    Wow, looks actually spacious inside! The wetroom is decent, the beds are really nice, enough space in the kitchen, great fridge/freezer for the size. And pretty discreet on the outside! Sweet! Cheers!

    I like how they separated the areas. Instead of angular blocks they used soft, rounded section that make the entire van look bigger. That and the very well designed lighting make this one stand out! Thanks for the tour!

    £75k is still a lot of money, but look at what you get for it!
    The design and construction of the interior is superb IMO, and it appears to be well put together. I love the fact that you can turn the drivers seat round to give more seating within the camper area itself.
    Another great Motorhome and review Nick, thank you. 👍

      My friend has just bought a home made one that's very similar, it's a 2011 sprinter and for that it only cost him£4,500. It was built by a plumber so it's got a great water and heading system.

    Having showered a few times in a wet bath in a travel trailer, I wish there was a place to hook the shower head over head, I hate having to hold it and shower. In addition, I wish there was a foot operated on off switch, water conservation would be enhanced. This all might be picky, but just offering suggestions for continuous improvement. Would also like foot operated switch/valve for kitchen sink, again with goal of water conservation.

    @barryoconnor431 3 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    Nice piece of kit but for £75,000 I would expect nothing less than perfection. I would imagine that same design and spec on a Fiat/Peugeot chassis would be about £15/20,000 less.

    I like it only I'd modify it so that the shelf in the back doors would slide out. Also I saw the TV in the sleeping area but is there one in the main living area. Would be cool if there was an extra cushion to enlarge the bed like the boats have.

  • @darrenpardoe
    @darrenpardoe 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Space is a premium in most vans. The cooker looks great but sitting on the countertop is space that could have been used for food preparation, form over function!
    Why separate the controls for heating (need to climb over the seat to get at) & 12v, water etc?
    The table support near the 3rd seat is at shin/foot level, looks like someone will lose some skin on that one.
    The mattress partly covers the windows? When a quilt or other bedding is on the mattress your not going to have much of a view!
    No cupboard for longer clothing like shirts, coats etc.
    This van has not been well thought out. The van sure looks pretty, but it's all bling.

    Oh, right hand drive, rats! Otherwise I would have put in a bid. No can do in Canada, I’d get mixed up. Plus , it would be costly to set up a 240 volt charge line as here it’s 120 volt systems. All that said, it’s a beauty.
