Wingamm returns to the UK

-

Italian manufactur­er, Wingamm, which builds motorhomes with unique monocoque bodyshells, is returning to the UK market and has appointed its first dealer – BC Motorhomes in Ayr, Scotland. More dealers are expected to be appointed later in the year.

Wingamm motorhomes are compact (from 5.4m) and have several notable features, including those fibreglass monocoque (one-piece) bodyshells, which come with a 15-year warranty against water ingress, and drop-down beds fitted longitudin­ally for easier access.

Wingamm has been producing monocoque bodyshells since 1977, and is the only Italian manufactur­er that is still family-owned and independen­t.

There are three Wingamm models available in the UK, all based on the Fiat Ducato with a 2.3-litre, 140bhp engine as standard: the Brownie (from £70,849), City-Suite (from £60,913) and Oasi (from £68,980 to £82,534).

These range from 5.4m to 6.9m in length. They will be available with an oven for UK customers, plus a wide choice of options.

Commenting on the appointmen­t of BC Motorhomes, Lorena Turri,

Wingamm’s Commercial Director, said, “As the only independen­t and family-run motorhome manufactur­er in Italy, we are pleased to start working with another family-run motorhome specialist in the UK – BC Motorhomes – who are as passionate about motorhomes and customer service as we are. We know they will provide a profession­al service to everyone who buys a Wingamm.”

Calum Watson, Director of the new ‘Wingamm UK’ and founder of BC Motorhomes, added, “Motorhomes are my biggest passion, so I am delighted to add an exceptiona­l and distinctiv­e brand like Wingamm to our portfolio of luxury brands. They really are very impressive vehicles. We sold our first examples incredibly quickly, and are now looking forward to introducin­g Wingamm motorhomes to more people across the UK in 2021.”

Wingamm UK hopes to organise a national roadshow this year with a selection of its range. In the meantime, BC Motorhomes is offering video tours of all models and nationwide delivery.
