The next van is finally revealed and in this video we show you the final 3 and why we picked the one we did and what happens from now on.
Hi! We're Rick, Heather & our dog Poppy and we travel in Pearl our Elddis CV20 campervan.
We film the places we visit as our own diary, these videos are meant as a little memento for us but we're happy to share them with you if you want to watch.
We're just an ordinary couple in our 50's filming our adventures with basic equipment so don't expect loads of flash camera action and super editing with great music.
We also film videos of work we have done on our van as well as van reviews for our reference of the next van we might buy. Occasionally there are hints & tips videos too. We do basic site and area reviews including if they’re dog friendly but they’re a guide only based on our opinions which may or may not help you make an informed decision on if you’d like the place.
We do a mix of off grid camping, pub stopovers plus real campsites too, hopefully something for everyone to enjoy!
Please leave us a comment on the videos, we love reading them and reply to each one.
We try to upload once a week so please consider subscribing to see our travels, it’s free and will really help us.
Thanks for watching!

Good choice guys, I bought a new Boxer for work in 2015 and one of the best options I added was electric folding mirrors, it was only £100 back then, probably £1000s now but it saved getting mirrors smashed many times in the narrow lanes where we live. We have an motorhome with an auto box it’s brilliant

Good choice with the Apollo, I recently took delivery of the Oslo S2 and also couldn't justify the auto with 180 bhp cost (would have liked it) I ordered the expedition grey which I called shiny grey primer but Fiat cancelled the colour on the last S8's so I went with the Amazon as you call it (just need some prime stickers now and I can park it anywhere 😁) Look forward to you getting it

So tea is on Rachel tonight! Great you could choose your options for the van and motorhome part too. Sounds like it’s not too far off too.

We definitely did research and yes you can fit a table but it’s just the angle of the driver seat and the feet dangling that’s an issue.

Just brilliant Rick and Heather. Can really see why you chose it. Such a great idea to be able to choose your options and watch it develop. Seems a really good company. We're so interested to see the timescales on this as we ordered from an Autosleepers dealer in February, and they are talking September. BUT - Fiat \ Peugeot lead times appear to be seven to eight months so we don't honestly expect ours til the new year. But you're ordering \ sourcing in a completely different way so it will be so interesting to see if Anthony at S&L can supply earlier. Just a great watch as always 👍👍👍👍👍👍

Thanks, I’m not sure if it’s easier to buy single vans or the fiat dealership Anthony is using are able to pull strings or even if the timescale is achievable… but we’re happy to wait, we’ll keep Pearl until it’s nearly finished and if it’s later than September it will be a 73 plate anyway 👍

Great choice of van. You did the right thing and drilled down to detail and as you know, the devil is in the detail. With regards to the tracker alarm system, we found it difficult to insure our van (Smirf) and equipment at £100K without a tracker. The annual premium was stupid and some wouldn’t even quote. We are picky with our insurance purely because we have history of a major claim in a car. The leather steering wheel and gear knob can be retro fitted and other accessories are fun to purchase after delivery. We had extra courtesy lighting and cab blinds fitted. It’s exciting to do the little seasonal add-ons. Looking forward to later in the year when you take delivery 👍🏻😃🚐 Trev n Sue

On a previous video I commented that the 12v condenser fridge is the only thing I miss from my CV, you replied that you getting a bit sick of changing bottles (my word). I almost said that given the choice I'd probably go gas free - diesel heating+hot water and electric cooking, induction hob and air fryer. Not sure if you're going that far, tbh.

That sounds great. I’ve just come across a channel and looked at their van review, it’s an East Neuk Campervan which I’d never heard of. Initially like some others I wasn’t sure about the raised floor in the S&L but their van was great and it had a raised floor. At the back they had access to the underfloor for storage and had their hose and EHU and lots of other stuff stored there. Also on hindsight you only really sit or sleep in that area and if you’re shorter you have better access into your lockers. So I think I’m warming to the idea! 🤣🤣 My Peugeot Devon Colorado, named Rocky because of the rockies link with Colorado and obviously it was a boxer, had colour coded bumpers but my new Aztec, Monty or Montezuma named after the Aztec emperor or was it the Tequila? 😂 is expedition grey but has the black bumpers. To be honest, I took the display model and didn’t realise until it had been on the drive a couple of days. I’m now thinking I’d quite like those BF Goodrich trail or all terrain tyres and I think it will look good with the black bumpers and a set of those. I won’t waffle any longer but congratulations on your new van and thanks for sharing your experience. I’m going to think about a name now. I can’t rush that!

At first I found Hermes, wrong because he’s male and also because you already mentioned you went of Lanzarote Grey due to the Amazon link 🤣. However, I did find Avandra when I Googled and I like what she represents. Perfect name in my opinion so Avandra is my suggestion. I also think she’s in Dungeons and Dragons or maybe some sci-fi stuff but not certain. Just thinking there may be another theme tune in this. Mind CamerVanya may not be happy with a Campavandra 😳.

Fiat is treating the UK market shoddily. They said they could no longer supply the Maxi-Chassis option to my van and now it appears you can no longer have the automatic with the 140HP engine.

You can’t have a 140 auto on the 6.36m van no…. Hence us not going automatic with the new van

Not sure, the S9 Ducato is a 2.2 engine so slightly different than ours but anything around 30 is ok with me
