How Motorhome Manufacturers Respond to a Market Slowdown
What really happens to a manufacturer when the motorhome industry slows down? In this episode, Matt sits down with Bailey of Bristol’s Simon Howard for a unique and honest discussion about how one of the UK’s biggest motorhome and caravan manufacturers handles falling demand, overstocked dealers, and nervous buyers.
If you’ve been wondering why new motorhomes and caravans are being so heavily discounted—or whether prices might fall even further—this is essential listening. Simon also lifts the lid on how Bailey is rethinking how they build, test, and sell their 2026 models to stay ahead in a tougher market.
Also this week, Matt and Keith unveil the £5 gadget every diesel motorhome owner should consider. It could save you from a costly misfuelling disaster.
And in the Q&A: Can you keep your GPS tracker powered if your van battery is disconnected? Will the UK driving licence laws finally let you drive up to 4,250kg without taking another test? And is it worth heating your motorhome during winter storage?
