Thanks for watching our videos. We include all things to do with motorhomes, campervans, van conversions, caravans and the great outdoors. We mainly tour the UK and camp around 80 nights per year in our 2021 IH Motorhomes N-680 CRL luxury VW Crafter van conversion. We offer advice, tips and tricks, review campsites and associated products or services. We also occasionally make videos about other trips we take without the motorhome.

Thanks, some interesting vans there. Liked the Swift Select 164 with the French bed. Mind you, the Adria Twin with swing wall washroom...
We quite liked the CV80 😉
It's amazing what they can fit in a van conversion. Thanks for showing us around, some great van there.👍Mark
Thanks Mark, the van conversion market is getting more and more competitive and they are stuffed full of goodies 😃👍🏻🚐 Trev
Hi Trev & Sue, really enjoyed a look around Brownhills, thanks. We would need a lottery win though to buy anything. My sister bought two Motorhomes from them in recent years and didn’t have too many kind words for them I’m afraid, although she did make good use of the member services! Thanks for sharing, Cheers Dave & Helen
We have heard good stories in recent years but I believe their reputation was grim 10 years ago. They have impressive facilities and a good range of the “mid price” Motorhomes and van conversions. We didn’t see anything over £90,000 in their showrooms. 🙂🚐 Trev
Enjoyed the look around. The Swift (164 think it was) bed in the back looked a decent size and I haven’t seen one like that either - very interesting, looked like the Elddis CV60 but with more room. Great to see the vans and the differences between the manufacturers- thanks for sharing, David 👍
We love doing the comparisons David, there is a lot of competition in the van conversion market now which is making it very interesting 😃🚐 Trev
Some really nice van conversations there guys 👍 love seeing all the different layouts 👏 thanks for showing us round 😉👍 ... 🤗❤️👵🏼🐾🐾🤠 xxxx
It’s amazing how competitive the manufacturers are getting and provide so many different layouts, styles and equipment levels. It’s great to get ideas for our own vans 🚐😀👍🏻 Trev
Finally caught up, the 164 swift is nice and thanks for the look at the CV80, still yet to see one in the metal, Sues comment about 3 in a bed….. something you’re not letting on? Pampas grass brigade what? 😂🖤🏴☠️
LOL you never know what’s going to happen when reviewing campervans 🤣🤣 Trev
Hi Trev and Sue, thank you for the van reviews, Sue did a good job as usual, you will be out of a job soon Trev, ha ha , thank you for showing us around x
Thank you Julie. I am please Sue gets so involved, it makes it more fun, particularly when we disagree over various things 😉 Trev
Well done Sue with your reviews. Was lovely to see you at Milestone. We were pitched next to your friends. No. 66. Look forward to your next vlog.
Ah what a shame we didn’t get to say hello and have a natter. We really enjoyed Milestone and we spent a lot of our time there planning our summer holiday with Kev and Tracey. Safe onward travels and hope we see you again in your Swift 😀🚐 Trev n Sue
Nice day out Sue and Trev, looking forward to looking around at NEC 😁
It was great to look around vans again 👍🏻🚐 Trev
Enjoyed the tours of these. It really makes sense for a couple to get one of these, rather than a motor home. They have everything a motor home has, but probably a lot better gas mileage.👍😊💕
The vans are more economical to drive and they fit into smaller parking spaces which is very convenient here. Thanks for watching 😃🚐 💕 Trev n Sue
Hi Trev. I must say Sue is very good at commenting on your videos, but I'm afraid I could NOT take her shopping because she LOVES everything. !!! Lol
Keep them coming guys and thanks for sharing.
Sue is easily pleased and is passionate about nice vans. If we don’t review it, you know we don’t like it 😉🤣🤣 Thanks for you great comments 👍🏻 Trev
Don’t start Sue….🤣😂 I’ve just got rid of my Adria van to exchange for IH 🤭 That grey is Fiat Lanzarote Grey, which will be the colour of my IH (when it arrives). Glad to see Adria have changed the sink design in the washroom, as mine was impossible to get your head/face over with the corner mirror above it - now oval and I think swings out a bit. A few vans have now adopted the swing shower wall and sky roof over the cab. Nice vid, thank you… Cheers Deb 🚐
You will love the IH. The hand built quality is second to none in our opinion. We wouldn’t swap Smirf 😉 But we do love looking at all the shiny new vans 😃🚐👍🏻 Sue n Trev
@@PoshcatsCamping 😅Thanks goodness for that……🤣 I must admit, the quality was the first thing I noticed stepping into an IH 👍 Having owned Adria with fixed rear bed and dinette area, I’m really looking forward to sitting/relaxing in U shaped lounge - and the bed looks so simple to quickly throw together (and at last a sofa that Hamish can get on and have a view - to bark at passes by🙄 Schnauzer📢🤣). Cheers Deb 🚐🍻
Really great tours! I'm still amazed by what they can fit into these vans. Thanks for sharing. 😊
Thank you Angela. They pack lots of equipment in the small vans now. We love looking at the different ones 😀🚐 Trev
Lol, that comment about not affording one every year. So true. Think the price tags are what make me want to convert myself.
LOL yes the numbers just get bigger and bigger 😵💫 Trev
I’ve got the Elddis Autoquest CV60, she is gorgeous. The only thing I would change is the washroom, it has to have a curtain. I wish it had the folding wall instead but you can’t have everything. Great reviews guys, thanks. ❤️
The CV vans are really lovely. There’s no perfect van but there’s certainly a lot of choice these days 🚐 Thanks for your comments 👍🏻😃 Trev n Sue
Happy to see the new vans, very nice indeed. Me personally, I don't like the pop-up roof on the one, but that's just me. :o)
It was a really big pop up compared with some campervans but we wouldn’t find a use for it most of the time. Britain is too cold and damp 😃 take care 🚐 Trev
Great vlog, Sue and Trev.. good to see Sue doing some of the reviews, and coming over so well. We were really interested to be able to look around the van conversions. As you know, we are still toying with the idea of changing our Meggie for a smaller van. Quite like the look of the Rapido V55 and 62 or the Dreamer variants of those models. Only seen videos of them, so far.. as still not getting out and about much. if you come across any of them on your travels, maybe you could have a shifty of them, and tell us what you think? Take care , both of you. Keep up the excellent videos.
Thanks for your lovely comments and so good to hear from you. We will keep my eyes open for those models 😃👍🏻 Take care 🚐 Trev n Sue
Beautiful vans adria my fav thanks for showing me around trev and sue all the best donny
Thanks Donny, hope you are well 😃🚐 Trev
@@PoshcatsCamping funny you should say that trev I got bloody covid lol 😆
@@donnysweekendvanlifetravel7854 oh heck ! There’s a lot of it about 😝 hope you feel better soon 👍🏻🚐
We ordered an eldiss cv40 from Brownhills a couple of weeks ago, looking at 1st of October up to yet... Fantastic place, thanks for the tour 👍👍👍👍
The Elddis CV vans look very nice. We were impressed with the facilities at Brownhills which will be featured in part 2. Congratulations and good luck with your new van 👍🏻🚐 Trev
@@PoshcatsCamping thank you 😊 😊 😊 xx
@@PoshcatsCamping we've gone for the automatic, 22 plate with the new series 8 cab 😊
Very enjoyable, some nice vans 😊👍
Thanks Mark 😀👍🏻
Trevor watch out Sue likes the Swift select...hide the cheque book
Oh yes the cheque book is definitely hidden 🤣🤣 I got off lightly this time 👍🏻😃🚐 Trev
We’re on van number 5 - all bought from Brownhills.
Sounds like you are a fan 😃 We enjoyed our look round and were made very welcome by Brownhills staff 👍🏻🚐 Trev n Sue
Very nice vans
Yes we love looking at the shiny new vans. Thanks for watching 😃👍🏻🚐 Trev
I just love looking at RVs with you 2! If I ever win the lottery, I'm going to special order a campervan from England and have it shipped to Canada! Can I count on you guys to help me pick one out when said lottery is won?
Haha, yes we would be honoured to come and help you spend your lottery win. 🤣🤣 Thank you and hope you are both well and warm during these winter months 🚐👍🏻 Trev n Sue
When will the crazy prices ever end, probably never, the wonderful world of motorhoming is gradually moving further away from reality as it moves away from the grasp of so many folks , 65k for a swift van conversion!, great review though guys
The prices go ever higher and the deals seem more difficult to find but still more and more vans are being registered every year. It’s frightening 😯 Trev
Not enough detail about the length,insulation of van,etc
Ah, OK we will address that in future videos. Thanks for your feedback 🙂👍🏻🚐 Trev
Do not touch Brownhills, they have ripped me off big time, they are completely unscrupulous.
Sorry to hear that. I think there are bad experiences had at all dealerships and it’s important to hold them to account if you received bad service. 🙁 Trev
Please do the van reviews with only one person reviewing. Too much natter.
Ahh… OK thanks for the feedback, we will take note 👍🏻🙂🚐 Trev n Sue
I don’t agree it’s good to hear your conversation and view points. Keep up the good work
Just subscribed
Thanks Charles
@@charlesdickinson7180 Thank you and welcome. We will strike a balance and try not to talk over each other. It's sometimes difficult when we get excited about things. Plus, we don't want to become salespeople or professional presenters, it's a hobby after all. :-)
I totally agree with you.
Just carry on being yourselves. Your passion is what caught my attention
Thanks again Charles
