Christmas is coming but family-run Simpsons Motorhomes is already looking to spring with a preview event for new model year products.

East Anglia's largest motorhome dealer, with more than 50 years of experience, is holding a special preview event at its Great Yarmouth base on Friday, December 4 and Saturday, December 5 to preview more than a dozen of the first new 2016 model year vehicles from converters including Auto-Sleeper, Auto-Trail, Bessacarr, Eldiss and Rapido.

Sales director Belinda Crick said the 2016 stock was now reaching showrooms, following the annual Motorhome and Caravan Show in October at Birmingham's NEC, so Simpsons's event was a chance to view the new motorhomes with the latest features and specifications while also getting into the Christmas spirit. 'Everyone can take a break from Christmas shopping and have a mince pie or sausage roll with us,' she said. And with more than 500 letters sent to people on the Simpsons Motorhomes database, the event is also a chance to meet up with existing customers.

With the new 2016 models now arriving, people will be thinking about changing or buying a motorhome. Simpsons has already sold some new 2016 models which customers had pre-ordered.

'People are definitely thinking about next year and, if anyone wants a motorhome for next March that is not something we have coming through in stock, or they want some options, they need to be ordering it at this time of year.'
