No signs of the stock arrival yet. Paul [Mactab] has told me they expect the vans to be under cover in the main showroom area that is currently used for awnings and a GoPod.
They will start taking service bookings at end of this month for next year, but as yet are unaware of costs. I'm guessing this is because of the Hymer water ingress inspection.

I've just had a look at the list of Hymer/Eriba dealers and I've had a bit of a flashback. https://www.eriba.com/en/service-and-acc...ler-search.html
When I first called into Red Lion the manager said something that initially did not register as making sense. He said a few new dealerships had be granted.
Since last year we have Red Lion, Automotive Leisure / Leisure First split? and Broad Lane Leisure Ltd in Warwickshire showing on the list. Just putting it out there for discussion.

Quick thought - has Cameron (or someone else) led a split from AL to set up on their own?

I don't know. I just wish the website/s would be updated so folk know what is happening. If I was looking for a van at present I'd be steering well clear. A customer needs confidence in a dealer and I see nothing to instil this confidence with the present uncertainty.

Red Lion update.

I called this morning and have been told vans are now expected NEXT YEAR.
It am guessing that Covid is heavily effecting production and supply. In another forum post a Spanish member Neil stated no 2021 orders being taken in Spain.Triton 418 or Troll 550.... or something else?
ALV stock is showing as due in April and has been for a month or so, so supply is limited.

Got an email today from ALV that says that they are widening the range of vans and motorhomes that they are selling. Wonder if this is also part of the same thing that the normal supplies of caravans including Eriba are just not going to be available for the immediate future because of Covid interupting their production?

A friend has purchased a new VW van to be converted to a campervan and has been quoted by the converters Easter at the earliest to make a start on the work. Apparently they are so busy and are also struggling sourcing everything.

A suppose a sunny side for us who already have their van is that the value will probably increase, not that we would intend selling....................

Binky who is having problems with water ingress said on Facebook that she called Red Lion Caravans and they told her :

"not yet dealers so can’t take in any services or warranty work"

They are not doing any service or warranty work on any make of van at present. They have accepted mine for a service and water ingress test to take place in March.
I have also heard, contrary to my previous news, that the vans are due in soon. This would seem to be correct as work has started on clearing the under cover area where they will be on display.

They claim they are not dealers but they are listed as dealers on the Hymer website. They may not have any Eriba stock but surely they must at least honour warranty claims. I presume they are honouring their current caravan sales warranties including repairs.

Mrs eribaMotters reliably informs me that Red Lion have posted a picture on Facebook of first Eriba's to arrive. Looks like a silver Troll 530? and a white Triton 420? No details on there website. I might have a little trip out on Tuesday.

Colin

edit - they are actually a 540 and 320 - pictures available if you use the used caravans search facility on there website

You might tell them they've got an apostrophe where there shouldn't be one.

Eriba's indeed. Sheesh...
