  • THE EVER POPULAR AUTOSLEEPERS WARWICK XL
    In this video we had a look at the Autosleeper Warwick XL , A rear lounge layout with a seperate bathroom / shower , Well put together and great thought in the design with plenty of storage under the seats and ample locker space , although the rear windows not opening isn't for us , we can see why it works well with the automotive sleak look design of the 'flush to body' privacy glass , an impressive van with a not so impressive price tag! When are these insane prices going to drop …. Who knows …

    We have one, rear windows are no problems you get less flying things in
    . Just open roof or rear door or both. Shower is fabulous. Quality is high.
    Finish is great.
    Values of second hand are high

    Hi Guys
    Liking the look of the Autosleeper , with you Mike on the tinted windows , has a sleek look 😎
    It ticks a lot of boxes for me …..But the Boss (Michelle) likes the U shape lounge that you have in your van, so nice to see your reviews and the pros and cons as well as other comments from others who reply to the videos 👍🏻
    Freedoms fridge has just given up on us so milk on the outside front window is temporary 😂😂
    Ugly view of a Caravan 🤣🤣( let the fight begin)🤣🤣
    “Oops I turned it ON” anything to get the lights on Mike …😆😆
    Great video as always guy 👍🏻❤️

      Oh no! Whats happened with the fridge ? I remember we had the same happen to us in the old talbot express , ( pre youtube ) loved that van but nothing ever worked , we froze to death at night in the winter and boiled alive in the summer , fridge worked when it fancied it , we had a long bit of rope with some cokes & meat in a vacuum bag tied to the end and dropped them to the bottom of a river to keep em cold once 😂 our fridge whilst we was away 😂 , the Autosleeper was nice but a hefty price tag , about time these insane prices dropped
      Cheers again guys take care

    Great review. When we stayed at the Sandringham CC&MC site we were parked next to one of these and it had a second wind out awning on the back! They’re a great van but the lack of opening windows in the lounge puts me off. Thanks for another great review.

      Hi sylv yes that would have been the Autosleeper fairford plus , a little awning above the rear doors and roof racks etc , we’ve always liked autosleepers , nice homely interior decors but yes the lack of opening windows at the rear could put some people off

      @@TheFrenchiesMotorhomechannel After I replied I was thinking I’m sure there was two seats behind the drivers seat, so maybe that layout is the Fairford mind I could be wrong! They are great vans. I love the Autosleeper Broadway motorhome but don’t think I would like the extra width when driving.

    @RickandHeather Год назад +1

    This WAS our 1st choice for the next van but the lack of opening windows and quite a poor solar panel (80w) because of the 3 skylights is putting me off, Also I’m not a fan of gas fridges, the shower is a winner but I now like the idea of a little shelf/desk behind the driver side… the search continues but our next will definitely be 6.36m 😊

  • @y0rkiebar
    @y0rkiebar Год назад +1

    Nice.... but we ruled it out on: The non-opening single glazed windows, No garage area (this is where u-shaped lounges come in), I'd rather the additional space a 6.36m van gives you be used for something else than the toilet/wetroom and the cost given the issues.

    • @TheFrenchiesMotorhomechannel
      @TheFrenchiesMotorhomechannel  Год назад

      Yes appreciate that there is quite a bit of room in the boot/garage area in the u shapes , very handy for larger bulky items although it looked like there was plenty of room under those bench seats in that autosleeper

  • @stephenhayward6445

    I'm probably a little biased as our old girl is an autosleeper, but your u shape lounge looks a lot more inviting than that AS, as for the windows not opening I'm not sure about that, as for the rest pockets for storage worktop space etc yes lovely van, the price is the price it's a life style your buying because as a vehicle they aren't worth that sort of money, another good vlog keep them coming 👍..

      @TheFrenchiesMotorhomechannel  Год назад

      Cheers stephen , do you know I’ve never ever been in any of those executives or talismans , I like the big windows yours have , I’ve never even seen one for sale anywhere actually when we are visiting different showrooms looking for vans to review , they must be pretty rare , these new vans are ridiculous prices surely they have got to drop soon

    • @stephenhayward6445
      @stephenhayward6445 Год назад +1

      Our is an amethyst and the big windows are great in regards ventilation and views etc, but not so good for security so swings and roundabouts, don't see many for sale I think people are like us they just won't sell them due to the monocoque construction, ours is a oct 1996 so just gone into in its 27th year and though the shine has gone flat it still won't leak or deteriorate, I'm not into this stuff about old Vs new, anything that's gets you out the house is good enough no matter cost or make, prices they are what they are, is a house really worth what we pay for them ?

    • @TheFrenchiesMotorhomechannel
      @TheFrenchiesMotorhomechannel  Год назад +1

      Very true , it’s what they are worth to us and if they ain’t broke etc ….. we loved our 1989 Autosleeper talbot express , best van I ever had i loved it and cleaned it every day ! Gearbox was naffed but everything worked except the fridge , the heating , the water tank toilet and water pump 😂😂 , still loved it though , wish I’d never sold it but I spose it did play a major roll in leading up to the deposits on the last and current van , ( a chunk towards the bank loans ) , somehow though I always felt it was more of a camper than these luxury vans nowdays , kind of too much of a home from home if that makes sense , camping should be basic but do-able , after all thats the whole idea of it

    Auto sleepers have a brilliant reputation for quality, also reflected in the price ( but tbh other manufacturers are not far away price wise) however the layouts for us just don't quite work, lovely vans though no deyning that.
