neil malcolmson Posted August 6, 2010 Share Posted August 6, 2010 Forget layout, and whether it suits your needs,or if you don't like Fiat's Ford's or Mercedes. A class C class P.V.C. What do you think is the best looking van on the market ? For me I think it has to be the Burstner aero,but it does not suit me sir! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lennyhb Posted August 6, 2010 Share Posted August 6, 2010 Must agree, not sure I could stand the attention you would get with one. Our Hymer Gold is bad enough I've had lads shouting from the other side of the road "nice van mate" still if they attract that much attention might keep the tea leafs away.

Rayjsj Posted August 6, 2010 Share Posted August 6, 2010 I think the Dethleffs Globebus 'A' class look the 'Business' but I couldn't live with any of their layouts. Ray Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flicka Posted August 6, 2010 Share Posted August 6, 2010 The Karmann Colarado 625 TI / RS, looks the business to me. But I would want a different colour. http://www.karmannmobil.com/images/Colorado%20website%20details.pdf Still think the American RV motorhomes used by John Player motorcycle racing team, in the early 70's were way before their time. Anyone remember the name or got a photo? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve928 Posted August 6, 2010 Share Posted August 6, 2010 I don't think any of them look good: they're vans with a caravan bolted on the back after all. Don't get me wrong, I have one myself. But to start deluding yourself that a motorhome looks good/nice, well forget it.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
malc d Posted August 6, 2010 Share Posted August 6, 2010 I think a lot of them look good but are spoilt by a very long overhang at the back. To me they look like a truck on a pram chassis. ( If everyone stands in the rear end, does the front leave the ground ?). ;-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
catinou Posted August 6, 2010 Share Posted August 6, 2010 Our Burstner Aviano of course. :-D and yes the layout suits us nicely thanks .... ;-) We were concerned so few lockers compared to the Dakota but what storage there is , is so much more useable - it is a pleasure to use all the drawers and you can actually get to everything easily.....

le canichot depang Posted August 6, 2010 Share Posted August 6, 2010 Surely it's a question of "it's your baby" and you love it no matter what it looks like - that's what drew you towards it in the first place! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rapidoman Posted August 7, 2010 Share Posted August 7, 2010 i agree beauty is in the eye of the beholder, i think we all see vans we like or cant afford,personaly i have always liked the look of rapido 'a' class vans and am now a proud owner of one, but layout always ruled the head over the heart. that and the wifes approval :$ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rayjsj Posted August 7, 2010 Share Posted August 7, 2010 malc d - 2010-08-06 8:44 PM I think a lot of them look good but are spoilt by a very long overhang at the back. To me they look like a truck on a pram chassis. ( If everyone stands in the rear end, does the front leave the ground ?). ;-) On that point I agree, I think that Autocruise (CH) on the low slung Alko Chassis looked really good. And the handling was evidently very good too. The Starburst of 2006 won CC best Motorhome overall.And in silver looked very good. Only problem some ground clearance when going over rough Sites.
