  • The Westfalia Kepler One is tiny camper with kitchen, toilet and shower. The Westfalia Kepler One is only 536cm but claims to be able to sit and sleep four people. Its lounge is quite big (considering the height). It also has a kitchen, toilet and shower!
    I live in a motorhome full time and travel around Europe in it. I spend most of my time in Poland, Germany and Italy. Vanlife is my life.
    In my UA-cam channel, I present reviews of recreational vehicles. Here you will find campervans and motorhomes from the cheapest camper vans to the most expensive luxury liners, from various companies including Hobby, Hymer, Carthago, Westfalia, Wingamm, La Strada, Frankia, Clever Vans, Pössl, Bürstner, Niesmann Bischoff, Action Mobil, Reisemobil Manufaktur, Robeta, Trigano, Challenger, EuraMobil, Laika, Forster, Mobilvetta Design, Affinity, Globe Traveller, Benimar, Roller Team, Adria, Tourne, Megamobil, VW, Mercedes, CS, Renault, Ford, Fiat, Carado, Sunlight, Baileys, Chausson, Balcamp, Knaus, Weinsberg, Mitsubishi, Woelcke, Reisemobile Bürow and others.
    I do this by regularly attending trade events such as CMT Stuttgart, Abenteuer und Allrad, Caravan Salon Dusseldorf, Warsaw Caravan and Camping Show and sometimes others.
    I cover equipment, including 12v electrical equipment and talk a lot about lithium batteries.
    I also show some of the places I have visited in Europe in my own motorhome, as well as the places you can stay at! I try to give as much coverage as I can to official campsites and free places which I use for overnighting. Therefore you can find here the aire or stellplatz that you are possibly looking for.

      Are they not sold in the USA? Can they be imported? It looks like the base vehicle is the Fiat Ducata of which there are some in the US.

    That first one is a great wagon, like the layout and I like the fact that you can put a tent/curtain around the flip top back door. The other were not good. However I do agree if the set out in the Mercedes was the same as the first wagon then I'd get that one.

    I really love the kepler one/jules verne concept. Bit longer than California, but still a small and compact vehicle to drive around 👌 I just wish they make a pop top roof from a different material with better insulation. I have a Club Joker high roof. Westfalia build quality and VW ride is just excelent.

    Thanks Alan, Kepler One or Jules Verne for us & time perhaps to start the hunt. Now for steak, wedges, salade & Merlot since it is a little cooler inside. 33 C outside which is why we are YouTubing! These videos are very useful thanks. Remember the Webasto diesel heaters from our VW Trooper & like them a lot.

    Hi Alan,, I think the first camper van by Westfalia was the best. The interior had clean lines,,yet was stylish & appeared very comfortable. The prices were fabulous also. Here in the states,, add another 40,000 Euro.and that's where the basic starting price would be. Add options, additional 60,000 Euro. $150-160K value.

      @@MG-dj7jv I agree, it is pretty crappy layout. Much prefer the Clever Van's Celebration model. I mean with this one, never mind being a naturist, you'd have to be pretty laid back about people seeing you take a cr@p too, at least in the Clever Van Celebration, you actually get a bathroom and the vans electric controls are not in it like this one.

      For me the biggest problem would be not being able to stand up. If it is a bit cold, one is not going to want the tent up - or if one is off site. It is raining outside right now but I can sit here and write to you. That is the advantage of a motorhome!
