The Dethleffs Just Camp T 6762

Just Camp is a brand-new range from Dethleffs for 2024, offering a selection of six layouts, all in low-profile bodywork (hence the ‘T’ in the name, referring to the German word, teilintegriert). All of the them are based on the Citroën Jumper (that’s the moniker of the Relay van in the rest of Europe), which is a sister to the Peugeot Boxer. 

The Just Camp is one of Dethleffs’ entry-level line-ups, sitting below the Trend but having a ‘full-width’ body (2.33m), unlike the slimmer Globebus Go. 

Of course, if you prefer a Ford cab, then there’s also the Just Go at a slightly lower (£70-75k) price point. But this layout doesn’t figure in the Ford-based range – and it’s the only Just Camp floorplan without an island or twin beds at the rear. 

 

The spec

Base vehicle spec includes the 140hp engine and six-speed manual gearbox (Citroën doesn’t currently offer an automatic option), as well as a wide-track rear axle. ESP, Traction Plus, Hill Descent Control and a tyre pressure monitoring system are standard, but there’s no spare wheel (just a Fix ‘n’ Go kit). 

The cab comes in Polar White with a matching front bumper. Alloy wheels and an upgrade to the 165hp engine are available at extra cost.

Simple exterior styling belies the position of the Just Camp in the Dethleffs portfolio but positives are the 70cm-wide habitation door with flyscreen, window and central locking, plus a GRP roof and Lifetime construction with EPS insulation and a 49mm-thick floor. An opening overcab sunroof is also standard. 

 

The interior

Inside, there’s pale Noce Nagano woodwork and grey Drake upholstery, but what’s key here is the spacious layout, especially considering the sub-7m overall length. 

In fact, this type of floorplan is now one of the best sellers, offered by Bailey and Swift as well as many of the big continental brands. It was first seen from Chausson and mates a face-to-face lounge and drop-down bed up front with a full-width rear washroom and even a garage. 

Here, the garage comes with doors on both sides, adjustable lashing points and generous headroom of 1.23m – plenty for bikes – as well as useful internal access through the washroom.

The large front lounge is a major part of the appeal here, with long settees (especially long on the nearside). They are a tad high off the floor for those with shorter legs but the soft backrest cushions help with comfort when relaxing. 

The cab floor is higher but both seats swivel right round and a table that folds in half increases the impression of space. Downlighters are mounted in the base of the electric drop-down bed above and Roman blinds are fitted at the side windows. 

 

The washroom

If the spacious lounge doesn’t sell you the T 6762, then the equally generous washroom probably will. 

Slide back the silver tambour door and you step up into a dressing room with the washbasin and cassette loo on  your left and the shower to your right. Ahead of you, behind mirrored doors, is a vast wardrobe with shelves and hanging space. 

Even more of a star feature, perhaps, is the shower, with 2.04m headroom, twin drains in its tray and a hanging rail for wet gear. 

 

The kitchen

In the kitchen, you might be disappointed to find just two rings on the gas hob but a low-level oven (not shown in the German-spec motorhome in our images) is also fitted for the UK market. 

There’s plenty of storage and worktop here, while opposite is a 142-litre Thetford fridge with bottle drawer.

Also fitted in the Just Camp is 6kW gas-only blown-air heating (a 230V element is optional), along with an inboard fresh water tank and insulated waste tank.

 

Where to buy

Dethleffs has 12 dealers around the UK, including BC Motorhomes in Scotland and 3 A’s Leisure in Wales.

In England, Bardsea Leisure in Ulverston is the furthest north, and Highbridge Caravan Centre and Southwest Motorhomes cover, err, the southwest.

Other long-standing Dethleffs retailers include Lowdhams in Nottingham and Pullingers in Essex.
