So many RVs are designed by zero sum divisions. For space "here" we must lose space "there". This coach is different. They've gone for compromise and to accomplish this they employed cleverness. As a person who works all week long on RV repairs, I thought I'd seen all the variations - I hadn't. Way to go Dethleffs team - good work. And thanks, Nick for finding this beauty.

I know the fit out on these is nice but at 250k, there's some huge margin within these things when you think about what materials actually make these things. And that's the smallest oven I've seen in a European rv. Normally that's the space for the microwave.
@dougle03 Жыл бұрын
Especially when you consider that all the parts are from the standard catalogues and they go into vans a fraction of the price. The only really bespoke element in these vans is the woodwork. Really can't see how this is worth 250k, I'd have priced nearer to 125k which is a similar price to the 5Ton tag axle Autotrail comanche units...

@Peter Kay exactly. Don't get me wrong, I'm no anti-capitalist by any means but I've watched loads of videos on motorhomes the last ten years and have hired quite a few and done my research on them, and whilst they have always been expensive, it feels like some of them are taking the mickey now. And I get it, things are worth what people are willing to pay, but I think that at 250k, it really opens up the playing field to much better choices.

I was so hoping that this would be a perfect motorhome, but felt let down badly with the cooking facilities. There is no microwave and only one wee small oven that is perched way high above the fridge. If you are spending this amount of money then you would expect better kitchen facilities. Also, the main bed must surely have an infill area when you first approach it - or is it really like twin beds there and no double sleeping arrangements other than up the front? So because of these issues it's a disappointment for me.
@SJet2003 Жыл бұрын
Agreed, although the kitchen is designed for them mainland European domestic market who tend to use microwaves and ovens less than the UK market (as this is a German manufacturer). There is an infill to convert it from a twin to a double. There is/was a model which has an island double bed called the 9050-2 DBM.

Hi Nick! We enjoy both your channels and it is interesting seeing the products and brands marketed in the UK compared to what we see in the US. We have a 37’ Class A, but see a lot of Class C’s here, which fit more available spaces, are somewhat easier to drive, and typically more economical to run. Are your RVs generally built in the UK, or are they imported? We have Class C’s north of 200K, but most buyers at least consider a Class A in that price range which will get you more living space and full-size features. You commented that people would not buy a house instead of an RV, but it’s pretty common for retirees to sell their home and go full time here in the US. Don’t know if that happens in the UK, and it’s not unusual here to spend 500K on a luxury diesel bus to make it more like home. In the end, people get to make their own choices regardless of what others think😂. Thanks for the mix in content and your enthusiasm for all motorized products.
