Coachman motorhomes: 2024 Essential Guide

About Coachman

With customer comfort and confidence in mind, Coachman’s presence in the twenty-first century leisure vehicle market continues to grow…

Coachman has specified all of its motorhomes to ensure they have all the equipment British buyers want. So you get the Mercedes chassis with 170bhp engine and the excellent nine-speed automatic gearbox, various driving aids (ABS, automatic braking, crosswind assist, rain sensor for the wipers and headlight assist).

The cab also comes with the 10.25in MBUX infotainment system, which has Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, so you can integrate your phone into the system for calls, navigation and more; function controls on the steering wheel help with this.

Stepping on board, you have a twin sofa lounge that hides a clever trick. One sofa swivels to create two extra travel seats – no faffing about with sofa bases or cushions here.

The central kitchen should cater for all cooks – dual-fuel hob (gas and electric), grill, oven, microwave and 171-litre fridge/freezer; there’s even an integrated extractor fan.

The washroom is split across the aisle; swing the toilet compartment door to make an en suite to the island bedroom at the rear. The shower cubicle is large and has a pumped drain for a faster flow of water out of the tray.

When you step on board, though, we guarantee one of the first things you’ll notice is luxury deep pile removable carpets – in sections allowing you to pick and choose the areas you want to treat your bare feet to. It’s also worth mentioning the pull-out storage trays and drawers in the kitchen. All are locked for travel with one single twist catch and storage above is equally practical.
