Thanks for detailed review. We've had a GC 600 for 2 years, 20k plus miles of touring and generally love it. By the way you don't have to open cab door to swivel captain chairs; just raise seat and spin round, sometimes needs adjusted fore or aft according to start position. The rear bed solutions have been suggested already and work fine for us. Driving is a dream. The only problems we have had are with auto step, replaced under warranty now working and the fridge door also replaced. Off grid the leisure battery lasts less than 24 hours unless in direct sun and you have solar. We use an Ecoflow cell as back up and have extra solar panels to charge the Ecoflow. This month we have arranged to trade up to a 680 just for extra space and a larger bed that runs length ways in van. Will have diesel heater option to allow longer off grid.

Excellent review guys, we’ve just bought one and awaiting delivery, your review has really helped.

Thanks for the great review ❤

Thanks!

This is the best review explanation of a caravan I have ever come across!!! well done!!

Try to swivel the chair with the handbrake in an upper position.....that's the main reason why the handbrake in all motorhomes is like this ;)

Makes perfect sense! Thanks!

Thanks for the review. I may of missed it but how much space is there for the main bed, is it a double or larger? No oven I guess?

Apart from the toilet I’m not sure what it gives you over the California Ocean. The space up front is a little cramped and definitely doesn’t have the flexibility of a smaller van. Great review guys.

I think if you can afford it, you only use it as a camping vehicle and you need the space, then why not. If it's an every day round around and you're doing more than just camping than the California is perfect for that, asI agree it does give you more flexibility. Thanks a lot for watching

On the verge of pushing the button to buy , you tipped the balance 👍great review

Get a custom one, so much better

Good review guys - we're so on the fence with this one. We love the Grand in size, layout etc (alternatives out there, but it's a solid choice). But the height is a real worry for us in terms of use. We use our California Ocean as a daily, but we really get frustrated with having to disassemble the entire bench seat (ie taking out the kids chairs, etc) just to be able to setup the bed. Looks like a far easier setup for camping; but more restrictive for daily use.

Appreciate it guys ✌🏽I mean for an every day vehicle, personally It would be a struggle for us due to the nature of it's size. We had a couple of times we had to find alternative parking due to it's height and even the length it'll hang out of most car parking spaces. In terms of camping it's a dream, the space is great, it's everything you want. I'm not sure how practical it would be as a every day vehicle but I'm sure there are ways around it. ps. We love the California Ocean too!

Put the lower mattress upright, then the larger mattress will stand a little lower

good job ! guys

Yes great easy listening review....👍

how does it sound? when it go through pot hole?

I think if you watch this video back the answer to the mattress problem is there for you to see rather than fold it over put it diagonally it should solve the problem

Thanks for your very useful observation. Unfortunately that didn’t work. Does it work for you?

Fab review, lovely van …. But lots of money..😢

What's the ceiling height in these things?

Is it a four-wheel drive? Please release it in South Korea as well.

Nice Review thank you. I think the facilites are good. But I have to say that the internal design and colours are quite sterile and boring. It looks like more an ambulance than a family Campervan. Def not my cup of tea.

German design at its finest. And a bathroom that is 10 years behind the other makers (no separation glass or curtain or floor slats). Such a shame.

German campervans are know to be the best in the world ie Westfalia, Hymer etc But VW have a way to go in terms of practically, and functionality, sadly , but engine wise they are spot on

There are special wallpapers available, even with your own motives, you can put on the sterile walls.

I struggled to watch this with the upspeak

Can't trust this review to be honest and unbiased if the VW UK company "loaned" the vehicle.
