Loads in your price range on ebay here. I would forget dealers, their prices are eye watering & I'm sure they are all in cahoots to keep retail prices high. Irish prices are generally higher, certainly are on the website linked to here, many Irish folks come over to the 'big island' to buy caravans/motorhomes.
You are now discovering that motorhomes of any age are poor value. Anything more than 15yrs old you may find engine spares becoming difficult to source as well. Your best bet is to buy private as cheap as poss, as new as poss or go on probably what you know already, car/caravan is far more cost effective than motorhome which is only for the relatively wealthy.
If you are ok with lhd & fancy sourcing one from Germany you will get a better deal, look on mobile.de, put make you want & price into search. Most German dealers speak good English & will put vehicle on temporary export plates to get you home. Putting it onto UK plates is not hard.

Opensauce - MH's are not of poor value if they serve the purpose for the owner and the owner enjoys it. I used to have a motorhome and loved it. We used to caravan, but moved into a motorhome because I have a chronic health problem, which means I need quick access to the loo! The motorhome was ideal for us, as we travelled way off the beaten track for some marvellous daytrips which would have been impractical and even impossible towing a caravan.
