- 0:00And that's where I say you can really
- 0:02burn your fingers. It used to cost €
- 0:0682,323. It costs money now, but the RV
- 0:10industry in general is facing even
- 0:11greater challenges today than those
- 0:12that it was confronted with last year.
- 0:15Namely, this vehicle here. This is a
- 0:17vehicle from an insolvency. The mood in
- 0:20the RV industry is becoming
- 0:21increasingly tense. Brave RV buyers can
- 0:24now get a real bargain. However, great
- 0:27caution is still advised, because
- 0:28during this particular period of time,
- 0:30you can absolutely end up burning your
- 0:32fingers. I'll explain why today. I am
- 0:34Philip von Gümer, and today we are
- 0:35going to take a little walk through our
- 0:37farm located here in Wheim. Let's take
- 0:39a look at some great bargains and I'll
- 0:41also tell you how things are going for
- 0:42us, how the industry is doing and what
- 0:44you as a buyer need to be aware of in
- 0:46the near future. This video is
- 0:47definitely exciting. Stay tuned until
- 0:49the end, because as always, we'll be
- 0:51chatting about our experiences and
- 0:53getting straight into it. We will start
- 0:55right here at the front with our newly
- 0:57arrived Hymer Grand Canyon S Crossover
- 0:59model. Josh will quickly show you these
- 1:01. On the other side, we still have a
- 1:04few older Grand Canyon S models, which
- 1:05are also available in part as genuine
- 1:07bargains for you to take advantage of.
- 1:09Of course, there's also the Crosil in
- 1:11the beautiful new color. And then we
- 1:13also have a couple of MLT crossovers.
- 1:16As you are aware, we have achieved a
- 1:18remarkably strong start with the Hyma
- 1:19all-wheel drive clearance sale that is
- 1:21currently underway. We have now sold
- 1:23through the majority of the MLT models
- 1:25that were included in our ongoing
- 1:26clearance sale. We still have a few
- 1:29Grand Canyon S models left, which is
- 1:30why we would like to take this
- 1:32opportunity to issue another friendly
- 1:33reminder, encouraging you to go ahead
- 1:35and secure a bargain or two for
- 1:37yourselves. Here we also have our CR
- 1:40Canyon S700. A few of these have
- 1:43already been sold. There used to be
- 1:45eight of them standing in a row, but I
- 1:46also happen to know that we have sold a
- 1:48fair amount of them over time. This is
- 1:50also an exciting vehicle. The Cliff 4x4
- 1:52is coming straight from the rental
- 1:54market. But what I want to show you is
- 1:57an entirely different vehicle that I
- 2:00personally find very appealing, and
- 2:02that is our BMC Blackline 600. The
- 2:04Blackline already offers a significant
- 2:07price advantage based on its list price
- 2:09, because a special package was put
- 2:11together for the new Modern Comfort at
- 2:14that time. So the model was being
- 2:17discontinued, and Hymer knew that the
- 2:19new Modern Comfort would be arriving
- 2:20the following year, so they put
- 2:22together a special package in order to
- 2:24sell off the remaining BMC chassis that
- 2:26featured the old model and the old
- 2:27design during that final period. Then
- 2:30they added the aluminum rims, installed
- 2:33a black driver's cab, and finished the
- 2:36side wall in silver as standard,
- 2:38featuring this beautiful Plackline
- 2:40decal design. Then they added a few
- 2:43nice stripes here. An awning is
- 2:45included, as well as a frame window,
- 2:47because those features are generally
- 2:48always included as standard with a
- 2:50Hymer vehicle. You also have the SLC
- 2:52chassis, navigation system, reversing
- 2:55camera and a whole lot of other
- 2:56equipment. I'd like to briefly talk
- 2:59about the SLC chassis, which stands for
- 3:01the Super Light chassis. Hymer
- 3:02developed it in collaboration with
- 3:04Mercedes. This is comparable to an Alco
- 3:07chassis, only it has been tuned even
- 3:09better to match the Mercedes vehicle.
- 3:10In my view, it is the best chassis that
- 3:12exists within the motorhome sector,
- 3:14both for the semi-integrated as well as
- 3:15for the fully integrated models. Here
- 3:17we have our rear garage. That's also a
- 3:20bit special. We have a load capacity of
- 3:23350 kg here. For comparison, if you go
- 3:26to other manufacturers, you sometimes
- 3:28only have 150 or 200 kg, whereas with
- 3:29Hymer you get 350, and that already
- 3:31includes the checker plate floor, which
- 3:33of course makes the entire construction
- 3:35much more stable. I'd say let's take a
- 3:37quick look inside. What we are looking
- 3:39at here is a high-quality, proven
- 3:41design from Hymer. You can expect a
- 3:43high level of quality here, because the
- 3:45furniture construction and the way the
- 3:47vehicle is generally designed have been
- 3:48going through the production line for a
- 3:50very long time. Experience shows that
- 3:54when a vehicle model has been moving
- 3:55through production for five years, its
- 3:57quality at the end of the product life
- 3:58cycle is particularly high. And that's
- 4:01what we have with this vehicle. You
- 4:03have a concrete floor, which was then
- 4:04changed for the Blackline, and
- 4:05otherwise we have what you might call
- 4:07the old design, to put it in quotation
- 4:08marks. Why am I showing you this
- 4:10vehicle? This is one of the last
- 4:12remaining Blackline models. It now
- 4:14costs € 132,000. You will then
- 4:17receive another € 25,000 discount
- 4:18from us. The vehicle is 7.20 m long. So
- 4:22, it is still quite compact. You have
- 4:25nice beds in the back. You also have
- 4:27the proven Hymer quality in the bedroom
- 4:29, which is also available these days.
- 4:31And then, on the other side, you also
- 4:33have a combined bathroom with a
- 4:34comfortable shower that provides enough
- 4:36room for me to stand inside it with
- 4:38ease. At this point, I would be happy
- 4:40if you subscribed to our channel. There
- 4:42will be lots more exciting information
- 4:44about topics related to the motorhome
- 4:46industry. For you as a motorhome buyer
- 4:48or prospective customer, it is always
- 4:50very important, and it means a great
- 4:51deal to us when you support us by
- 4:53signing up for a subscription. For you
- 4:55it is free, and we benefit immensely
- 4:57because we are the ones who support
- 4:58this channel ourselves as well. We run
- 5:01almost no advertising on this YouTube
- 5:02channel, simply to ensure that we
- 5:04maintain everything here in a way that
- 5:05is as authentic as possible. By
- 5:08subscribing, you provide us with
- 5:09valuable support, as it makes it
- 5:10significantly easier for us to continue
- 5:12developing this channel for you and
- 5:13ensures that we can keep providing you
- 5:14with the accurate and relevant
- 5:15information that you expect from us. I
- 5:17would like to add a few more words
- 5:19regarding the GTS 600. As for the
- 5:21Caravan Salon, you have surely seen the
- 5:23videos showing that the event was
- 5:25relatively unsatisfactory for many or
- 5:27even most of the manufacturers. The
- 5:29entire industry had more or less one or
- 5:31the other problem, with one single
- 5:33exception that I am aware of, and that
- 5:34specific exception is the brand Hymer.
- 5:37At the Caravansalon in Düsseldorf,
- 5:38Hymer has in fact managed to sell
- 5:40slightly better than they were able to
- 5:42achieve during the previous year. They
- 5:44had the same marketing campaigns as
- 5:46last year and in general they didn't
- 5:48reduce their prices significantly or
- 5:50invest more in marketing. Instead,
- 5:53Hymer has an advantage and I think
- 5:55that's what customers are seeing now.
- 5:58They have a really tidy product range.
- 6:03That means the customer knows exactly
- 6:04what they're getting. They maintain a
- 6:06very high level of quality, and I
- 6:07believe that is exactly what customers
- 6:09notice whenever they choose to purchase
- 6:10a Hymer vehicle these days. And they
- 6:12have a high level of service
- 6:14orientation. Without anyone taking much
- 6:16notice, Hymer has simply overtaken
- 6:18other manufacturers with extreme
- 6:20acceleration when it comes to the level
- 6:22of quality and the quality of their
- 6:23provided services. They aim to
- 6:26re-establish the Mercedes brand,
- 6:27focusing on what made Mercedes great in
- 6:29the past, specifically their service
- 6:30philosophy, which is something you can
- 6:32see quite clearly in the motorhome
- 6:34industry, especially when looking at
- 6:35the Hymer brand. And I believe that
- 6:37word has truly gotten around, which is
- 6:39the reason why this brand has been so
- 6:40successful and continues to be to this
- 6:42very day. You really have to stop and
- 6:45think about it: You are paying 150,000,
- 6:47170,000, or 180,000 euros for a
- 6:48motorhome, and in such high quantities
- 6:50—it really makes you wonder if they
- 6:52have completely lost their minds. But
- 6:55for one customer, it is obviously worth
- 6:56it to perhaps spend 10,000 or 20,000
- 6:58euros more on a motorhome, because you
- 7:00receive a higher level of quality in
- 7:02return for that extra investment. The
- 7:03GTS is an example of this; it is a
- 7:05vehicle that has functioned very well
- 7:07indeed. At the Caravan Salon, it was
- 7:09the new Masterline that we had been
- 7:11looking forward to, which performs
- 7:12quite well. Independent of all the MLT
- 7:16models that were sold in the past,
- 7:17Hymer has now managed to rediscover its
- 7:18former strength, demonstrating a return
- 7:20to the quality and reliability that the
- 7:21company was always known for in the
- 7:23industry. You have to say that. We are
- 7:26now here with Niesmann and Bischof. We
- 7:28now have a Niesmann and Bischof Flir
- 7:30here. We should currently have two of
- 7:32them. Then there is another door, or
- 7:34rather, there should be two cars here
- 7:35as well. We have almost sold a Niesmann
- 7:38and a Bischofler. We will probably
- 7:40receive an interesting vehicle in part
- 7:42exchange as well, but I will talk to
- 7:43you about that once more or, as would
- 7:45be logical, introduce the vehicle to
- 7:46you at that time when it has actually
- 7:47arrived here. Here we have the
- 7:50individual Hy Experience and Grand
- 7:52Canyon S Crossovers. But what I would
- 7:54like to show you all now is a Bürstner
- 7:56, specifically the model B66. This is
- 7:59still the most successful camper van
- 8:00that we currently sell and many other
- 8:02dealers say the same. This vehicle is
- 8:05still selling well. We have it as a 600
- 8:07and 640 with a pop-up roof. And on the
- 8:10other side here, we also have the B66
- 8:12camper van available. Of course, we
- 8:15have the Signature in various versions.
- 8:17One version with a horn, one without,
- 8:19one version with a skyroof, one without
- 8:21. You are now able to take a look at
- 8:22all of those things now. The Böstner
- 8:24inventory remains shockingly low, which
- 8:25is simply due to the fact that these
- 8:27cars turn over so extremely quickly. It
- 8:28is truly a great brand, that is
- 8:30something that simply must be said. The
- 8:32vehicles are selling well. They are
- 8:34also attractively priced for you. You
- 8:37don't have to haggle too much anymore,
- 8:38because I'll be honest with you, we
- 8:39dealers don't make that much money from
- 8:41it anyway. The price is already fair
- 8:43from the very beginning, and you can be
- 8:45certain that it is quite difficult for
- 8:47you to be taken advantage of or ripped
- 8:49off here. And now we have arrived here
- 8:52at our Crosscamp and our Sunlight area,
- 8:53and within the Sunlight section, I
- 8:55would like to focus our attention once
- 8:57again on our special models. We
- 8:59naturally still have some beautiful
- 9:00vehicles in stock here, as well as some
- 9:02great bargains. I68, i67S, T67, a T680,
- 9:05these include models from last year and
- 9:07all-rounders as well, but we have some
- 9:10truly exciting special editions
- 9:11available now. We've already introduced
- 9:14them to you. A camper van for 575, the
- 9:16frame window, insulated waste water
- 9:18tank, navigation system, reversing
- 9:20camera, lithium battery, diesel heating
- 9:22, you get it all. The whole thing is
- 9:25also available as a V, so V60, V6 and
- 9:28then we'll be the only ones who have
- 9:30the T680 based on Ford next year. This
- 9:35is a floor plan that Sandlight no
- 9:36longer produces, and we as Gümer are
- 9:38the only motorhome dealer that will
- 9:39still have this specific floor plan
- 9:40available, even featuring that
- 9:42excellent level of equipment. It also
- 9:44has everything. I will put the link to
- 9:46the landing page in the video
- 9:47description for you down below.
- 9:48Definitely check it out. Marcus
- 9:50Sunlight is currently running another
- 9:52great promotion where you can also save
- 9:54money. We can also apply these in part
- 9:56to our special models, which allows us
- 9:58to provide you with a correspondingly
- 9:59excellent offer and have a very
- 10:01attractive price prepared for all of
- 10:02you. Namely, this vehicle here. This is
- 10:05a vehicle from an insolvency. So, a
- 10:08rental company dealt with it. This is a
- 10:10Deadlefs Clope Trail Active 600DS. It
- 10:14features alloy wheels, an automatic
- 10:16transmission, a navigation system with
- 10:19a reversing camera, and a pop-up roof.
- 10:21With 17,000 kilometers on the clock, it
- 10:23includes the Dethleffs swivel bathroom
- 10:25and boasts an overall very high-quality
- 10:27level of equipment. Generally speaking,
- 10:29it is based on the 600DS Active, as I
- 10:32said. With a first registration before
- 10:35the end of this year, April 2026, you
- 10:38have almost a new vehicle. You even
- 10:41have the factory warranty on this
- 10:42vehicle, and the sooner you decide to
- 10:44buy it, the longer you will retain that
- 10:46coverage, which you can get from us for
- 10:48exactly € 59,489. This means that we
- 10:52are really strong and stable in terms
- 10:54of price for this vehicle. And if you
- 10:56think about it, a B66 with a pop-up and
- 10:58automatic transmission costs around €
- 11:0070,000. Then you can get a vehicle like
- 11:03this for € 60,000. You are
- 11:05practically saving 10,000 euros and
- 11:07getting an almost new vehicle; in this
- 11:08case, a used car that has low mileage
- 11:10and also a relatively recent date of
- 11:12first registration for your driving
- 11:14needs. So in that case, you should be
- 11:16quick; we still have two or three
- 11:17pieces left there for you to pick up.
- 11:19They only arrived quite recently, but
- 11:20we have, of course, already received
- 11:22some interest from the first potential
- 11:23buyers for them. We also notice that
- 11:25they will probably be sold out by
- 11:26spring. As we stand here, I will
- 11:28explain to you how the situation is
- 11:30currently developing, because I
- 11:31mentioned at the beginning that brave
- 11:33buyers can find real bargains here, but
- 11:34on the other hand, you can also easily
- 11:36burn your fingers if you are not
- 11:37careful with your choices. What do I
- 11:39mean by that? Behind me, you can now
- 11:41take a look at our vehicle inventory in
- 11:43Wtheim. It's a bit lower than last year
- 11:46, but it's still built up a bit. Why?
- 11:49It's quite simple. We simply bought
- 11:51vehicles. There was an insolvency here
- 11:53at one point, which is where we
- 11:54purchased our vehicles. Another dealer
- 11:57friend gave us vehicles and so on. And
- 12:01that of course pushed our inventory up
- 12:03a bit again and now we're going back to
- 12:05selling off or have already done so at
- 12:07the in-house trade fair, and the
- 12:09in-house trade fair, including the last
- 12:11two months, went relatively well. We're
- 12:15a bit worse, I'd say about 2-3%worse
- 12:17than last year. But that does not
- 12:20bother us much, because those 2-3%fewer
- 12:22are still quite enough and remain good
- 12:25for us, and we are still able to work
- 12:27well with them. But the mobile home
- 12:30trade in general is facing even greater
- 12:32challenges than it did last year,
- 12:33because the situation has continued to
- 12:35worsen. We still have a tense situation
- 12:39, both for manufacturers and dealers.
- 12:43Now we may have to give up another 1-2%
- 12:44of our margin, or we are already
- 12:46observing that prices on the market
- 12:48have become even more aggressive, which
- 12:50means that we will have to sacrifice
- 12:51even more of our margin, or perhaps
- 12:53even have to add further to that
- 12:55existing negative margin as a result of
- 12:57these developments. And we are simply
- 12:59noticing that this situation will
- 13:00continue to remain difficult for us. I
- 13:02think next year will still be a tough
- 13:04one. The entire German economy is
- 13:05struggling, as you know. And that, of
- 13:08course, also affects us as mobile home
- 13:10customers or our mobile home industry,
- 13:12and accordingly, the situation remains,
- 13:14as it has been, quite demanding. There
- 13:17are some manufacturers who are doing
- 13:19relatively well and there are also some
- 13:20manufacturers who are not doing so well
- 13:22, which is why you have to be very
- 13:24careful about who you buy your vehicle
- 13:25from. That is my big tip for you. There
- 13:29are quite a few who are not doing well
- 13:30and are not standing on such solid
- 13:32ground, especially those manufacturers
- 13:33that were newly created from the ground
- 13:35up, and perhaps also the occasional
- 13:36person who is building out their own
- 13:38vehicle. Maybe take a look behind the
- 13:40scenes and try to see if you can get
- 13:42hold of any information, because the
- 13:43last thing you want is to buy a vehicle
- 13:44for which no one will feel any
- 13:46responsibility once the purchase has
- 13:47been made and you are left to deal with
- 13:48it alone. If you have a manufacturer
- 13:50that is still in business, there will
- 13:52continue to be authorized workshops
- 13:53that you can visit, contacts available
- 13:54to you, and, most importantly, the
- 13:56various legal claims that you are still
- 13:57entitled to make against them. If the
- 13:59manufacturer or the company no longer
- 14:02exists, then you can no longer make any
- 14:04claims and then you will be more or
- 14:06less left out in the cold for the
- 14:09warranty period. We are working here
- 14:11with producers on our farm, and I have
- 14:13an exceptionally good gut feeling about
- 14:14each one of these partnerships. I
- 14:16wouldn't say that about every
- 14:18manufacturer that is outside the group
- 14:21we work with. There are some, but there
- 14:23are also a few others that I would
- 14:25rather keep my hands off of, if I am
- 14:26being completely honest about the
- 14:27situation. I don't want to name any
- 14:29names. I would simply like to speak for
- 14:31ourselves and for everything that we
- 14:32have here on the farm. There are
- 14:34manufacturers like Sunlight, Deadlefs,
- 14:35Niesmann and Bischof, Hühmer,
- 14:37Bürstner. Some of them may be doing a
- 14:40little worse or better, but overall
- 14:41they are stably positioned, possess a
- 14:43vast amount of know-how, have been
- 14:44active on the market for many years,
- 14:45have never had any cause for reproach
- 14:47in the past, have established a stable
- 14:48foundation, and with the Torgruppe in
- 14:50the background, they also have plenty
- 14:51of resources to fall back on, providing
- 14:53them with a significant financial
- 14:54cushion that ensures their long-term
- 14:55stability and continued success. And a
- 14:58manufacturer of that kind is less
- 15:00likely to succeed than some other
- 15:02manufacturer that has perhaps only been
- 15:04around for, let us say, a few months or
- 15:06maybe a year or two. With a
- 15:07manufacturer like this, it is simply
- 15:09more likely that you will still be able
- 15:11to make claims in two or three years,
- 15:13or even more importantly, in five or
- 15:15ten years, order spare parts, have a
- 15:17service performed, simply have a
- 15:19sustainable vehicle to drive, and just
- 15:21as important, the resale value will
- 15:22remain. A brand that no longer exists
- 15:25at some point is very, very bad for
- 15:27resale. A Deadlifs or a Sunlight or a
- 15:30Hümer, which will probably still be
- 15:32around in 5 to 10 years, is a car like
- 15:33that you can sell again much more
- 15:35easily. And that's where I say you can
- 15:39really get burned. If you do not bet on
- 15:41the right horse, on the right
- 15:42manufacturer, then you are going to
- 15:43find yourselves in a very difficult
- 15:45situation. And in that case, I would
- 15:47also suggest setting the discounts or
- 15:48the price advantages aside for a little
- 15:50while. Of course, that's important. The
- 15:52overall offer has to be right. You need
- 15:54to have a good price, you need to
- 15:55provide good service, and you also need
- 15:56to have the certainty that this brand
- 15:57will still be around in five years, in
- 15:59my opinion. But despite all that, I
- 16:02wouldn't always buy the latest cheap
- 16:04junk that's out there, but always make
- 16:07sure that the product also has a
- 16:09certain level of quality, made in
- 16:12Germany, but also a bit of
- 16:14sustainability. Here we have yet
- 16:16another little exotic vehicle on our
- 16:18farm, which is the Eriba K600. It
- 16:20remains, I would say, more of a kind of
- 16:22artisanal workshop, a niche product,
- 16:24yet nonetheless a successful niche
- 16:27product that is always popular,
- 16:29featuring a beautiful interior by VW.
- 16:32We have a beautiful wooden floor,
- 16:34complemented by a dark blue look that
- 16:36is finished with felt paneling. One can
- 16:39also see a bit of the Hymer influence
- 16:40coming through, but everything is kept
- 16:42in a slightly darker tone overall. You
- 16:43can also open the shower, Josch. Of
- 16:47course, the VW also has a swivel bath.
- 16:50Nice cheeks on the left and right. And
- 16:52then we also have the VW Crafter with
- 16:56163 hp in front. The vehicle now
- 16:58includes a camping package, assistance
- 17:00package, navigation system, reversing
- 17:02camera, chassis package and so on. And
- 17:05you can get it from us for € 93,840.
- 17:08I simply cannot understand for what
- 17:09reason this vehicle is not being sold,
- 17:11and perhaps you could provide an
- 17:12explanation for me down in the comments
- 17:14section. Of course, there are a few
- 17:16things included here that I know are
- 17:18being quite hotly debated across the
- 17:19internet. One example is the Ford, for
- 17:22instance, and the other is the age of
- 17:24the vehicle in question. We've had it
- 17:27here for a few years now, but when you
- 17:31think about it, it really doesn't look
- 17:34that good. We have the Deadlifts Just
- 17:38Go here with our alloy wheels, which is
- 17:39the first point where I would say that
- 17:41it is a good thing that it was not yet
- 17:42sold a couple of years ago, which is
- 17:44likely due to the fact that the
- 17:45exterior design is kept in such a very
- 17:47plain manner. But we have a vehicle for
- 17:50€ 64,000. You have a length of 6.69 m
- 17:53here. So it's well under 7 m. It has
- 17:57alloy wheels, an awning, a navigation
- 17:59system, a reversing camera, framed
- 18:01windows, and in the back it has single
- 18:04beds, a satellite system, and a 22-inch
- 18:06TV. Here you can also see the rear
- 18:09garage. Yes, it is a bit smaller, I
- 18:11would say, but nevertheless it is still
- 18:13quite large for a vehicle of this
- 18:14particular size. And very importantly,
- 18:16it has three sleeping places, so it has
- 18:18a horn. Let's take a quick look at it
- 18:20now. So here in the back are the single
- 18:22beds. Then we have a really big kitchen
- 18:25. I was driving a V66 from Sunlight.
- 18:28Awesome vehicle, but this one here
- 18:30actually has a few more advantages. The
- 18:32kitchen is bigger. We have the Dometic
- 18:34refrigerator right here, which we are
- 18:36able to open in both of the two
- 18:37directions. And just look at the
- 18:39standing height. Yes, I am 1.8 meters
- 18:41tall, and when I stand inside this
- 18:43shower here, I find that I am able to
- 18:45shower in this unit with a great deal
- 18:47of physical comfort. It has indirect
- 18:49lighting. It includes everything that
- 18:51the V6 has, but in my view, it is still
- 18:53a little bit more comfortable than the
- 18:55other one is. Furthermore, we have the
- 18:58lift bed right here in the front, the
- 19:02manual transmission, and the Ford with
- 19:04everything that constitutes its
- 19:06specific advantage. Of course, the
- 19:07timing belt is in an oil bath. I know
- 19:09the topic. But if you adhere to these
- 19:12service intervals quite strictly, I
- 19:13would even go so far as to claim that
- 19:15the vehicle is just as good as a Fiat
- 19:16Ducato. So the right oil, the right
- 19:19intervals and then you won't have any
- 19:21problems with the vehicle. There is a
- 19:23front window in the hood, but otherwise
- 19:25, it is simply a solid vehicle in my
- 19:27eyes. The same caliber of vehicle, but
- 19:29this time a Fiat Ducato, which is 2.20
- 19:31m wide and even 6 m long. Globus Camp
- 19:35T1 used to cost € 82,323. Now it
- 19:40costs € 67,999. That's almost 20%less
- 19:44. That's rather unusual for a compact
- 19:46motorhome. This vehicle also has
- 19:49everything you can imagine. Even the
- 19:53automatic transmission and top again
- 19:54compared to the Ford, straight
- 19:56navigation system, reversing camera,
- 19:58marquee, frame windows. There's even a
- 20:01bike rack here too. We have a rear
- 20:04garage that is quite wide and also
- 20:06fairly high. Um, it goes up another 5
- 20:09to 10 cm. There is room for something.
- 20:12Of course, you can also see here that
- 20:14these are the additional cushions,
- 20:15which is where the frame then finally
- 20:17comes to an end. But you would also be
- 20:19able to fit a smaller bicycle or two
- 20:20smaller bicycles into the back area
- 20:22quite easily. But you don't need them
- 20:23anyway, because you have the bike rack
- 20:25included. This is a similar floor plan,
- 20:27with the difference being that we have
- 20:28the floor-to-ceiling refrigerator here,
- 20:30which provides a capacity of 138 l. We
- 20:32have a Deadlefs build quality, which
- 20:35means indirect lighting. Something like
- 20:38that, for example, that it's covered.
- 20:40Yes, we also have a nice and
- 20:41high-quality seat cover with a lumbar
- 20:42support in the front. As I mentioned,
- 20:45you have the automatic Fiat; I have
- 20:46already told you about that before.
- 20:48That should be the 140 hp. Two burner
- 20:51stoves, a sink. The swivel bathroom is
- 20:54also available in this vehicle. The
- 20:56headroom is now a bit worse than it was
- 20:58in the Ford. So, when I look at it now,
- 21:00I can certainly notice that there is
- 21:01just a little bit less space here. Sure
- 21:03, take your shoes off, take your board
- 21:04out. There you go again. And of course
- 21:07the vehicle also has transverse beds.
- 21:09Here we also have a large storage area,
- 21:11but with dimensions of 6 meters by 2.20
- 21:13meters, you can park in any supermarket
- 21:15lot, drive into the city center, and
- 21:17even manage to find a parking spot
- 21:19somewhere in town. And in my opinion,
- 21:21you cannot say anything against it for
- 21:2467. I think it has everything. You can
- 21:26pack it up straight away and drive off.
- 21:27If you would like, we can also add
- 21:29lithium, solar power, and whatever else
- 21:30you might need to it. No problem at all
- 21:32, and then you can get going. Another
- 21:34new product. Sunlight Ibags, are you
- 21:36aware that it has also already been
- 21:37standing in Mannheim before? They're
- 21:39also here. We also have the 590, the
- 21:41Cliff 4 x 4 again in the beautiful
- 21:43Green Track Olive or whatever it's
- 21:45called. So both vehicles are here, they
- 21:48are beautiful vehicles, and in general
- 21:50most of the new models have also slowly
- 21:52arrived, so please feel free to just
- 21:53come by and see them. Our vehicles are
- 21:56open to you here. You can look at them
- 21:58at any time. We are also open on
- 22:00Sundays in Mannheim and Wertheim from
- 22:0112 noon to 5 pm. You are welcome to
- 22:03come by and take a look at the vehicles
- 22:05at your leisure, as there is no
- 22:06pressure for you to have to speak with
- 22:07a sales consultant here at any time.
- 22:10All vehicles except those that have
- 22:11already been sold and are still there
- 22:13are open. You can take a look at them
- 22:15here in the exhibition. As you can see,
- 22:17we are currently here at our caravan
- 22:19range, and as you might notice, we have
- 22:20something different standing here now,
- 22:22apart from our Touring models. We have
- 22:25actually ordered a few new vehicles
- 22:26from Eriba once again, simply because
- 22:27they are beautiful and you like to buy
- 22:29them, and because we have now also
- 22:30managed to reduce our existing Touring
- 22:31stock quite a bit, which created the
- 22:33necessary space for these new additions
- 22:34. It is called Eriba Nova Line, offers
- 22:37different feelings, and here we have a
- 22:40special one, the 425, which already
- 22:44comes with a 10%discount and is priced
- 22:46at 32,000 euros. It is a vehicle with a
- 22:49length of 6 m, a nice layout, why?
- 22:51Because it has a pop-up roof. Now you
- 22:53can see for yourselves how flat and
- 22:54narrow such a Feeling is. The Feeling
- 22:56has a width of 2.16 m, but once you
- 22:58open up the pop-up roof, you are
- 22:59presented with a genuine space miracle
- 23:01inside, and that is exactly what we are
- 23:03going to look at now. Well, what can I
- 23:05tell you about it? You have seen how
- 23:07flat and compact it is, and I am able
- 23:08to stand up quite comfortably while I
- 23:10am in here. We have a beautiful design
- 23:13here with a stone slab look, the dark
- 23:16wood. It reminds me a little bit of the
- 23:19Rotchford walnut, which is also
- 23:20included in the BMC blend. We have a
- 23:22concrete floor included, and generally
- 23:24speaking, a lovely interior in this
- 23:26vehicle, which is something that our
- 23:27customers naturally find to be very
- 23:29appealing as well. Then we have a very,
- 23:32very large wardrobe here featuring our
- 23:35felt look, and over here we also find a
- 23:38comfortable bathroom for you to use. A
- 23:42shower package is not included here,
- 23:43but the caravan is actually intended
- 23:45more for being driven to a campsite for
- 23:48your stay. And of course you can all
- 23:51sleep down here, which is where mom and
- 23:52dad will likely be, and above that we
- 23:54have the pop-up roof area, where the
- 23:56bed is conveniently designed so that it
- 23:58can be folded up with ease. Yes, and
- 24:00that means you will be able to get some
- 24:03restful sleep up there as well. So,
- 24:06this particular caravan remains as
- 24:08popular as ever within this specific
- 24:10market niche. This is by no means a
- 24:13mass-produced item when you consider
- 24:15just how comfortable it actually is and
- 24:16the many places where you can store it;
- 24:18yes, if you have a spare shed somewhere
- 24:20, you are able to put the caravan
- 24:21inside and you will then have sleeping
- 24:23accommodations for four people. I
- 24:25consider this a genuinely solid product
- 24:27, which is the reason why we have
- 24:28placed a few of them back on the yard
- 24:30again, because we know that there was a
- 24:32significant amount of demand for these
- 24:33items, and yes, ever since we have had
- 24:35them in stock, we have already managed
- 24:36to sell nearly half of them. And here
- 24:38you can see a large selection of our
- 24:39available used cars. We are also going
- 24:41to do another round of used cars with
- 24:42all of you again. In particular, a few
- 24:44rental companies are now exiting the
- 24:45rental business. I have already touched
- 24:47upon a few, but there are some bargains
- 24:49here once more, and there has been a
- 24:51lot of movement since the last round of
- 24:53browsing the yard and our selection of
- 24:54used cars. So subscribe to the channel,
- 24:56activate the notification bell, and
- 24:57then you will not miss out on the next
- 24:58round of used cars coming up. From
- 24:59being a curse to a scourge for
- 25:01motorhome dealers, this vehicle has
- 25:02cost us more beads of sweat than
- 25:04anything else that we have had to deal
- 25:05with until now. And now we are going to
- 25:07put it back in the yard for ourselves.
- 25:09We have the Crosscamp Opel Flex here.
- 25:11This is a used vehicle for € 42,890.
- 25:15It has 65,000 km. The Opel Safira Light
- 25:20is the basis here. We have a nice
- 25:23kitchen in it. We have an infotainment
- 25:25system in the front. You experience a
- 25:27car-like flair or ambience here in this
- 25:29particular vehicle. You can drive this
- 25:32vehicle like a car and of course use it
- 25:34like a car. If I look at it now, I
- 25:36would say it is not much longer than a
- 25:38BMW 3-series, just to give you an
- 25:40example. So parking and city driving
- 25:42are not an issue at all. What I find
- 25:45interesting is that the vehicles start
- 25:47at around € 55,000 to € 60,000
- 25:49these days, which is a really fair
- 25:50price. Um, so having one here for €
- 25:5442 is really cool. By raising the top,
- 25:57four people can sleep inside, and you
- 25:58remain incredibly mobile while
- 25:59traveling around in this vehicle. Well,
- 26:01those beads of sweat didn't break out
- 26:03because the vehicle itself is
- 26:04inherently bad. It certainly has a very
- 26:06good reason to exist, but we had far
- 26:08too many of them, and they were far too
- 26:10expensive, especially when considering
- 26:11the standards of that time. Now, if you
- 26:14order a new Crosscamp—and other
- 26:15dealers have confirmed this—the
- 26:16Crosscamp Opels, which are the urban
- 26:18campers from Crosscamp, are currently
- 26:19the most popular models that Crosscamp
- 26:21has available, and these vehicles sell
- 26:22extremely well, meaning that you can
- 26:24sometimes even do a good business by
- 26:25choosing one of these specifically for
- 26:26your next purchase or for your personal
- 26:28needs as well. And that is the reason
- 26:30why we will have Crosscamp here on the
- 26:32yard once again. We were, like a child
- 26:35who has been burned, a bit afraid of
- 26:37putting some back on our farm again,
- 26:38but we are well aware of the fact that
- 26:40it actually works quite well. We also
- 26:42sold Crosscamps without having any.
- 26:45That's why we'll have some again soon.
- 26:48Keyword: burned child. Unfortunately,
- 26:51we have also ordered far too many
- 26:52Tourings in the past, I am afraid to
- 26:54say. Then there are vehicles or floor
- 26:56plans that were not in high demand,
- 26:58such as the 560, for instance; in
- 26:59contrast, there are others that
- 27:00actually perform quite well for us. We
- 27:02have also reordered the Touring models
- 27:04again, for instance in the Color
- 27:05version, or generally layouts that
- 27:07function a bit better, and I believe
- 27:08those will turn out to be quite
- 27:09beautiful once they arrive and are
- 27:11ready for you. I'm really looking
- 27:12forward to the vehicles. We still have
- 27:15a few clearance Tourings here. 560s
- 27:17with a € 10,000 discount, almost 30%.
- 27:22Yes, we have already sold a great
- 27:24number of these vehicles over the
- 27:25course of the last few months, and that
- 27:27is simply because of the price. We
- 27:30really stopped having much fun with
- 27:31those business activities anymore, but
- 27:32that should not be a concern for you;
- 27:34rather, it is a significant benefit or
- 27:35advantage for you that you are now able
- 27:37to profit from it. And now we have two
- 27:39or three more cars here that are a bit
- 27:41more expensive in terms of their prices
- 27:43. We're subsidizing them now and you
- 27:45can get them from us at a really good
- 27:47price. That's also exciting. Deadlifts
- 27:49Globus 4x4 Performance without
- 27:51all-wheel drive. It is currently
- 27:53sitting in our yard and still needs to
- 27:54be priced. Having just arrived, we have
- 27:56also prepared it again for you, and it
- 27:58is now available here for you to take a
- 27:59look at. What we also have here is of
- 28:02course the XLA T16 T46 in three
- 28:04versions. In Wertheim they are
- 28:07available, and in Mannheim there is
- 28:09also an XLR Family, plus of course many
- 28:10other vehicles from Dethleffs, Sunlight
- 28:12, and Hymer that you have not had the
- 28:14opportunity to see for yourselves just
- 28:15yet. You can simply visit our homepage.
- 28:18So, I would like to come back to the
- 28:20570 Crossover that I have already
- 28:21discussed. You have to think about it,
- 28:24€ 17,000 discount, which is already
- 28:2610%on a new vehicle. That's simply
- 28:30because we ordered a few of them. These
- 28:33are really nice BF Goodridge vehicles
- 28:34and that's also roughly the price
- 28:36that's currently prevailing on the
- 28:37market. I just want to show you that we
- 28:39price our vehicles right away in a way
- 28:41that we can also realistically sell
- 28:43them to you, so that you are aware at
- 28:44the same time that you do not need to
- 28:46spend time negotiating the price with
- 28:48us to any great extent when you visit
- 28:50us. We now have the 570 Crossover
- 28:51available in the new version. You can
- 28:53see the black, you can see the Tay in
- 28:55the back. Plus this honeycomb look,
- 28:58which we are also used to from the
- 28:59Venture S. We have black add-on parts,
- 29:01for instance the rear ladder, the spare
- 29:03wheel carrier is included and the
- 29:04awning is also finished in black, and
- 29:06accordingly the whole thing here is in
- 29:07a silk-matte black, including the
- 29:09plastic side sills located at the
- 29:10bottom. I think it looks really good.
- 29:14As always, we also have our very large
- 29:16rear garage here in comparison to the
- 29:19length of the vehicle, and this can
- 29:21also be loaded with 350 kg. A truly
- 29:24beautiful living environment has been
- 29:26installed in this vehicle, featuring a
- 29:28leather interior that has been refined
- 29:31here with the orange stitching and
- 29:33these orange accents. Otherwise, we
- 29:36have the classic 570 body. We have a
- 29:38swivel bathroom in the vehicle, which
- 29:40many people really, really like. We
- 29:42have the 138 l Slimt refrigerator from
- 29:47Tedford. Then we have our comfortable
- 29:50beds in the back with lots of storage
- 29:51space. And yes, this is the 570
- 29:56Crossover. We still have a few of those
- 30:00. We also still have a great many
- 30:02beautiful all-wheel drive Mercedes
- 30:03camper vans, so definitely just come
- 30:05and visit us at our locations in
- 30:07Wertheim or in Mannheim. Take a look at
- 30:09the vehicles on site, and I am, of
- 30:10course, looking forward to next year,
- 30:12even though it will certainly be a very
- 30:13strenuous and busy one. If you make a
- 30:16purchase from the company GMA, in
- 30:17conjunction with the manufacturers that
- 30:19we have, then you do not need to worry
- 30:20about the future or about
- 30:21sustainability, or that at some point
- 30:22in time there will be no one left who
- 30:24is available to assist you with any
- 30:25concerns or anything of that nature. We
- 30:28have also invested significantly in our
- 30:31service personnel, which many of our
- 30:33customers have reported back to us
- 30:34quite positively, and that is, to some
- 30:35extent, the future for us as well.
- 30:38There are more things planned, but I
- 30:40can't say for sure yet. That will
- 30:43probably come in the near future. If
- 30:45you do not want to miss out on this
- 30:46entire journey with our company, then I
- 30:47would be very happy if you were to
- 30:49subscribe to our channel. I would also
- 30:51be very pleased if you could share your
- 30:52feedback in the comments section and if
- 30:54you give our video a thumbs up and
- 30:55leave a hype to support us as well. And
- 30:57then we'll see each other again next
- 30:58time. See you soon.
