I kept hearing what you have said in other videos in my mind, I think I have watched too many of your videos! It is very nice to see that rear window view design being used still. It was common from the early 1900's into the 1970's it fell from use it seems in the 1980's for many companies. I love having the large view when you are in a scenic place. Stay safe and healthy Sir and thank you for the view of these nice rigs.

Crazy how the music matches the theme; don't think I've seen anyone else get it this right.

I do really like that layout. I like that you get a U-shaped lounge at the rear which is very appealing. The one I like best of this layout is the smaller Hymber Duomobil, the B534 DL. That one has a really nice interior and it is pretty light as well as being easier to park and all that.

A big thank you Alan for all your videos, but specifically both on the Grand Alpa which you may like to know resulted in us settling on this vehicle whilst it was in transit to NZ (skint for forseeable future btw...) The traditional layouts of permanent bed on display, condensing the lounge into mainly sitting on cab seats you have been driving in all day wasn't quite for us (perhaps more so after transitioning from wrap round lounge in our caravan). Particular selling points in our eyes (acknowledging we're all different) being able to have similar sightlines/unobstructed views to caravan, ability to seat min 6 in comfort, large kitchen with additional bench space opposite, larger than average bed, 32"pull down TV with speaker system, huge storage, 180hp 9 speed engine. In NZ the deal includes 400w solar, auto Sat dish, 2nd leisure battery, included cushion for lowered table to create another large bed. We added hydraulic self levelling system and inverter, driving camera and front and rear sensors to complement its rear camera. Folding e bikes fit in the garage easily (I know you've been dubious about smaller garage size). Given overseas trips are out for the foreseeable future at the mo, looking forward to staycations in it. All the best and thanks again Alan ;)

You never thought that there are such important details as focusing the shower floor, that gives you an idea of the space, even without taking measures, shower in a space so small that you can not soap your ass. This space in the meadle of the bes, what hell.
@badgerpa94 жыл бұрын
I doubt Alan would have any problems soaping his ass in these. The manufactures have the dimensions and tank info on their websites, use your fat little fingers and google it instead of bitching at someone that is giving you a video look at the vehicle good and bad that a manufacture will not do. He is not paid by the manufactures to do this, he does it to share his love for the vehicles use your freaking manners.
