Thats the first campervan I've looked at in a long time and thought "that would do for me!" 😄
Thanks for the comment. It was a nice van. We will go and look at a standard model to check that out too.
Worth a look 👀
Rachel & David 💕
Great van, fantastic company, but the owners oh dear 🙂 Debz was so tempted to buy this when we saw it for sale, really is a lovely van, well done David, great video, Trev
Thanks Trev - can see why you would be tempted when it came up for sale - nice looking van isn’t it - thanks again, all the very best, David & Rachel 👍
Hi David a great video as ever and have followed Rick and heather for a long time now and thought that the process they went through to replace pearl was really interesting and i would do much the same
I can see how it would benefit you Rachel and roxy and would give you so much more space but also two areas inside and S&L like consort are good as you can make your van your own way or have a set spec so any touches you wanted you can add which is great
Glad the S&L are on the shortlist and look forward to your visit to them! All the best to you Rachel and Roxy Daniel
Hi Daniel, yes it was interesting to follow, be interesting to see if we end up at the same. Quite a few folks have said Consort too. It's surprising how many considerations there are when you look into it. Thanks as always, All the very best, David & Rachel 👍
Great look around David, glad you liked her. I did forget to mention the tables are stored over the cab.
I hope the video does well for you 🙏
Thanks again for letting me take a look around - it’s really good to see a van in use also rather than in a showroom as it gives a realistic context. Enjoy your holiday 😀 all the best, David 👍
Really nice van, we have some seriously good converters now S&L, IH, Consort & Vantage spring to mind. Being a VW fan most of my years the Crafter was top of our list when choosing our current van.
Thank you for your comment. I’m really glad some of the smaller converters are getting air play these days. It was a lovely van. We want to go and see a “standard” one
Rachel & David 💕
Check out Consort vans as well, we have a Pace on order ,nice video ,we followed Rick and Heather on the thought processes for their buying ,but went with Consort
Thank you - appreciate the tip - we have had a Quick Look around Consort but not a detailed look around - out of interest if you don’t mind me asking was there anything particular swung you to Consort or was it just the particular layout?
All the best, David 👍
I do like Rick and Heathers van and will watch with interest to see if you go the same way. Take care Gill
Thanks Gill - will be interesting to see, We’re trying not to lock in fully until we have a final 3-5 on the short list but definitely interesting - all the best, David & Rachel 👍
One thing with these non branded makes is the carpet lining starts to smell after time if you cook in your van
Morning - thanks for your comment. That is actually a really good point - we were also a little bit worried about Roxy in case she was mucky and shook on it.
Very good point.
Thank you 🙏
Rachel & David 💕
Will be interesting to see what you think and, in time, what you chose. We have an S&L on order at the moment due in a couple of months. (And while it will have some options, nothing like Rick & Heather's!)
Thanks for the comment, excellent - bet you are looking forward to it, exciting! - we were keen to have a look at a current production model to see what that’s like so hopefully will have a look soon. All the best, David & Rachel 👍
Another excellent video. I was very surprised to see the fresh and waste water dumps being so close together and whether there is a risk of cross-contamination.
Thank you - appreciated. Really interesting question on cross contamination - I’m not sure, I notice on ours you get a lot of muck on the waste and fresh dumps, I always run a little water out with the drain open when filling it to flush anything out of the pipe just in case. Thanks again, All the best, David & Rachel 👍
@davidlindley485 the outlets are a standard design used on quite a few vans such as Vantage, I must admit I’m a stickler for keeping the van clean and they’re never dirty, I run out a fair bit of fresh when filling and we don’t drink the tank water anyway (regardless of the van that’s any van we’ve had)
Oooh, I’ll look forward to your visit to S&L. If you get the opportunity will you please have a look at the Atlas and the Orion.😁
Yes of course, no problem - will do - we were keen to have a look also 👍 Thanks for watching - all the best, David & Rachel 👍
