    Hi Nick!
    I've no budget, but making use of what I have... a foam mattress fitted into the back of a Skoda Octavia. Solar shower bag to keep clean, gas burner to keep nourished, ice box to keep things cool, new lady with a zest for life to enjoy it all.
    You're not sleeping, if you're not sleeping out :-)
    Thanks for the videos. All the best and stay safe out there.

    Hey Nick that's a really nice camper and I was not expecting the second bed over the cab but I do really like the way both beds lift up out of the way allowing for use all year round and a very tempting price, Have a great weekend bud

    This is cool, so very usable, sensible floor plan results in multi purpose, spacious and functional areas.
    Also no stuffing around putting bedding away every morning and taking it out every night, practical solution to a repetitive pointless task... making the bed.
    Excellent tour as per usual. Thank you, take care. 👍👍👍🛻🚕🚗🚙🏎🏍☠🏴‍☠️⚓😎

    Thank you for all the videos. Very useful. No fluf, so they're easy to digest.
    Hope you'll be able to help. You had a review of a van that had 2 lounges, one at the front, one at the back. Both converted to sleepers AND there were 2 pull down beds. So practically the van could sleep 8 people. It was under the 100k sticker price, and it was with a regular van cabin.
    I was looking over videos and can't find the one I'm looking for. Hope you can help. Thanks!

  • @temper44

    I really liked how they made it seem like there were no compromises. Good size beds, the seats weren't cramped, tall fridge and everything was logical. Makes you wonder what Knaus could do with a bigger frame, they could probably fit a whole football team in there.

    Very clever use of limited space. Does not appear cramped. Very practical, and the size would allow it access to many more roads than some of the bigger ones. Love the hidden beds that open up the space. Very nice Nick. Does it have Volvo Penta engines and a range of 250 miles? Oh wait, that is a different type of transport 😉😂 Your knowledge is amazing Nick. Thanks for this 😊

      @@sherlockgnomes8971 Forget the Lake District.. small roads have no passing places in my experience so unless you are a master at reversing then it's hard work. The NC500 in Scotland is the complete opposite LOADS of passing places so even if you take the 'proper' route (that they guide caravans away from) it's still very easy going. Did it in May in our Dreamer D60 Fun and it was fantastic.

    Nice piece of kit but why is the access door on the wrong side for British roads??? If you park up in a layby for a break the door would open straight out into traffic. Obviously you can just move through the interior of the vehicle. If you have kids you'd have to be very careful about exiting the vehicle through that door or pass through the gap between the driver and front passenger seats.

    I'm not keen on the drop down bed at the back, In the 'up' position you can't access the cupboards above and in the 'down' position you can't access the ones below. The van life campers have all made that area work so much better with outward-facing storage under the bed. I appreciate the shower room is in the way but there would still be room to have a door in the centre under the bed with one of those half moon-shaped drawer units that swivel round (like the ones used in the corner cabinets of kitchens) and then the same on the other side with the door/opening under the fridge. That would then leave half the width of the bed as the 'garage'. Their current set up takes up a huge amount of space and is quite ugly, you wouldn't want to use it as living space.
