Van Conversions.
Based on larger commercial panel vans these vehicles offer more usable room than a campervan. Van conversions typically feature full size washrooms and fully equipped kitchen areas and their increased height means that occupants can stand up in them. Van conversions can offer sleeping accommodation for two to four persons. Their extra space and more comprehensive equipment levels make these motorhomes a more viable option for longer vacations although their increased size may limit their use as everyday transport.

Coachbuilt Motorhomes
These are essentially pupose built motorhomes where the manufacturer builds the living accommodation onto a commercial vehicle cab and chassis. This allows for a wide range of internal layouts to be offered. Coachbuilt motorhomes can offer sleeping accommodation for between two and six occupants with the option of fixed beds or above cab berths available. Coachbuilt motorhomes usually feature full size washrooms and fully equipped kitchens and their size means they offer considerably more storage space than other leisure vehicles. Although most coachbuilt vehicles have a gross vehicle weight of 3.5 Tonnes and can be driven on a standard driving licence, larger models have more stringent limitations on the age of licence holders.
