Sleepless nights ahead

[campervanannie]

Had a guy this morning enquiring if I was selling my motorhome he left a business card just in case I changed my mind googled the company looks a bit of a backstreet set up anyone know them should I be worrie.

Sorry not heard of them.
Keep the card, if anything happens police may have a lead

I'd be surprised if any reputable business was approaching MH owners asking to buy. Bit of extra security and vigilance wouldn't hurt.

The phone number you have been given belongs to someone called 'Mick' so it could be genuine, but you could ring the landline number to ask if they have someone in your area

They are based, Unit 3, Smallshaw Indistrial Estate, BB11 5SX Burnley, Lancashire , sell MH's, caravans and hire out. Decent enough feedback on facebook.

It’s not that unusual, I worked in a large Vauxhall’s dealership where the sales dept often “carded” people normally in car parks ,,,normally looking for cars that they could retail and not stick on the forecourt ..because the cars could be retailed stronger prices could be offered....it does work

Don't worry Annie, they were after your MH, not the vodka.

Look at all the dates on Facebook all 2015 none later than 2018 even all the stock photos are 2018 just looks dodgy to me

I tend to avoid any businesses who only have a mobile number Annie.

But as they have registered business premises, I wouldn't worry too much.

 

[izwozral]

They are not registered with Company House although there is a BM Leisure Ltd who appear to be associated with pubs and bars. Interestingly, there was an insolvency notice for BM Leisure dated 2014 pre-dating the current registration.
Hmmm?

Wonder if Wully wants to do a bit of security work while the building trade is in a winter slump I’ll supply the pick axe handle

 

[campervanannie]

If you look on google earth at the address it looks even more dodgy not a motorhome anywhere looks like a scrap metal place.

Don't tell Wully for God's sake Annie.

Now he's got a fall guy he'll probably come and nick it!

 

[Wully]

I’ll just bite the barstewards with my new gnashers.

I would be well pee'd off, what does that say about your MH?

It would be highly unusual thieves knocking at your door first if they intend nicking a van?

I read too much on Facebook

 

[campervanannie]

Worry not as I put it on a Facebook page and Mick from BM Leisure has been in contact and apologised for worrying me and so I went through all my concerns about his business premises and the lack of updates on his website he says that it’s because he is moving premises at the moment I will sleep tonight
