I never understand why people always need more space. Surely camping is all about leaving most things at home. To replicate a home that just moves about has missed the point it seems to me.

Couldn’t have put it better myself. For us the fun of wild camping was leaving all the trappings of home at home and enjoying our surroundings. We’ve never had a telly in any of our vans.
 
on a positive note about this van the colour is garish but the slide outs certainly give a lot of space in a small van
 
I do hope they aren't using the same system as on the Adria I came across in Spain a few years ago.
It had two motors on the slide out controlled by a micro processor to keep them in sync, they obviously had a problem with them as the guy that owned it said he had bought it from new and it had been back almost more time than he'd had it.
Hear speaks a technophobe.
 
I like it apart from the colour thats a 12 berth van in China. I must be the opposite of most I want all the comfort I can get when away especially want to be able to stand up inside and defanetly don’t want to be pooing in buckets and being able to take a shower is handy.
 
I really like the Iveco it’s a pleasure to drive had a hired one to move some stuff just felt like it could do the job all day.
 
I've always wondered why more vans aren't built on Iveco bases.
They are obviously popular with Transport companies, and supermarket's delivery companies..
Is it a payload problem ?
 
They find it difficult to get them down to 3.5 tone. I was looking at buying a new crew cab tipper a couple of years ago and by the time they put tipping gear on it was going to be over. I would have had to put a taco in so left it and went for transit.
 
My iveco drives as nice as a car, the only problem is bumpy or a road with a dip and rise as the torsion bar front suspension hits the stops lifting the front wheels of the ground, there is more adjustment so that's my next we job come warmer weather.
 
At 3.5 T GVW Iveco's struggle to make sense, unless it's all about $. At 7.2 t GVW they are in a league of their own at the moment.
 
I've got a 3.5 tonne mwb high top panel van , fell over it at the local auction. Replaced a mk 5 transit . Longer ,taller more manouverable an more economical. And it'll start on a cold frosty morning wi no bother. And as yet no tin worm.

Fords were never good at starting in mornings hence were fitted with heated rear screen to keep your hands warm when pushing them.
