I am sure I have been here before but here goes. I am looking at a Lunar Roadstar 726, 2008 van 3 litre. Its this one.

Been sending emails backwards and forwards to the dealer today but the info has dried up since I asked if it would be possible to get it weighed. I need to put a scooter rack on it and our Honda vision 110. As Lunar no longer make motorhomes I can find no real specs for it anywhere. I do have the plate readings below though that were checked today. I did find a review on here but I dont think its that model

 

 

4000kg Gross vehicle weight

5500kg gross train weight

1 2100kg front axle load

2 2400kg rear axle load.

 

 

I have a feeling its payload is around 670KG but I dont remember where I got that figure from. I think I looked at them a couple of years ago or so.

 

I Also found another one with a rack fitted but of course that does not mean its legal.

 

Anyone know? Anyone had one and had it weighed?

 

Its the long wheel base Alko chassis so ideal for a rack as long as its got plenty of payload left on the rear.

 

Other contender is a Bailey Approach SE 760 which I know from reading a post on OAL someone has put a rack on and scooter within the limits. Same chassis by the looks of it but the flaming thing is too wide for my drive. Maybe not a deal breaker. https://www.autotrader.co.uk/classified/advert/201902255280383?advertising-location=at_motorhomes&sort=distance&radius=1500&berth=6&postcode=dl117hh&make=BAILEY&page=2

The nearest OAL has is this, https://www.outandaboutlive.co.uk/motorhomes/buyers-guide/motorhomes/details/726/201

 

Thanks, That one is the 2,3 litre model but otherwise its the same I think. I have a feeling the 3 litre will add about 50kg. That may or may not be a problem. Bike on the back will compensate but I also put two folding bikes in the Luton. So would not want to over load the front axle either.

 

I need to find someone who has had one on a weighbridge really and done the sums.
