I First Saw The 2.5m Wide Hobby 540ul Caravan At A
I first saw the 2.5m wide Hobby 540UL Caravan at a Manchester show and was mighty impressed. However, the narrower 2.3m is the widest you can tow in UK without a commercial tow vehicle. Our version has 2 fixed single beds which is a great improvement over both the normal UK settee conversion, and the fixed double where someone has to climb over. Space inside the van is fantastic with storage everywhere. Lighting is particularly good, with subdued 'hidden' lights when the mood suits. Massive fridge, microwave but no oven. 12v battery and charger are optional extras but we don't bother as we never site anywhere without mains. The wide vans are a good choice if you are going to site somewhere long-term and you can get a truck to tow. Also much cheaper than UK vans. Finally, if you are adventurous, you can import from Germany and save loads.
I found this review helpful because...Thinking of buying a hobby second hand would like some owners comments on touring with the van. these are quite unusual in this country and are generally not covered in the caravanning press.
Is the 540 not 2.3 wide (max in UK)?? According to the Hobby Site, the wide vans (2.5) start with the 560 and upwards.
