I hope that when my photographer son graduates, he'll want to live in a van, because I can't wait to build one of these with him. Vans make so much sense. Thanks for the tour!
I wouldn't want to use a van of this small size for 4 people at a time. However used as a 2-berth, the layout does offer a fixed bed option. Without taking up huge amounts of valuable space, it saves having to remake the beds every night. Provided that the two of you are happy to sleep in single bunk beds.
Not convinced with the external vinyl graphics! 🤣 I'd remove them for weight reduction reasons...😉 (any excuse!). I must say, I love the layout and creative sleep/bed solutions, though. Great prez, as ever, Nick. Thanks for sharing. ✌️😎👌
I totally agree about the 'graphics' - such a shame so many well designed motorhomes are ruined by meaningless swoops of vinyl - and the idea that it's somehow modern. As a graphic designer of many years I'd be embarrassed by them!
i always liked seeing these types of motorhomes/camper vans as we call them. i think its neat to see what all they cram into these things. forces the makers to think "outside" the box. good vid
Nailed it Nick. I have been following Wildax with interest for when the time comes. Standout features for me, all underslung tanks, gas water and waste water. Proper shower wet room no clingy curtain! fully Winterised and 3 way fridge for longer off grid wildcamping
Not a fan of this one I'm afraid, but I do like the way they have stored all the accessories for the tables and such like. Another great review though Nick, thank you. 👍
I love Wildax Solaris XL! The forward sleeping area although a little narrow, does allow both people to get out of bed without having to crawl over the other, if going to the loo at night. The shower ain't exactly luxurious but it's functional, as is the galley, seating and storage. Great for a van!
Like this van alot. Want to build out my own and thinking of a long wheel base high top extended, but want it to be more stealthy than a big old campervan as want to live in it full time and travel U.K. Europe possibly South America, U.S Alaska and Canada if funds permit so I don't want it to stand out too much it's great you featured one that's a bit more van-like from the outside and this is the kind of look I'm going to go for perhaps outlets etc more hidden they look like they'll break off as soon as you had a tight squeeze of travelling more exotic places but all in all I liked the inside ALOT! GREAT STUFF!(Gleaned some more ideas for mine which is always good!) Lol
White - I remember a documentary on the making of the Ford Transit where the engineers discovered that white vans are up to 10 degrees cooler in Summer than any other colour. However, dark colours generally look better and that Grey looked nice.
With the Fiat auto gearbox this van is brilliant. I know they also can fit a TV DVD above the seat that you folded down by the side door and also can have solar panels making this possible to be genuinely free standing for a few days! All it needs is a 4x4 from Fiat & a mini dishwasher & washer/ dryer then that would completely give you everything for an independent living lifestyle! 🚗🚗🚗
I love dark colored vehicles... when they're clean. They get dirty pretty quickly. I had a black Camaro and dark maroon Corvette. But living in Tucson Arizona... white all the way baby! The sun is too relentless here. The difference when you open the door in the parking lot between white and dark colored is staggering! (But I feel you. Everything white is very boring.)
nick. I'll try to send you link. but look up the Canadian brand that customizes MERCEDES vans/sprinters. I really like that company. ps very nice video, I love that van as well
Now this is the van for me, business travel and accommodation sorted. No virus carriers allowed in the van... ever. I'm looking for something like this for safe UK travel. Excellent tour as per usual, thank you. Take care and stay safe. 👍👍👍🚘🚌🚐🚌🚐😎⚓☠🏴☠️
Love these class B's. Lots of really good solutions for use of space. I was just about to say this looks like a Fiat Ducato when you said it. We also have them as Peugeot Jumper in Brazil. Nifty little thing! Cheers!
always love your vids sometimes they actually inspire me to do my maths homework so that one day it will help me get rich enough to actually look at this stuff in a buying sense
Great to see a more “affordable” motor home, I would not want the drain valves a visible as that, people love to fiddle, also the roll back doors need room inside the storage compartment to work which I don’t like. Thank you for a great review, more of the same please.
When i was considering buying a motorhome, i decided against it due to the cost of them now days, having to stay in the UK mostly unless you want to spend part of your 2/3 weeks driving to Europe. Or i can have a 5 star all inclusive holiday for a family of 4 every year for 14 years in Asia somewhere.
Is this where we get to say British interiors look so dated? Seems to be the reverse trend. Anyway, she looks like a nice starter -boat- motorhome, but the water and waste faucets at 0:36 look really vulnerable, and the backside bathroom door doesn't look like it has a lock on it. I do like that she can sleep four, all four seats have belts and that the front two can swivel around. Doesn't look like enough storage space, but that might just be camera perspective vs real life perspective. Anyway, another nice video and great to see some variety.
@@trailerparksupervisor7046 If being challenged on your lack of intellect hurts your feelings, maybe the internet isn't for you. If you don't like it, don't respond.
Did I just spy an accordion device the heads that would allow the shower area to extend outwards (presumably with the rear doors open)? Also, I often wonder how are motorhome converters able to certify retrofitted seatbelts on vehicles like this. Hmm… 🤔 Nice styling and very practical spaces otherwise!
