Living in an Autosleeper Kingham for a month. Any good? Part 1 HD 1080p

In this video we start our European tour in the 2021 Autosleeper Kingham. We start to explore what it is like being in a relatively compact van for longer than we've used it before. This is the first part of a few!

Nice to see you back, it seems like it's been a while since I last watched one of your videos.
This could be a great little series and van life content certainly seems very popular on RUclips these days.
Interesting to hear of your experience of driving habits on the continent, a few years ago when I drove the Mégane coupe through northern France and into Belgium I found the standard of driving etiquette to be very good and the only vehicle being driven badly was another car from the UK when heading back home.

Thanks Mark, it has been quite a while since I put a film out. I think there will be 5 parts or maybe 6 in total. I’ve got all the footage downloaded from the camera and now need to do the editing. Plan will be to release a part a week for the next few weeks 😀. Not part of any film, the worst part of the whole journey was Folkestone to home which took 8 hours to do 270 miles ☹️

We've recently got back from a trip route Europe. As we're not as lucky as you guys to have retired, we only had two weeks. We managed about 3000 miles and got as far as Venice (been to many of the areas you've mentioned in your description).
Our coachbuilt (Knaus) has some advantages, such as the garage for the electric mountain bikes. Eventually I'd like to take the 2cv on a trailer . . .

Picking up a 218 Kingham this week. Thanks for all the videos as they helped us decide the Kingham was the layout we wanted. The video with the dogs was really helpful. If you can make it work with two greyhounds I think two Cocker Spaniels will be no problem! Just pulling together a small tool kit including a selection of standard blade fuses.

Thanks for watching them, I’m really glad it was helpful. I hope you enjoy the new van as much as we enjoy ours!

Loving the Videos. We are narrowing down our camper van list, and your videos are so informative about the Kingham. I cannot wait to see how it turns out on this European trip. I was wondering if you knew the internal width of the bathroom. We don’t have a dealership for autosleeper nearby that has stock of a kingham this year, and I just wanted to get an idea of how much room I would have. If you know that would be great 😃😃. Can’t wait for the next Video.

Thanks for the kind comments, much appreciated! The internal dimensions of the bathroom are
Height 186 cm throughout the bathroom
Max length 110 cm (the tambour door rounds off one end)
Shoulder room when stood for a pee 74 cm
At sink end, 61 cm wide
Max floor width (in front of toilet) 57cm
Min floor width 36 cm (in front of sink)
Hope this helps, it’s certainly not the biggest bathroom but it’s fine in practice.

Thanks for that. That information is really handy and definitely makes it a top contender 😃. I can’t wait to hear about this adventure and how it turns out.
