Understand about the space issues, but then its a suck it and see kinda journey.
blow up awning to throw all the gear in for a week away.
or towbar and tug a caravan. then use the cali mv (What do we call the new one?)
Albert the designer refers to the new California as the T7, so ?
as a day van.
where a single burner will do for a brew.
fridge will suit my day van needs, sitting outside and can reach in and grab a cold can, without having to climb inside, sit down, open the lid.
There will be a large storage blind on the window opposite the wardrobe. has compartments, and can be removed to take in the house and filled with ya knickers n socks, t's, shorts, clever idea.
I saw the concept kitchen, but then saw the simple hob and sink, much the same as the 6.1
my insurer NFU, gives you a brand new vehicle for the first two years, and 635GBP for a year on a new defender xs edition with air suspension, sliding pan roof, fridge, 7 seats, air ionization and purification, electric towbar, i think is a bargain.
Comfort was 484GBP, business use, a year for a 87K list price, Cali 6.1 4motion.
I am lucky with insurance.
TBH I could get a multivan L2 Style for around 66K, but then I'd have to buy a dometic fridge and secure it in somewhere. Use a ridge monkey 10l container to store water. vango roar, and the foldaway aluminum table in the boot. But then its a lot of faff, again.
Grandkids, when they grow up could sleep in an awning next to caravan when we went away. but what about using it as a day van when we retire?
for an extra 15K could have the manual poptop in an ocean mv. fridge I don't need to secure, and an awning when its hot. and 2 chairs in the boot. water on tap for a brew. table stored away in boot.
I think its going to suit my needs.
The Sven was a nice idea, but too big to park on customer sites for the next 4 / 10 years..
I'm really looking forward to the awesome seating position, and car like drive, which will accommodate my (not bad, but back muscles that need to be kept in a certain position) and 99% of my needs.
