Quick question, when I MOT my 'van do I take it to a motorhome place and get MOT & habitation check in one swoop or do I have to take it to a separate place for MOT?
Thanks

I've done a quick search here and on WC but not much coming up. Is there a section/thread that covers this subject in a bit more depth?
If not, I have a current question. Have been offered a habitation check for an extra £150 on the Laika van we have bought before we go back to pick it up. I'm mulling over whether we should go for this or not. Is it actually worth having this done (the van is a year 2000 Laika Ecovip 400i)?
Testing the water here... I'd be very happy to pay an experienced member of the forum a fee instead if they happened to be at the same meet with us later in the year, or anywhere in the vicinity of where we live, and would be willing to give the Laika the once over when it's actually parked up outside? Just a thought...
here here, pjIt's a tricky one Marie, but would they say for instance "That motorhome we have sold you is riddled with damp and the gas system is dangerous, thanks for the £150, oh and it will be another £1k for the repairs" - if that happened could you back out of the sale at that stage?
Not that I am suggesting anything like that, the Laikas are very well made vans and I'm sure you and Neil gave it a thorough look over.
But if it meant losing a sale, would they give it an impartial check?
Personally I would pay an independent surveyor to do the check within the 'cooling off' period just for peace of mind.
