So we'll have to send our Super Sleuth Mr Motters up the road to investigate

Yes they are Mike. More information to follow, probably tomorrow.

Because there was much interest regarding the above dealership, especially from Eribafolk facebook, I decided to "message" them yesterday evening to find out more about them.

They were very quick to reply and seeing as our techie chap Mr Motters lives only a stone's throw away from them, he kindly went in to see them today on behalf of all Eriba owners from the North West.

These are his findings:-

"I met with young Will and his boss early this afternoon. He loves Eribas and has been trying to get them for some time, just signing the contract a few days ago. He believes other dealerships have also recently been granted.
He admits the learning curve is going to be steep but he is excited about the prospect and is very committed.

A new building is going up to house the Eriba range along with the Go-Pod that he sells some 200+ a year. The market for these vans is similar to Eribas, mature folk who dislike white wobbly boxes, so they should link well together.

Servicing work will hopefully start in September and judging by his current prices it sounds as if he will be very competitive. He was shocked at how much other dealers charge.

His range of new Eribas will be appearing in September, which he has to order soon. He is sad that the Puck is no longer available and cannot really understand why. If he has any say in vans, I advised 540 and 320. I know 535 is also gaining interest.

Extras can also be added to his advance orders and I suggested the electric heating element. I mentioned how some like hot water, alloys, spare, silver or white ouside but with stoneguard and most now go for a mover. The preferred mover for them is Powertouch as they have special brackets made so these fit the GoPod. Again prices look good on these.

I got the impression the dealership will be in it for the long haul and they want to be recognised as approachable and friendly. They will have a good look through the forum and learn as much as they can.

I left my details in case they have any questions.

They currently sell Kampa awnings and will continue to do so for Eriiba models."
