Used Motorhomes For Sale Adelaide
Motorhomes provide a unique and efficient combination of travel without compromising comfort, style or safety. But motorhomes aren't cheap. And they shouldn't be when safety is a priority on the road. But a pre-loved vehicle is still worth considering if you're on a budget. Camperagent RV Super Centre stocks a wide range of used motorhomes in Adelaide, from compact 2-berth models for solo travellers and couples to 6-berth deluxe models for families and those looking forward to enjoying their golden years exploring the open road.

They're also designed to keep you comfortable regardless of the weather, with features like double-glazed windows, gel-coated walls inside and out, and high-quality insulated panels. Inside, you'll find everything you need for life on the road—depending on the model, that could include cosy beds, air-con, a kitchen setup, a comfy lounge area, and even a separate shower and toilet.
FAQs - Used Motorhomes in South Australia
Most motorhomes can be driven with a standard full car license, as long as the Gross Vehicle Mass (GVM) is under 4.5 tonnes. If the motorhome exceeds this weight—such as in the case of an 8-berth, bus, or truck conversion—you'll need a Light Rigid (LR) or Medium Rigid (MR) license. You must hold a full Class C Australian driver's license for at least one year to apply for either. You'll also need to pass written and practical tests tailored to heavy vehicles. However, the specific requirements may differ by state.
When looking at used motorhomes for sale in Adelaide, take your time—it's still a significant investment. Consider the motorhome's age and condition. The model year is important, but so is its overall condition and how well it's been maintained. The condition of the engine and chassis is key to its longevity, as is interior wear. Request maintenance history and check for recent repairs and upgrades, including battery replacements, engine work and new tyres. Ensure the house battery (for lights, the fridge, etc.) holds charge, and check that the solar panels are fitted and working correctly. Test the water system (taps, shower, toilet, plumbing) to ensure everyone is in working order, and check for leaks or dampness. Ensure the motorhome is compliant regarding its registration and roadworthy status. It should also have standard safety features like seatbelts, airbags, smoke alarms, and fire extinguishers. Make sure the key appliances (fridge, stove, AC, heating) are working correctly, and the layout suits your needs—is there enough storage, are the beds comfortable, and is there enough room for cooking, sleeping and resting? Finally, if you plan to go off-road, ensure it has the proper setup, including water tanks, solar power, and a power inverter.
