Value?

Post: # 33623Post Gordmac

Anyone care to estimate the value of a 2007 Leisure Campers (Skarosser) EC6l?
I was over in the Ardnamurachan peninsula recently, the roads are appalling there, and noticed the Hilux chassis started to crack. Presumably it isn't up to the job of carrying a demountable since 2007! I am welding it up at the moment but wouldn't trust it with the demountable again.
I am looking at getting a newer Ford Ranger to replace it, apparently they aren't quite as horrible as a Hilux. Another options would be to sell and move to the dark side and get a motorhome, an expensive option but pickups are very expensive too. I suspect a motorhome would be much easier to insure, presumably having multiple insurers drives down the price?
Anyway, welcome to my first world problem!

Hi again!
This late in year is not best for sales of campers, at least here in UK, looking at asking prices in Europe however suggests average of around 13,000€

for here there's same model on sale on Ebay just now asking £12,000 which sounds a little on high side nice though they are;https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/255749516759 ... R7DAoe7zYA

Hello, I’d maybe be interested in purchasing. I was looking at the one currently on eBay , but as Zildjian mentioned a bit expensive plus the WC/Shower area has been removed. It’s also an 8 hour drive away for me!

I take it it’s the longer model with WC that you have? Where about are you based?

Thanks, Fraser.

Yes the Ebay sale is missing its washroom and grey water tank both of which need replacing to get best price, there is a buyers guide for Swedish SKarosser that owners here (including me) have contributed to;

Ok, another reply has vanished! I am guessing the post reply doesn't do so.

It seems the submit not post reply works. What happens to the post when you use post reply?

I responded earlier using the quote option. Using quick reply this time then press submit. Don’t thing the post reply works in that context, think it opens another dialogue box with more uptions as opposed to the quick reply.

Not sure if that option is what you are referring to, but using
