Coachman VIP 575 2018 - caravan review

[@SimonIngram]

Gorgeous indeed. However the lack of an important large one piece front locker is not for me.

Thanks, Simon, for your feedback. :-) Can you expand on why that's a problem for you?

[@SimonIngram]

The main reason I decided against buying a Bailey Unicorn Madrid was because of the absence of a front locker (and other external storage). Like previous caravans and the current Coachman VIP 520/4 purchased does have this, and I find it important to be able to store light weight items such as the Wastemaster (with wheels detached), Aquaroll handles, and levelers in there. Without this storage space, it would need to be stored inside the caravan and the only place would be in the wardrobe with the clothes, not ideal, and the shower houses the Aquarolls whilst travelling. The car is full with folding chairs, tables, awning, and the dog! My preferred way of travelling is fairly light with everything inside the caravan stowed away, with the weight evenly distributed, leaving the floor and seating clear for stop offs en-route for tea/lunch etc. This issue with no front locker ceases to be an issue with a fixed bed layout, as there is usually under bed storage. Fixed bed layouts are not for me, current VIP is superb, but the next one is likely to be a Swift/Bessacarr.

Thanks, Simon. Great to know. That will help readers.

I don’t get the logic of having 2 gas bottles over one corner, to counter balance that by putting a lot of stuff in the other locker is going to cause havoc with the nose weight. The spout in the toilet wash hand basin is an accident waiting to happen.. it sticks out like a spear .

Good points, Scott.
