Adria Adora Seine 2022/2023

[@Whammofest]

Hi Karina. We've had a 7 year sabbatical from caravaning and couldn't be sure what make, model or layout to opt for. Having seen this video and especially the rear exterior, we were sold. Delivery Aug 1st 24. We like those shelves, the IKEA look and the simplicity of the Adora. Not keen on those pesky little spotlights and the old-fashioned roller blinds but we can compromise. Thank you for matching us up with a fantastic caravan.

Oh fantastic, congratulations on your new caravan purchase and I hope you enjoy getting back in to it!!🤩👍

As a 2018 Seine owner I was very interested to see what design changes have been made. I like that the door now opens the opposite way which allows for a bigger lounge window. I don’t find the pull out rack that useful I like to use the cupboards and drawers so am sad to see that the drawer size has been reduced. I agree with you about the moveable shelves and it looks like there is no longer a shelf above the head of the bed which is a shame. I am pleased to see the end of the fruit bowl sink but would have liked some surface space to keep hand soap etc. I like the exterior of the caravan it looks very sleek and the front locker looks easier to use especially when removing larger items such as the aqua roll. Great review as always Karina, your honesty is commendable thank you 😊

[@HereWeTow]

Thank you Ann, it is good to hear an owners opinion to compare this and the model we had too. Have a lovely weekend, Karina

I like the felt boxes and trays. I have one next to the sink with scourer and washing up liquid and the others dotted about the caravan for chargers, plugs and other bits. They only slant if you don't click them into place properly. When you hook the metal part onto the rail, push it down to lock in place.

Thanks Barbara..it is good to hear from an actual owner about how they get on with them. 😊 Enjoy your Adria and your travels.. Karina

[@rubberdc]

good evening Karina . great choice of van here, love that front locker and the silver colour . I like the simple decals , nothing too flash .I so agree with you re those silly felt boxes and trays .The company must have bought in loads so they have to use them up .

[@HereWeTow]

Thank you for watching and leaving feedback about your thoughts on the caravan. 😊 Karina

Hi Karina, thanks for the review. We purchased our 2022 Adora Seine from John at Cara. We asked about ATC and John advised towing it first without as the Adria towing frame is so good. We’ve now been across to France and back and it tows beautifully as John said it would. Absolutely rock solid and so pleased we didn’t go for ATC. We like the clean lines - minimalistic so we can easily create a character and look vs all the UK caravans which were just too ….well….. UK and so cluttered. And as for the single beds…..they’re brilliant …. I’m 6ft 3 and couldn’t find a uk manufacturer with a single bed long enough. The Truma aircon has been a lifesaver with all the summer heat and the E&P full hydraulic system makes levelling a breeze….. and easy to change a tire if you get a puncture. I supposed we’re biased having bought the Seine but we did months of research and this was found to be excellent value for money.

[@HereWeTow]

Thanks for sharing your experience with your Seine and I am glad you are loving it. I alway chuckle when people say they wouldn’tbuy an Adria without ATC, to be honest I wouldn’t want one with it. They tow very well…enjoy your travels and your Seine 😊 Karina

[@davidmbell]

Ooooooooh loving that bathroom sink! (I’m such a messy wet shaver!)

[@HereWeTow]

😊😂 Thanks for watching David

[@sambaker1221]

Nice to see a single bed layout..good review as always.

[@HereWeTow]

Thanks for watching 😊

From Canada: those spacers between the drawers under the galley sink, although aesthetically pleasing, contribute to reduce the usable height of each drawer.

[@HereWeTow]

Hello Canada 🇨🇦 Thank you for watching 😊 Karina

The caravan is fantastic the one and only problem is you can't sit on the toilet there is not enough room between the si k and the wall.

[@HereWeTow]

Thanks for watching Alan.. are these problems you have had as an owner?

[@alanjones3771]

I do not own one but we woog love one if not for the space on the toilet we own a coachman 460 vip 2021 we are hoping they do something about the problem for 2025

[@HereWeTow]

@alanjones3771 The Coachman is a lovely caravan 😊 My friends have a Seine but haven’t mentioned the loo space, I must say our Isonzo bathroom was small compared to the rest of the caravan. That was the compromise on that model. I hope you find a suitable replacement to your VIP 😊

[@christinespiers3947]

I really like most of it but Kitchen definitely needs more work surface

[@HereWeTow]

Thank you for watching and I agree, it is disappointing it hasn’t been improved 🤷🏼‍♀️

[@anneshirley1748]

Like this van but prefer the previous one. I'm not a fan of single beds! Agree about the little shelf and baskets, ridiculous place in the kitchen but bedroom, yes! Very similar bathroom too. Good review again, thank you for your efforts to show these to people, nice one! Hugs xx

[@HereWeTow]

Thank you for watching Anne.. have a great week and enjoy the cooler weather 😊

[@childofthe60s100]

Did you sat NO ATC???

[@HereWeTow]

Yes no ATC.. to be fair I dont like ATC and the Adria has the long A Frame which makes it very nice to tow. For some buyers though it would be a big no and put them off. Thank you for watching 😊 Karina

[@rubberdc]

Tbh, i find the interior a bit boring , and for £30k I think i expected a little more decoration , but i suppose once all your own gear is in it along with nice bedding and such it cheers up .

[@HereWeTow]

Yes, its very…minimalist 🤷🏼‍♀️ 😊

[@stephentsale]

We ordered our new Adria Alpina on the 18 August 2021. Still no sign of it. Our dealer is tearing his hair out. We've now been told that when it does arrive, it might be "missing bits" such as the ATC which is a requirement of our insurer. Adria are fantastic at marketing and pumping out demo models but like so many manufacturers, they just cant deliver. So, think ahead. If you want it this side of Spring 2023, maybe best to look elsewhere. Or maybe even just stick with what you have got for now because I would guess that all new caravan manufacturers are suffering the same trouble.

[@HereWeTow]

Thanks for watching and I am sorry to hear about your delays. I remember waiting for ours and it was like torture. We recently got a new car and that is missing the electric steering wheel column. I have heard people having delays across many of the manufacturers. Your Alpina will be amazing when you do get it..it is a great choice. Have a good weekend, Karina 😊

[@rubberdc]

we have a bedroom shelf .....chortles ....

[@childofthe60s100]

We went to look at a new Seine, with a serious intention of leaving a deposit. Nice layout, well put together and well specified BUT It feels like you are in a caravan, where all the cupboards, fittings and fixtures have all come from IKEA. A very sterile environment with no character at all - just a mass-produced product (albeit well made) that had no "Wow Factor" at all. There was no "warmth" to the colour scheme - too many blank white surface (including an uninspiring rear panel) and the utilitarian furnishings could be made to look more welcoming. Good value for money but surely they can do better - at that same price? It was a pity - we had travelled a long way to be so disappointed. Now that ADIA have finally adopted the UK layouts, it's time to add some UK style-flair, rather than producing an interior that looks like a Swedish waiting room.

[@HereWeTow]

Thank you for leaving a comment about your experience. Adria has been likened to Ikea before in comments. Im sorry the Seine wasn’t for you and I am sure you will find the right one.. thanks for watching, Karina 😊

[@HitchUpAndTow]

30k plus and no ATC, I think I'd haggle.

[@HereWeTow]

😂 You probably haven’t towed an Adria.. I would pay not to have ATC..😂 Have a fantastic weekend and hope you’re both ok 😊 Karina
