Hi David,
You be very welcome to have a look on the get together in March.
Without it actually being on my drive yet i'm not sure but there are good and bad things about the latest model I do know of,
A) latest engine and in my case an automatic
B)sliding doors to the cupboards and the wardrobe etc at the side rear seem bigger.
C) there is a clever sliding worktop in the kitchen area
D) the table and chairs are stored in the van doors (clever.... What?)
On the downside we had taken out our upper bed in our current one which gave us a storage shelf when travelling. That
Is no longer possible as the bed seems to be fixed in place and is necessary to hold the 'tent' when it folds down, so, much to my wife's unhappiness, no storage shelf.
Also, the Germans like a long bed now, so the gap between the end of the lower bed and the front seats at night is smaller
Still room for a porta pottie but not quite so good.
However, we have looked at various other vans before chopping in our Cali and still felt that this gave us the best value overall.
And, if the residuals are as good on this one as the last one, then when I change again I should be able to buy a small car for no cost (perhaps!).
