    The steps/ladder is such a brilliant idea and a lot kinder to your feet than metal rungs. A truly well engineered/designed mobile.

    Very exciting loft bed design with pass through and stairs/door! Innovative as most German designs are. I really love this. It makes a separate cabin in cab section too for a teenager or dog or such.
    Central locking for kitchen cabinets is... GENIUS!!!
    Fridge is a good size and love the reflective glass and separate freezer.
    The bathroom enclosed area is splendid.
    The garage is spacious and wonderful.
    The only thing I would do differently is to shrink the excessively large lounge area and expand the kitchen countertop all the way down to end. Now you can have bar seating and a view, work spaces, offices, dining, kitchen prep, etc. Kitchens are too small in all vans. Lounges are too big. But of course if you have kids, a big lounge is good. I think though that for couples or singles or smaller families, the long countertop would be much more useful as an office space, with an L-shaped lounge, not U-shaped.
    I would also taper off the cab head space to be more aerodynamic. Everything else is brilliant.

    Hey Nick I am very impressed with the clever design in this motorhome those pull out stairs are genius and the double use bathroom door makes this motorhome compete with the bigger ones, I hope we will see more of this design in the future have a great weekend bud

      I agree. Have never seen a reverse layou. I like that when your stopped and dinning or just re!axing at the table there is a view outside. In the States the view is the driving area or a privacy curtain behind the driving compartment.

  • @r.a.monigold9789
    @r.a.monigold9789 2 роки тому +2

    Using "clever" to describe this rig is like saying the Titanic was a fair sized boat. Both of those statements totally underplay the uniqueness of this rig and the opulence that was Titanic. Ingenious layout and one of a kind design are two ways of putting it. Trend setting would also apply. It is so obvious this is THE optimum layout for all these Class B, or Super B or Mini C motorhomes. Absolutely nothing like it. Superb design with quality implementation. Thank you Dethleffs for building this and Nick, as always, thanks for finding the truly unique rigs.

  • @bobblyth6905
    @bobblyth6905 2 роки тому +5

    I think that these days manufacturers are looking to “reinvent the wheel” to try and keep ahead of the game, and offer something different. An example is where, instead of going outside and turning a tap to drain the grey waste tank, you simply stay inside and press a button !! However, that said, I have to say that the slide out ladder is absolutely brilliant and I can see the idea being taken up by other designers !!!

    Oven's awfully high up (mum would always need somebody putting food into and taking food out of it); but if you're just using the van in summer, you're probably not having much hot food. Also, this is a design that looks quite similar to what I'd probably design in a motorhome of this type - clever bedroom/bathroom arrangement and the back end as a big-enough U-shaped sofa. Very good.

    Nice review Nick as always. Other than my total dislike of Fiat chassis this would be a wonderful unit on a Mercedes Benz frame or Ford/GM. Fiats arrived in N/A a few years ago when they bought Chrysler but have lost their appeal due to poor quality & being unable to meet our climate conditions. They just don’t last with the riggers of North American driving unfortunately. Keep up the great job Nick.👍🇨🇦

  • @iancharlton678
    @iancharlton678 2 роки тому +1

    Awesome van….. and as ever, Germanic superiority 🙂
    I think I saw an additional pocket door to divide the front from the main cabin, leaving the toilet door closed 🤔
    I suppose my only criticism would be it can comfortably sleep 4 adults in luxurious style, but only two can travel belted, not that I would mark it down for that…… a lot of camper belted seating leaves a lot to be desired anyway.
    I’m not sure if you can still sit unbelted sideways in a moving vehicle as used to be the case ? Dim memories of benches in Landrovers of old…..

    I'd love a motorhome but what puts me off is that given that you've paid out on the motorhome in the first place I don't like that you have to pay sometimes substantial fees just to park it wherever you're going. You may as well just drive your car and go in a hotel.
