    Last updated: 01 August 2026Reviewed by RoamWorthy Editorial Team

    Is the Compass Avantgarde Cv40 a practical 3-berth campervan?

    The Compass Avantgarde Cv40 is a versatile 5.99 metre van conversion that balances a rear U-shaped lounge with a front dinette. It accommodates three berths and provides four belted travel seats, making it suitable for couples or small families. With a 3500kg MTPLM and a 665kg payload, it offers a high specification for its mid-range price point, featuring a Dometic 90L fridge and Whale heating.

    • Three-berth capacity with four belted travel seats.
    • Rear U-shaped lounge and front dinette layout.
    • Built on the Peugeot Boxer 2.2 BlueHDi chassis.
    • Compact 5.99 metre length for easier manoeuvring.
    • Whale 4kW dual-fuel space saving heating system.

    Worth knowing: Floor space is restricted when the rear bed is fully deployed. The wet room washroom design may feel tight for taller occupants. Storage capacity is primarily optimised for two people.

    Buying a Compass Avantgarde Cv40

    Who it suits

    • • Couples seeking a compact 6-metre vehicle with a panoramic rear lounge.
    • • Small families requiring four belted seats in a van conversion.
    • • Drivers looking for a vehicle that can navigate narrow roads and market towns.

    Reasons to consider it

    • • The 5.99 metre length simplifies parking and urban driving.
    • • High 665kg payload for a vehicle of this size.
    • • Dual-purpose layout with both front and rear seating areas.

    What to check

    • • Test the conversion of the rear U-shaped lounge into a double bed.
    • • Assess the washroom dimensions to ensure they meet your requirements.
    • • Confirm the operation of the Whale 4kW dual-fuel heating system.
    • • Inspect the 2-burner hob and oven/grill in the galley kitchen.

    Worth knowing: Check the specific model year as prices range from 42000 to 68500. Verify the exact payload if optional equipment has been added.

    Compare the Compass Avantgarde Cv40 with similar models

    ModelBerthsMaximum weightLengthTypical price
    Compass Avantgarde Cv4033500 kg5.99 m£42,000 to £68,500
    Elddis Majestic 13533500 kg5.99 m£42,000 to £72,500
    Benimar Benivan 16133500 kg5.99 m£45,000 to £65,000

    The Compass Avantgarde Cv40 sits in a competitive 5.99 metre segment alongside models like the Elddis Evolution CV40 and the Auto-Trail F Line F60. While all these models share the 3500kg MTPLM and 3-berth capacity, the Avantgarde Cv40 is distinguished by its specific combination of a rear U-shaped lounge and four belted seats. Buyers must choose between the specific interior finishes and equipment levels offered by Compass versus the dealer-special or alternative brand configurations found in its rivals.

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

    Ownership and Maintenance Tips

    • Utilise the 665kg payload carefully to maintain the 3500kg MTPLM limit.
    • Make use of the Eco-Camel Orbit water-saving shower head to extend water tank life.
    • Ensure the front dinette seats are correctly secured when carrying four passengers.

    Common mistakes to avoid

    • • Overloading the storage which is primarily designed for two occupants.
    • • Neglecting to check the Whale heating system operation on both gas and electric.

    Worth knowing: The 2.26 metre width includes mirrors; ensure clearance in narrow lanes. Payload will decrease if heavy aftermarket accessories are installed.
