Do caravans have a future?

This week on the Motorhome Matt Podcast, Matt and Keith aim to answer one crucial question: do caravans have a future? They explore the shifting landscape of the caravan industry, discussing declining sales and the challenges facing manufacturers and dealers.

Matt sits down with Darren Bull from Atlantic Caravans to unpack factors affecting caravan sales, from the post-pandemic market shift to consumer confidence and economic pressures. With over 20 years of experience, Darren shares valuable insights into what's been happening behind the scenes in the caravan world and what needs to change for caravans to stay relevant in the years to come.

Plus, Matt shares the lowdown on two major events in January 2025: the Caravan, Motorhome, and Holiday Show in Manchester, and the Warners Motorhome and Campervan Sale in Kenilworth. Matt will take the stage at the Expert Theatre in Manchester to talk about everything from planning European trips to getting Wi-Fi on the road. Find out how you can get your tickets for free!

In the Q&A, Matt answers your questions on winterising motorhomes, bike protection, and insurance tips for non-UK residents. Whether you’re wondering how to protect your motorhome during the cold months or trying to find the right insurance, Matt’s practical advice is just what you need.
