Hi B, yes I feel the same, with all the new green taxes coming out within europe in 2010, motorhome dealers will have a hard time for sure to make a sale. I have always find france to be overpriced and I obtained a 2nd hand LHD hymer B544 here in the Uk and made french, a great saving on road tax at zero pounds pa and cheaper and better insurrance, and a two year Mot.
The thing is that I was thinking of replacing the hymer with a newer model and ever thoe the dealers will be cutting prices, they will not be looking for part exchanges in a good light, so I will get a lot less for the hymer then before.
I saw some very deals in germany last year, better builds and condition of 2nd hand models, the french but large mileage on their motorhomes with little in the way of servicing to go with it and I find them to be expensive for what they are.
I wonder if the price of sites will come down, that would be interesting to see.
