I’m drawing up short lists for our next van, We really like a U shaped lounge over a fixed rear bed, but we also really fancy a A class as opposed to our current C class.
At the moment we store our bedding (and other stuff) in the over cab bed, it amazing what you can stuff up there out of the way. However this morning when packing away the bedding, I twigged that with a dropdown bed in an A class there would not be this room, or is there room to store stuff on the drop down beds. We would not use this bed to sleep on ourselves as my wife could not climb onto it, this is also the reason most fixed reads bed are out of the question. We have got our eyes on an A class with a rear lounge but as it’s a long way away I thought I’d ask the question how much if any storage is there in most A class front beds?
We also need to have a proper cooker, we need at least 4 belted seats for when we take the grandkids.
Length wise were looking at least 7.5mts up to tags at 8.5mts so lots of options there.
Apart from the above we are flexible so any recommendations for van layouts are appreciated.
