Great van (for a FWD) but I wish he would keep his hands still, instead of waving them about all the time...
How crirical of me is that?

Answer: no.
Because it costs the wrong side of eighty thousand pounds just to buy, before any extras etc.
Buy a good used MH for 25,000 and used the 55,000 saved to fund all your travels over the next 10 years.
I like that, alot especially the end bathroom. No silly tec tower but you do have a decent size fridge freezer. Using the beds with the extensions would be annoying as you'd have to make them up every night.
Interesting that my 8 yr old Adria vision a class which is also 6.5m shares some of the same features. I do have a garage though.
Nice van though

I hear what your saying but how far you going to get on 2.500 a year ?
That goes along with my recent adventure. I know there was a discussion on here on how much it would cost and figures flying around between £100/150 a day!!!!The costs of that entire 6 months motorhome touring (apart from food, which we'd be buying anyway) is generally about €6,000, so about €1,000 a month. That includes diesel for the MH and petrol for the 125cc scooter we use a lot whilst away.

Unfortunately not Paul, what layout/size are you looking for?Have you got the extremly rare large lounge Debs ?
... for us 45 days away usually costs us about £1,200 all in (including dogs) with about half of it being fuel, the only extra cost is for any stuff we want to bring home such as wine, pressies etc ... we don't use campsites, mainly aires and wild-camp and don't usually eat out as we like to be in out of the way places where there's often nothing around.That goes along with my recent adventure.

We've just done 6 weeks in France, Switzerland and Italy and costs around £2300 including train, diesel, Aires, campsites (a few ACSI) and tourist trains (one steam train and one panoramic (Puy de Dome) and all food, beer, wine whilst away and around 15 gallons of wine back and meals out. The overall cost was for me, Janet and Pepper.

I was at CamperUK last Thurs...
They have a lot stock and some very similar that Frankia but can't remember the make.... but pricey ... starting at 88k!..
Tbf, we did spend a bit on campsites and did around 4000 miles.... for us 45 days away usually costs us about £1,200 all in (including dogs) with about half of it being fuel, the only extra cost is for any stuff we want to bring home such as wine, pressies etc ... we don't use campsites, mainly aires and wild-camp and don't usually eat out as we like to be in out of the way places where there's often nothing around.
Looks like Carthargo from the logo on one of the MHs

Who said anything about £2,500 a year?
£55,000 spent over ten years is £5,500 per year.
(In fact a little more in reality given that the remaining capital will appreciate annually somewhat if invested).
That'll get you a LONG LONG way.
One example.
We are based in Spain but tour all over mainland Europe extensively every year, in 3 or 4 big chunks of time, lasting perhaps 6 to 8 weeks each tour.
Mostly Aires and wild camping, but with a very occasional ACSI campsite night thrown in.
The costs of that entire 6 months motorhome touring (apart from food, which we'd be buying anyway) is generally about €6,000, so about €1,000 a month. That includes diesel for the MH and petrol for the 125cc scooter we use a lot whilst away.
But that gross spend is before we deduct the costs of electricity, gas and water that we are saving by not being in the villa for those approx 6 months. Thus net additional cost is perhaps €700 euros per month away in the MH.
Unfortunately not Paul, what layout/size are you looking for?
Off the top of my head there's the hymer that Carol/ cliffandger /neilfg with large lounges.
Or if you can go to about 7m I know there's a frankia with a rear bathroom which ine of the traders on here had at Malvern at the last western show. He Gave us a tour round. Or theres a new burstner at 7m with rear washroom/garage/wardrobe.
