    Evening all,adore this channel👍,
    After the sudden passing of my husband, and 40yrs plus of camping in every style x length of van ,lastly owning a lovely tag axle island bed kon tki,...
    I decided to by new the r10 solo in white ,identical to your vlog.
    I was determined to continue camping and used said van every weekend ,the longest being 2weeks in winter.
    The diesel heater was a boon ,never cold ,but kept roof shut at night .
    With pop down combination TV, plug in cold box, a loo,I could even strip wash if needed .
    Cooking was a breeze ,I had every xtra i could on the van and lived every moment .
    The nemo was quick,responsive, great on fuel,and gave the ahh factor when seen.
    Due to illness sadly after 3yrs I swapped for a second hand auto sleeper mezan, again a cracking wee van.
    I had to give up driving due to medical issues ,miss camping so much .
    But watching your great channel keeps me up to date.
    I haghly recommend the R10,it's what's written on the tin ,a great SOLO all rounder .
    Safe driving to all on here 👍

      Hello there Bridget
      I am looking at getting a diesel heater for my R10 can you tell me where is it located in the van, what type is it and who fitted it. I know I ask a lot of questions but, I just want to make sure I am doing the right thing.

    • @lisaberrill703
      @lisaberrill703 Год назад

      Thanks for this info, I love these little vans. Glad to hear you had success with one. Sorry to hear you can no longer camp. Have you tried renting a glamping pod? They have an electric socket so you could plug an air bed in. Or even a static caravan holiday 😊

  • @AnneRogersPhoto
    @AnneRogersPhoto 3 года назад +3

    My little black R10 was my first campervan and I made lots of great memories camping with it over the 18 months or so I had it for. Yes, they're small but they're very well thought out and built. A great little van and nice to see this and bring back happy memories.

  • @maxinesmyth3183
    @maxinesmyth3183 3 года назад +7

    Hello there
    I watched the video and the guy said “not much storage “ thing is he was sitting on it, if he had lifted the top of the seat he was sitting on there is big storage underneath. However, if you install diesel heating as in the blue one some of that room would be taken up with the storage heater but still good amount of storage. The build quality of this van is second to none, the units and materials used are quality and everything fitted by professionals. Used as an everyday vehicle, a day van and or holidays from overnight to how ever long………..you just need the right accessories for your situation, for example a drive away awning for longer stays. Anyway the reason I know this is because I own one so don’t listen to people who don’t own one but make assumptions about them. You WILL NOT find a better solo van.

    I used to have a Volvo 245 estate which had enough room for the TWO of us to sleep side by side. With the rear tailgate up and a canvas awning to provide the catering and toiletting facilities, it was perfect.

  • @skwatson2617
    @skwatson2617 3 года назад +5

    As a singleton, I find it frustrating there aren’t more vehicles like this that cater to solo drivers on a budget. Thanks for your reviews and helping folk like myself get some insight from the comfort of home. You didn’t mention pricing but I can guess.

  • @tonysutton6559
    @tonysutton6559 3 года назад +7

    Kev came up with a good idea. I could have used something like that when I was working away from home for 3 or 4 nights a week. Park it up in the corner of the office car park, breakfast and lunch in the works canteen and kip in the van after a pub meal in the evening.

    @matthewpengelly761 3 года назад +4

    Nice!! I prefer the blue one. The diesel heater would allow me to travel around the Scottish Highlands in the winter months! It's a perfect camper for me as i'm alone anyhow!! Although i did like the slightly larger Mezan in case i take a trip with company!!

  • @apkelly01
    @apkelly01 3 года назад

    I'd a 5 berth Ducato motorhome but it's dead in the water with no engine now....can't get an engine for it..... Anyway, I used it for work, so needed something ASAP to replace it. I didn't fancy another motorhome after being ket down so badly, so I bought a Peugeot Rifter. It's a 5 seater most of the time, but for work, I flatten the seats and turn it into a mini camper. My roof doesn't pop, but that's not a problem. I've a bed, toilet, cooking equipment, portable shower, portable power with solar charging, 12v compressor cooler/freezer and I'll be getting a TV for it. I black out the windows and can stealth camp in the work car park. It goes at motorway speeds and I love it. The only thing I can't do is stand up straight, but you're either sitting or lying, so it's not a problem. Then for normal camping, I've an awning and portable kitchen. It also means I only have to worry about 1 vehicle as with the motorhome I'd to tax/insure 2 vehicles. 😁

    Happy birthday Kev! Another entertaining video and two interesting little vans. TBH I wouldn't mind one as a single / dual purpose vehicle (everyday, camping, fishing). Blown air heating would be a must at my age. The mystery tray is actually a draining board which sits on top of the cooker 😉

    I have a Citroen Berlingo motor caravan converted by Middlesex Motorcaravans.
    It is two berth. We mostly use it as a day van, but is fully equipped for an overnight stay. We also have attachable external drive away awning, on board toilet and separate portable fridge we can load if we need to.
    We can park in anywhere. It is small than most SUV’s and only slightly higher.

    Two fabulous compact campervans. Fitted out really well, great use of space. Kev hit the nail on the head when he said ideal for fishing but has a multitude of uses. Ideal working away or One man & his dog or one woman & her dog, or even at a push could accommodate two? 👍 From me. Thanks Jason & Kevin. Have a great birthday keV 🎉🥞🎂🍺🍻🥂🍹🍽️

  • @stewedfishproductions7959
    @stewedfishproductions7959 3 года назад

    I think the weight difference includes (as well as the negligible addition of the heater unit), all of that 'kit' (bags, awning etc.), that you had to empty out of the van, before you could get in? Because they are supplying it and expect it to be carried, they have included it as a weight issue surely? Just a thought!

    Happy Birthday Kev. I presume the roof can collapse down for driving? Does it have a vent in the roof with a fan for the cooking? Brilliant that it has a porta-potty! Once you get past a certain age the chances of needing a loo quickly start going up.

      I doubt that as the weight difference is 550kg....I think maybe they have read Net weight on one and Gross weight on the other, I find it hard to believe the blue one weighs in at 2300kg when my 4x4 van weighs 2100kg net.

      Actually there's a large storage area under the seat, and plenty of other space if you pack with planning, and are organised in how you use the van. I had my R10 for 18 months and toured around the UK in it. My longest trip away was 10 days.

      @@TheMotorhomeMan LOL! I lived in my Citroen Xsara Picasso for a number of months camping in the hills above the coast in the South of France.
      Once you take out the back 3 seats the platform is absolutely flat.
      I made a work surface on one side (£35) , inflatable bed £5, lay absolutely flat (I'm 6ft.) and very comfortable.
      Had a 5 gallon black bag shower £8 and a Thetford portapotti (£80). And a big roof box on roofbars (£10+£15!!) .and the bike hanging off the back thing (£20). In a warm climate there is not need (IMHO) for a pop-top. The Picasso cost me... £400 !
      Next time I do this I will make it a bit more polished and do this to a Renault Grand Espace.
      I will add a leisure battery, stick the bike on the roof next to a longer narrower roofbox, replace the inflatable bed with a Ikea Lycksele (single) and maybe get a £20 popup shower tent (a bit more civilisd thatn showering totally in the open!

    Only when you can have ducks, chickens, and rabbits for foods. And growing some vegetables then you can fully gear up for long trips without worrying about foods. Just take pets food with you.
