Much better than the Transit camper van that I had in the 80’s but I don’t like the toilet.

I've just got "home" from work - night shift - where there's an MB Sprinter chassis Airstream van in for solar and lithiums that is much fancier, but sadly has less space and fewer amenities. But no worries, it's twice the price. Thanks for the tour, Nick and thanks to Auto-Sleeper for keeping it real.

Great little camper - and even has a toilet (sort of). The flexible design is fantastic and if you don't need tons of space would cope with places the big beasts couldn't get to.

Glad to see it built on a Ford chassis & not the usual underpowered Fiat. Driving a 2023 Lincoln Nautilus with even more driver assists I appreciate all the additional sensors & co-pilot amenities Ford offers. Thanks Nick for even the colour is eye catching. The chemical toilet is a bit put offing though I have to admit. I can think of all the ill appropriate times that it’s usage would not be appreciated.🤨😤😝

Certainly a better bet than the similar priced VW. And the transit does drive like a car. But for that money I think, the space of your old school motor home with a fixed bed and bathroom wins hands down. A very good second hand one right up the years as seen in your reviews Nick. I wouldn't find standing in my "Jeyes Fluid" at the back of the van for a shower in the cold of early summer enticing. A chemical toilet under the oven is hardly the most hygienic.

Unbelievable. About £30k for the privilege of having some Ikea kitchen units and a seat installed in the back of a van. Mind bogglingly expensive for how little you get, compared with all the custom mouldings required to build a similarly priced - and far more practical - motorhome, complete with a useable bog+shower cublcle, fixed table, and garage to store all the junk.
@cwg73160 Жыл бұрын
Are you just now realizing that things cost more when someone else makes them for you? In the world of retail, you’re usually paying more for quality, experience, time, and peace of mind with a warranty. But yeah mind-boggling sure ok cool why not.

@origin178 Жыл бұрын
@@Ahoey717 Perhaps you're missing the point. A motorhome also has all of those things installed so they are actually usuable! In this Transit van, are you supposed to stand outside every morning to have a shower? Do you sit in front of the family on the bog to take a dump? Where do you store all the junk for a typical family trip? Where do you put the bikes? This Transit is madly impractical, except of a couple who don't wash much and don't mind sharing their toilet experiences at close quarters.

All the "USB ports everywhere" are 1 Amp maximum (1:35), which has been obsolete for almost 10 years and won't charge a single operating smart phone on the market today as it would drain faster than the charge rate. Allowing such obsolete technology to still be sold in a new vehicle is an absolute show stopper and warning not to go anywhere near this company.

Not bad, but very underpowered. The equipment solutions are pretty average, definitely not luxury by any standard. At £67,grand, I can't see these selling well. In a market where such vehicles as the Toyota Alphard/Vellfire and Nissan Elgrand rule for less money and far superior equipment and comfort, the Ford is going to struggle.

£67,000 for a transit with a toilet in your kitchen this is stupidly over priced, that = 67 - £1000 holidays in a hotel without the need of using the toilet in your kitchen/bedroom/living room.
