Car wow T7 Ocean VS T6.1 Ocean

Just watched this on YouTube. Very interesting video.

I didn’t realise the inside table arrangement was so terrible. Forget finding space for a toilet, the lack of storage, narrow bed etc, the kitchen table is a stone cold deal breaker for me. (6:20 in the video if, like me, you can’t bear this fella).

Just watched it. Yep Mat is a bit of a div. Although he's spot on with the Comparverall a poorer experience, especially in camping mode.

Apart from the driving experience, front cab/tech and sliding window blinds I would choose the previous Cali setup in every way. The twin slider of the Multivan handicaps the kitchen and storage massively, no interior table and so little worktop space. Ok as a weekender but not a family on tour.

I don’t think I’ll be upgrading my T6 for a T7 any time soon.

I was open minded about the new Cali.

Having watched this, car vs van driving experience aside, I can’t see any compelling reason to change for any T6 owner.

That said, I do find using the T6.1 as a daily driver a bit cumbersome. So if I wasn’t a hardcore camper and just wanted a family van to dart to the beach or a weekend away, this could make more sense.

This video wasn't as annoying as I was expecting. The presenter clearly has experience with the 6.1.

Biggest reason for me to stay with my beloved 6.1 is i'm 6ft6in and a van that's any smaller is just not an option. T7 makes a lovely recommendation for others though! I'm still interested to see the hybrid version.
