Whilst I appreciate seeing those lovely campervan that 99% of us can’t afford, it would have been really nice to see what most people can afford. Enjoyed the video nevertheless.😊

[@ernestoquintero747]

Kaktus interior trim is exceptional with unique colors, cutting edge windows and roof glass.

[@BilldalSWE]

Feels like they've gotten a lot of inspiration and finishes/materials from the yacht industry which I wish more van manufacturers did.

[@tremainekent1983]

Thanks for the review as the MWB Dune Kaktus is our van and we will be posting our travel as we go. Glad you like it

[@ABusAndBeyond]

Great van! Bet you can’t wait for all the adventures!

[@luciegallagher2710]

Stunning van!

[@colinstewart173]

£190k for a van conversion. Madness 🤯

[@rubymouse6904]

They are basically huge motorhomes aren't they?? You'd need to be a retired banker to afford one.

[@murrayblair67]

Those Kactus vans are amazing! Amazing ideas like the roof,seats n lovely wood! Just waow How refreshing ❤

[@colinlee5429]

Kaktus and project yonder clearly leaps and bounds ahead! 😚

[@josh_bfc_2769]

Kaktus oasis for me. Absolute stunning. The way to go moving forward. If you want off grid, it's got to be off-road capability. The interior looks superb and the window black out button is on another level. Great video .

[@GedandMichele]

Yup loving the Kaktus (Kakti) 😊

[@tonyflanagan5682]

That cottage on wheels and the roof lining wow proper 1970s😂

[@garthtickle1707]

Wow to the cactus crew. That’s a special rig !!!

[@kevingriffin6199]

Wow, thanks for showing us all around. You're right. The cactus vans stole the show for me, bet they're expensive. Thanks once again Kev x

[@ABusAndBeyond]

Thank you so much for watching 😊

[@slacktones]

Thanks great early viewing

[@vanandcountry]

I went on Tuesday and I agree the the Cactus vans were very nice. I'd like to see the vans actually going off-road. I was chatting one guy and I asked if the fit-out had extra fixings to cope with the movement off-road, blank look! The finish on the huge Spottec conversion was exceptional but it was £200k+!!! I'm still struggling a bit with some of the very-high-top vans and it's probably me but the main difference to me is more headroom over the 'standard' height type ones. All in all a good show, thanks for sharing.

Great to see you back on the KZbin channel long time .

Superb review Shaun, great job, very professional- Kaktus was certainly the highlight for me 👍

[@grahams3417]

Great content and great commentary. Thank you.

[@joelhallam9612]

Great video as always. Thank you, looking forward to your next one 😊

[@jamiep61]

I enjoyed watching the Video. Always plenty to see at the Show Including the latest New Models 😊

[@debdavet-cornwallandbeyond1649]

Nice video . Looking forward to going on Friday and Saturday, as we continue to plan our own layout.

[@ABusAndBeyond]

Enjoy your day at the show 👍

[@robww5921]

Have been following Kaktus For a while. Great builds. Project Yonder is a new one to me though and look awesome too!

[@LeisureBit]

The Kaktus vans were great weren't they - something a. bit different which is great to see with plenty of innovation! We really liked those and also the Project Yonder van too! All the best, David & Rachel 👍

[@ABusAndBeyond]

Yeah there was some real top notch van builds there. Lots of choice, now where’s that lottery ticket 😂

[@cabbunk9906]

Great review, one of the hidden gems on the Project Yonder vans is an Ai charging system which learns how best to maximise your batteries! Game changer from them. Kaktus also look great. Both have great couples at the helm and great back-stories. Also (shameless plug 🤭) both the Kaktuses and the Wonders can become family vans with Patented Cabbunk Twin childbeds.....Ahem, I couldn't stop myself💖

[@AliWade1971]

First time watching the channel. Great walk round

[@ABusAndBeyond]

Thank you very much for joining us 😊

[@petereriksson1390]

The red Cactus! Add starlink, and here we go! Thanks from Peter Eriksson Sweden Europe with Love to freedom ❤❤❤ living!

[@nateisright]

The craftsmanship is amazing. US van customizers should take note (and maybe hire some yacht builders)!

[@chipsrafferty8362]

You are 100% correct,garbage out of the US

[@jamesgreco1827]

My favourite van was a boat 😂

[@davidmcloughlin4225]

If only you had opened the left hand barn door on the WildAx Crafter you would have see the very neat and compact power source - the Clayton Power LPS 2. Looks a brilliant bit of kit and well suited to the WildAx.

[@WOLFOUTDOORSUK]

Thanks for dropping by the Wolf Outdoors stand and checking out our products, keep an eye on our socials and website as we add new items to our range each month!

[@sjorlo2000]

That foldable hob looks great, where can I find one?

[@john.7966]

Add chapters to the video. Very helpful for viewers. Thanks!

[@seanfallon4580]

Thank you for a great review of the show 😊 I don't think Bently would fit in that dog tent though 😂

[@ABusAndBeyond]

No I think you’re right there 😂

[@philwilliams3639]

Hi, I also like the kaktus vans, they are kinda cool..

[@neilab3614]

A tent is a tent a tent a tent go to BCF much the same ,hot cold damp humid.

[@nickh8296]

Great show review. By far the best as most get bogged down in too much detail. Disappointing that the Ensuite2go wasn’t at the February show, one of the reasons we attended. Are you still hoping to review it any time soon? I know you said after the October show you were planning to. Thanks!

[@autocamping]

very interesting and different and another world of interiors and brands ,greethings from Spain

[@ABusAndBeyond]

Thank you very much 👍

[@matthewrichardson666]

Shows the increasing popularity of the Crafter and TGE as base for conversions. Few interesting builds on newer Transit customs, expect next years show will show the T7 builds starting to come through. Converters going to be fighting to get the last of the T6.1 coming through the dealer network. Knights Custom are top quality conversions on the Transporter platform.

[@SwamperJez]

Shaun, fab vlog, again, although you were missing a few crew members. Kaktus is the one for me, by far, but don't mention it to our Brutus. Hope to see you at Camper Jam or BusFest, with your (by then) finished family adventurer👍 PS - currently in Portland, vising our mutual friends, where Brutus is having a 'little' upgrade...

[@johnwhood5791]

Great vid. Would be good if you could include the price and length of all the vehicles you show us around

[@fraserconnell21]

Vans with 4 seat belt seats should have sleeping berths for 4 people. It'd be a sensible option.?

[@cabbunk9906]

You can always add two extra childbeds into any of these with Patented Cabbunk Twin. ❤

[@TheIrishMegaphone]

Very good overview but including prices info as part of the overview would have made it more interesting.

[@stanbembridge1751]

O M G absolute beauties I've owned Toyota estimates in the past for 10 years but the last 10 years I have owned Lexus RX 450h but the Alfard Or Vellfire is definitely what I'm looking for now... I think I need to surrender👍🏽👍🏽👌🏽👌🏽

[@tins81]

Czechoslovakia!!!?? It’s been over 31 years now since Czechoslovakia as a country existed!!

[@ABusAndBeyond]

Yes, it was a mistake. We mean Czech Republic of course. We are sorry if this has caused you any offence.

[@peteypops]

I can see some of these lovely vans after a trip through the red dust of northern Western Australia…a nightmare to clean. Lovely, nevertheless….if only….we will just plod on with our T6 and dream.

[@Coaster_Crazy]

Great video mate

[@ABusAndBeyond]

Thank you very much 😊

[@WildLiveTV]

Yes the Kaktus was very nice. I realized most of the nice vans are 4x4s. I‘m wondering, does anybody make nice roadgoing vehicles without a mudoption? And still no electrical powered options…hmm…😢

[@gbwildlifeuk8269]

That delamere tent - most sites wouldnt let you put that up.

[@zenmachine50]

No incinerator toilets? when they come in it'll be a game changer..

[@rosc4321]

Great channel and love the vids! I've just one requestm would it be possibiel to state if the vans are standard car licence or C class and what their MIRO is. It would be super helpfull to rule models in or out in terms of suitability. Apart ffrom that keep it up!

[@ABusAndBeyond]

Great suggestion thank you for your feedback!

[@herbyhannan1675]

If people stopped paying nearly 200 grand for a VAN, then the companies wouldn’t charge that much for them, but if retirees will throw away good money,these companies will gladly accept it,

[@procue]

Very nice video.wish you would of told us the prices

[@orkusmg]

Someone tell this dude Czechoslovakia does not exist since 1992

[@rangerider51]

I liked that orange one. What kind is it? Send it to America with the steering wheel on the left side.

[@fvingerhoed]

fancy all those induction cookers, but no way you can boondock with those. ..

[@greggoodbyecars3832]

love that red van did they put a price on it ?

[@raygeary1698]

Auto explore like autosleeper Kingham copy 😮

[@Daffy0208]

The Wildax at the beginning had a shocking interior. Why do they insist on the 70s caravan formica wood?!!

[@keithdavidson1280]

Is this van built in the UK?

[@justkidding9751]

Your favourite word COOL

[@neilab3614]

More American vans Aussies are lagging behind dam hard to find much here.

[@diwarburton5369]

It’s a shame that you only featured MAN and similar sized vans. It would have been nice to have seen some Transporter and Caddy conversions as well.

[@dogson5000]

Didn’t the teardrop camper with the washing machine doors have a fold out kitchen at the back?

[@garybarlow4294]

Nice video would be nice if you could tell us the cost of the items so when I win the lotto I can visit the UK and buy some new toys

[@kellymelrose8527]

rich people toys arent they ... i wouldnt swap my self built iveco for any of them.. even tho i have a bucket for a loo..i like the fact that i know it inside out and it can easily be adapted..

That properly made me laugh 😂

[@mccoysmedia]

190k for a sprinter conversion though….. wow 😂

£195 k ! For that Sprinter.....who could realistically afford that I wonder ? Can't see anyone with that budget buying a campervan...... they'll be in St Tropez supping cocktails.. great vans but mega £££££.

[@FM-db3ft]

I’ll stay at some of the top hotels in the world for the next 40 holidays and I won’t spend 195k/gas/maintenance etc.

[@ABusAndBeyond]

I’d say a Campervan holiday maybe isn’t for you then! 😂

[@FM-db3ft]

@@ABusAndBeyond I’ll rent one when I want one. Price of ownership and depreciation is a waste of $ unless you have $ to waste.

All these fancy vans ,with all these not needed ‘extras are just plain HEAVY. Too heavy unless they owner want to get an HGV licence with the bullshit medical requirements. All motorhomes fall for the weight trap.

[@chriswoolacott]

But its a beast

[@Invertmini1212]

These are as much as a home.. At that price youre better off buying a solid base 4x4 model and building it out yourself.

[@flashback9966]

WARNING, before you splash out £65K+, by 2028 46% of all vans sold must be fully electric. Otherwise manufactures incure a £15K fine for every non ZEV van sold. This will mean a lot of petrol stations will start to disappear or be converted to EV charging. Your loverly van may crash in value. . .

[@grahamatsea3575]

😂😂😂😂 more likely diesel vans will become more in demand as people don't want electric ...... as for fuel stations disappearing 😂😂😂

[@flashback9966]

@@grahamatsea3575 Sorry, but It's already started. 5% of petrol stations closed in 2023. And to rub in the salt, 75% increase in EV chargers installed 2022 to 2023. It will be just like ULEZ, few saw it coming until it was too late. . .

195k for a van with 2 completely useless seats taking up room for no reason when the van can very clearly only sleep 2, no need to have more seats than beds in a campervan. NO THANKS!

[@andrewthornhill4229]

Went yesterday and thought what a disappointing show stalls selling rubbish things what have nothing to do with the show like people doing your eyebrows cureling you hair massages garden furniture plus not enough places selling extra wanted a gas part for a gas bottle not one place selling them and some of the prices for stuff overpriced a single bed bottom sheet custom made £46

[@cabbunk9906]

Economics of the madhouse, I am afraid..The NEC shows are SO expensive for small family firms that are the lifeblood of accessories. £10,000 for a week plus staffing and expenses to stay is out of the question. We would love to take stands, but keeping our companies stable and in business must always come first. Come on, NEC, make a bigger, more exciting, more varied show possible with an 'autojumble/accessories supermart' , affordable stands and loads of choice. Yessss

[@matthewrichardson666]

The issue is the cheaper stuff is hardly worth carting there. Easily available online.
