During the trial of Peter Murrell, former SNP chief executive, it emerged he purchased a Niesmann and Bischoff Smove 7.4e motorhome for £124,550 using party funds in October 2020. The vehicle was seized by police in April 2023 with only 4 miles on the odometer, containing household items and touring maps of Scotland, England, Wales, and Ireland. Murrell created a false invoice, altering the vehicle description to 'van' and registered it in his name. Former First Minister Nicola Sturgeon said she had never seen the motorhome.
