Used Motorhomes For Sale Perth
The Caravan Industry Association of Australia continues to report strong demand for RV travel, reinforcing that motorhomes remain a popular and active RV travel category in Australia. At George Day RV Super Centre, you’ll find a range of pre-owned motorhomes, with options for different budgets, layouts, and travel styles. Buying pre-owned is one of the smartest ways to get into motorhome travel — if you know what to look for and where to buy.
For many buyers, the goal is simple: get more value without giving up comfort or reliability. The challenge is knowing whether a used motorhome is actually a good buy or a costly mistake waiting to happen. This guide can help you understand what pre-owned brands and models we stock, what makes a good second-hand purchase, and how to avoid common buying mistakes.
<h2>What Is a Second-Hand Motorhome?</h2>
A second-hand motorhome is a pre-owned vehicle that has already been registered and driven, often with varying kilometres, features, and levels of wear. Unlike new models, used motorhomes vary widely in condition and price, may include upgrades or modifications, and often offer better value for the same budget. So for many buyers, the appeal is simple: more features for less money.
At George Day, we stock a wide range of 2-, 4-, and 6-berth models from leading brands like Windsor, Winnebago, KEA and Talvor. Models range from older value options to near-new vehicles, and, because used stock changes regularly, visiting a Perth dealership gives you the advantage of comparing multiple vehicles in person.
Second Hand Motorhomes for Sale Perth: Why Consider?
Buying a used motorhome is often about maximising value. Some of the main advantages include:
- Lower upfront cost compared to new models.
- Access to higher-spec layouts within your budget.
- Reduced depreciation — the biggest drop has already happened.
- Immediate availability (no wait times).
George Day Do: A buyer considering a new entry-level motorhome may instead afford a larger, better-equipped used model for a similar price — with more storage, a bathroom, and upgraded features.

<h2>What to Check When Buying a Used Motorhome</h2>
This is the most important step in buying a second-hand motorhome. According to RAC WA, vehicle inspections help buyers understand the true mechanical condition before purchasing. Always inspect the vehicle in person if possible as photos rarely tell the full story.
It’s also worth taking your time during the inspection, opening cupboards, testing features, and asking questions about how the vehicle has been used and maintained. If you’re unsure, bringing along someone with mechanical knowledge can also help you spot issues you might miss. Things to consider include:
- Service history — regular servicing is a strong positive sign.
- Layout practicality — does it actually suit your travel style?
- Water damage or leaks — walls, ceilings and seals should be checked.
- Appliances — fridge, stove, plumbing, and electrics should be checked.
- Tyres and mechanical condition — age, wear, performance should be checked.
- Interior condition — wear and tear, upholstery, and cabinetry should be checked.
George Day Don’t Do: Avoid focusing on price and ignoring a motorhome’s condition. A cheaper motorhome with hidden issues can quickly become more expensive than a better-maintained option.

FAQs: Second Hand Motorhomes For Sale Perth
Yes. Used motorhomes can be very reliable if they have been properly maintained. The key is checking service history, condition, and how the vehicle has been used. Many well-kept motorhomes continue performing well for years. Buying from a reputable Perth dealer also adds confidence, as vehicles are typically inspected before sale.
There isn’t a set number that makes a motorhome “too high” in kilometres. A well-looked-after motorhome with higher mileage can still be a solid option, while one with low kilometres but poor maintenance history may be less reliable. It’s best to look at overall condition and service history first, then consider the kilometres as part of the bigger picture when comparing options.
Yes. Used motorhomes often represent excellent value. Because depreciation has already occurred, you can usually get more features, better layouts, or a higher-spec model for the same budget as buying new. This is one of the main reasons buyers choose second-hand motorhomes.
Some pre-owned motorhomes may come with dealer-backed warranties or extended warranty options, depending on the vehicle and dealership. This is another advantage of buying through a dealer rather than privately. It’s always worth asking what coverage is available before making a decision.
Yes. Many dealerships offer finance options for used motorhomes, making it easier to spread the cost over time. Approval will depend on factors such as the vehicle’s age and your financial situation, but finance is commonly available for well-presented used models.
Buying from a dealer generally offers more peace of mind. You can inspect multiple vehicles, ask questions, and often access warranty or service options. Private sales may be cheaper, but they often offer less transparency and no after-sales support. Many buyers prefer dealers for the added confidence they offer.
