LMC, Rapido. Itineo ?

[cayman-black]

Hi the reason i have choosen these three is because each one does a version with the lounge in the rear and face to face seats which in my mind give more floor space for my dogs.
LMC i have seen is in Germany, Rapido uk.
which of these is the better motorhome (A class)
Thanks.

Thank you Darren.

Thanks all for the replies.

So now i,m thinking LMC I655G,650G LHD these are in Germany. Under 7m which i kinda like.

Rapido 8094df havent found one as yet but i like the fact that the whole floor is flat 7.5 m big!

Hymer Duo Mobile nice but pricey and that wasted large window sill at back taken inside space imo.

Must have Auto box as well, why are so many with manual transmission? I know its an expensive option is that it?

Just started looking at these so sorry if i sound ignorant.

TIA.

Yes your right Darren as the Rapido you linked too has Auto and 150hp upgrade.

Trouble is the LMC new 17mdl is around £62k,

I was at the salon del Camper motorhome show in Parma Italy last week.
Yes i agree some of the £50k-£60k stuff looked really cheap and nearly put me off completely.
Ones i have come up with now i did not see there.

Just seen that Mobilvetta Kyacht TKL80 do a rear lounge model which looks very nice only thing is it has a drop down bed over the lounge which i,m not keen on.
Seems hard to find exactly what i would like without compromise.

Thanks Jody.

I have just been quoted £69K for a new LHD Mobilvetta Kyacht MH80, Auto, camera, Navi. Not too bad.

Thank you for the advice Spuffington. Don't worry i,m miles away from deciding yet. But my preference would still be new or a new last years model.

As i,m in Italy mostly i was thinking it might make sense, but perhaps not. Rapido and LMC are still right up there though.

[cayman-black]

What's surprising with Rapido is the water ingress warranty is only five years the same as Mobilvettas, whereas LMC offers twelve years, hmm.

Not sure if its an important issue or not. Also the Rapido is 7.5 meters whereas the other two are just under seven meters, will i notice the difference in driving?

[cayman-black]

I,m tempted to go and look at the LMC,s i have seen advertised in Germany as from what i,m reading here they should be made better and i have seen one at a good price.
As for payload i will not need much as it's only for two of us and our dogs which is why i don't want one with a large garage, its more floor space i need for the dogs really!, hence rear lounge models.
Are the Lmc,s good recommended? Thurbs , chopper. thx.

However, I do wonder at the practicalities of such a big monster

That's bigger than my house!

The best 6 berth, 6 belts we found was a Dethleff Trend 7877. Loved the size and space it offered, but not right for us at the moment with two daughters.

Maybe once they have buggered off to uni in 8years time and we’ve retired.

Just had a look , way to big for me and i really only like the Integrated A class models with their massive front screen and cabin.

Even though the first MH to catch my eye was the Swift Bessacarr 562, nice rear lounge.

Is Swift any good?

Ask your local motorhome repairman

lol, I take that as a no then.

[cayman-black]

Thanks dterry , yes i have checked reviews on that site. I hear what you say but that big front screen does it for me plus the bed above cab which is out of the way and yes really i would prefer an LHD.

I still have that Mobilvetta in my head even though i have yet to see one. Pluses are they are more or less the exact spec i want , i,m in Italy mainly so dealers around, plus nearer to what i want to pay under £70k. Hopefully will check one out soon.
