I've not driven the Excel TD, but there is no doubt 'some' of them had handling problems. It sure did seem to vary a lot. I would have purchased one (really liked them), but at the time I needed a third seat so that meant a Roadtrek Popular for me, removed the seat and box under it though then put the seat back about 7 years ago.
If I found a 'good' one, I would definitely consider buying it. Given this market concerning 'availability', if a new Beyond with everything and extra lithium watts shows up near me it is sold. One reason is much like yours "I have money but my time in existance is up for question." For me, it needs to be sooner rather that later, or I'll be remaining with the 05/04 190P. Zero complains about my circumstances, I'm a very lucky fellow.
Hope you find one. Please keep us posted.
