Caravan Salon Düsseldorf | The Worlds Largest RV, Motorhome & Caravan Show

Caravan Salon is the largest Motorhome and Caravan trade show in the world, each year the World’s largest recreational vehicle manufacturers preview and launch their latest models.
We set ourselves the task of finding the best family motorhome available at the show, with many manufacturers failing to cater for 5 berths with 5 travelling seats, we found some interesting models for sale, but are any of them better than our current motorhome, our Swift Kon-tiki 874?

    We went a few years ago in our KonTiki and spent three fabulous days there. We didn;t mean to do it but while we were there we bought a Frankia tag axle and had it imported into the UK. Great van. thanks for the usual superb content and greetings from our home here in Southern France.

    We all spend a fortune on our m/homes which as a chassis are designed to gross occasionally at 3.5 tonnes. I was fed up of the suspension banging on every pot hole, the terrible ride, crap road holding. So after some months of convincing myself to spend £8k on full air I took the plunge. What a game changer. Brilliant ride, self level on park up (as much as the air bags allow), raise front or rear, lower the rear and tilt for emptying tanks. Now when boarding a ferry in our Adria sonic I just push a button and don’t worry about grounding. My advice would be to go for the full air suspension, front and rear, not just the rear air on its own. It costs a lot of money but a complete game changer.

    Air bags are excellent at raising the rear and stop the grounding of my towbar and add very little extra weight . With 8 inch lift they are the best and controlled by compressor under driver's seat and controlled from cab they have made a huge difference and more stable cornering .

    What I'm surprised about. I hear the EU are very particular on safety aspects and paperwork. But I see at the motorhome pop up sites the vans are very close together. In the UK there has to be a certain amount of space between vans.

    You guys should Import a Schoolie and have it built to your exact Spec. You could have your own bedroom at the back and the boys could have big bunk pods at the front. Then a huge living area in the middle. I know you love your motor homes, the space for the boys as they get older though would be immense 😊

    Good vlog. Dusseldorf is good if you are interested in seeing motorhomes or caravans but for accessories and bits and pieces (eg. silver screens, reversing cameras, wing mirror protectors etc) the NEC far outstrips Dusseldorf. Secondly, please remember that European spec vans are different to those of the UK.

    ❤ your comment about the Dutch. But finding a motorhome where my tall hubby has space to stand up and sleep is not easy. And I want a face 2 face seating area, decent kitchen and separate toilet / shower. So far only Laika and Dethleffs can deliver within a price range we like (Dutch hey). So just like your specific needs, it is not always easy to find your favourite 🚐.

    They seems to be restrictions for large motorhomes on sites. How do you get round this, I mean you have a large motorhome. Do you come across this much?

We have a touring caravan and to save using an expensive car( which weve now sold) we decided to put it on a seasonal pitch for a year at a time , and if we want to move it we can hire something that will tow it, rather than having to tax and insure and putting fuel in every 5 minutes Nice vlog but completely out of our league
