About the Compass Avantgarde 115

The Compass Avantgarde 115 is a masterclass in compact motorhome design, specifically engineered for couples who value agility without sacrificing domestic comfort. Built on the dependable Peugeot Boxer chassis, this low-profile coachbuilt model measures under six metres in length, making it exceptionally easy to navigate through narrow country lanes or find parking in busy coastal towns. Inside, the clever use of space creates a surprisingly airy lounge with twin parallel benches that transform into a large double bed or two short singles, supported by a well-equipped end kitchen and a space-saving corner washroom.

Despite its diminutive footprint, the 115 doesn't skimp on quality, featuring the Whale heating system and the bonded 'SoLiD' construction technology synonymous with the Erwin Hymer Group. It is the ideal choice for first-time buyers or downsizing motorhomers who want a vehicle that can double as a daily driver if necessary. Whether you are planning a weekend coastal getaway or a tour of the Highlands, this motorhome provides a reliable and cozy base.
