Is the Elddis Avalon 285 the right low-profile motorhome for you?
The Elddis Avalon 285 is a 7.39 metre low-profile motorhome designed for four people, featuring a signature layout of fixed twin single beds and a full-width end washroom. Built on a Peugeot Boxer chassis with a 3500kg MTPLM, it balances a sociable front lounge with practical travel features like hidden Aguti foldaway seats. It is particularly suited to those seeking permanent bedding and a high-specification heating system for year-round use.
- Fixed rear twin single beds with luxury mattresses.
- Full-width rear washroom featuring a separate shower cubicle.
- Front lounge with Aguti foldaway travel seats for four-person transit.
- Alde 24-hour multi-programmable central heating system.
- Solid Construction high-strength bonded body shell.
Worth knowing: The 7.39 metre length may require careful planning for parking in standard spaces. Payload of 450kg must be managed carefully when travelling with four adults. Headroom is lower than some over-cab models due to the low-profile design.
Buying an Elddis Avalon 285
Who it suits
- • Couples who prefer the convenience of fixed twin beds and a large rear bathroom.
- • Small families requiring four belted travel seats and a convertible front double bed.
- • Year-round tourers who benefit from the Alde central heating and bonded body shell.
Reasons to consider it
- • The 450kg payload provides capacity for touring essentials within a 3500kg limit.
- • The 2.82 metre height maintains a low-profile silhouette while offering a panoramic sunroof.
- • The end washroom provides a level of space typically reserved for larger motorhome classes.
What to check
- • Test the operation of the Aguti foldaway seats beneath the settees.
- • Inspect the Alde heating system controls and programming functions.
- • Check the condition of the luxury mattresses on the fixed twin beds.
- • Verify the kitchen equipment including the dual-fuel hob and microwave.
Worth knowing: Confirm the specific payload remaining after any dealer-fitted accessories are added. Verify the driving licence requirements for a 3500kg vehicle if you have specific restrictions.
Compare the Elddis Avalon 285 with similar models
| Model | Berths | Maximum weight | Length | Typical price |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Elddis Avalon 285 | 4 | 3500 kg | 7.39 m | £48,000 to £72,000 |
| Elddis Evolution | 4 | 3500 kg | 7.34 m | £45,000 to £78,000 |
| Elddis Evolution 155 140BHP | 4 | 3500 kg | 7.34 m | £52,000 to £74,000 |
The Elddis Avalon 285 occupies a specific niche in the 7.39 metre class, focusing on fixed twin beds and a full-width rear washroom. While alternatives like the Elddis Evolution 155 or Benimar Tessoro T840 offer similar 3500kg MTPLM weights and four-berth capacities, the Avalon 285 distinguishes itself with the inclusion of the Alde heating system and the specific Aguti foldaway seating configuration. The choice between these models often depends on the preference for the rear washroom layout versus the different bed configurations found in the Evolution or Tessoro ranges.
Worth knowing: Specifications and prices can vary by model year, trim and optional equipment.
Ownership and Maintenance
- Utilise the under-bed storage for heavier items to maintain a stable centre of gravity.
- Ensure the sky-view panoramic sunroof seals are kept clean to maintain the low-profile integrity.
- Practice manoeuvring the 7.39 metre length in open spaces before visiting restricted sites.
Common mistakes to avoid
- • Overloading the overhead lockers and under-bed storage beyond the 450kg payload capacity.
- • Neglecting to program the Alde 24-hour heating system for optimal efficiency.
Worth knowing: The 2.26 metre width requires awareness on narrow rural roads. Water tank levels should be monitored to stay within the 450kg payload limit when four passengers are aboard.
