    I don't know why but I am somewhat addicted to watching your channel. I'm not particularly in the market for a motorhome but do enjoy your tours of them.

    This is a smart little unit. I like how the shower transforms. The tv stand is brilliant. No automation to break down, and tucks away nicely. 👍👍

    Every yacht should use that TV assembly. It’s simple, probably very easy to either fix or replace, and doesn’t take a year to pop up compared to the electric ones we see all the time

    Lovely vehicle, one of the key bits of info everyone needs with a Motorhome or caravan his max weight, this model is a max weight of 3500kg, so you don’t need a U.K. C1 licence to drive this, so if you have passed your test after 1997 (Ie limited to 3500kg on your licence) or you are 70 or over (lost your c1 unless you have had a medical and got it back), you don’t have to worry about getting your C1 licence.

  • @loganholmberg2295
    @loganholmberg2295 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Now, that's a proper layout. As someone who has camped for 30+ years the only thing I'd change is:
    - More ground clearance
    - Larger bathroom door. If you got a belly I could see that not being fun.
    - Reverse the fridge door. I've got a paralyzed leg and I'd probably sit on the bed while cooking and having the fridge open onto the bed seems problematic. Especially if you looking for a late-night snack or drink.😅

    The shower cubicle is a brilliant idea, I have noticed Nick in recent tours right hand drive units, with a house door on the right, who wants to exit a vehicle on the right hand side on to a live lane, you might be parked in a layby, undoubtedly well made, good video.

    That is really nice. I like having 4 seats (good for a family). And, if you have 2 people who don't want to share a bed it has the option to have a separate bed for fussy ones (like me!). Its not ridicously big (unlike the American ones)...although certainly not the smallest in the market, but should fit along (most) British roads with room to spare. A Microwave would be nice though.

    Clever? That was passed up ages ago By Knaus and their Sky Wave 650 MF. Despite the long name of this "Rig" the layout has quite a twist - a second "bedroom" that drops from the heavens - literally. Oh and a proper toilet room that transforms into a clever shower compartment. Did I mention the huge "garage" stowage area? And the price (when converted) is far less than most of the comparable American RVs - may we borrow a cup of that clever - PLEASE? We "Yanks" are missing a lot by relying on what has become decades old RV ideas and technology. Nice one, Nick.

    • @philjohnwilliams
      @philjohnwilliams 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      It is almost certainly not real wood panelling ( think melamine coated particle board ) and using it everywhere probably saves the company money by allowing the company to stock fewer varieties of sheet stock, as well as fewer material changeovers on the production line. Would also imagine the smaller interior pieces would allow them to use offcuts that might otherwise be wind up in the scrap bin.

  • @bobblyth6905
    @bobblyth6905 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    It’s obviously a European spec with right hand drive, so the door (and awning) are on the wrong side of the van for the UK, making it dangerous when entering and leaving whilst parked on the road. Also surprised that for £68,000 you don’t get what most people would say is essential these days I.e. a solar panel !! You don’t say if it has one or two leisure batteries and, I could be wrong but, when hooked up to the mains does the cupboard door have to remain open, exposing all the “bits and pieces” ? Lastly, yet again, we have a van that can squeeze in six people sleeping but has only four belted seats for travelling. Seriously, can you imagine six adults living in harmony in this unit ????
