You will also need to consider "seatbelts" if you are more than two. Whilst motorhomes may be 4 berth a number of them only have 2 seatbelted seats.Hi first time buyer of a motorhome and there are so many manufacturers out there. I know the layout I want 4 berth with drop down or over cab beds and single beds to the rear but what makes models should I look at and what should I take a wide berth of. Thanks in advance.

Where are you based
The ones you mention I would class as budget vans. German build quality is better than Brit or Italian, & French are pretty good.So in terms of the manufacturers who are the top brands and who are the bottom midrange makes? Like Rimour Eldis Bailey Roller team where do they all sit?

At the top end you have Phoenix, Morelo, Concorde, out of my price range well over 200k for the cheapest.
Then you have the likes of N&B, Carthago, etc.
Then Hymer, Burstner, Defflette, Rapido, Piolte etc.

That's a sweeping generalisation Lenny. I have an Italian built Laika, (Hymer Group). Not all Italian 'vans are entry level.The build quaity is comparable with any German 'van. Carado & Sunlight are good entry level 'vans but they still use structural wood as do many Burstners.The ones you mention I would class as budget vans.

Budget German vans Corado & Sunlight
Of the reasonably priced vans, N&B, Carthago and the latest Hymer models have a double aluminium sandwich (the inner wall is aluminium as well as the outer). Most of the others have a wood inner wall but no wood in the sandwich. Carado & Sunlight have a traditional build with timber battens in the walls.One more important aspect is construction method used: big differnce is between walls/roofs which are supported by timber and those constructed of bonded aluminium-on -foam sandwich - latter is tructuaral in itself and virtually eliminates damp problems(except maybe floors). I think all the 3 categories on the list use the sandwich, at least in recent models, but not personally sure about Corado and Sunlight, but might be wrong.
I was only quoting a few from memory too many makes to go through them all, I did think of Laika but didn't know how to spell it.That's a sweeping generalisation Lenny.
