    Is the Hobby EXCELLENT EDITION 540 WLU a practical choice for touring?

    The Hobby EXCELLENT EDITION 540 WLU is a 7.27m single-axle caravan designed for up to four people. It is distinguished by a full-width rear washroom and longitudinal twin beds, offering a layout that prioritises privacy and ease of movement. With a 1600kg MTPLM and a 214kg payload, it combines German engineering with a bright, Nordic-style interior. The inclusion of the HobbyConnect system and ambient LED lighting makes it a technologically modern choice for year-round touring.

    • Full-width rear washroom featuring a separate shower cubicle for enhanced privacy.
    • Twin longitudinal beds equipped with high-quality mattresses for easy night-time access.
    • Front U-shaped lounge that converts into a double bed to accommodate up to four berths.
    • HobbyConnect system allowing smartphone control of integrated onboard technology.
    • Extra-wide entrance door with triple-point locking and an integrated waste bin.

    Worth knowing: The 2.3m width may require extra care when navigating narrow rural roads. Specifications can vary by model year, trim and optional equipment. The premium price point reflects the high-end Scandinavian-inspired interior finish.

    Buying a Hobby EXCELLENT EDITION 540 WLU

    Who it suits

    • • Couples seeking a luxury home-from-home with a spacious, private rear bathroom.
    • • Tourers who prefer the convenience of fixed twin beds over daily bed-making.

    Reasons to consider it

    • • The Scandinavian-inspired interior provides a bright and airy living environment.
    • • High-quality insulation and build standards support comfortable use in all seasons.
    • • Integrated ambient LED lighting and modern furniture design offer a contemporary aesthetic.

    What to check

    • • Verify the operation of the HobbyConnect smartphone interface with the onboard systems.
    • • Inspect the condition of the longitudinal twin bed mattresses and the U-shaped lounge conversion mechanism.
    • • Check the triple-point locking system on the extra-wide entrance door for smooth operation.

    Worth knowing: Ensure your tow vehicle is compatible with the 1600kg MTPLM using a towing calculator. The handle-free furniture design requires a specific touch compared to traditional cabinets.

    Compare the Hobby EXCELLENT EDITION 540 WLU with similar models

    ModelBerthsMTPLMLengthTypical price
    Hobby EXCELLENT EDITION 540 WLU41600 kg7.27 m£24,000 to £33,500
    Coachman Vip 54541590 kg7.38 m£20,000 to £38,000
    Bailey Unicorn Deluxe Cabrera41600 kg7.34 m£20,000 to £38,000

    The Hobby EXCELLENT EDITION 540 WLU sits in a competitive price bracket between 24000 and 33500. While it shares a 1600kg MTPLM with the Bailey Unicorn Deluxe Cabrera, the Hobby distinguishes itself with its specific 7.27m length and Scandinavian design language. Alternatives like the Coachman Vip 545 offer longer bodies at 7.38m, whereas the Hobby focuses on a layout that maximises the utility of its 2.3m width through a full-width rear washroom. The choice between these models often rests on the preference for German engineering versus British-built alternatives with varying weights and lengths.

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

    Ownership and Maintenance Tips

    • Utilise the 214kg payload efficiently by distributing weight evenly across the 7.27m chassis.
    • Regularly update the HobbyConnect software to ensure seamless control of the caravan tech.
    • Clean the Nordic-style furniture surfaces with non-abrasive materials to maintain the bright finish.

    Common mistakes to avoid

    • • Overloading the rear washroom storage, which can negatively affect the single-axle balance.
    • • Neglecting to secure the handle-free furniture doors properly before transit.

    Worth knowing: Payload is limited to 214kg; heavy items should be stored low and over the axle.
