Hi Karina and Jules, after watching your vid on your first Isonzo it convinced us to buy the same model on a private sale. I was a bit concerned at first on the weight and if my galaxy would be up to the job. Making sure i had the nose weight right and sensibly loaded it towed a dream and found it solid to tow, the single axle is no issue at all and no need for ATC. The only niggles i have is as you mentioned a flap to give extra work space would be good. The wash room door tends to be a bit noisy opening so job keeping quiet when the odd beer or two i have takes effect in the night. (i suppose lay off the beer is the answer) . Van is really cosy but on the odd time the heating kicked in in the night , the pipes running under the bottom of the bedhead tend to give off a lot of heat .Looking at your review on the new model i can see me being tempted if its on display at the C&M show in October. All in all we have found the Isonzo to be a superb van (so could well be tempted on the new model) ,We have had loads of good comments on site . great layout quality interior and bigger fridge than at home. bed really comfy, I sleep better in the van than at home . Really glad i found your blogs last year that persuaded us to buy. Regards Ron and Pauline
Hi Ron and Pauline, I am absolutely delighted to hear you are enjoying your Isonzo. We loved ours and it would still be our top pick. I love your comment about the noisey door 😂 Enjoy having a look if you do visit the October show.. looking is always dangerous. Enjoy your towing and travels 😊 Karina and Jules
Great review but i do prefer the old Isonzo , which leads onto , will you be matching this up with your new car?, there is a big void on you tube at the moment of Here We Tow, Tin to Tum, and all the things that we enjoy from you both .take care Tony and Cas xx
Oh thanks Tony..no plans for a caravan right now, they are so expensive and demand is mad. Maybe we can reconsider next year as we are missing our touring. We loved our Isonzo..I preferred our interior to this. Take care and thank you for watching 😊 Karina
Thanks for a very comprehensive review!! I do like these vans, different! Are you tempted?! Storage is excellent! I like the bathroom sink but would prefer it to be deeper. Shower is good too! I approve! Take care xx
A nice van however I do not like the unnecessary looking wall at left of bathroom basin. However the fridge freezer next to the kitchen wash basin is placed well. Perhaps a single gas burner hob and a movable induction cook top or single electric job would serve better then the three gas burners.
HI Karina , I agree with you re the grey felt boxes, what point are they , decorative and thats all .and as you say in the way for the sink .Same for the flap too, the kitchen seems far too small, and the company have opted for a combined sink and cooked hob.Im not keen on that or the glass that goes over it ,. I do like the way the upper units look sculptural against the wood decor . I do like the height and size of the fridge freezer .and where its situated.I thought you might put atop the fridge in that little space , clingfilm, foils etc I cant stand the fabric screens , why cant they use a door ?
Good morning..yes the kitchen is small, which is a European trait as the dont tend to cook much inside, but this is for the UK market after all. I love the tower fridge freezer, it has good capacity. I hope you are keeping cool and staying well, Karina 😊
Thanks Sinead, depends on how many are going to be sleeping in it and they layout you like. Some of the Bailey Phoenix or Swift Sprite range may be suitable for you. Elddis have plenty to choose from too. 😊 Karina
@@HereWeTow perfect thanks…. Will have to have a look. We have been tent campers for over 15 years and now making the switch to a van. Will be 4 of us (2 adults and 2 kiddos). Hadn’t thought we were getting a van before we bought new car and didn’t look at towing capacity…
Thank you..I am hoping to get some smaller ones soon..dealer stock has been a bit of an issue as I wanted to do some more budget friendly stuff too. Have a great weekend 😊 Karina
Stunning looking caravan and I do like the interior but not sure about the window against the headboard in the bedroom and I think the washroom could have been bigger saying they have made the caravan longer, overall it’s a 👍 from me. If I knew you were coming I’d baked a cake 🍰😉😃
Thank you Geoff..yes, I think some people would find the bathroom a compromise for what is one of the largest caravans on the UK market. Have a lovely weekend.. Karina 😊
They are not lined or one piece like some of the UK ones but I have not seen one leak through the panels due to the way they are assembled and sealed. Ive had three Adrias and always used the showers. Thank you for watching 😊 Karina
Why does the toilet water filler still have its own tank and not run of the caravan onboard water system like most other modern caravans do but a brilliant caravan overall great review of the new caravan
Several manufacturers still do this, generally Elddis has moved to a flush from the water system. The benefit of the separate flush is you can still add toilet flush if you like and you can travel with some water in the flush and have a working toilet whilst on the road. Thank you for watching, Karina 😊
We love our Isonzo but what really bugs me is the cheap roller blind window shades. For a superior quality caravan these really make it look cheap. I wish they did an upgrade pack to change these…
I miss our Isonzo. It was the start of our caravan and motorhome journey..I would have a caravan again certainly and I would probably still go for an 8ft wide. Like many people, it’s a case of seeing how things go financially as we head towards 2023. Have a lovely weekend 😊 Karina
Thanks for watching.. people often say its a bit Ikea.. its the Adria style but the build quality is excellent. Have a great weekend and enjoy the weather 😊 Karina

@@HereWeTow thanks Karina, tried giving up the beers, how long do you reckon that lasted 😏
😂 Probably until lunchtime…🤷🏼♀️😂

Love it , great video !
Bring somes in canada plz.
Here caravans look like the 80's
Thanks for watching in Canada 🇨🇦

Thank you for watching Anne..we loved our Isonzo, right now we couldn’t afford a new caravan especially with the price hikes. Have a great weekend 😊

Great review. We have this precise model and agree re the lack of worktop space - other than that it’s great!🙂
Thanks for watching Bill..glad to hear you love yours..happy touring 😊 Karina

Great review….any recommendations for a van.. my max towing is 1,500kg
Thanks Sinead, depends on how many are going to be sleeping in it and they layout you like. Some of the Bailey Phoenix or Swift Sprite range may be suitable for you. Elddis have plenty to choose from too. 😊 Karina

There is lots to choose from still..if you need any advice email me at herewetow@yahoo.com 😊
Love your really clear and thorough reviews. Keep them coming. Super looking van but too big for us. Any chance of doing some much smaller vans.
Thank you..I am hoping to get some smaller ones soon..dealer stock has been a bit of an issue as I wanted to do some more budget friendly stuff too. Have a great weekend 😊 Karina

If only my tow car could pull it I would be down tomorrow placing an order. Maybe a trip to SSANGYONG FIRST 😁😁 x
😂👍 I must say.. the Ssangyong Rexton is still the best value large SUV. I wouldn’t hesitate to have another. Have a great weekend.. Karina
Have they finally lined the shower?
They are not lined or one piece like some of the UK ones but I have not seen one leak through the panels due to the way they are assembled and sealed. Ive had three Adrias and always used the showers. Thank you for watching 😊 Karina

I agree… we didnt like ours either 👍
Nice review but still prefer the motorhome.
Thank you for watching.. have a lovely weekend 😊 Karina
Does this make you want another Adria karina ? … Dave.
I miss our Isonzo. It was the start of our caravan and motorhome journey..I would have a caravan again certainly and I would probably still go for an 8ft wide. Like many people, it’s a case of seeing how things go financially as we head towards 2023. Have a lovely weekend 😊 Karina
@@HereWeTow and you two. 👍
Looks like it was made by B&Q IMO.
People often go for Ikea with Adria.. thank you for watching 😊 Karina
Come on Adria fully line the shower, relying on silicone sealant 🥴 otherwise a stunning van.
Thanks Colin..have a lovely weekend 😊
Looks extremely basic and un-finished
Thanks for watching.. people often say its a bit Ikea.. its the Adria style but the build quality is excellent. Have a great weekend and enjoy the weather 😊 Karina
@@HereWeTow thank you, we’re in Looe in our 880 we’ve just bought
That is great to hear.. happy touring 😊
