The Touring range of Eribas that you are referring to are expensive, even in their home country, so you will have to dig a bit deeper into your pocket. On the other hand, by virtue of their unusual design, with a bit of care and usual maintenance, they last forever and it is not uncommon to see 40 year old examples on the road.

Jon,

Good luck finding a pre-owned Eriba, you'll certainly need it - they usually sell inside a week.

We have a Triton 410 - the one with two single beds / rear dinette and a front dinette 3rd bed. And as Lutz says they're bomb-proof, just laugh at the stories of other vans problems with cracking panels, water ingress, bad build quality, too heavy noseweights, etc.

A number of UK owners have taken the route of buying pre-owned from Holland - there are more dealers and you are fishing from a much bigger pond, and consequently they are cheaper.

But in the UK, expect a ten year old Eriba to have depreciated by between 40% and 50%, and since they rarely change the interiors, you'd be had pressed to tell the difference with a new van.

Take a look at www.eriba-amiga.co.uk and look in the for-sale section (nothing at this moment), and try the link to the eriba owners photo board - which also has a for-sale section.

Many thanks guys.

I can but try, and your right they do fetch a few quid don't they. but holding good money isn't a bad thing when it comes time for a change.

I sure beats the wife looking for handbags and shoes for a while.
