    A sophisticated 8-foot wide twin-axle tourer.

    The Bessacarr By Design 845 is a 4 berth, twin-axle caravan measuring 7.98 metres in length. Built on an AL-KO chassis using the SMART construction system, it features a 2.45 metre wide bodyshell. The layout is defined by a transverse island bed and a central washroom, supported by high-specification amenities including ALDE heating and a solar panel as standard.

    • Twin-axle AL-KO chassis with SMART construction system.
    • Transverse island bed layout with a Duvalay mattress.
    • Central washroom featuring a separate fully lined shower cubicle.
    • ALDE radiator central heating and water heating system.
    • Kitchen equipped with a dual-fuel hob and large Dometic fridge-freezer.

    Worth knowing: The 1900kg MTPLM necessitates a high-capacity tow vehicle. A width of 2.45 metres requires careful navigation on narrower routes.

    Buying a Bessacarr By Design 845

    Who it suits

    • • Tourers seeking a spacious 8-foot wide interior for extended stays.
    • • Owners of powerful tow vehicles capable of managing a 1900kg MTPLM.

    Reasons to consider it

    • • The 2.45 metre width provides significant internal floor space compared to standard models.
    • • Twin-axle configuration offers enhanced stability during transit.
    • • High-end interior finishes including Italian-styled locker doors and premium soft furnishings.

    What to check

    • • Confirm the specific year of manufacture as specifications can vary by model year.
    • • Verify the operation of the ALDE heating system and the condition of the solar panel.
    • • Inspect the SMART construction seals and the panoramic front sunroof for integrity.

    Worth knowing: Payload is limited to 180kg, requiring careful management of heavy equipment. The 7.98 metre length may exceed the capacity of some standard storage pitches.

    Compare the Bessacarr By Design 845 with similar models

    ModelBerthsMTPLMLengthTypical price
    Bessacarr By Design 84541900 kg7.98 m£24,000 to £38,500
    Bessacarr By Design 83541900 kg7.98 m£24,500 to £38,000
    Bessacarr By Design 85041830 kg7.98 m£24,500 to £38,000

    The Bessacarr By Design 845 occupies a specific niche for those requiring a 7.98 metre, twin-axle caravan with a 1900kg MTPLM. While it shares dimensions with the 835 and 850 models, the 845 is distinguished by its transverse island bed and central washroom layout. When compared to the Swift Elegance or Buccaneer alternatives, it maintains a consistent 180kg payload, though buyers must weigh the luxury features against the substantial towing requirements of this 8-foot wide platform.

    Worth knowing: Specifications and prices can vary by model year, trim and optional equipment.

    Ownership and Maintenance

    • Utilise the solar panel to maintain battery health during periods of off-grid use.
    • Regularly service the ALDE system to ensure optimal winter performance.
    • Check tyre pressures frequently to maintain the stability benefits of the twin-axle setup.

    Common mistakes to avoid

    • • Exceeding the 180kg payload by installing heavy aftermarket accessories.
    • • Underestimating the turning circle required for a 7.98 metre twin-axle caravan.

    Worth knowing: Always verify the exact MTPLM on the weight plate before calculating towing ratios.
