I love this sweet little unique van.

[@lillywiggles8264]

That seems very reasonable! Love the modern style, luxurious little (trailer) caravan! 😊🌹🌹

[@jimmyrice5317]

I want one, just love the cozy feeling

[@Retrofordguy]

WOW! I'm no caravanner but this thing is utterly stunning I want need I say no more!

[@giuseppedallabrida5301]

fordcapri1991 f

[@MrQbenDanny]

A brilliant design of European elegance and craft with a catching name. Bravo!

[@janicegreen7553]

I need one...now This is the best designed I have seen, the interiors usually puts me off, but at last contemporary has landed.

[@Dieferdan]

Absolutely love it! Fantastic idea and very well executed

[@GrayPower60]

I would love to have this in Canada!!! Perfect for me! LOVE it.

[@dadams8360]

me too. I really want one. Small and convenient. I will have a retirement travel home.

[@vanillaorange1]

unbelievably fantastic

[@mjfeven]

Fantastic little van.

[@sandeebeech3390]

Love the retro look of this. As a Fiat 500 owner this is definitely my idea of cool. This could be aimed at people like me who are thinking of buying a small caravan but don't want a boring, traditional box on wheels. Love the interior, no naff wood-effect or nasty floral seating, instead quite a camp 'Barbie doll' look which I love. Price wise - out of my league unfortunately.

[@IngridRollema]

Gee, it would be great if they actually showed the damn thing. :-/

[@debrawolf8458]

Ingrid Rollema I agree.

[@IngridRollema]

Haha, yes, that lovely "bespoke" trailer does not have much to it aside from that.

[@Sheltieist]

Way too much talk, not enough walk

[@JohnSmith-yn8pl]

Got that right !

[@intuit5767]

WAY cool...and I love the interior!

[@lindacharles6581]

I love this!

[@sikantis61]

Very thoughtful design. Everything you need is packed in there.

[@davidcooper6704]

At a price!

[@JustJami74]

So cute! I wish these were sold in the States.

[@JamesJackson-qp9uc]

Jami you do realize that at 22,000 pounds that in Dollar's that equals over 40,000 dollars! you could buy a new full size air stream for that!

[@nightwolf1592]

To hell with the misery bunch. It's a great van, ok out of my price range but an achievement none the less. Well done that lady.

[@BrassLock]

Very beautiful and amazing amount of built-in features including wardrobe, kitchen pantry and bathroom. Pity fibreglass is so expensive, but would last a lifetime (judging by the durability of boats).

[@BrassLock]

+Marten Dekker Marten, that is truly amazing! The early recipies for resin and gelcoat must have been really good quality with ultraviolet radiation protection.

[@SCBetaRS]

“Rather FETCHING fabrics...” 🤣

[@vickikgibson9470]

It does remind me of the TAB trailers in Canada/US..which do offer some great features too, and is light, roomy and tons of cab. space, so check it out!:) I love them. Hope to get one one day, since I don't think we have this one....sigh.

[@jag8789]

I skipped through the nasal sound woman and the man on the inside showed a lot of this trailer , it's really nice and amazing for the size of it.

[@LuisGonzalez-gb4uh]

You talk too much. Just show the interior already!

[@craigfoulds8657]

British vs Americans summed up.

[@LordWilsonVILLA]

Too much talk, they should call this video 'Fast Forward'

[@Vikram-Bear]

Adorable lil caravan now all it needs is a little poodle to go with it!

[@ladycharsw]

Wow it has everything I. there enough for 1 or 2 people. Nice 😃

[@Masterclipart]

22 grand - caravans this size should be appealing to the lower end of the price market, even with that spec

[@jeneanezant]

exactly!

[@thegreenman4898]

caravans like this will apeal to dyson owners and mac users, not short of a few quid. its a beautiful design though, if it was made abroad you could probably get the price down to 10 grand. its the bromford bycicle of caravans, british design........at a price.

[@allwhatilove914]

Not really. There are small caravans made for the lower end and others made for the higher end (like this one): that can get them for choice, not for budget. I just ordered a T@B 400 very complete and it costed 27k euros. Not every time people buy small caravans because they can't afford a bigger one, there is an increasing market of people like me, that preferes to pay the same as a big or even more in something small, useful, easy to tow and fancy. There is market to everyone.

[@fingerhorn4]

Currently £24,000 for a fully specced version. That's ten times the cost of a perfectly good, dry, traditional used caravan that actually has much more room inside. This is nothing more than designer retro chic. If you don't mind paying an enormous sum for something you could buy for a fraction of the price minus the yuppie look then go ahead. How many times did the CEO say "cute", "festival", "beach" and other phrases identifying a trendy lifestyle choice rather than practicality? You can buy a brand new micro caravan with far more space inside for less than half the price, and they look quite handsome too.

[@annag2456]

It's adorable.

[@wanderingbox7971]

awesomeness want one... 😀👍

[@2261greg]

You featured a radio? Are you kidding?

[@eulahoel1409]

we do have one like this in America it's the lil snoozy this very cute n good use of space but I like the lil snoozy best it's 21,000 $

[@binkotsu]

Since it can be personalized I am sure it could have a different cook top that connects to solar power

[@grahamlack3302]

22 thou they haven't thought this one out ! .

[@davidcooper6704]

That is because it is bespoke.

[@Thomas1980]

i like it!

[@lmcwill0502]

I love it♥️💙 When can we expect them to be sold in the US? I was surprised, it even had a wet bath.

[@papiciapapicia3546]

Very nice, classy, well proportioned great little caravan with a mega price of 22, 000 pounds. Just what we need if it was not for the stiff price.

[@susancronk8512]

Love the aerodynamic shape. Beautiful and classy interior. We have Scamps and Bigfoots here in the U.S. that are a little similar, but this has some elegance to it, as well. I like the detailing around that exterior window. Love the wheel caps. But, what are the grab handles for? I am assuming that is the entry door at the rear? That is actually a nice change for this type, which our manufacturers usually put them in the middle of one side. The large viewing windows are nice, too. Single vent on the top. Not sure about how varied the climate is there. Here, with temps exceeding 100+ degrees one of the must-haves is air conditioning. Still, it's beautifully done and very nice. The light weight and towability by smaller SUVs and cars is a good thing.

[@thegreathonourandprosper52]

Very expensive but it is appealing

[@nunyabiznez4408]

cute product.

[@jetziiophelia9757]

I'm in lovee.! ♡♡♡

[@srspower]

That would look and be amazing being towed by a tesla model X in the same paintwork. You could charge it through the car too or store a massive battery under the caravans floor for extra power. I'm actually surprised Elon Musk hasn't built a caravan.

[@vigidriver6281]

To do what I really need to do, this is all I need or want for that matter.

[@kristikirk1001]

good job

[@retrodog63]

It looks like a tiny little Airstream Nest knockoff. And that's pretty cool.

[@janew4606]

Actually, no...it is pretty awesome, love the quality finishes.

[@wolfpak8228]

Nice

[@jamesc1418]

The barefoot is cozy and cute but I'm leaning towards the sol tech trailer camper. Its a little bit bigger and cost a little less. But still debating between the two.

[@macjwave3324]

magnifique j'aurai ça je serais heureux elle est canon

[@sammygonzalez7627]

you must really like it, your hair matches it's color

[@bordersw1239]

So it’s about the same weight as my old Elddis 6 berth WTF !

[@gordonmccoy4537]

Would a "Right-Side" entry door be avail for the American market? JUST the right/proper size for a weekender...! Thanks for a nice Vid...! Gordon

[@steveprice638]

The attraction is the ability to tow with a small car. The downside is the ridiculous price.

[@Ursin101]

I do like. I just wish I could put in a splendid washer/dryer all in one combo. Could I get that unit special made in this caravan?

[@ej3016]

LaTasha Ursin where are you going to put it - you could give up the toilet - hum bathroom or clean clothes - if this us for 2 or 3 day get aways I'd want the bathroom - do laundry when you get home 🙄😅

[@Ursin101]

Well Elizabeth I did not know after I made the comment there is a portable washer/dryer unit as well as a wall one. Thank you for the comment. But, I will pass. Have a blessed one.

[@64maxpower]

I like the fiberglass shell. 30000 USD says it isnt for me. But that doesn't mean its not worth it. I means i dont have 30000 to spend on a small trailer. They would be competition to the Airstream here in the US.

[@leonardomarchesi3152]

1050 kg to tow it is not a joke. Lighter caravans should be accompained by light weight otherwise they do not make sense. The design is very cool, anyway. And it seems well thought in the plant

[@dadams8360]

I want one. How can I get this and start payments ?

[@jasperedwards3341]

i would love to have a zirkuswagen with slide out pannels cost minium 25000 upwards

[@munnsaway]

Agreed...just get to the demo. I am giving up.

[@rrojasg68]

Is it available in the U.S. and cost in dollars?

[@thatdellguy]

"There nothing else quite like it." Well, actually there is. Its called a T&B by Little Guy trailers and they have been around for years. This sort of looks like a cheap knock off at the same price.

[@dawnaecook6263]

they are from the uk

[@bethpelfrey4108]

Are you ever going to display the trailer for potential buyers? Or are your dulcet tones the point?

[@jeanninespinner2244]

How would I get one in Fl.?

[@crazyfoxx78]

what you people need to learn is how to put solar panels into the outside paneling or make it so it's some type of surface that can become like a solar energy Creator and then hot wire it to your battery system so it always is able to charge at least during the daytime

[@George-ie1si]

G Money

[@pdxeditor]

Please add captioning to your videos. At least ten percent of the population has hearing loss and that is a decent market to not overlook. A word to the wise for any enterprise is to consider who is not being included in marketing communications.

[@jasperedwards3341]

i need a big tractor or w50 or unimog to move my 8 meter wagen

[@MikeDesertHunterHale]

That's a $4,000. trlr.that sells for $25,000 bullcrap, no way jose.....

[@JamesJackson-qp9uc]

Mike Hale wrong dude they said 20,000 pounds not dollars it's actually more like 40,000 dollars!

[@JohnSmith-yn8pl]

Way, way to much money. Its dead in its tracks...…….

[@michaelwalker1119]

22 grand. WTF. I will carry on making my caravan to pull behind my trike and it won cost more than £350. that includes the cost of the trailer and a new set of wheels. 6 foot long 3 foot wide 4 feet high, only need to sleep in it.

[@Exisles]

Most caravans look appealing when they are brand spanking new.

[@victorb6983]

Can you buy it in the states!???

[@michaellovesbuffalo]

how much do they cost

[@sammygonzalez7627]

Did not see you standing, any reason why?

[@Ursin101]

I do want

[@martinwest4980]

would be a Pile if garbage here in Canada...one gust of a northern wind in Alta.

[@kermitefrog64]

That is a nice looking trailer. This would also help with the cost of gasoline.

[@bengaarder2972]

I'm with Ingrid.

[@ababner317]

22,000 pounds about $32,000 dollars US.

[@DarrylMarshIyounggunzs]

I need 2 or 3 Bare foots so please I hope you bring a Fiat Panda or Mercedes Benz suv it has several symbols on the hood ,.

[@DarrylMarshIyounggunzs]

Especially the mini caravan small car so it's what you can get to me immediately ,I need more than one for my Clothing and extra food

[@robbeard6929]

To dear, no cooking as such, no awning rail, buy a Eriba Good luck to her but she's having a a laugh.

[@vickikgibson9470]

Too bad it is not available in Canada! Darn!!:( This is a great model.)

[@donroni1]

Fuck Canada. Snow bird bastards.

[@Dodusification]

Spoken like a true scholar that I am sure you are.

[@charliekendall4288]

Nice touch. Class act.

[@chogg611]

Hung like a church mouse. Hello from Canada, dumb ass.

[@greyline1012]

Vicki k Gibson Sure get it shipped over, I’m sure the shipping cost will be pennies considering the caravan is only 22 grand. Lol 😂

[@MediaWatchDawg]

All things considered, I'll stick with the Linton Travel Tavern.

[@explorer806]

MediaWatchDawg Indeed. It offers high quality accommodation and conference facilities in an ideal location equidistant between Norwich and London at competitive prices.

[@Prince77777100]

Send me one !

[@megrincovyne9376]

Pretty, but still no match for one of those old Eribas though...

[@RobertHarrisMIB]

I'm sorry you reinvented the tab but made it smaller and more expensive

[@sandiestafford4085]

Weight?

[@lancebaker1374]

"Caravan" comes from the Persian karwan "group of desert travelers" or group of folks on several camels traveling together. This sense is retained in American English, but totally lost by the British who use the term for a single trailer. Makes no sense, but there it is.

[@teresabrady3402]

Really could have done with a Barefoot , during lockdown ,😂😂

[@donkeydicked]

What a Ridiculous price ! Seriously they must be smoking their festival drugs

[@JamesJackson-qp9uc]

donkeydicked RIGHT! we Americans would just laugh and walk away! we can get something very similar for about 8,000 pounds!

[@bernardrodelalbino7721]

I love this cam.....ppppp...... I mean this woman...she is beautiful..no joke, she is awesome..

[@calgal5752]

How about actually showing the damn thing instead of talking about it?!?

[@teresabrady3402]

Yes get on with it

[@SYKOMORF]

She saw the ‘eco egg’ .... it’s obvious.

[@Roger_EC]

3:49 Video comienza/begins

[@dorisreeves8303]

This has a bathroom, shower, and toilet...cook-top, sink and a bedding area. Just no table or conversational space for upright visiting and office work. Almost, but shall keep looking. What about an a/c or heater? Can it be pulled by a hatchback?

[@patrickeh696]

look at these www.airstream.com/travel-trailers/sport/floor-plans-specifications/

[@davidcooper6704]

Who is going to buy this van at this exremely high price? I assume the Roberts radio (not a good selling point and totally unecessary) is DAB. If so it won't work if the interior lights are LED.

[@99rylee]

it is a rip off but the retro theme is awesome.

[@kindlefaith1021]

I just speed forward over all the chit chat to see the inside. Then I speed forward to hear the price. I'd rather fixup a new van for a camper.

[@antman5474]

too many subcontractors taking a cut ramps up the price syndrome going on, but having said that it looks like a practical design. Now do a blokes version.

[@timdrake719]

How is she able to use that logo? It's very close to the Barefoot alcohol makers. This is rather nice but too expensive.

[@markbaker8849]

Except a cooktop

[@abergethirty]

Caravan? Looks like travel trailer.

[@themanfromthemoon1326]

That sofa needs to turn into a full bed. Its no good if it stays like that.

[@garypugh1153]

looks like a 1950's toaster.
