Is the Bürstner Ixeo Time IT 586 a practical choice for touring?

The Bürstner Ixeo Time IT 586 is a compact motorhome measuring 5.99 metres in length, designed to offer the facilities of a larger vehicle within a manageable footprint. It features a 3500kg MTPLM and a 535kg payload, making it accessible for standard UK driving licences. The layout is defined by a longitudinal drop-down bed and a full-width rear washroom, providing a flexible living space for two to four people.

  • Compact 5.99 metre exterior length for easier manoeuvrability.
  • Innovative electric power-drop-down longitudinal bed system.
  • Full-width rear washroom featuring a separate shower cubicle.
  • Spacious L-shaped lounge with an adjustable dining table.
  • Substantial 535kg payload capacity on a 3500kg MTPLM chassis.

Worth knowing: Headroom in the lounge area is reduced when the drop-down bed is in the lowered position. Kitchen worktop space is limited, which may affect complex meal preparation. Internal storage requires organised packing to maximise the available space.

The Bürstner Ixeo Time IT 586 occupies a specific niche, providing a high-specification German build within a 5.99 metre frame. While alternatives like the Chausson Etape Line or Auto-Trail Expedition 67 offer similar dimensions and weight limits, the Bürstner is distinguished by its specific longitudinal drop-down bed and full-width rear washroom layout. Buyers must weigh the premium interior finish and clever spatial design against the headroom compromises inherent in drop-down bed models.

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

Ownership and Maintenance Tips

  • Regularly clean the separate shower cubicle in the rear washroom to prevent limescale build-up.

Common mistakes to avoid

  • Overloading the drop-down bed mechanism beyond its intended capacity.
  • Failing to secure items in the large external storage lockers before transit.
