Guest JudgeMental Posted January 31, 2012 Share Posted January 31, 2012 Yes thats right Pete! :-D They seem to offer different layouts. I saw one with rear lounge and this one on 636 chassis with twin single beds. A couple to look at on Mobile.de http://tinyurl.com/7ew9m2m Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pepe63xnotuse Posted January 31, 2012 Share Posted January 31, 2012 Ooh!..I like that door arrangement Pete!..a slider AND a small habitation door... 8-) (..now all they've got to do, is to put it on the "proper" side... (lol) ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest 1footinthegrave Posted January 31, 2012 Share Posted January 31, 2012 Would be interesting to know if they have retained the factory rear doors, but what a neat idea for those that dislike the large sliding door. I wonder if it could be retrofitted to an existing conversion,mmmmm Ah yes, wrong side for us ! ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
colin Posted January 31, 2012 Share Posted January 31, 2012 Interesting looking door, gives a bit more flexability of door opening like the old VW or some US dayvans which have double side doors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pepe63xnotuse Posted January 31, 2012 Share Posted January 31, 2012 Wasn't the previous model Ducato available with the twin hinged side doors?... :-S Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peejay Posted January 31, 2012 Share Posted January 31, 2012 Looks very neat, but I can't find any drawn layout plans. Are there any? Haven't a clue, why would you want them? Ooh!..I like that door arrangement Pete!..a slider AND a small habitation door... 8-) (..now all they've got to do, is to put it on the "proper" side... (lol) ) Could be wrong, but I don't think the 'sliding' part is retained with the conversion, its just a mould that is fitted where the sliding door used to be. I daresay it would cost too much to produce a RHD version to make it viable. gives a bit more flexability of door opening like the old VW or some US dayvans which have double side doors. If you check the link I think they do a double sidedoor option as well. Pete Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snowie Posted January 31, 2012 Share Posted January 31, 2012 peejay - 2012-01-31 7:08 PM JudgeMental - 2012-01-31 6:59 PM You dont need to live with the sliding door if its a deciding factor.... At least two German company's replace it with a GRP panel with a normal caravan door. You mean like these.... http://wohnmobile-mk.de/Reisemobilbau/index.php/wohnmobil-tur-system/ Pete Sorry, but I can't copy the jpeg, so will just comment. Nice idea, if the sliding door still worked, which with the fridge vents as shown it clearly doesn't. Ignoring the attractions of a large side door and sticking something across half of it is ok, but blinkered thinking. We really like having a large door to open and sit in, looking over the view; whenever possible. I'm sure it could be made to work as a slider with habitation door and window; and it would solve my main criticism of our van; the noise it makes after lights out if we need to go out for some reason. Now could I buy a scrap slider and give it a go?? Happy camping alan b Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brian Kirby Posted January 31, 2012 Share Posted January 31, 2012 peejay - 2012-01-31 8:23 PM Looks very neat, but I can't find any drawn layout plans. Are there any? Haven't a clue, why would you want them?.......................Pete So that I can see how the layout works on paper. Far cheaper than schlepping off to Germany just to have a look. Most firms seem to put their layouts on their websites. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lennyhb Posted February 1, 2012 Share Posted February 1, 2012 Enough photos on their website to give a good idea of layouts although it would be nice to see a plan view. And as Colin says there are variations on the door some slide as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
