Glad it’s not just us that bangs our heads 😂😂😂😂. We really enjoyed that review , that van would be on our list to if we ever win the lottery.😂 . Thanks and well done a great review H and M
Thank you for watching…we are having the coldest, wettest and cloudiest summer EVER. This was the one day of the year the sun came out 🤷🏼♀️😂 The humidity is a killer and 44 is crazy. I have been to Calgary in July and the UV was very strong. Have a great weekend 😊👍
Hi guys,what a beast that is and with a hefty price tag too,hubby won a £5 on the lottery so our savings pot is slowly growing lol 😂😂😂😂 Have a great weekend,and as always,see you in the next one xx
😂😂From small acorns come…huge savings… thanks for watching. We are away at the coast with my Dad, currently raining but I have had an ice cream. Enjoy your weekend 😊
Nice vlog. Nice motorhome Just need the money….. agree the shower is looking cheap with the water feed and the compromise for me, sort of, would be the oven. That said, there is enough room for a decent air fryer in the kitchen or if the weather is good cook outside. All the best.
Another great professional review by you both🎉 Lovely looking machine 😍 love my tag kontiki, hay karina maybe they'll ask you to use it for 6 months to give an honest review 😮😮😮. Beautiful
Thank you for watching and I am glad you are loving your Kontiki 🤩😊 you only really find out if you have the right Motorhome after you’ve bought it.. Have a lovely weekend 😊
Hi we have the 780 sl The front bed isn’t underpowered my granddaughter was lied down and I lifted it up while she was on lol The only big problem is the front side cab blinds keep falling down so we are hoping these are being replaced with something better than a plastic clip , the shower hose doesn’t bother me I think in the long run it’s better and won’t leak , on our next trip I’ll put a metal one on and see if the reason is due to rattling , I think there right because the back plate is metal
The reason that the hose for the shower is the grey rubber hose is because it makes less rattle noises when driving compared to the hose with the metal covering. So it’s a logical choice by Adria.
Thank you for watching, I have had 3 Adria motorhomes with metal hoses and never heard them rattle so I am not sure that is the reasoning. If I had to put a reason on it I would say that the metal hoses have been known to leak over time. But on a Motohrome of this value I would have preferred a more premium solution. Have a good weekend and thank you for adding your comment about the shower hose. 😊 I will ask Adria Mobil when I am in Germany in August and find out.
Great indepth review, but shame you didn't demo the drop down bed, as we have an Adria Matrix 600SL and find the motor a little under powered with bedding fitted 🤷♂️ would have liked to see it upgraded now ! Still a quality bus compared to Swift etc, least they 100% more reliable build quality, hope you finding the same on your's 👌 Sam Cannock Staffs.
Thank you for watching, we found the bed on the 520ST Adria was pretty good, but if I remember we did remove the bedding..we haven’t used our Matrix drop down bed so cannot update you on that. The drop down beds do seem to lack power, I agree with you. Adria are excellent motorhomes, they are always near the top of my list. Enjoy your motorhome! 😊
Thanks for watching, it comes down to the capacity of the hot water tank and how much you mix the hot with cold. The boiler will usually have a 20 litre capacity, van conversions it’s often 10 litres. If you put the hot water on to boost it heats quick and will be best for showering. I shower in my motorhome and don’t turn it on and off but I don’t wash my hair due to it being long. The water will last for one good shower and quickly reheat for another. You can turn it on and off if you want to get two showers out of one tank of hot water. If you are a caravanners you would be more likely to turn the shower off between lathering etc as you are reliant on a 40 litre aqua roll which you have to go refill. A Motorhome, certainly like this motorhome, has a large onboard cold water tank. I hope that helps. 😊
I'm afraid, for a quality 9 metre motorhome, built on an Alko chassis, the water tank capacity is really small. There's also pitifully little in-floor storage. Good looking, but not up to scratch for this price point.
Absolutely fab-BUT at the price point and given the hassle of driving it,plus the depreciation -stay in a nice Hotel v a field somewhere-even though its only a small hike to well -where ever. I guess if you won the Lottery you could buy one-but why bother?
Thank you for watching 😂 personally I really enjoy motorhome driving and I don’t think I would be rushing to stay in a field. 😂 There are actually some really nice caravan sites with great facilities..but it isn’t for everyone..and at least at a hotel you aren’t emptying your own toilet. Great comment… thanks 😂😊👍
Thank you for watching..possibly due to the added cost or that some buyers don’t want Lithium. I agree that an optional Lithium battery would be a good option on the list for those that do, as opposed to an aftermarket choice. Good suggestion.. 👍
That's not even a bus...! Just the Merc combi chassis that on its own cost not more than 30k£ And some very very expensive plywood on top of it! I watched this on a phone, and still could see the appalling seams between the sink top and the side board in the toilet.. Every face wash will splash water in between.. in a few years that will be either rotten, or mold paradise! Or probably both 🙄
@@HereWeTow Nahh, were all our worst critics, I don't like looking at pictures of my self. But others say I look handsome, I just ignore them and look in the mirror 🪞, nahhhh. Lol
Thank you for watching, yes, quite common on the European caravans and motorhomes not to use a microwave. They usually fit them just for the UK market on some models. I miss a microwave in our Adria Motorhome. Have a great weekend 😊
What a dream! Thanks for showing it, a great video.
Thank you for watching 😊
I think that’s the most stunning motorhome kitchen I’ve ever seen! 😮❤ Loved seeing this, thank you 😊
Thank you for watching..I do like a nice Motorhome kitchen 😊
Informative review. Impressed by the size of the shower.

I feel for you, 27C here in Ontario Canada.
Last few weeks it was as hot as 44c with humidity😮.
Great video, nice motorhome.

@@HereWeTow Maybe I should move there, hate the heat, love the spring and fall temps.
I don’t think I could survive a Canadian winter 😂

If you had a full tank of water how much would you have left after a shower iv herd you need to keep turning water of during shower is this right

Very very nice but serious money

Niesmann bischoff arto has 300 litre fresh water and 200 litre grey waste.

I can't believe adria and carthago dont offer a lithium battery pack.
Its 2025 nearly 🙄🙈
