    Thanks, Chris.

    Yes!  Doesn’t it look good… REALLY good?

    It still misses when up against the Exsis, though, in my opinion…

    • front seats don’t turn toward and into any kind of ‘lounging area’;
    • nowhere near the Tardis-like storage of the Exsis;
    • a smaller washroom/shower, that you have to “organise” in order to use;
    • it’s an elevating roof, too, without the Exsis’ level of insulation, although the inflatable double-wall looks very interesting.

    After those criticisms, now for the good parts…

    • I just LOVE that panoramic lounge;
    • the rear opening tailgate/platform is magnificent;
    • four-wheel-drive – excellent;
    • it’s narrow-bodied and it’s short.

    I’d have one in a heartbeat!

    But WHY don’t Hymer just update the design of our Exsis a little bit – it would be a winner!!

    May I suggest…

    • using a standard chassis cab (for economic, cost reasons);
    • offer four-wheel-drive as an option;
    • a ‘high top’ like ours, but move the bed backwards so that it can be accommodated by the st8andard chassis cab/windscreen, again for economic cost reasons;
    • rejig so that a “staircase” can be used instead of a ladder;
    • the SG Vario as the standard vehicle (two forward-facing seatbelted seats, that can both convert to side-facing settees if required – THE best layout in my opinion);
    • a larger fridge/freezer as standard;
    • an oven or microwave as standard;
    • utilise the unused space above the ‘fridge as more storage.

    Other than that, I cannot think of anything that improves our Exsis!
