A look at Mega Mobil, the Slovenian campervan manufacturer

The entire Mega Mobil range of campervans – which start in price with the Mega Classic 600 at £69,298 – is now available in the UK on a selection of four base vehicles – Fiat, Peugeot, MAN and Mercedes-Benz – and all in right-hand drive. All of its models also hold UK Whole Vehicle Type Approval and its EU equivalent, as well as COP (Conformity of Production) clearance, ensuring full compliance and quality control across its production line.

“We began with our models based on the Stellantis platforms (Fiat, Peugeot, etc), and the first MAN-based vehicles are now arriving at our dealers,” explains Adrien. “Mercedes-Benz-based models will follow, with our very first right-hand drive vehicle set to be presented at the NEC Show in October 2025.”

If you can’t make the October NEC show, don’t worry as Mega Mobil will also be at the February NEC show in 2026 and is also considering participating in additional local shows around the country.

While it has only been attracting British campervanners for a matter of months, buyers are already making their choice of favourite models clear – and it is no surprise it is the rear lounge models that are proving most popular.

Carrying the ‘Lounge’ name, all the campervans in this six-model range, from the compact two-berth Fiat Ducato-based 5.41m-long Lounge 540 to the range-topping MAN-based two-plus-two-berth 6.83m-long Mega Lounge 680 S, are already the favourites among British buyers.

“All of our Lounge models are proving very popular in the UK, thanks to their unique rear lounge layout,” confirms Adrien, who points out that there is one standout model in this best-selling range. “The Mega Lounge 640 features a classic UK rear U-shaped lounge layout, incorporating a drop-down bed that makes it easy to swap between daytime and night-time use. It boasts a large separate shower unit and there is always the option of adding a great-sized oven.”

British buyers have high expectations and this has not gone unnoticed by Mega Mobil. “The models we sell in the UK offer the same level of quality as those available in our other European markets,” confirms Dominic. “However, we do tend to spec the cabs with a higher level of equipment and driver conveniences than on the Continent. There is absolutely no compromise – UK customers benefit from the same high standards of build and finish, including premium 25mm Armaflex four-season insulation on the walls, sliding door, and rear doors, a 30mm XPS-insulated floor, and a generously equipped base vehicle as standard.”

Those buyers who have already been tempted by Mega Mobil campervans are a split between experienced campervanners who have owned several campervans or motorhomes beforehand and so know what they really want to younger couples and families who are looking for the lifestyle and freedom of a campervan.

“The more experienced buyers are looking to upgrade due to the equipment, quality and unique customisation we can offer,” explains Dominic. “And, we like to think we have a fresh up-to-date look about the brand for all the explorers out there.”

He adds that the campervan market has evolved significantly in recent years with buyers having higher expectations for quality, comfort and equipment. Therefore, Dominic says, vehicles have become more refined and better equipped. “What hasn’t changed is that people are still willing to invest in what brings them joy – their passions, their sense of freedom, their dreams.”

If your interest is piqued then head to this year’s October NEC show and the Mega Mobil stand as it will be showing for the first time in the UK its new Mercedes-based 600 and 700 MAX models.

And, if you’re considering investing in a new campervan, Adrien’s advice is excellent: “Take your time, do your research and compare what’s included in the standard specification versus the base prices you might see elsewhere. It’s not always easy to get it right the first or even the second time, but prioritising quality and clarity will always pay off in the long run.”
