Is this the family campervan to answer our needs? Is it a suitable replacement for our wonderful Ford Nugget? With the kids growing and us needing more space, plus a bathroom, have we found our new van? The Affinity FIVE appears to fit the brief, but does it win us over?

I do like this van especially the triple bunk beds and bathroom. It seems to have everything you like. Look forward to seeing what you went for. Take care Gill

Thanks Gill! We were impressed, but not impressed enough and there are several practical draw-backs with this van for us. Thanks for watching! Best wishes from us all 👍

Nice to see a different layout and catering for 5. I really struggled. Had to go bespoke and got 3 seats upfront and a rib in the back. Then a pop top on a MAN tGE. At a push all 5 could sleep inside van but much easier with the pop top for one or 2

I would see if you could put blackout curtains in the bunks for privacy and it should allow all your daughters to sleep when you put the lights on in the living area, or if the had reading lights they wouldn’t disturb anyone else.

Your nugget is an exceptional example, one of the best I’ve seen but with a growing family you definitely need a change. That looked really nice, tough choices to make but all good fun I’m sure!

Hello! Yes, it is fun and you’re right. The Nugget is fabulous but for all season use and 3 growing girls, we ideally needed a bathroom and a bit more flexibility. Thanks for watching and keep an eye out for our next van video to see what choice we actually made. 😃

The whole market is dominated by 3 companies with all the known brands under them who make no new developments. Affinity is of a new level and as a small company they go their own way. We love the brand.

With the girls getting bigger you definitely need a larger camper. I looked at the Affinity range at the NEC in February! One concern, no ladder for Izzy to climb up to the top bunk? Good luck and can't wait to see you bought?? 👍

Hope it is this one, absolutely beautiful and definitely more practical size wise. We are trading our Nugget Plus and have bought something we can stand up in and with a bathroom! Is only 5.53m long, but perfect for 2 of us! We cannot wait! Don’t keep us waiting too long confirmjng the big Van reveal! How exciting for you all! Massive Congratulations 🥳 🎉

Really nice van with a great layout! The only thing to me is that it looks more of a camper than van: elegant and classy but missing the van vibe a bit…The Nugget was a great compromise there! Curious to see what you went for at the end! Enjoy the summer with the new van!!😉 Regards from Canada!🇨🇦
@marcodallago3275
@marcodallago3275 3 дня назад
Another one thing…the affinity you showed has a low clearance and that can be limiting…a bit higher clearance will be better…and if you plan to use the van all year long I would add a 4x4 so you are ready for anything..!😎

I’ve been really looking forward to seeing this van. I’m not convinced and a little underwhelmed, sorry. I guess it’ll grow on me but for me I think my money would go on a motorhome. I think our boys are a little older than your girls and our Nugget Plus still works really well for us. I do look forward to seeing how you settle into this van.
@CaliCamperFamily
@CaliCamperFamily 13 дней назад
Don’t worry….this isn’t the one! And, I appreciate your honesty. The Nugget is a tough act to follow and there are compromises….but I think we’ve managed to get a nice one and maybe you’ll like it more than the Affinity 👍🏻

@CaliCamperFamily well I bought the Nugget without seeing one other than your video from the Dusseldorf show (& Silvernuggetadventure)! So really it's all your fault 🤣. I'm sure your new one will grow on me, time will tell?

It looks very similar to the Nugget. My only observation is the sockets nd control panel is above the cooker so I’d be worried about water/steam ingress over time. Excited to see what you get. We have the Plus pop top and love it for a family of 4 plus Labrahooligan. It can sometimes be a little cosy but the flexibility it gives us is amazing.

How nice to take Izzy and jump on a plane to another country to evaluate a new campervan. It looks very nice but I can’t help thinking it’s about €10k too much. Can’t wait for your next video to find out.

Nice one, 3 bunk beds nice for the kids, not sure if the more regular double bed of that type of interior would be ok too. Since the kids seemed to ok sharing big bed. Mostly for the maybe bigger storage under the big bed. Im planning a similar for solo use with 1 german Shepard. Office in front. 2 can work, 4 meeting. And fixed double bed, always available. And huge storage under the bed. Under 6 m length is my goal, so 5.40m is on my wish list. Have been fun following your familys adventures. Keep on rolling :)

What a brilliant design - hope Affinity bring it to the NEC in October - would love a closer look. Is it 6.36cm? Can’t believe they have managed to get 5 berths in all of which look comfortable. Happy travels and good luck with your decision making - Sharon x

That is excellent and totally suits your family. I do wonder where the seat for this and the nugget comes from as it doesn't seem you can get hold of them privately only the not-so-nice rock and roll beds. The Rib bed is ok I suppose but not as good as seat in there or nugget.

I would really enjoy you telling us how you got to live in Italy living a glimse of italian life through a Englishman eyes. ImEnglish living abroad since i was 25 35 years ago. We want to come to italy one day.

We looked at these kinds of panel van conversions but the issue is payload. Miro 3090 and gvw 3500. Payload of 400kg to include 4 passengers (assuming driver and tank of fuel included in miro). Weight of 4 passengers. Water on board. Clothes and pots and pans if you're lucky. The only way they work is if up plated. Im old enough to have taken my test in 1992 but i was post 1997 thus no automatic c1. To pass c1 you need a medical every 5 years and the medical requirements are higher than for a car B. I cannot pass the medical due to a condition and so it's a no go for me. But we have 2 boys and can fit in the nugget plus pop top. Wish theyd release the hardtop in the uk. I found a cool tailgate tent that goes up in 30 seconds for showers though! Pack a shack based near Edinburgh. Not an awning youd keep up but designed to offer temporary shelter when needed. All things being equal the right panel van conversion vans are amazing. This does have nugget vibes but there is something that made me think this isn’t the one.

That’s amazing! I was just thinking this afternoon, it’s a while since I’ve seen one of your videos and I was wondering how your house rebuild is going and if your van had arrived in time for the school holidays 🤣🤣. I think the van looks perfect for you and it’s similar in shape to the Nugget, it’s a bit like a Nugget on steroids. The internal design and finish looks fantastic, so modern and spacious, and excellent quality. The vans are becoming so expensive but I think you’re getting a lot for your money and you’ll make the most of it. We have a 6.36 Fiat Ducato and we love it. I can’t wait to see your next video 😊. Thanks for the update.

Hi Sylvia! You had sixth sense there! I like the Nugget on Steroids comment! Glad you like your Ducato 6.36. We have just taken delivery of our new one…but it’s not the one in the video! 😅…stay tuned! Villa coming on well, and an update is next on the editing table 😃

Just a heads up.. you tube, dropped you videos to me. I fixed it. Here's, my thoughts on the, NEW NUGGETS 2.0.. THIS WHAT I THINK IT MIGHT BE MISSING.. THREE KIDS, DIFFERENT AGES. BUNKS, ARE GREAT. BUT,. I WOULD ASK, ABOUT, CURTAINS, PULL AROUND FOR EACH KIDS BUNK. ALSO, ( DONT KNOW HOW. ), CHARGING PORTS AND A LED READING LIGHT IN EACH GIRLS, BUNK. ALSO,. SURE IT WOULD NOT COST MUCH... A SMALL, FLIP OPEN MIRROR ON THE WALL FOR EACH GIRLS BUNK..( LIKE A SUN VISOR IN A CAR, NOTHING TO FANCY. ALSO, I WOULD WAS... FOR, ON THE GIRLS BUNK WALLS, FACE OUTSIDE.... CHEAP, MESH, NETS,.. HANGER, SO THE GIRLS, CAN,PUT STUFFED, ANIMALS, .. BOOKS, THERE READING, TABLETS, IN THE NICE, WALL, MESH, YOU KNOW, THE, MESH, IS SCREWED TO THE WALL, ALL AROUND, TOP IS OPEN, AND STRIGHTCH OUT, TO MAKE. Basket... The same, for the wet bathroom.. you need, a way, for soap, hand sanitizer, girl,( stuff ), to have a up high.place...yes I saw the medicine cabinet... I'm talking about, your taken turns, for a quick, shower.. where, do u hang the towel,. I would ask, can, a curten track be added, outside the bath, room,. So mom can help the girls, wash, and still have, privacy. Also, in this day and age... Solar is kind of a must... Line, the roof, with new modern... Flex, glue down solar...and, hide a couple of, leathem batteries in back.( Yes it will cost a few thousand more.), but in the low run, lights, AC, cold drinks...and u can bundock...cheap, for free, as you show off, Europe... Also, SECURTY.., night, vision camera, motion camera, and, outside, alert, flood, lights, if someone, TRYS to break in and the family asleep. . I would ask, for a 2 to 4 inch, lift kit....I have watched, where you drive... That RV rides low, and would bottom out.. ask, if they can add those wheels in back, that lift, the RV, up, before, it, drags bottom... ... Good, luck...., how's the house... You bring us along, then stop..... Love to see, how the new add on looks.. as I ramble...a small, tailor,. I closed, to hold, the e bikes. Girls getting bigger, your going to need, 3, or 4., or a hitcher hicker, bike, extension, like two bikes in one. ...
