Go on, say it, scoo ta, scoo ta, there it’s easy. My Sym HDi 200 goes on the back of mine a treat, no slouch either, 70 mph easy. Unicycle would fit in the half garage too.View attachment 420234

Hmmm...... Nice set up, but my main bike does over 100mph - in FIRST gear (it has 6 gears)

There are quite a few similarities on the iSmove to my 2005 Arto 69GL, which for all of its practicalities would be difficult to beat - but I think this iSmove may beat it. Only owner reviews will prove how practical it is, but if N&B keep the quality and attention to detail the same, then I am sure they are in to a winner. I wonder what sizes they come in?

I expect under the end of each bed like all Twin bed layouts have.

Not all ... our Campscout didn't have the wardrobe there although the later ones do as they moved the boiler from the foot of the nearside bed to under the dinette which we thought was a backwards step.

That was a PVC not an A Class.

I can't see what all the fuss is about 100/200 ltr water tank? 50ltrs is big enough for anyone and you can still have a shower once a week whether you need one or not.

Your Compactline has a 150Lt water tank.

And thats it in a nutshell; we've seen how the C tourer and the Exsis worked out, it will be a shame if N&B go the same way.

My last van was an Exsis, good van for the price we wouldn't changed except we got a silly deal on the current van.
C Tourter is a good van my best mate recently changed from a C Tourer to a Chic E-Line very similar build quality.

Well the thread is about an A Class van.

It was tongue in cheek Lenny to be fair, but for sure the C1 license is becoming rarer and rarer and the industries response is to produce (balsa wood vehicles) when IMHO they should be focusing on lobbying for an LVL Leisure Vehicle License.
I think this subject is worthy of further debate so for the moment I'll leave it there,and when I haven't had a drink

start a new thread on the subject.

Was it you who overtook me on the way to Sawbridgeworth today at over a ton ? Doing a wheelie ?

Not me, but I did two 5 mile wheelies (10 miles total) along the front in Swansea on my unicycle - max speed about 10 mph!

€90,000 you will need to add €20,000 of options, not a bad price.
Buy in Germany probably get a 15% discount need to allow for German vat only 16% at the moment. So could probably get on the road for around £87,000 at current exchange rates, if the pound recovers to 1.2 that would drop it to 81k.
If you buy from the uk's only importer you will probably pay well over 100k.

Edit will be about 2k less I worked on current German vat rate of 16% price list is at 19%

Plus import duty by the end of the year.

looks an amazing Motorhome and very Chic

Thank god....some fresh thinking and not the usual 50 shades of beige!

I very much doubt there will be any import duty, too much trade on cars both ways.

Wake up Karen it's been on their site for at least 3 months.

With Travelworld being the only UK dealer far better to buy in Germany.

Naughty Facebook ad. made it sound like their website had just been updated!

It will be interesting to see how UK pricing compares but agree it is not usually favourable. We like some of the design ideas but not in the market for one of these.

I went in one earlier this week. What a disappointment! Ive had N&B for the past 15 years, three of them and have always liked the feeling of lasting quality. The word that best describes the l-smove is Flimsy! Everything I touched felt like it was about to break .

That because we had been it it before you Jon, I wasn't too keen on not having any wall cupboards in the lounge, well just one over the TV and the kitchen cupboards had no shelves in and the insides were black with no light, and the fridge

all things considered I don't think we will be getting one anytime soon.

Do all A class generally wiegh more because of that monster windscreen?

We couldn't figure out where clothes or food would fit! Tbf I thought it was nicely styled but yes totally agree about the black Martin.

I think I agree with that. We are better off in Poland as there is no dealer and N&B say we can buy direct from factory.

Not that I am about to buy this model, because I respect Jon's and Martin's opinions - we and a few others discuss 'A' Class models often so we know what each other values in build.

That's what happens when your build aim is 3500kg.

Generally on a normal sized A Class is probably not that much heavier 10 - 20 kg perhaps. Like for like models the A Class version is only 50kg more.

They cant be made from candy floss, composite materials can feel very lightweight yet immensely strong it will be interesting to hear from those who order one......just wait until graphene becomes commercially viable.
