Cosalt, Torino

We have bought a Torino as our first Van to see how we like Caravaning. We LOVE it and our next van will definitely be a Cosalt Torino, they are ageless!! We absolutely love ours, everything is in the right place and handy. We have a small hall way where the bathroom door, the second bedroom door and the main bedroom door are accessible and there is a little cupboard and the boiler against the outside wall. Very well designed. I have stayed in vans with doors to the bathroom and the second bedroom being along the galley kitchen back wall, not a good idea with children in and out of their room when trying to cook. We will definitely be buying another Torino, maybe a super next time. Hopefully we will get many more years from our 1998 model, she's lovely.

Bought one last year very pleased with it very cosy soon gets warm with being a small lounge even in the winter

Have one for 10 years is roomy and window and door hinges are breaking anyone know where to get parts

very bland and plain inside not the nicest caravan to look at on the outside looks 5 years older than equivalent van of the same age .eg.willerby bk bluebird etc.used prices over priced keep your money and buy a willerby will last years longer and look much better.owned one for 2 years nightmare from start to finish.i only wish i knew the problems i was going to have with caravan before purchasing

2007 Torino

Lovely comfortable caravan, plenty of work space in the kitchen. And spacious bright and airy living area. Bedrooms nicely set out incorporating drawers under the wardrobes and shaver socket in master bedroom.

2 toilets one with shower, both are again very bright a airy and dont feel closed in.

Bad points.

Main living, dining and kitchen lighting, another switch for these areas could be placed as entering the kitchen from the hallway. As all light switches for both living, dining and kitchen area are beside the living area door. Meaning should you come in from the rear the only light you have is from the hallway and then you have to walk through the dark kitchen and living area to turn the lights on.

Dining area, could be more rectangle maybe without the shelved cupboard to give more open space in the living area, but more space to get into the dining table.

Kitchen cooker is placement means you naturally go to open the oven from right to left. When in fact it is left to right. Having owned this caravan for almost 3 years, we still pull the wrong side even now. Which has resulted in the hinge having extra strain being put on it and finally it broke.

Shower room, sadly there is not air vent inside the shower to allow the steam to escape, resulting in mold appearing and the silcone to turn yellow very quickly after purchase.

Cosalt Torino 1998 28x12 This is my first static caravan altho bought second hand I love it, It has every thing you need, Have added a varandah which has made a big difference

Would prefer more room at dining area possibly rectangular table instead of round.

Coffee table needed also more electrical points for lamps(near front window). Two way light switch for day areas needed at door to passageway.
