What to look for?? (1 Viewer)

[Saxon66]

Hi

We're new here and whilst we briefly owned a Rimor 4 berth for a while a couple of years ago, we would class ourselves as new to the whole thing. I've been trawling the net looking at what is available in the £15K range and to be honest there is so much variety out there that some advice would help clear a confused mind! I think we have quite specific 'wants' from our MH and hoped that we could get some guidance. Our wishlist is mainly down to having 2 young kids and a desire not to be making beds up every night. So this is what we'd like if possible:

Fixed bunkbeds
Ideally an A class, this is not a deal breaker but must have some kind of 'fixed' overhead bed
Diesel
Separate shower and toilet (rather than shower over toilet)
2 full seat belts in the rear (a must)
Hob and oven would be good

I've been looking at Hymers but haven't come across one with bunks yet and they do tend towards the 3 seat layout which doesn't work for us. Anyone got any advice on other makes and models that fit the bill please?

Thanks folks

Mike

Try this page which has diagrammatic pictures of layouts and what is available from the various manufacturers. The actual reviews need reading with a pinch of salt as they tend on the favourable side but should enable you to shortlist the makes and models to look at.

Aw, why did you have to do that to me? It is exactly the layout I had in mind but it does mean I'm going to have to up my budget somewhat as they seem few and far between secondhand.

Thanks for the heads up on this make as I hadn't seen it before.

Cheers

I made a post a while back when I uploaded an excel spreadsheet
http://www.motorhomefun.co.uk/forum/threads/motorhomes-with-bunk-beds.126476/

my budget was 25k but I found lots at circ 15k.
A we have older kids who hopefully will not want to hold with us all time we've changed our mind and are now looking at a longer term mh. If u wand bunks with overhead plenty around.

Nice van when was on our original hit list until we changed our minds on layout and beds and settled on the Rapido we purchased.
