I think with the drop down bed i would have liked to have seen this with a lounge space at the back and extended kitchen work space instead of rhe fixed beds. Still a very nice van as is
As someone's already said, I don't get why there's a drop down bed on a 2 people's van. Those beds rattle and take away payload and storage. Why not have the dining area convert to an occasional double bed instead? There's not a lot of kitchen cupboard space for a 7.5 meter vehicle. All the outside doors and lockers have single seals instead of the double seals seen on some competitors. That nearside front outside locker looks like an afterthought: why isn't it painted like the other lockers? No lights in the wardrobes. No window in the bathroom. And you can't sit up in the rear beds because of the storage above your head... But a very nice design throughout. Thanks Nick.
I think it has potential but why 2beds on a vehicle that can only travel with 2 people. I know you said it could sleep 4 but I think it might have been better to have incorporated extra storage in lieu of the drop down bed. The fit and finish by the bathroom area was not exactly best standard. It’s not a “star buy” as it were but certainly one to consider. I would be curious to see how this and the variant that travels with 4 compare.
Hi Nick, You never mention the water tank capacity and toilet/waste capacity on these vans. I’m curious as a boater where these things matter quite a bit and are always listed. It gives an indication of off grid touring capacity. Thanks.
I been watching some vids like this on luxury motorcoaches and I've really come to appreciate your vids even more than I already did cause most people are not really good at this lol.
it makes my 2019 knaus sun ti platinum seem like a bargain at 60k with only 14k miles ..at that price i will get some travel done with 30k saving ..90k seems an awful lot of money for that model
@MOTAHOLIC I totally get your point ..I just cannot get around the fact that someone just says right here we go let's spend my pension pot ..and 5 years later it's lost a third of its initial value ...it will always be that way I guess ..that said a good review and thank you
Seems pointless having the drop down bed as it will decrease payload on a 3500kg van. The split sits in the front looked like the possibility of fold up front facing seats. Not sure the van shown isn’t the 4500kg model
Well, the fact it has P86/2 written in big characters on both front doors is a little bit of a clue, as is the lack of seatbelts anywhere but the front seats... 🙂
Hi Nick. That`s a really nice vehicle apart from one thing, that nasty piece of wood block they used to close off the bedroom area from the living area. It would have looked much better to use a full-length piece of wood with the same grain as the door to blend in, after all, you do pay a large price. Anyway, enough ranting, take care and stay safe.
We're living in a world where you can pay £100K for a family Volvo and £50K for a Honda Civic. Everyone seems to think that there should be no consequences for closing down the economy for a year and creating billions of pounds and spraying it into the air but there's no such thing as a free lunch I'm afraid. Now it's payback time. 🙂
You have to go back and do it again because..the bed on the back fold up in order to have access to more storage...and transport 4 or five people with seatbelts I think 🤔
Nope. As I explained in the video, this one is configured to travel with two people and remain below the 3,500kg cut off for a C1 license. That is what the /2 refers to. There is a P86 that isn't a /2 and that will carry more people but it's 4,400kg - needs a C1 license.
This one is good, spacious, and very likeable. I always like the split toilet/shower area. You could fit an after-market tanning bed in the garage area. Keep the misses happy on a rainy day 🤣
I look at the drop down bed like a crew cabin on an owner operated boat. Better for storage but there if you need. Especially if you removed the mattress, you'd have an ideal storage locker for household items, leaving big back locker for outdoor items.
Very nice for a couple to travel around… caught a glimpse of the shower floor, was it a single level or two levels? From my sight it looked like it was two levels or slightly sloped. Other than that very nice in deed.
Are you sure that those seats underneath the drop bed in the front don't convert to forward facing seats for travel? They look like the fold-out type you see in many motorhomes, hence the split cushions and the footwells at the front.

@@tteric67 I can only refer you to what I've already written I'm afraid. It is designed to travel with just two, it only has seatbelts for two, it only has the payload for two. If you want four, you need the P86, not the P86/2, which is what this is.
I would assume it uses a lot of shared parts from the larger plated van, so those "clues" that usually signify 4 travel seats are just there to tease. Is it only the UK that has the licence restriction of 3500kg GVM?
That is very nice perfect for a couple but would of thought it would of had a Ireland bed for couple but like you said have the drop down beds that would be perfect for me and the wife
1 Sterlin ... 45,64 TL 💸😩🇹🇷 All calculations are wrong due to the high price of the Turkish Lira and inflation. This vehicle is 3 times more expensive for us due to taxes.🇹🇷💰💸😩
