The flexibility of the rear section, and the overhead area make this unit stand out. Very interesting

One of the best small campers you’ve ever featured Nick. Love this one.

The rear bed area would have been nice if it had converted into a larger seating / dining area. As I've always found the dining table at the front way too small even with the front seats turned around.

I agree with you, I would take that bed out & convert it to a nice seating area/dining.

I give that pop up phone holder thing in the cab about 3 hours before it breaks.

That may be the most fabulous of the motor homes that you've toured. The thrift of space in that motorhome is just amazing. That is absolutely the ultimate motorhome that I've seen at this price point. Thanks. Great video!

Hi Nick. Having an upper berth is awesome. The only thing to remember is the height for drive-ins and car parks. It has everything needed for 4 people to weekend away. Great walkthrough tour. Thanks 😊

Love the upstairs sleeping. Not for me because I'd break my old fragile neck when I have to use the bathroom in the middle of the night, but it's a wonderful use of space!

wow, these keep getting better, so much utility packed in to essentially a van. an RV for the masses. thanks for showing us this, have a great weekend, cheers nick!

Why not put a drop bed in the rear also? And a sitting area below..also the shower could be a two compartment and rearrange the sink and you have a 3 burner..it would be perfect !

Compact and cool.

And thank you Nick for this very impresive Knaus Boxstar 600 Street XL. That is a nice one Nick with a very nice solution the bed in the roof system I believe even bigger then the aft bed we are lucky people with you 3 days in row Nick on show Thank you a great show

Well impressed with the roof bed. If only they did a rear lounge version this would tick many boxes for us. May even have considered trading in our Aztec.

Hi Nick stick another 100 grand on the price and you can get one that’s bigger and floats , sorry couldn’t resist the comparison . 🤣👍👍👍

after watching so many of your videos, 7 Meters seems to be the sweet spot for a motor home I feel. Spacious enough to have space for all the essentials and sit 4 pax.

Thank you very nice,

Very nice looking RV. 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽

That's indeed such a wonderful piece of design and engineering

Unlike Nick, I don't have to be objective in my appraisal and this would suit me perfectly in my situation of being a single parent of a teenager. Automatic (I only have an auto licence) with drivability on a standard car licence, what's not to like? 10/10

Greetings from New Zealand. Great vid.

One of my favorites. It can do it all with such limited space.

“Clobber” what a great word 👌🏻

I would put the kitchen in the back and then a pop up t where they kitchen its. Then put a seperate shower there they fridge is. That's would be a great home away from home. But a it its its great for a long weekend. Thank you Nick.

but doing as you say you don't carry a motorbike. This does, and that makes the vehicle. You can use the full lenght cargo space here. You don't if you put the kitchen, or the washroom, in the tail. You occupy the tail and it looks like you have a lot of space, but then you don't: no space for your things unless you fill the space with a dozen cupboards. Much better enjoy a large cargo space: problem solved with simplicity.

I’m looking at getting a Burstner Time 585 which is also about 6 metres in length. Perfect for a roaming the UK!

Great video Nick.

Hi, love this model's layout, but besides the right hand drive conversion, the whole layout should be mirrored, for example, the sliding door should be convert to the left side (in my humble opinion) to become a fully right hand drive campervan. Thanks for introducing the rhd version.

Another good camper nick 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

i'm still amazed at the ridiculous cost of these tiny little things and marvel at the mugs who buy them !! in two years time it will only be worth 40k ! I'd rather buy a vintage hymer 700 for 15K ( which will only go up in value ) and use the rest of the money to buy a house with land Portugal ( which will only go up in value !! )

@@MOTAHOLIC I bought my 1982 Mercedes Hymer 900 in 2015 for 11K . its the rarest production motorhome in the world ( only 28 made) and is certainly a rare and beautiful gem. Far more interesting than this pokey little thing . Also its now worth about 50K as interest in vintage vans( and something this rare) has exploded . So not only is buying a classic more interesting , its also far more lucrative !! but you do have to be a certain type of person to appreciate this . Think Riva 60 Bahamas vs a new 19ft ft day boat and you will know where i'm coming from Nick !!😉

Ho visto su you tube il van camper van tour: knaus Boxstar 600 streat xl troppo bello ma desidero sapere se questo van furgone camperizzato se si può avere con 5 posti omologati, per famiglia da 5 persone, perfavore grazie. Oppure avete altri van con altre ditte con 5 posti omologati. Grazie

Nice vehicle and layout, not my cup of tea, I'm more utilitarian. My friend and myself drove a badly converted VW T3, that smelt of damp (and at the end of the journey coming back, diesel) that my friends dad got it in payment for fixing another car. We drove from London to the Czech Republic to go to a festival in 2005, stopping multiple times in Europe. It took us a week in all, stopping at camping areas and the such. Good times. The T3, sadly, failed its MOT and was sold for parts.

No oven or microwave for 74 grand?

The ladder . Why ladder is not mounted in to the bed like a bathing platform on boats. Or its just me who seeing the problem.

Do you like paddleboarding Nick? You always mention paddleboards!

Nice. Now i know my ignorance of camper vans is setting me up for this , but why dont they come with small generators like boats to keep 230v power when away from a mains feed ? Dont shoot me lol , its a genuine question :D

@ilmaio

Жыл бұрын

Some people do, for off grid operations, why not? Noise is the only drawback. Generators are quite conspicuous.

These small motor homes seem so expensive for what they are. I believe the standard van costs around 25,000? So you are paying a further £50,000 for the motor home conversion. Seems extortionate.

Finally someone has copied the upper beds of the older Westfalias (James Cook & California Exclusive)..now just to copy the rear kitchen/shower layout of the old James Cook

Why are these type of RVs so much more affordable in Europe than in the US?

@ilmaio

Жыл бұрын

Basically much smaller engines, front wheel drive platforms. Most euro vans have Fiat in line four turbo diesel engines 2.3 good for 140Hp (or 177 HP with an overprice). A standard RAM platform would have twice that power, or +100 Hp, and that comes with a price. European taxation on fuel basically forces the makers to downsize performance. That's the first reason, then, there is the transportation cost and the margin of the american dealer.

The only negative is for £74000 the interior looks cheap.

£75k - only in the UK. lol

The only thing I didn’t like about this camper is having the sliding door on the drivers side, it makes it dangerous when exiting the van if parked on the road.

In fact, this happens because the british version has the driving seat on the right... It's a Fiat Ducato...

If you can find a way of manufacturing and selling these for £26,000 you should definitely go into business, you'll be a multi millionaire within 3 years. Good luck! 🙂

It's a nice car with a lot of great features,but the thing on top of the dash is ridiculous. Look at the size of it. Just to hold your phone? That is typically something people invent because they want to have something nobody else has, but since all the "normal" things exist already, they come up with something like this.
