| Model | Berths | MTPLM | Length | Typical price |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Coachman Wanderer | 6 | 1500 kg | 6.00 m | £12,000 to £32,000 |

The Coachman Wanderer sits in a competitive mid-to-high price bracket, offering a robust build quality that often results in higher weights than rivals like the Elddis Avante. While it shares berth capacities with the Bailey Pegasus and Swift Lifestyle, the Wanderer is distinguished by its specific dealer-special heritage and the inclusion of premium domestic-style appliances. The choice between these models often depends on the specific tow vehicle capacity and the preference for either Truma or Alde heating systems.
Worth knowing: Specifications and prices can vary by model year, trim and optional equipment.

Common mistakes to avoid
