Is the Rapido C86 65th Anniversary the right slimline motorhome?
The Rapido C86 65th Anniversary 140BHP Auto is a compact coachbuilt motorhome designed for agility without sacrificing high-end features. At 6.99m long and just 2.17m wide, it bridges the gap between van conversions and full-sized motorhomes. It features a 4-berth capacity, a 515kg payload, and a dedicated rear island bed layout, all built on a 3500kg chassis suitable for standard UK licences.
- Slimline 2.17m external width for improved maneuverability on narrow roads.
- Fixed rear island bed with an adjustable headboard for comfort.
- Duo'Space washroom featuring a pivoting partition to maximise floor area.
- 9-speed automatic transmission paired with a 140BHP engine.
- 3500kg MTPLM allowing operation on a standard UK Category B driving licence.
Worth knowing: The 2.17m width results in narrower interior gangways than standard coachbuilt models. External locker storage is more limited than that found in larger A-Class alternatives. While the 140BHP engine is standard, some users may find it less powerful for heavy alpine touring.
Buying a Rapido C86 65th Anniversary 140BHP Auto
Who it suits
- • Couples or small families who require the maneuverability of a 2.17m wide vehicle.
- • Drivers restricted to a 3500kg licence who still want a 515kg payload.
- • Tourers who prefer the convenience of a 9-speed automatic gearbox and a fixed island bed.
Reasons to consider it
- • It offers the structural insulation of a coachbuilt with a width closer to a van conversion.
- • The 65th Anniversary edition includes exclusive interior styling and badging.
- • Truma Combi 4 CP PLUS heating is fitted as standard for year-round UK use.
What to check
- • Confirm the specific upholstery and furniture finish (Luceo or Nacarat) included in the unit.
- • Verify the operation of the pivoting Duo'Space washroom partition.
- • Inspect the panoramic skyview roof for seal integrity and clarity.
Worth knowing: Interior gangway width is reduced due to the slimline 2.17m exterior profile. Check the specific furniture style (Luceo or Nacarat) as these vary by individual build.
Compare the Rapido C86 65th Anniversary 140BHP Auto with similar models
| Model | Berths | Maximum weight | Length | Typical price |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Rapido C86 65th Anniversary 140BHP Auto | 4 | 3500 kg | 6.99 m | £72,000 to £89,500 |
| Swift Trekker Xl | 4 | 3500 kg | 6.75 m | £69,000 to £78,000 |
| Rapido 854F 140BHP | 4 | 3500 kg | 6.70 m | £68,000 to £92,000 |
The Rapido C86 65th Anniversary occupies a specific niche, offering a 6.99m length and 2.17m width that is narrower than the Rapido 686F (7.2m) and the Swift Voyager 574 (7.07m). While it shares the 3500kg MTPLM common to the Swift Trekker XL and Voyager ranges, its island bed and Duo'Space washroom provide a different spatial priority compared to the Swift Voyager 564. It balances a 515kg payload against a slimline profile, making it a direct competitor for those who find standard 2.3m wide coachbuilts too cumbersome for rural routes.
Worth knowing: Specifications and prices can vary by model year, trim and optional equipment.
Ownership and Maintenance Tips
- Utilise the adjustable headboard on the island bed to create more daytime floor space in the bedroom.
- Regularly clean the panoramic skyview roof to maintain natural light levels in the front lounge.
- Monitor the Truma Combi 4 CP PLUS settings to optimise heating efficiency during winter use.
Common mistakes to avoid
- • Assuming all 4-berth models have equal interior walkway space; this slimline model is narrower.
- • Overloading the 515kg payload when touring with four occupants.
Worth knowing: Payload calculations should account for any additional dealer-fitted accessories. The 2.75m height requires attention to low bridges and overhanging branches.
