Tabbert Da Vinci 490 TD: key facts

The Tabbert Da Vinci 490 TD is a four-berth caravan with a French bed, U-shaped lounge and side kitchen. Its recorded dimensions are 7.3 metres long, 2.32 metres wide and 2.62 metres high, with an MTPLM of 1700 kilograms and a payload of 310 kilograms.

  • Four berths, with a fixed longitudinal French bed and a U-shaped lounge layout.
  • Recorded dimensions of 7.3 metres length, 2.32 metres width and 2.62 metres height.
  • MTPLM of 1700 kilograms and payload of 310 kilograms. Confirm the relevant figures for the specific model year, trim and equipment.
  • Recorded features include an AL-KO chassis, Big Foot steady legs, an integrated GRP roof and Truma heating.
  • The source record includes four hosted images, while the current listing count is zero.

Worth knowing: Specifications can vary by model year, trim and optional equipment. The supplied data does not give a production year, so age and year-specific equipment require confirmation. The supplied record does not provide a current listing price for an individual caravan.

Buying a Tabbert Da Vinci 490 TD

Who it suits

  • Couples or small families wanting four berths, a permanent French bed and a separate lounge area that can support social use.
  • Buyers whose tow vehicle and driving licence arrangements can accommodate a caravan recorded at 1700 kilograms MTPLM.
  • Owners seeking a layout with a U-shaped lounge, side kitchen and fixed sleeping area rather than a fully convertible sleeping arrangement.

Reasons to consider it

  • The fixed longitudinal French bed avoids converting the main lounge every night.
  • The U-shaped lounge offers a defined seating and living area within the four-berth layout.
  • The 310-kilogram recorded payload provides capacity for touring equipment, subject to checking the specific caravan's plated weights.
  • The recorded double-roof and ventilated roof systems are identified as supporting insulation and ventilation, while the GRP roof is listed for hail protection.
  • The recorded AL-KO chassis, Big Foot steady legs and Truma heating are useful equipment points to verify on an individual example.

What to check

  • Confirm the VIN plate, MTPLM and actual running order before matching the caravan to a tow vehicle, because the recorded MTPLM is 1700 kilograms.
  • Measure or allow for the recorded 7.3-metre length, 2.32-metre width and 2.62-metre height when checking storage, access and pitch suitability.
  • Inspect the French bed, U-shaped lounge and side kitchen in the particular example, as layout details and equipment may vary.
  • Check the condition and operation of the roof systems, GRP roof, heating, lighting and steady legs rather than relying only on the catalogue description.
  • Confirm the door position and campsite access arrangements, since the existing editorial flags a Continental door placement on the UK offside.

Worth knowing: The supplied information does not identify a production year or exact trim. Price information is supplied as a range of 18500 to 38000, but an individual caravan's price requires confirmation. A listed payload is not a substitute for checking the plated weights and the caravan's actual loaded condition.

The Tabbert Da Vinci 490 TD sits among four-berth caravans with broadly similar recorded lengths and weight figures to the listed alternatives, but its supplied dimensions, 1700-kilogram MTPLM, 310-kilogram payload and French-bed, U-shaped-lounge layout should be compared with the exact competing specification. The alternatives have different recorded lengths, supplied price ranges and, in some cases, a lower MTPLM or GVW figure. There is no basis in the supplied data to declare one model the overall winner.

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

Owning a Tabbert Da Vinci 490 TD

  • Keep the caravan within its recorded 1700-kilogram MTPLM and treat the 310-kilogram payload as a limit to verify against the plate and actual load.
  • Plan storage and site access around the recorded 7.3-metre length, 2.32-metre width and 2.62-metre height.
  • Use the French bed and U-shaped lounge as separate functional zones, while checking that the lounge conversion remains suitable for the other berths.
  • Check the side kitchen, Truma heating, dimmable ambient lighting and roof systems as part of routine ownership checks.
  • Use the Big Foot steady legs correctly and confirm that the caravan is stable before occupying the U-shaped lounge.

Common mistakes to avoid

  • Assuming the four-berth rating removes the need to check the loaded weight and available payload.
  • Ignoring the recorded width and height when planning storage, access or a pitch.
  • Treating the stated layout and equipment as fixed without confirming the exact model year, trim and optional equipment.

Worth knowing: No age-specific maintenance history or fault pattern is supplied, so condition must be assessed on the individual caravan. The supplied data does not establish how any optional equipment affects weight or payload.
