Over the years, I've often praised Consort Motorhomes, a relatively young company based in Leeds. Consort was set up by Scot and Jane Naylor, the former owners of Vantage Motorhomes. What sets them apart is that they use their motorhomes regularly, and this shows in their design. These are truly motorhomes designed by motorhomers, as opposed to the norm these days--motorhomes designed by accountants!
I've mentioned in the past that if they made a fixed-bed version of their van, I'd buy one. (We hate making up beds.)
Here are a couple of my old posts on the subject:

Well, I've just read a press release about their Factory Open Week on the 22nd of October. Tucked away at the bottom of the release, it says, "New Fixed Bed Models on Display." I called Scot and asked for pictures, but he said I'd have to wait for the open day! All he would tell me was that the new fixed-bed model will be called the Consort Duet.
So, guess where I'll be on the 22nd? And, Sod's Law, I've just finished loading up my Fixed bed Adria Twin and got it exactly how I want it! For the sake of my wallet, I'm half hoping they'll be awful, but knowing their vans as I do, I bet they'll be fantastic.
If you intend to buy a PVC at the NEC in October, my advice is to hold off until you've seen what Scot and Jane have to offer the following week.

Consort motorhomes "Lifes too short"
Ive been watching these 2 for a while now, and found them ending up going to Consort motorhomes for a new van, a converter at Leeds having been let down by a VW transporter not happening. Though initially, Id say they are just not my cup of tea. but I find them strangely watchable and a lovely...
