Worth knowing: Specifications and prices can vary by model year, trim and optional equipment.
Ownership and Maintenance Tips
- Utilise the 1185kg payload to distribute heavy items within the heated double floor to maintain a low centre of gravity.
- Regularly check the seals on the impact-resistant polyester roof as part of annual maintenance.
- Make use of the 230V and 12V sockets in the heated garage to maintain leisure batteries or equipment.
Common mistakes to avoid
- • Underestimating the turning circle of the 7.49m AL-KO chassis in tight coastal villages.
- • Exceeding the 4400kg MTPLM by failing to account for the weight of water in the double-floor tanks.
Worth knowing: The 2.35m width and 2.89m height require careful route planning, particularly on rural roads.
