How opportune, we picked up our Pace model on 12th September, and we are just back from our inaugural trip. The build quality and attention to detail is top notch . A van built by campers for campers .
This was both entertaining and instructive. I really enjoyed this type of video done by Peter. Job well done.
Thank you!
I've had an Oslo for coming up to 6 months and they are easy vans to live with.
I'm pleased Peter picked up on the storage because the organisation of the storage is something that I noticed. Inside storage for inside stuff and the boot for the outside gear. Maybe this is one instance where Scot and Jane's own camping experience experience has helped.
I agree - The fact that Scot and Jane really use their 'vans really shows in a lot of details
Had an Oslo for nearly two years now. After experiencing both Burstner and Auro-trail vans previously, Consort are in a different league in terms of build quality and customer service. Loved the video👍
Glad you enjoyed it - and that you love your 'van
We've had a Reef since Jan 2024, fantastic build quality and the rear boot storage is very useful.
It's always great to see how the vans are converted & assembled. These Consort vans appear to be very well converted & constructed & I was impressed with the direct hotline for troubleshooting, reassurance goes along way to customer satisfaction as so often when there's an issue or a problem, ringing up the dealership only to be told we can get you in in three months just to have a look to find out whats wrong? Then the ordering of the parts as necessary & then another three month wait until the fault can be rectified all gets a bit tedious. The Oslo model shown at the end looked great but I think a brief look at all the aspects wouldve Been helpful ie kitchen, cab & washroom. Apologies for going on a bit.
We hope to follow this video with one covering the range of 'vans in the future
Those vans look incredible. I would have liked to see the bathroom though because I don't like shower curtains.
The 6 metre vans have flip up sinks ,which gives more space. There is a shower curtain but only enough to cover the door area , as the rest of the cubicle is plastic or similar
A fascinating insight Peter with how the conversion elements all fit together and if I may say, the end results looked impressive. I hope you do the same with other conversion companies, manufacturers etc. Thank you!!
Brilliant high quality video Peter. Thank you. They are an amazing van ! Would love to see a similar vlog on S&L
Blimey, didn’t expect to see this video pop up! We have a Reef currently but the fixed beds sounds interesting 🙂
I can't wait to see one! Especially as it'll have a proper one-piece mattress
@@MotorhomeCampervan that’s what appeals to me as it would be more comfortable than make up cushions🙂
Really nice video.
I just wish they did an Adria Twin clone.🤔
There are fixed bed models on the way very soon
I’ve no experience of Consort but they seem to have a good reputation.
Shower curtain (based on other comments) is disappointing these days. I was going to make an exasperated noise about the U shaped lounge ( much nicer than just two benches but my wife wouldn’t consider the layout for a second) so be interesting to see a fixed bed option.
The fixed bed model is coming, in all three lengths of Fiat
Interesting video, but the quality was like watching an old VHS tape🤔
Yes, the camera lens isn't great, blurring on the edges.
@@y0rkiebarI believe it’s called chromatic aberration
