    I have never felt so comfortable when buying and vehicle. Me and my wife decided to buy a motorhome for the first time, we had travelled from the West Midlands to Hythe to view a motorhome that caught our eye on autotrader.
     
    From the moment I had booked the viewing I had given confidence, I had a call back within minutes regarding a question I had asked and given the answer which I found very impressive.

    The vehicle itself was lovely, I was impressed with the full service history and look of the vehicle. It had been looked after. When looking around the vehicle we were given time on our own to look around, think and we weren’t pressured or felt under pressure, we were given the time we needed to make such a big decision.

    Both Steve and Lee were friendly and professional and made us both very much at ease. I thank them both for their time and kindness while making a big decision and am grateful to them both.

    One of few places open on the Easter bank holiday Monday which was very lucky, so glad to have found it.
    Told on the phone about their 4 hour hire option, which was just right for me.
    There's a petrol station right next door as well, which is perfect for refueling before returning the van.

    Not a huge selection, but may have just been because I needed it for the next day.
    The entrance is a bit hidden, and you actually need to go towards the petrol station car wash, some extra signage might be good as we missed it at first.
