Compare the Compass Avantgarde 150 with similar models
| Model | Berths | Maximum weight | Length | Typical price |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Compass Avantgarde 150 | 4 | 3500 kg | 7.34 m | £52,000 to £75,000 |
| Benimar TESSORO T840 | 4 | 3500 kg | 7.39 m | £52,000 to £78,000 |

The Compass Avantgarde 150 occupies a specific niche for those seeking a 7.34m vehicle that remains under the 3500kg weight threshold. While alternatives like the Elddis Evolution 194 share its dimensions and weight, the Avantgarde 150 is defined by its specific French bed and corner washroom layout. Other models in this price bracket, such as the Benimar Tessoro range, offer varying lengths from 7.39m to 7.43m, providing different spatial balances for 4 berth requirements. The choice between these models often rests on the preference for the Peugeot Boxer chassis versus other base vehicles and the specific utility of the SoLiD construction method.
Worth knowing: Specifications and prices can vary by model year, trim and optional equipment.
Ownership and Maintenance
- Utilise the underfloor heating to maximise internal floor space during winter use.
- Monitor the seals of the SoLiD construction as part of annual damp checks.
- Ensure the 3500kg MTPLM is not exceeded when the 4 berth capacity is fully utilised.
Common mistakes to avoid
- Exceeding the 595kg payload by installing heavy aftermarket accessories.
- Assuming all 4 berth models have similar storage; this layout lacks a large garage.
Worth knowing: The 7.34m length requires careful manoeuvring in tight spaces, though the rearview camera assists.
