www.motorhomesdirect.co.uk Motorhome Rental in the UK is very popular today. Maybe it’s TV programs like the recent Rick Stein’s Spain that has helped this method of touring become so big. If you didn’t see the Rick Stein show, you can watch the last episode on Wednesday — I think he is down the south of Spain in Seville, Granada etc. Basically he arrived in Spain by the Brittany Ferries Portsmouth to Bilbao route with a T2 (I think — correct me if I am wrong) VW Campervan that he had ‘borrowed from a mate’. So from the ferry Rick went to Galicia, Navarra, Catalunya, Valencia, La Mancha and … I haven’t seen the last one yet. Along the way he was seeing what the local delicacies were, getting involved and speaking quite bad Spanish. It’s been a great show so far, but he hasn’t actually stayed in the VW yet! Presumably the BBC put him up in nice hotels, he has cooked in the van though, so that’s something. My favourite part was the ‘Snail Festival’ in Lleida, quite cool to see 12000 people eating snails! Motorhome RentalIf you fancy doing a tour of Spain or anywhere else you fancy, you can do it in a bit more style than Rick Stein’s VW campervan. If you specifically require a VW motorhome rental, we can find you one, but there really are some much better motorhomes available these days — but just like VW many of the quality models are still made in Germany. Modern German classics tend to be the Hymer motorhomes that you see on the road all over Europe. Another superb …

Motorhome Hire Boom Creates Unique Investment Opportunity

London, UK (PRWEB UK) 9 June 2011

The next three years are going to be very big for UK motorhome hire companies. The UEFA European Cup Finals, the 2012 Olympics and the 2014 Commonwealth Games are all going to cause great demand for motorhomes and hire rates will be at a premium. Alastair Hilton of the UK’s leading motorhome and campervan hire company explains below why this has led to the creation of a highly attractive and unique three year investment plan.

Alastair said, “Over the past ten years, demand for motorhome hire has risen over 20% every year, even without these huge events the market is booming, and our company is the market leader. The bottom line is that we need to buy more motorhomes…”

So how are companies like this going to buy new motorhomes? A new motorhome is not exactly cheap – costing £40,000, £47,000 even over £50,000 for a fully equipped model. Which is where Hilton’s unique investment opportunity comes in:

“Pensioners, SIP owners and investors who have £35,000 or more in savings, can benefit from a unique and secure investment idea. Instead of receiving 1%, 2% or even 3% on your money, how about a return of 30%?… and a bit of fun thrown in too?”

This is where it gets interesting… Hilton continues, describing a typical £35,000 investment:

“Over three years you receive a guaranteed monthly payment of £300 interest on your £35,000 investment, paid directly into your bank. Your investment is treated as a loan to our company – and it is secured like a mortgage. We use your investment or loan to buy a new motorhome. Details of the loan are kept in the form of a debenture at Companies House.”

But how safe is this investment? Alastair Hilton says, “Very! In the highly unlikely event that we were to go bust, your loan to us is secured against the motorhome that we bought. This means that your £35,000 loan is protected or ‘ring fenced’ against any other creditors. You have first and full legal title over the motorhome, which you could sell, in order to get your money back.

An added bonus with the motorhome investment plan, is that we are offering our investors up to six weeks free hire in any of our motorhomes during the three years. The offer is excluding the peak season, but investors are able to choose from any model in our fleet. Investors only pay for the hire insurance costs.”

So not only do you get a 30% return on your money, amounting to £10,800 at the end of three years, but you’ll also enjoy six weeks worth of fantastic holidays for a fraction of the usual price!

Motorhomes retail for between £45,000 to over £50,000 depending on the exact model acquired. There is no “mark up” or VAT involved, and the finance costs (the investor’s interest payments) are tax allowable. This is a “win-win” situation.

After 36 months, the company sells the motorhome that the investor’s loan was made on and repay the loan back to the investor. If you are looking for a trouble free way to invest a lump sum for 3 years, this could be the ideal investment opportunity.

Fun-Filled and Educational Events for Motorhome Owners in 2012

Attendees are drawn to the motorhome exhibits, among many other attractions, at FMCA conventions.

Cincinnati, Ohio (PRWEB) December 21, 2011

The Indiana State Fairgrounds in Indianapolis will be the epicenter of good times and learning opportunities as Family Motor Coach Association (FMCA) gathers for its 87th Family Reunion and Motorhome Showcase event August 27-30, 2012.

FMCA, an international organization for motorhome owners, is calling the event “Formula For Fun.”

The conclave will provide motorhome owners the occasion to explore the local area and to socialize with others who share their interest in the RV lifestyle.

In addition, a full slate of seminars will be offered. Topics include motorhome maintenance, dinghy towing, travel destinations, the RV electrical system, and health and wellness. Approximately 150 different technical and lifestyle topics will be covered, all focused on enhancing the motorhome lifestyle, which is FMCA’s mission.

Motorhome dealers and manufacturers from around the country will join in by bringing motorhome models that showcase the latest amenities. Today’s RVs include an impressive array of features, allowing travelers to take along all of the comforts of home and then some. And they are available in a variety of sizes and price ranges.

Most FMCA members will drive to the Indianapolis gathering in their motorhomes and stay on-site, having pre-registered for the event. (Registration begins in January 2012 at http://www.fmca.com.)

The public is welcome to join in the excitement as well, by purchasing a pass at the FMCA public gate.

Even before the conclave in Indianapolis, FMCA will offer motorhome owners opportunities to gather for similar events but on a smaller scale. Each of FMCA’s nine geographic areas will host regional rallies in 2012, with locations ranging from the West Coast to the East Coast, and points in between.

The year will kick off with the Western Area Rally, set to take place January 11-15 at the Riverside County Fair & National Date Festival grounds in Indio, California. Following closely will be the Southeast Area Rally, February 1-5, in Brooksville, Florida. Memorial Day weekend will bring the Great Lakes Area Rally, May 24-28, in Berrien Springs, Michigan. Summer fun will include the Northwest Area Rally, June 21-24, in North Bend, Oregon; the Midwest Area Rally, June 27-30, in Pecatonica, Illinois; and the Northeast Area Rally, July 19-22, in Essex Junction, Vermont.

The FMCA area rally season doesn’t end with the big event in Indianapolis, Indiana. Motorhome owners can enjoy the splendor of fall by attending events in varying locations. The Rocky Mountain Ramble takes place September 11-16 in Gillette, Wyoming. The South Central Area Rally will call Shawnee, Oklahoma, home from September 26 through 30. And the Eastern Area Rally will be celebrated in York, Pennsylvania, October 10-14.

FMCA also has nearly 500 chapters — smaller subgroups organized on the basis of geographic locale, motorhome make or model, or a special interest. Each of them has its own rallies throughout the year. Through chapters, motorhome owners connected to FMCA never lack ways to get out there and have a good time using their rolling homes.

About Family Motor Coach Association • Enhancing The Motorhome Lifestyle

Family Motor Coach Association (FMCA) is an international organization for families who own and enjoy the use of self-contained, motorized recreation vehicles known as motorhomes. The association maintains its national headquarters in Cincinnati, Ohio, and currently has nearly 90,000 active member families. FMCA offers its members a number of benefits, including a subscription to its monthly magazine, Family Motor Coaching; an emergency medical evacuation program; trip routing; mail forwarding; and group rates on an emergency roadside assistance program. Perhaps the most important benefit of FMCA membership is the camaraderie and friendships that develop among people enjoying the common interest of motorhome travel and recreation.

Question by Harald: How can i get a motorhome transported to UK?
Recently bought my ideal motorhome in Germany. A Hymer S555 1993 model. With the German export plates (10 days limit) i drove it to Spain to get it registered, now i found out that i can not register it here. I have to ship it back to UK because the number plates are expired. Anyone any ideas how to ship a motorhome or is there temporary number plates i can get, or something???

Best answer:

Answer by finch
If you can’t drive it you’ll have to get someone to pick it up with a transporter lorry. It’s probably cheaper to register it in Germany for now and then drive it back to the UK!
