Save £20k on a Consort campervan
In the face of continuing delays and poor availability of Fiat Ducato panel vans for its van conversion range, Leeds-based Consort Motorhomes has come up with a solution to get would-be campervan owners on the road sooner – and at lower cost

The company has sourced a supply of used Peugeot Boxer vans to convert, all of which are under two years old and with up to 25,000 miles recorded (sometimes much less). They come with the balance of Peugeot’s base vehicle warranty and, as the conversions are brand-new, the habitation side is covered by Consort’s usual three-year warranty.
Prices for these pre-owned Peugeots with new conversions start at £54,950 for the medium-wheelbase Kite S1 model. All three sizes of Consort camper – 5.41m (Kite and Nova), 5.99m (Cove, Pace and Reef) and 6.36m (Oslo) are available and savings of up to £20k are possible in comparison with the equivalent Fiat Ducato-based campervan built on a new, unregistered base vehicle.
All models are two-berth, rear lounge conversions, while the Peugeot cabs come with a 5in sat-nav display, reversing sensors, air-conditioning, cruise control, an alarm, radio, driver’s airbag and remote central locking. All are painted white.
Conversion specification includes an oven and grill, three-burner hob, 90-litre fridge (152-litre on 6.36m campervans), twin 95Ah leisure batteries, a 100W solar panel, 70 or 90-litre fresh water tank (depending on model), Truma gas/electric heating and a 25-litre underslung gas tank.
Consort Motorhomes’ MD, Scot Naylor, says,
We have between two and four Peugeot vans coming in every week, so it’s keeping the factory busy. And, if your budget doesn’t stretch to an all-new van conversion, this is an ideal solution.
