This 2021 model, seven metre van costs from EUR64,130 and comes with a double floor, a very large lounge and rear washroom. This is the first time I have seen this layout in the Hymer Group although a number of Trigano vehicles have it. As for me, I prefer it to the Trigano models but I am a bit old fashioned so that might be why. As a rule, a rear washroom means less space in the garage - what do you think of this solution?
I filmed this motorhome at the Palmowski showroom in Bielefeld, Germany, which is one of the largest distributors of RVs in Europe.

Dies ist das erste Mal, dass ich dieses Layout in der Hymer Group sehe, obwohl einige Trigano-Fahrzeuge es haben. Ich bevorzuge es den Trigano-Modellen, aber ich bin ein bisschen altmodisch, deshalb könnte es der Grund sein. Ein hinterer Waschraum bedeutet in der Regel weniger Platz in der Garage - was halten Sie von dieser Lösung?

I have this. The UK version has a lovely cooker with the bed lowering buttons behind a normal cupboard so a bit easier to get to than the euro spec shown. I like the fact it is not easy to find for the uninitiated because you can leave laptop, tablets etc in middle of bed in raised position and would be extremely difficult to get at if van broken into. The table drops down so becomes like a coffee table and if you put the loose cushions in the middle the beds drops a further 6 inches than Alan achieved. Having had other vans with drop down beds I can say this is the best by quite a way because of the low height achieved and also the width of access to the bathroom side. Vans with the half dinette lounge tend to encroach into the gangway and create a narrow opening to get in and out of bed but not so with the way the kitchen is laid out in this. It is a large bed at 140cm wide and there is sufficient room to leave the duvet on bed when in raised position so all in all a very elegant solution for a sub 7m motorhome. It is a 4berth so the lounge and coffee table converts to a double bed also but obviously you then have to position the drop down bed at mid height and use the provided ladder. I also looked at the chausson rear bathroom models when buying and as Alan says this is a far nicer van at not much more money. I believe this only comes on the 4250kg maxi chassis so payload is about 1000kg. I am 6'2" and find the head height under the raised bed and in the shower fine.

Great comment thank you! Indeed I thought you were female until I got to the point where you said your height. That is meant as a compliment because in my experience the best and most detailled comments come from the ladies!

‘P’.........I agree, your thoughts on the bed raising/lowering mechanism being hidden in the cupboard is a great idea, and as you say laptops being hidden in the bed adds to the security aspect. I really like this model, the previous incarnation had an L shaped dinette and a bed with the head adjacent to the driver/passenger seats. I can now see as you say that this is easier to manoeuvre in and out of the bed and to the bathroom.

Great comments, appreciated thanks, missed out from original Euro review. This is our favourite Burstner layout by far due to all that lovely space in lounge. Wonder why Burstner don’t offer a rear kitchen which would be a great alternative with a side bathroom. Maybe for another year! 😄

@mikedevere 3 жыл бұрын

That's our favourite layout, although I agree with you Alan- that bed key location is unnecessarily inconvenient, esp if one considers that the van is designed for two adults, and no children! Finally, it would be great to see this on a sprinter with rear wheel drive or even better 4x4. Otherwise, extremely attractive.

For someone that doesn't need a really large garage I think that is a very good layout. I do like the bed over the lounge because you don't use the lounge and sleep in the bed at the same time. It wouldn't suit me probably because I think the garage is a bit small, but it would suit many very well I suspect.

Harmony Burstner,, reminds me of the UK,, AS (Auto sleepers ) line and this particular ( Harmony) line has a wonderful habit on delivering style, simplicity & creativeness. There coaches are roomy,, & always tastefully appointed with very nicely displayed interior lighting. This has a nice sized Bath with double drain. Sink/counter cover is prim-o. Storage is fantastic,, great interior usage of space & design. The tail lights would even challenge "Knaus" superior rear lighting and they have the best in the the RV Industry,, as of yesterday. hahahaha A Quality Coach without a huge price tag.!! Thanks for showing this one Alan.:)

Here in my Dutch house we are not allowed to have the toiletdoor next to the kitchen for hygienic reasons.There has to be a hall with doors between kitchen and toilet. So why can we buy campervans with the kitchencounter INSIDE the toilet? This camper should be illegal in the Netherlands i assume?

@VanlifewithAlan 3 жыл бұрын

Keep quiet on that one Truus otherwise all motorhomes will be banned! To be specific having worked in real estate, exceptions can be made through the planning process although not in newly built residences. If one were to convert a sixteenth century dwelling and had no choice then I think the two door rule could be broken. I saw an example in the centre of London. I think, logically, that RVs would come into the same category.

I did thanks. To be clear, we are huge fans of the Burstner produce and hire one version or the other regularly. I was meaning the price has gone up so much since then, less than four year! I find it hard to believe that this doesn’t mean they are making huge profits (10’s of thousands per product!😳) off of the back of their customers! Still at least their owners/shareholders will be able to eat more money, won’t they?🤗 Have a nice day.🙏🏻@@VanlifewithAlan

@@gerriewretham-roos The prices certainly have gone up a lot but if one were to ask my opinion based on my own business experience, I don't think the margins have gone up for the producers and they certainly have not for the dealers. I think this is due to the loss of efficiency with manufacturing which has put the costs up and this is due to supply difficulties. I might be wrong of course but that is my analysis!
