Rather like the look initially of the layout on the 6 berth! little bit on the long side but a good looking price!

I've spoken to Phil, the MD of Eterniti and he says the prototype has a few rough edges but it will be on display at Manchester and London shows. Initially, the only dealer site will be in Widnes in Cheshire and is scheduled to open on 1st March. 

 

More details here

It may be distortion in the images but it looked to me as though the 26' versions will be oversize for towing on a B or B+E licence, ie more than 7m (23') bodylength.

Wardrobes look small to non-existant on the various models but I'd like to see the 22' 4-berth in the showroom.

Hmmm we'll wait for more details on the length. IF we were serious I'd think about taking the no cost option of the 6 berth becoming five as tht's all we need and would give the two in the bunks a bit more room

Nigel Donnelly has reported in another thread that the Eterniti will be there Saturday and Sunday - having missed the start due to shipping delays.

was impressed with this van from the concept point of view and managed to have a look around it today at manchester. only came off the production line thurs/fri very rough around the edges and you can tell this. bathroom was extra wow factor as was most of it barring a few finishes, which we were assured would be sorted in the end product. only bugbear i thought was the lack of space in the triple bunk layout and the feeling of claustrophobia.. but the team were taking serious note of feedback etc and this i have been told will be reflected in the end product.well worth a trip around this van and hope they attempt a double slide out too! the only model on show was the ec2-26-bb6(5) and according to the figures mtplm of 1900kg

Thanks, that's the first indication of weights - 1900kg MTPLM is heavy but then it's a big caravan with a slide-out - when they open the showroom I'll go up to Cheshire and have a good look, particularly at the two "smaller" models.

we were thinking the triple bunk as a double bunk as per their website as a no cost option, would that improve things in there??

The single axle with slide out is quoted at 1500kg MTPLM with a MIRO of 1250kg ( Est )  as per sheet given out with the brochure :

Well worth a look due to the extra room gained with the slide out.
