Fresh off the press on my You Tube Channel: www.youtube.com/watch?v=_3kD6c4yvWIVery Bijou. It's at the 2011 Autumn NEC show. £30,000 for this mini 17ft coachbuilt but with a payload of only 300 kgs. Self-build anyone?!

I looked at a few of these when buying my van. I quite liked them but they're too big and bulky for me, fuel economy isn't so good and I didn't feel the build quality matched that of Romahome.

True, the main advantage of these, which I didn't make properly clear in the video (I'll add a note) is that you get standing room throughout the van which of course makes them higher.

It's both an advantage and a disadvantage - nice to have full headroom but not so good to be unable to slide beneath height barriers to reach some of the best wilding spots and picnic areas!

I'll take the headroom any day. Probably 20 years of car camping has turned me against the lumbago weekend ;D

I'll stick with accessibility. I like to go to the places others can't reach and have them all to myself!!
