    Very informative tour. It may just be me, but why do people want an auto-sleeper for £73K when you can have a McLouis 330 motorhome for about £60K with two drop down double beds, a proper social lounge and a shower, not a wetroom? That's the one I would buy.

      Agree. This one definitely seemed pricey

      Auto-Sleeper Symbol is better quality and much more car like to drive and park especially with the auto box. I have, on many occasions, used my Symbol as a second car - something that's not so easy with a larger van.

    It has excellent layouts at a reasonable price.
    That's exactly what I want.

    It’s nice they put a gas port for the bbq but where can you store the bbq ? Didn’t see any storage space for out side furniture to use under the awning.

    That’d be a great unit to get away for a weekend and watch the races. All self contained.

    It would be perfect for me as I’m going to tour on my own, the rear layout is very very good.

    The power step ought to pop out by itself when the door is open, the bathroom/toilet needs to be like the Auto-sleeper Nuevo.

    9 speed auto in the cockpit is a terrific feature.

    Hey Nick another great motorhome and I like that it's built for two people only so the kids can sleep in the awning lol have a great weekend bud

    Move the TOTAL contents of a Studio Flat and fit it into a Six Meter Van. You couldn't do that if the van were empty AND towed a trailer. Yet Auto-Sleeper has done it in a livable fashion with this Symbol Plus. Compromises? Did you not read the first sentence? YES. But the way Auto-Sleeper executed those compromises is what makes this more than simply livable - it's enjoyable. And that is a buyers first requirement. Thanks, Nick for a fun look around this Symbol of enjoyment - PLUS.

    Hi Nick. That's a huge sliding door, good connection with outdoors. The aircraft lockers, the interior colours work very well. A home from home. Great walkthrough video thanks 😊

  • @aidanmaccormac9125

    Sadly we motorhemers would call this camper a slap and bang van. As when you are parked beside it when they go to make the bed especially after drink has been consumed. They will wake up the campsite. 😉😂 Desinged by someone who never has gone out in a campervan.

    I suppose it depends on how view storage space vs functionality, but I would've put the cupboard that's above the fridge behind the seat/bed where there are those two small cupboards with wasted space around them, get rid of the those two small cupboards, and replace that small fridge with a taller fridge freezer, and maybe a storage cupboard above if space allowed.

  • @richardgreenwood3355
    @richardgreenwood3355 Před 2 lety +2

    I used to own a 1989 Autosleeper Rambler which I suppose was a spiritual forerunner of this van. I'm sure this has lots of additional safety - but I'm afraid I still find the 30 year old design cleverer, more versatile and more appealing. Four berth, four forward facing seats, separate oven and grill, access to the rear doors and on a shorter wheel base. I guess they feel there's just not a market for that layout any longer.

  • @danceworld8360

    Lovely van...it's a shame they're so expensive.....I do love the layout though and as always a great video by the master himself ( nick ) 😁👍

    LPG outlet for a gas bbq but without any boot or garage where do you put the bbq?

  • @Wee-Rex
    @Wee-Rex Před 2 lety +3

    £73K for TWO BERTHs and it’s not even a permanent bed system! Far too expensive for what it is.

  • @darrylscott4237
    @darrylscott4237 Před 2 lety +1

    This would have been super had they put a pull down bed over the front seats. Other than than it’s a nice setup.

  • @davidhayes4814
    @davidhayes4814 Před 2 lety

    The Symbol Plus is clearly much better inside than the Symbol but the USP of the Symbol is that it is a grown up Camper at 5.4 metres. 5.4 metre vans are great in town and therefore can be your only vehicle in a way that 6 metre vans rather struggle at.

    Nice van however, if you carry duvalays, where can you store those during the day ,bedding storage is always an issue and in that van, seems impossible and at £73000 I won't bother

    Imo not the best layout. With the Double bed out you can’t get out of the vehicle very easily .

  • @demus8757
    @demus8757 Před 2 lety +1

    The car looks nice with the colors and the materials but the beds are terrible. You would expect a permanent bed and something you have to build up every evening and stow away every morning. Sleeping on the chair is something for 1 night, but not for a longer period of time. No, this is not the one for me.

  • @janklaas7522
    @janklaas7522 Před 2 lety +1

    Seems . Disappointing. Poor storage capacity ( not even a place to put a BBQ or lawn chairs), impractical beds that also block the main exit to the vehicle, three burner hob when it has space for 4, no separate shower when it clearly has the space with some clever solutions, small fridge too. Even in this price range I've seen much more practical vehicles - it seems practicality was not a priority with this one.

  • @garethchild

  • @johndawson8806
    @johndawson8806 Před 2 lety +2

    i think autosleeper used to be top quality back in the 90s or thereabouts but nowadays it seems they have lost the stand out things that were so good i.e decals outside the style of cabinets and cushions etc. just look like any other brand now you wouldnt know if it was an autosleeper or not apart from the as on the seats! just my opinion anyway

    • @vanagon1966
      @vanagon1966 Před rokem

      you mean those cabinets that had fake oak wood effect that faded terribly in the sun and the cheap plastic brass catches that wore off back to the plastic
