Finally, a motorhome that stands out

We're currently at the Caravan Stockholm motorhome and caravan show at Kistamässan outside Stockholm. Although we love motorhomes, after a few rounds at a fair, it can sometimes feel a bit boring. After all, most motorhomes look approximately look the same.

Large and semi-large motorhomes are usually white, and 'flatbeds' can possibly be black. They vary with long beds or queen beds, and the kitchen can surprise you with different designs and finishes on the drawers and cabinets. The design is rarely more surprising than that. No wonder we were thrilled when we saw the Westfalia Kepler Sixty at Caravan Stockholm!

Small car with room for four

The Westfalia Kepler Sixty is 5.30 metres long, has a weight of 2800 kg and is equipped with a 150 hp petrol engine, with the best environmental classification. The car has four seats and four beds. Two of the sleeping places are in the unfolding sofa, while the others can be accommodated in the folding roof.

The driver's seats can be swivelled and the sofa is on rails, so it can be pulled back and forth as required. The dining table can be removed, if desired, and there are plenty of cupboards along the wall. The kitchen is small, but still contains two hotplates, a fridge, sink and a 40 litre fresh water tank. There is no toilet.

What do we think?

What a wonderfully cute little campervan! We think it's a bit too small for us, but it should be able to find loving owners. The comfort can of course not be compared to a larger motorhome, but if you are only prepared to do some manoeuvres a lá Goofy on Christmas Eve, you have most of what you need.

The motorhome we looked at is sold by Solhem Husbil, and the show price (including extras) was 699,000 SEK. The base price was set at 671,000 SEK, and possible options include leather steering wheel, reversing camera, petrol heating, mosquito net, awning and bike rack.

More motorhomes at Caravan Stockholm

We've seen a lot of other motorhomes at Caravan Stockholm this year, and you can see that flatbeds are still hot. For example, we checked out the Volkswagen Grand California (not the motorhome in the picture), which arrived in Sweden the morning of the show. We'll be back soon with more reports!
