The little two birth was my favourite. I loved the 8ft wide with the separate bedroom but I could never tow that so I’ll stick with something smaller! Thanks as always for sharing.
I cant get over all the wide open spaces. I really liked the open floor plan concept. And you are right the last one that you mentioned would be good for two or a small family did look like a small house. Thanks for sharing...Vic
That was priceless. Thanks so much for posting. We are really interested in a new coachman for 2020 and youve shown us the models that we prefer. the 575. Thanks again
I notice on the VIP 575 that the tap layout on the new VIP 575 has changed from the boutique style tap that came out the wall, I can only think that there was a big design fault and possible leaks. Be interesting to know if you could ask Coachman Karen as to why they have reverted back to the tap being mounted on the worktop as it was a huge selling point for potential buyers. Keep up the good work
FYI, Karen, I have no idea how YT advertising works, but when I watch your videos there are no adverts which seem strange considering the amount of views the videos receive. Like many recently I came here from Cruising the Cut, loving your content 👍
I'm greatly enjoying your channel and think it is really cool that you are doing this extended trip to the UK. I'm still catching up on the bulk of your NZ videos. I am a part timer (vacations and weekends) RV traveler in the USA with our class A coach. Have you considered replicating your UK trip, but in the United States. I know I would really enjoy your thoughts on the differences in rigs, facilities, campgrounds, rigs, etc... Maybe you could partner with someone here to get you setup with a rig you would like to test out and review for them.
Nice, just bring me one an drop it on your way home please not fussy they all look inviting. Amazing share think I would take 2 days to wonder thru and then go and look again really nice
Ahh, Coachman! I’m biased having just (last July) taken delivery of our VIP 565 (twin singles for us). It looks like the changes are subtle and mostly cosmetic rather than any real ‘upgrades’. This is good, as we really shouldn’t be considering changing ours, just yet! Thanks for the overview though K, very interesting. Cheers, Rog... 👍🏻 😉 🐍
Doesn't it make sense to have a heavier chassis in the Australian model? By that I guessing the terrain is rougher in Australia. Anyway, nice video thanks for making it and inviting us along. Oops, I forget you don't boondock or freedom park as much as we do. 😩
@@TravellingK Off the beaten track is the only reason I would have a caravan. But our caravans are built to boondock. They have the holding tanks for black, grey and fresh water. The only real problem you might have is electrical and that is why you have solar panels. You do learn what you can run and how long it can be ran each night.👍
@@TravellingK Clearly not from watching the rest of the video ! Next guess is van length in cm - is isn't really all that informative is it ? Noting Bailey do motorhomes too - I wonder what they suggest for a family of 10 ? Motorhome & caravan ? It'd be nice if so, the two would dock side-by-side instead of having an awning. Could be reconfigured - so caravan is the bed space and the motorhome with all the facilities. I've other new concepts for Bailey too if they're interested !
The 850 looks nice. I do not like the other layout where the bed pulls out it mean a person would have to climb over their partner to get to the toilet in the middle of the night
@@TravellingK Push-button catches are too noisy, Overhead storage doors are curved and open upwards - when open, they're perfect for banging your head on. If they were flat and opened to the ceiling it'd be much better. Beds waste a lot of space - I think it best if they either folded up or lifted out of the way (as they do in some motorhomes) to make living space. OK, go talk to Bailey - tell them WE want to design their 2021 models - see what they say :)
This is great seeing you demonstrating caravans far more elegant than fixing your old classic caravan back in nz well done
There were some seriously lovely ones!
I hope you still enjoying yourself where ever you are now. Thanks.
Busy day today! Just dropped of the car and caravan 😩
The little two birth was my favourite. I loved the 8ft wide with the separate bedroom but I could never tow that so I’ll stick with something smaller! Thanks as always for sharing.
Yes, the 2-berth was a lovely space 😀
I cant get over all the wide open spaces. I really liked the open floor plan concept. And you are right the last one that you mentioned would be good for two or a small family did look like a small house. Thanks for sharing...Vic
The wider caravan does make a huge difference to the space!
@@TravellingK it sure does
Coachman really impress me with the attention to detail. My favourite caravan maker.
Yes, they have a great look
That was priceless. Thanks so much for posting. We are really interested in a new coachman for 2020 and youve shown us the models that we prefer. the 575. Thanks again
Oh good! Glad it was helpful 😀
Great video like how you moved from one van to another quickly just giving us a quick look the vans looked really nice
Thank you Andrew! I try to edit it down to just the important parts 😀
I liked all of them and the house.
They looked better than my apartment.
🤣🤣 They really do feel like flash apartments too
Thanks for the nice and smooth camera work, and the caravans where lovely too, very informative, thanks
Edit
It was so good,
I watched it twice.
Haha I like that!
Thanks for another great vidéo Karen. you are going to find your caravan so small when you get back to New zealand 😉
I think I will!!
Caravans get better every year leveling systems wonder what's next I like them all nice video too 👍
Simple levelling is a great idea!
Thank you for another good and informative video, the vans are all very well furnished, love the island beds and large bathrooms x
And I do like how the curtains and sofa covers are now done 😀
Thats flash Karen, thanks for the look through. Wow, that van is like a house on wheels.
Aren’t some so large! Crazy
8ft wide, rear and separate bedroom is a winner for me... Assume it will be in the mid £30k price range?
They were flash, weren’t they 😀 I’m not sure of the price... maybe check their website?
Some lovely new vans K looks like you’re enjoying the uk caravanning 👍🏼
They were flash, weren’t they!
Always good to have a nose around! 😀
Definitely 😜
Wow!!! I want to get that large 8ft caravan!!!! But i cant!!!!😂 its phenomena!!!! Looks cozy!!!
I was impressed 🤣
The Acadia 580 looks really nice for a family van, I'm guessing it wont be cheap though!
Some of them are so big!

Oh that’s interesting to hear! I’m not sure they’ll want me to ask 🤣
Is that filmed at RiseHall near Hull?
Yes, that’s right!
What stands out for me is that i can see an up grade when you come home.and a puppy.just thought i would add that in .
🤣 I’ve got some ideas but wouldn’t call it an upgrade!
FYI, Karen, I have no idea how YT advertising works, but when I watch your videos there are no adverts which seem strange considering the amount of views the videos receive.

Really great to hear you’d be ok with adverts! I’m thinking of adding them soon, but want to tell people first 😀 Glad you’re enjoying the videos.

Really great to hear Brian. I’d love to do something similar in the US one day. Do you know of any companies that might be open to the idea?
Love the 8ft wide ones :D
It does seem to make a huge difference to the space 😀
Nice, just bring me one an drop it on your way home please not fussy they all look inviting. Amazing share think I would take 2 days to wonder thru and then go and look again really nice
🤣🤣 Sure thing! They are inviting

Ah nice Rog! And sounds like you’re still enjoying your current caravan 😀

It does make sense to have the heavier chassis for the Australian caravans if you like going off the beaten track 😀

Maybe Bailey will give that caravan out of the goodness of their heart sure they could afford that 🙀 (wishful thinking 🤔) enjoyable video 😂
Haha very wishful thinking! Anyway, my caravans feelings would get hurt 😜
Nice lookaround thanks
Glad you enjoyed 😀
Acadia '580' - It'd be really useful for those of us not familiar with Coachman to explain what 580 signifies. 8 foot wide 5 berth perhaps ?
I’m honestly not sure about the numbers system 🤷♀️ I wonder if that’s it?

Lovely little vid 😊😊
Excellent!

Hmmm that’s true... you’d probably get around, but stepping sideways 🤣
Do u ever do live feeds or q&a
I’ve done live videos on Patreon but strangely not a huge fan of them! Could do a Q&A? Shall I start collecting questions?
Yes you are so Knowledgeable I’m coming back to nz. And I’m thinking of camping around South Island
Karen would make a great salesperson for caravans.
🤣🤣 Hopefully that’s a compliment!
Oh no, found your channel too late to attend a meet. You were gone when I found it in the UK.
Ah that’s a shame!!
Please tell me how to get the music you used. Thanks
It’s copyright free through UA-cam Audio 😀
Very nice!
You need to do the Dutton thing in mirrors !! Hheeeelllloooo 😂😂😂😂
I was so tempted 🤣
I'd love Bailey to pay me to have a holiday with them for a week or so and design my own van for their 2021 range ;)
Ohhh that would be the dream!
