Some (non-expert) advice for MH Buyer

Reasonable looking coachbuilt Motorhome for sale on a salvage site which some of you might use.

To be fair to them they do flag up mileage discrepancy.

As it's a UK vehicle the MoT history can be checked to some extent.

Any road this vehicle photographed with 48k showing; so it seems to have lost 60k miles since its last MoT, October 2017.

If it's keen enough it might be OK.

Go to copart.co.uk

Click on Recreational Vehicles.

Scroll down to bottom. It's located in sunny Belfast, although it usually says Northern Ireland, (they have a facility at Portglenone).

I just wanted to make fellow members aware that the displayed miles show a discrepancy.

Having checked the MoT history I would be having a good look underneath.

This seems to be a "modern" Type2 built relatively recently in South America.
