This is a beautiful and clean work, guys. When you buy a 4x4 motorhome, you want it to be custom. But in this case, I would take this car right away. Everything is exactly where you expect it to be. Congratulations to your designer. This is top notch work. Kindest regards from Germany! )
This rv is perhaps the best design I've seen in a class b. Innovative and clever use of space. I especially like the garage area, rear door/hatch and the washing machine integration. Thank you for an excellent video.
I've been watching van conversions all day and this is perhaps the most impressive. I think it's the only 4x4 I've seen so far, and it's definitely the only one with a washing machine. Love the winged garage door - including the shower enclosure. I thought I was sold on the idea of a dedicated rear bed (as opposed to convertible seating), because I suspect one would tire of setting it up every evening. But the two singles would work in a pinch, and converting to full-size seemed quick and easy. I even liked the position and size of the TV. The 2nd fridge that can serve as a freezer is a great addition. Great lighting throughout. Perhaps the only things I'd add would be a wooden rooftop deck (perhaps fold out to maximize space) and two hammock chairs suspended from the roof racks. Both of those options I've seen on the Van Life Builds channel. One of their conversions also had dual folding electric bikes secured in the garage, which I really liked as well.
I've seen many vans, and I must say it is definitely a great one. I love the garage. I'm a massage therapist and do outcalls, so having a washing machine for my dirt towels would be a god sent. The European and Asians are just better at designing small places. America is having to play catch up. However, I could never afford this one.
52 gallons is barely enough for bathing, toilet, drinking, cooking, rinsing, water for brushing/face washing for 1 person while boondocking out in the wilderness/desert. The washing machine y itself would go through 52 gallons in no time. I think it would only be useful connected to city water at an RV park. But usually, RV parks have washing machines available anyway. A luxury for sure but for me not a priority. The priority is getting out deep into nature which this rig is very capable of doing. I would love it, minus the washing machine. There are smaller more portable washing machines available that will suffice for small loads like hand towels, underwear.
Absolutely loved this one, the interior bathroom was a little underrated but I'm just nitpicking about that. If this has good insulation then it must be one of the best on the market.
This is by far one of the best van build designs i have ever seen. The rear door, and the added awning inclosure, the two seperate seatin areas, and so on. This layout is perfect for a family of 4 or just 2. Would love to see this van available in the states.
Having lived in either vans or narrowboats since 1989 I can confirm that a second solar voltaic panel would definitely be needed especially with a 3 KW inverter hammering the battery capacity.
@@MotorhomeCampervan he's right though my family had a canal boat for years and we had to get close to 1kw of solar to run the fridge and washing washing plus led lights...its ok during the summer when the sun is plentiful but in winter forget it. and we had much more battery power then this van currently has too.....you need 400 to 600 watts on the roof minimum
Excellent. May I suggest that this camper van’s next generation would have a roof hatch that opens from the inside onto a roof rack that can hold up two to four people. Must be a good platform for stargazing and a 360-degree view of the landscape. Congratulations on a work well done. Cheers!
It's 130,000 pounds for the base price. However I'm not British but in America the Winnebago Revel is not as good and much smaller and is nearly 200,000 USD. I did some math and when I added most of the upgrades it's nearly the same price as the revel but way bigger and more luxurious.
Nice vid, but still nobody talking about the brand of said washing machine 🤦♀️. Wait, I saw it here on YT channel: Ryan and Sophie Sailing Installing a WASHING MACHINE in our 40ft sailboat #87 I think it is a Daewoo but it's worth checking out Sophie's review.
Another good review Peter, of a very good and well designed van. If I won the lottery and money was no object, I would buy this van and tour the world in it as it seems capable enough. Brilliantly done!
Beautiful😀 Best build I've seen so far - it was only a matter of time till those stupid doors in the back were converted to a tail gate or lift gate assembly... I would get rid of the side slider too and go for a 30" aircraft style entry door... I would up grade the electrical system a bit more - I would go 600 amp hours and at least 350 watts of solar on the roof... Also, either a second alternator or a B2B so you can draw 30 amps - at least off the alternator to your house batteries... Mercedes is the premier chassis and will continue to be going forward...
I definitely agree with the electrical systems since I feel like there should be more batteries and a better inverter. I also would like it if most of the systems were combined into one digital system. I feel like the sliding door is great and definitely dont need to be changed but this is just an opinion.
Isn't it amazing, when you actually get paid to do a job that you truly love. Mine was the best and most humbling of all, it was having the privilege getting to know and transporting my clients to their respective day centres and for me me it's the only job I've ever had that I would've done free if I could've afforded it. Even when I was away on holiday I left my mobile so the relief driver could phone me if they got lost, they were then and remain now my best friends.
Agreed that bathroom could have better functionally and esthetically. May not be my favourite color overall but how awesome is this functionally. Definitely one of the best ever created so far for this size. Wonder how much is it..
+1. .. Man,, that rig rivals the custom Sprinters from Advanced RV in Ohio, USA. .. Think there's a new Gold Standard ... The rear Dutch door/upper window is spectacular and innovative... A Game Changer?
This camper van is stunning! Love the washing machine and would like to see how it works. It's a beauty and the beast - a beast from the outside, a beauty in the inside. I would love to own one and live in it full time - fed up with paying rent, who isn't? Thanks very much for a great review and for going through everything in detail. Now fingers crossed my lotto numbers come up.
To be honest.... If you're really using the 4x4 you'll never park in a place where you have the space to take that out. Only useful if you go from camping to camping.... So basically that's the most useless thing I've ever seen
@@andrewkitchenuk guess so... Still feels like a waste of money. I have a regular camper, not 4x4, and still haven't used that. But again I never go to places where I'm allowed to. I just assumed someone investing that amount of money on a 4x4 would be even less in those type of places
@@3CulosGordos The things like tent and outside shower curtain are all options if you want it. Personally I'm not the type of people who shower outside. My dog, maybe but not me. Also the van base price for the rebellion 4 is like 130,000 pounds. It's definitely reasonable since this is more of an overlanding vehicle than an average class b.
This van is certainly a masterpiece. I absolutely love it but I would change out and upgrade some stuff. I don't feel like there is enough batteries for this van. Also I think they should also upgrade the inverter to a higher amp. I also think that the roof should be more flat and have the roof racks replaced by the 2022 revel kind where there could be more storage. It would be nice if most of the systems were integrated into one digital system where you can control the van with. The garage looks too small to fit my mountain bike so I would remove the outside shower holder and raise the bed so there's more storage in the garage. It can also have a front bumper with a winch and a reenforced rear bumper so the van does not get as damaged if you get hit. I think those were the most important ones that I think should be upgraded and I hope the next version will have some of these stuff. However it's still a great van. These are just minor issues that I think it has but overall still probably the most unique van on the market. Can't wait for the new model.
That back door/ shower room is pretty good but I don't know how useful that tent attached to the side is. Seems like a lot of polava if you want to go anywhere. I also prefer a fixed bed.
Personally, I wouldn't have the safari room on the side but others will want the extra space. If you prefer, you could always leave the rear as a bedroom - either singles or a double
Is the tire enough to withstand all the loads from the van/equipment? looks a bit small compared to the van and all. I have not much knowledge about tires so genuinely asking
What brand are the windows? I've been trying hard to find out but there's nothing on their website. If you guys don't know, I guess I'll call them to ask
Lovely van, but internally it looks a little hemmed-in and lacking in floorspace for an expedition vehicle which would spend a lot of its time off-grid. I prefer the simplicity of the Murvi Morocco/Morello/Pimento layout, but obviously that's just for 2 people and their dog. The Murvi layout seems more spacious for expedition useage, where you need a lot of elbow room inside for getting changed out of outside clobber; angling gear, wetsuits etc. in the warm and dry. At 6' 4" I find most van conversions a liitle tight on space, but they are prefereable for weekend jaunts around the UK than coachbuilts. Maximising the internal space is more important to me but many converters have gone with the up-front lounging/dining layout, so it must be popular. I would still love to give this one a try because it looks so complete as an all-rounder and if you can afford one, it would probably be something you'd keep for many, many years or even forever.
Many impressive elements. But it does seem cramped and claustrophobic. A lighter decor and color scheme would have been more airy. Long wheel base vans should be dual rear wheel for stability and true offroading. Making that bed day in day out would be too much. I still say a fixed bed is the way to go. I love that integrated gas/induction hob/stove top, you don’t see many of those. No mention of air conditioning. I don’t fancy traveling in the summer on just fans. But I suppose the UK travelers don’t need to worry as much about summer heat. Would have preferred to see an outward folding shower door for increased elbow room. That indoor shower looks super cramped. Love that coffee maker nook. All in all some very impressive design elements that can be adapted and perfected.
With such a long van I would have liked to see a better solution for the 3rd and 4th bed, especially the last one. couldn't imagine sleeping on that for a longer period of time. Otherwise looks great.
RP is getting huge interest at the NEC caravan and motorhome show this week. Those delivery dates are going to get longer... New 4x4 system on the Sprinter sounds exciting, though
Oh dear what were they thinking when it came to having an out side shower and as for the front beds ~ well a complete after thought. Looks nice on the outside, however the designers have obviously never done much off grid camping. For an outlay of 135k this is a hefty price to pay for something which should have offered so much more...
Base price £109.995 + £10,500 (sliding bathroom!) Then add sat dish auto (3,295) and £5250 self levelling off road pack...£2585 alloys....and so on....but if you have the money? This looks amazing!!!! Prices from their downloadable price list !
Hi, be careful what you wish for! We ordered a rebellion 2 in july2021 and paid £25000 deposit, which helped them survive Covid lockdown etc.When the Sprinter arrived from Germany we were so excited until they cancelled our order! Apparently they took exception to me questioning a £19000 uplift in price, despite my agreeing to discussing a new price. We thought we had a signed contract! Don’t think we were the only ones. New clients = higher price!
only if we could have that in the US, I would buy it right away I like the storyteller beast, but I like this better (upgrading lithium batteries to at least 800 wh)
@@neilkite 200000+ USD is for all the upgrades. The base price I'm pretty sure is around 130,000 pounds. For the rebellion 4. I still think this is definitely worth it because the Winnebago Revel and the storyteller beast is near 200,000 USD and it's about the price of a fully upgraded rebellion. Definitely worth buying rebellion.
Worked miracles this company for a small place and only a hand full of us creating them but you are right only the rich and mostly retired elderly buy these vans but like any business they aren't in it to lose money. purely bespoke and 90% hand made with trade mark parts tonnes of man hours go into making parts for these vans was a pleasure working for em.
It an amazing van. Sorry about the but is there anyway they could have just had an electric drop down double bed slung over the drivers cab. Sleeping front to back possibly. The 3rd and 4th sleeping solution is a bollocks. You could even have the option of a pop up sleeping accommodation with a foley sprung mattress, like Adria have in their vans. But and amazing camper van none the less.
Hmmm cassette toilet and lpg? Sorry not a serious expedition vehicle then. As said in a previous vid, that space could have been better utilised for additional lithium batteries to power an induction cooktop.
Mercedes do a suspension upgrade kit for this van. with much higher clearance then already fitted plus there is a wheel arch modification too that allows much bigger wheels and tyres for much better off-road capability
How much do you think the push to renewable energy will affect the motorhome market in the next 10 years? Just afraid diesel will be pressured more by the uk gov through carbon taxes or such.
There will be a lot of petrol and diesel vehicles on the road for a long time yet. I think current estimates are that only half the cars on the road will be electric by 2035. By that time you could have had a lot of trips in your diesel motorhome...
@@peterv3642 yes but how much road taxes will you be paying it allready goinging up . im paying over 500 ponds now for mercedes ml diesel, this is how the goverment is doing it now
A stunning build! If only they can do something better for the forward bunks. It would also be nice to see MB producing a wide body sprinter so there could be better distributions in van builds... like having the bath at the rear alongside the bed.
You'd need to speak to RP Motorhomes. I think you'd be looking at £180k to £200k but their order book is currently full and the next batch of orders will be for 2025 delivery.

Tell no lies!!!
Tanks.good
Did u buy one?
Gosh, how big was the van you were looking in? 😂
Gotta make it bullet proof if not fully armoured for the upcoming Apocalypse . A turret with a machine gun up top would also come in handy .
😜👌
😂😂 or a linex coating idk makes me feel even more comfy in insane conditions whatcha say
Man, y'all across that Pond, sure have our US manufacturers/builders outclassed by miles. Drooling over this one!!
You're not the only one. We love it, too
Best van conversation on the market, what a beast
Many things stand out in this 4x4 van. By far the coolest is the back lift up window and garage door.
Without insect screens, you must be either blind or completely unaware of the extreme annoyance of mosquitos.
I love this because you showed we can attach some tents in the awning and have an alternative outside shower.
Wow, I’ve never seen something so gorgeous.. I had watch this twice.. now this is a camper van 🚐👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

I need two of these in my life...NOW!! Amazing design and a washer??? WOW!!!!
Amazing conversion! State of the art!
Luxury indeed. My favourite part is the size of the main bed and all the ventilation around it
Certainly one of the best, if not the best, van conversions I have seen. Very well thought out and appointed.

This is by far the best camper van ever. There is nothing you would need as it has everything.
What about space?
Absolutely ingenious design! It’s a first in the RV industry and truly is a versatile expedition vehicle. This Sprinter conversion is magnificent.
Having lived in either vans or narrowboats since 1989 I can confirm that a second solar voltaic panel would definitely be needed especially with a 3 KW inverter hammering the battery capacity.
Remember that you've got 400Ah of lithium batteries here, though

Nice , but i feel a pop top double bed would be a better choice to allow more room !! and this allows the dinning social area to remain set up
Maybe for some buyers, but a pop-top can be cold in winter

This build is proper and thoughtfully executed. The seatbelt bed is clever. 16:44
Impressive - like the kitchen - like the sleeproom - don‘t see the need for the tent ….. but anyway: great Van - excellent!
The design is flawless.

The only thing I could pick fault was, there’s no microwave, apart from that a stunning van 👍
A microwave is possible, too!

But I suppose the UK travelers don’t need to worry as much about summer heat. Would have preferred to see an outward folding shower door for increased elbow room. That indoor shower looks super cramped. Love that coffee maker nook. All in all some very impressive design elements that can be adapted and perfected.
This van is amazing 🤩
Coming back here as soon as I win the lotto.
10kv litium ion and 6kv alternators plus if you can add 1kv a solar panel with will be perfect for this van
With such a long van I would have liked to see a better solution for the 3rd and 4th bed, especially the last one. couldn't imagine sleeping on that for a longer period of time. Otherwise looks great.
Maybe not a true 4 berth but a 2 berth. You don't want 4 people in that van that size anyway.
2022 slot already full 😢, waiting price for 2023 February slot for all new sprinter 2023.
RP is getting huge interest at the NEC caravan and motorhome show this week. Those delivery dates are going to get longer... New 4x4 system on the Sprinter sounds exciting, though
Definitely want one! Did I miss the price? 200 000 Euro?
That's a really nice van.
Totally agree. It's fabulous
I wonder if there is a manufacturer in Australia that makes something on this standard...
Just met a guy who travelled from Australia to the motorhome show in the UK to order his RP 'van!
Amazing built, beautiful, wow!
Very nice Vehicle. How much load can it carry. Can it carry 6 people to travel with?
Payload is around 600kg, depending on spec. Max 4 travel seats
Hi can you the website link from this motorhome in the description down below please?

Oh dear what were they thinking when it came to having an out side shower and as for the front beds ~ well a complete after thought. Looks nice on the outside, however the designers have obviously never done much off grid camping. For an outlay of 135k this is a hefty price to pay for something which should have offered so much more...
Exactly what I thought.
Best intro ever ‼️
Really perfect. Best of I have ever seen.
Base price £109.995 + £10,500 (sliding bathroom!) Then add sat dish auto (3,295) and £5250 self levelling off road pack...£2585 alloys....and so on....but if you have the money? This looks amazing!!!! Prices from their downloadable price list !
Love one of these to use at weekends...!
What’s a sliding bathroom?
Hi, be careful what you wish for! We ordered a rebellion 2 in july2021 and paid £25000 deposit, which helped them survive Covid lockdown etc.When the Sprinter arrived from Germany we were so excited until they cancelled our order! Apparently they took exception to me questioning a £19000 uplift in price, despite my agreeing to discussing a new price. We thought we had a signed contract! Don’t think we were the only ones. New clients = higher price!
Prices of all components have risen so fast that I doubt that manufacturers like RP could hold prices at pre-Covid levels and stay in business
What a fantastic camper it’s got everything!😁👍
only if we could have that in the US, I would buy it right away
I like the storyteller beast, but I like this better (upgrading lithium batteries to at least 800 wh)
£160000.00 that's a lot of cash! over 210 thousand dollars! Lottery win required
@@neilkite 200000+ USD is for all the upgrades. The base price I'm pretty sure is around 130,000 pounds. For the rebellion 4. I still think this is definitely worth it because the Winnebago Revel and the storyteller beast is near 200,000 USD and it's about the price of a fully upgraded rebellion. Definitely worth buying rebellion.
Worked miracles this company for a small place and only a hand full of us creating them but you are right only the rich and mostly retired elderly buy these vans but like any business they aren't in it to lose money.
purely bespoke and 90% hand made with trade mark parts tonnes of man hours go into making parts for these vans was a pleasure working for em.
That's great to hear. Always seem to be a really nice firm
How much does a contraption like this cost? Would be perfect for me and my kids
Reckon on £200k with all the kit
Could you please send me the link where that wachine machine is? it´s awesome!! i want it
Sorry, you'd have to ask RP Motorhomes
Superb van but so little storage inside for what is supposed to be a long duration vehicle ???
It's still only a 7m panel van, so I don't think storage is lacking - after all, there's that huge garage
It an amazing van. Sorry about the but is there anyway they could have just had an electric drop down double bed slung over the drivers cab. Sleeping front to back possibly. The 3rd and 4th sleeping solution is a bollocks. You could even have the option of a pop up sleeping accommodation with a foley sprung mattress, like Adria have in their vans. But and amazing camper van none the less.
I'm sure RP could do a pop-top but then you'd be sleeping in an uninsulated space. There's always a compromise!
Hmmm cassette toilet and lpg? Sorry not a serious expedition vehicle then. As said in a previous vid, that space could have been better utilised for additional lithium batteries to power an induction cooktop.
Induction hob is an option, as is a composting loo
Mercedes do a suspension upgrade kit for this van. with much higher clearance then already fitted plus there is a wheel arch modification too that allows much bigger wheels and tyres for much better off-road capability
How much do you think the push to renewable energy will affect the motorhome market in the next 10 years?
Just afraid diesel will be pressured more by the uk gov through carbon taxes or such.
There will be a lot of petrol and diesel vehicles on the road for a long time yet. I think current estimates are that only half the cars on the road will be electric by 2035. By that time you could have had a lot of trips in your diesel motorhome...
@@peterv3642 yes but how much road taxes will you be paying it allready goinging up . im paying over 500 ponds now for mercedes ml diesel, this is how the goverment is doing it now
A stunning build! If only they can do something better for the forward bunks.
It would also be nice to see MB producing a wide body sprinter so there could be better distributions in van builds... like having the bath at the rear alongside the bed.
Just get Atego chassis if you want that much room. More load capacity too.
Great, fantastic actually.. but the shower is not a really a shower.. not in the UK at least!
You mean the outside one? That's maybe for a quick hose off after a day on the beach or mountain biking. You can shower inside too
@@MotorhomeCampervan I see! Thanks for the clarification, makes a big difference. Do you have these in the UK?
For this E-X-A-C-T van in this video; with nothing more and nothing less than just shown, how much does it cost?
You'd need to speak to RP Motorhomes. I think you'd be looking at £180k to £200k but their order book is currently full and the next batch of orders will be for 2025 delivery.
