layout depends on how you plan to travel. Consider how many people will be travelling, whether you prefer fixed or convertible beds, how much storage you need and whether features such as a separate shower or larger lounge are important to you. Visiting your local Marquis branch allows you to step inside different layouts and compare them in person before making your decision.

Many motorhomes can be driven on a standard Category B driving licence, provided they have a Maximum Technically Permissible Laden Mass (MTPLM) of up to 3,500kg. Larger motorhomes may require additional licence entitlement depending on when you passed your driving test. If you're unsure, our team can help explain which vehicles you're eligible to drive.

When choosing a motorhome, consider factors such as the number of berths and travel seats, the layout, storage space, payload, driving licence requirements and your typical touring style. Our experienced team can guide you through the different options to help you find the perfect motorhome for your adventures.

Motorhomes generally offer larger living spaces, more storage and a wider choice of layouts, making them ideal for extended touring and families. Campervans are typically more compact, easier to drive and can often be used as an everyday vehicle. The right choice depends on how you plan to travel, your budget and the level of space and comfort you require.
