Is the Rapido 696F 65th Anniversary right for you?
The Rapido 696F 65th Anniversary is a 7.49m motorhome designed for couples or small families seeking a refined island bed layout. Built on a 140BHP Fiat Ducato chassis, it features a flat-floor living area, a Smart Lounge, and a dedicated en-suite. With a 3500kg MTPLM, it is accessible to standard UK driving licence holders but requires careful management of its 435kg payload.
- Rear island bed with an adjustable headboard and dual-side access.
- Smart Lounge featuring face-to-face bench seating for a sociable environment.
- Electric drop-down double bed integrated into the ceiling for additional guests.
- Independent shower and washroom areas that form a full-width en-suite.
- Large heated rear garage equipped with dual access doors.
Worth knowing: The 7.49m length requires careful navigation on narrow roads. Payload is limited to 435kg before accounting for passengers and optional extras. The 3500kg MTPLM necessitates strict weight monitoring for full occupancy.
Buying a Rapido 696F 65th Anniversary
Who it suits
- • Couples who prioritise a permanent rear island bed and a separate en-suite.
- • Small families needing up to four berths without sacrificing daytime floor space.
- • Tourers who require a large, heated garage for bulky equipment.
Reasons to consider it
- • Exclusive anniversary styling and high-specification interior finishes.
- • Modern flat-floor design throughout the living and lounge areas.
- • Versatile sleeping options provided by the ceiling-integrated drop-down bed.
What to check
- • Test the operation of the electric drop-down bed and the adjustable island bed headboard.
- • Inspect the dual access doors of the heated garage for seal integrity.

Compare the Rapido 696F 65th Anniversary 140BHP with similar models
| Model | Berths | Maximum weight | Length | Typical price |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Rapido 696F 65th Anniversary 140BHP | 4 | 3500 kg | 7.49 m | £72,000 to £89,000 |
| Rapido 666F 140BHP Auto | 4 | 3500 kg | 7.49 m | £65,000 to £92,000 |
| Bailey Adamo 75-4DL | 4 | 3500 kg | 7.48 m | £68,000 to £79,500 |
The Rapido 696F 65th Anniversary sits in a competitive class of 7.49m island bed motorhomes. While it shares its 3500kg MTPLM and four berth capacity with alternatives like the Bailey Adamo 75 4i and Mobilvetta Kea 80, it distinguishes itself through its specific anniversary styling and the Smart Lounge configuration. Buyers must weigh the luxury of the island bed layout against the 435kg payload, which is a common consideration for vehicles in this size category.
Worth knowing: Specifications and prices can vary by model year, trim and optional equipment.
Ownership and Maintenance Tips
- Utilise the heated garage for drying gear, ensuring the dual access doors are fully latched before travel.
- Regularly cycle the electric drop-down bed to ensure smooth operation of the motor mechanism.
- Monitor the 3500kg MTPLM using a weighbridge if adding significant optional equipment.
Common mistakes to avoid
- • Exceeding the 435kg payload by failing to account for the weight of water, gas, and passengers.
- • Neglecting to secure items in the large rear garage, which can affect vehicle balance.
Worth knowing: The 7.49m length may limit access to some smaller pitches or rural routes. Weight management is critical when utilizing all four berths.
Alternatives to the Rapido 696F 65th Anniversary 140BHP
This model offers an identical length and MTPLM but provides a different internal configuration for those preferring twin beds over an island bed.
