Hi we have a Possl/Globecar certainly no issues with them as they are very well built vans.

Before buying this one I had an Adria coach built and thought it was a good quality van, I did look at the Adria PVC and just didn't think it was as good as the globecar just my opinion though.

We've got the Globecar Campscout and we're very pleased with it, as lorger says very well built vans.

John.

We have a Globecar FamilyScout L and it's great, the build quality is extremely good - having done over 20,000 miles in it since we got it 2 years ago the only issues we've had is with standard items such as a hinge needing replacing (the adjuster screw was faulty) etc, the actual cupboards, seating etc are all 'performing' as they should.

Its down to personal preference really but do check the payload etc as the Adria offers a 'no cost' upgrade to 3650kg ... my question would be why! Also, The Globecar has a window in the bedroom area (the Adria hasn't) which is nice to look out of with your morning cuppa or just let some fresh air in as its not really possible to open the rear door windows if you have a bike rack on.

Very pleased with our Globecar Campscout. It is rising four years old now & nothing has dropped off. :)

Cant get involved in this one. It would sound like favouritism because we have an Adria twin 640 and love it. Build quality is excellent.
I would go for the layout that suits your needs best. Both vans are excellent.

Hi its Phil. Our Adria has 2 windows in the bedroom side area and two in the back doors, all darkened. So its great to lay in bed and people watch.
It is the latest model so the one you saw must have been a different model.

Don't think there is much to separate the two brands quality wise both good
Go with the layout you like best
For what it's worth we have the Globecar Campscout Revolution
We went for that model because of the extra headroom and the lifting bed
