Welcome
2015 looks set to be a fantastic year with
a host of amazing new motorhomes and
campervans coming to dealers.
Both British and European
manufacturers have stepped up to the
mark and produced some of the most
exciting models we’ve seen in years.
Innovation has been at the fore, as
manufacturers have battled with the
challenge of cutting weight while adding
more equipment. Many have now also
switched to wood-free construction
and have started to introduce improved
insulation, which all means great news
for buyers.
This year also sees the arrival of new
marques, including Weinsberg and
Benimar, into the UK, which means even
more choice.
So fantastic has been the range of new
models launched for 2015 that we felt
the ideal way to tell you about the best
of them was in this supplement.
Enjoy reading it and don’t forget to
take it with you to the NEC show in
Birmingham!
