Benimar Tessoro 413: key facts
The Benimar Tessoro 413 is a four-berth motorhome measuring 6.52 metres long, 2.3 metres wide and 2.97 metres high. Its layout combines fixed rear bunks, an electric drop-down double bed, a side washroom with separate shower cubicle and a garage conversion beneath the bottom bunk. The 3,500kg MTPLM and 450kg payload are central buying checks.
- Ford Transit chassis with a 170bhp engine, according to the supplied editorial data.
- Four berths, using rear fixed bunks and a front electric drop-down double bed.
- The bottom bunk can convert to garage space, but using that storage changes the sleeping arrangement.
- A 145-litre slimline fridge with separate chiller drawer is listed among the key features.
- The side washroom includes a separate shower cubicle.
- The vehicle is listed at 3,500kg MTPLM and 450kg payload.
Worth knowing: Specifications can vary by model year, trim and optional equipment. Confirm the exact engine, equipment, dimensions and payload of the vehicle being considered. The supplied marketplace record shows no current listings, although six images are recorded.
Who should consider the Benimar Tessoro 413?
Who it suits
- Families needing four berths in a motorhome shorter than seven metres, with rear bunks for children and a drop-down double bed at the front.
- Buyers who value a separate shower cubicle and garage flexibility within a 6.52-metre layout.
- Drivers checking options at the 3,500kg threshold, subject to confirming the vehicle’s plated weight and their licence entitlement.
Reasons to consider it
- The fixed bunk and drop-down-bed arrangement provides four listed berths without relying on a lounge conversion.
- At 6.52 metres long, it is more compact than the allowed Benimar Tessoro T483 and Primero P286 alternatives.
- The 450kg stated payload gives a defined starting point for checking passengers, luggage and touring equipment.
- The separate shower cubicle is a notable feature within this compact layout.
- The bottom bunk’s garage conversion offers a choice between sleeping capacity and additional storage.
What to check
- Confirm the plated MTPLM, running weight and remaining payload on the specific vehicle, rather than relying only on the catalogue figure.
- Check how lowering the electric drop-down bed affects lounge access and whether its operation suits regular family use.
- Inspect the bottom-bunk garage conversion and confirm the storage dimensions meet the intended purpose.
- Measure access routes and storage carefully, especially if the rear bunks will remain in use.
- Verify the listed 145-litre fridge, separate chiller drawer, solar panel, reversing camera and other equipment on the exact trim.
Worth knowing: The supplied editorial describes a standard Category B licence as suitable, but licence entitlement and the vehicle’s plated weight should be checked before purchase. A four-berth rating does not remove the need to confirm seat-belted travel positions and the arrangement in the specific vehicle. Price information is supplied as a range from £52,000 to £78,000 and may not describe an individual vehicle.
Compare the Benimar Tessoro 413 with similar models
| Model | Berths | Maximum weight | Length | Typical price |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Benimar Tessoro 413 | 4 | 3500 kg | 6.52 m | £52,000 to £78,000 |
| Benimar Tessoro T413 | 4 | 3500 kg | 6.41 m | £48,000 to £72,000 |

The Benimar Tessoro 413 sits between the shorter allowed alternatives and the longer Tessoro T483 and Primero P286. Its defining balance is four berths, a 6.52-metre length, a separate shower cubicle and a lower-bunk garage conversion, alongside a 3,500kg MTPLM. The Tessoro T413 is shorter, while the T483 offers more length; the Benivan 161 P and Broadway EK TB LP are also shorter, and the Primero P286 is longer. None is an automatic winner: compare the exact layout, payload, equipment, price and dimensions against how the motorhome will be used.
Worth knowing: Specifications and prices can vary by model year, trim and optional equipment.
Ownership checks for the Tessoro 413
- Treat the 2.97-metre height and 2.3-metre width as planning dimensions when checking storage, access and low-clearance routes.
- Keep a written payload calculation from the 450kg figure, including passengers, water, luggage, accessories and garage contents.
- Use the drop-down bed and rear bunks as separate parts of the daily routine, checking that the lowered bed does not obstruct the lounge when access is needed.
- Decide before loading whether the lower bunk is being used as a berth or as garage space, because the layout cannot provide both functions in the same way at once.
- Check the 3,500kg limit whenever adding equipment or carrying substantial garage loads.
Common mistakes to avoid
- Assuming the compact 6.52-metre length means the motorhome can be treated like a car in every parking or access situation.
- Calculating payload from the 3,500kg MTPLM alone without accounting for occupants, touring loads and fitted or optional equipment.
- Leaving the bottom-bunk garage conversion loaded without checking its effect on the available sleeping arrangement.
Worth knowing: The supplied data does not provide operating instructions, service intervals or component-specific maintenance requirements. Any used-vehicle assessment should verify the actual condition and equipment of the individual example.
