    Karina You have got to be one of the best reviewers of Caravans and Motorhomes out there and Jules what brilliant camera work.

    Both of you are very aware of your audience. I really like how you keep us from getting disorientated and know exactly which way you are looking. Also, Jules does a very good job of getting footage of things that aren't always so clear when doing the piece to camera. E.g. the light above the cabinet in the toilet. As for the caravan, this kind of size, is too big to be enjoyable here in Japan with the exception of the northern island of Hokkaido. The towing would be far too stressful and the caravan would be very restrictive in where you can go. There is a Japanese channel called 'Vi-again Village' who has gone from towing a Hobby caravan to a humongous twin axle American camping trailer. He's already noticed the difference in where he can go! For those that live in places where a large caravan is feasible, I envy you and this Buccaneer is exceptionally nice and well thought out inside. A very nice caravan indeed.

      Hello Japan and thank you very much for watching. Yes, this is a big caravan, there are parts of the UK where it would be difficult to take this too, especially some of the narrow country lanes. I do like the small caravans too, they all offer something different 😊

    Thanks for the great in depth review. One thing I would point out, next to the water inlet on the outside of the van is an external shower point, you said 1 was for an aqua roll and 1 for mains. The inlet can do both.

    Good to see your reviews back and starting with the new van we have on order (since Jan ‘22 and still not received 😬) , great to watch a more detailed walk through having only seen one once in the ‘flesh’ at the NEC ‘22, hopefully it will be arriving in the next few weeks, have opted for leather after your original video of the new model launch some time ago along with aircon Hypnos mattress etc etc
    Will have to make do with watching this new video a few more times before we actually get to collect ours 😉👍🏻

    • @HereWeTow
      @HereWeTow  Год назад +2

      Oh I hope your is with you very soon, the waiting is awful when you just want to get out there. The leather is a good choice..I prefer it to the fabric. I hope you get yours soon.. have a great week 😊

    Surprised Elddis don’t specify more fridge shelves. Same as our Avante there
    Is just the 1 small and 1 larger shelf. Coachman specify 2 larger shelves from Dometic I believe. And to add another is £85 which is a bit of a piss-take on a £45k+ van!

    • @HereWeTow

    Very good review. No other reviewers show you under the seating storage spaces and it also would have been good to see the under the bed storage. And I am unsure as to the gas storage facility. Also how easy is it to set up the bed in the lounge.

    • @HereWeTow
      @HereWeTow  Год назад

      Thank you for watching and I will try to include some under storage. Usually the front beds take about a minute to set up once you pull out the slats and lay the cushions down. Enjoy your weekend 😊

    I agree with you concerning the table . why didnt the designers think about possibly putting in a pull out unit holding or gripping the table? Surely they would have means tested everything they designed ? Or ...something that could spring out on sliders with a push button .

    Nice van, but with the weight I would say it would be good on a seasonal pitch. One thing I am curious about I have never had a van where the toilet flush is fed from the on board tank, so can you still use a flush fluid in it?

    • @HereWeTow
      @HereWeTow  Год назад +1

      Thank you for watching..no, the water is just fresh water from the system. People sometimes make a spray if they want a pink flush but water does the trick just fine. It is the same on any motorhomes 😊

    Good review as always. But just to correct a few things at the beginning you mentioned the Barracuda is a new model it’s actually been out for few years now. Also the seamless panels and light clusters you say are new were all introduced last year for 2022 models when the Buccanner range was completely restyled outside as we have a 2022 Commodore. You reviewed them all in September 2021 at Elddis launch for model year 2022. But still a very good review.

    • @HereWeTow
      @HereWeTow  Год назад

      Yes, I meant it was the new shape Buccaneer model..when I watched it back myself I thought it sounded like the Barracuda was a new model..🙄With covid 2021 still seems very recent to me 😆 Thank you for watching and I hope you have enjoyed your weekend 😊

    As always, a good review and professional tour. I am only disappointed with Elddis, the top model with the same flaws as all models. No shelves in the kitchen cabinets and the windows are not frame windows. On cold days the windows fog up. The payload is absolutely unacceptable, so the camper is unsuitable for travel and only something for permanent campers.

    47K no way is it worth that, 9k cheaper is the Bailey and a far better payload of 313kg compared to the 169kg for the Buccaneer !
