I spoke with the importer 3 days before the Caravan and Motorhome show in Auckland and he said, don't worry, we have 5 of that model coming in November, there's not going to be a problem. By the time I arrived at the show on Saturday morning for my first personal inspection to confirm my purchase they had all sold out.
They have more coming in 2022 but can't give me a price or date due to exploding shipping rates and possible further lockdowns in Germany. One thing is for sure...its going to be a LOT more than $178,000 that I was hoping to buy one for at the show, most probably well over $200,000 :( We hope to hire that model this summer and decide from there.
We need to be absolutely sure this is the right one for us if we're going to go north of $200K.
