High Spec Base Vehicle Packages

Our luxury conversions are based on the new high specification Euro 6.9 Fiat Ducato 2.2 140hp Multijet III manual and the Peugeot Boxer Professional Euro 6 2.2 140hp manual in White with Consort graphics.

Auto Base Vehicle Options (Fiat Only)

There is also the option of a fully automatic 9 speed gearbox on the 5.41m and 5.99m Fiat models.

Tracker

All base vehicles are fitted with a Cat 2 immobiliser as standard – for added security you may wish to add a monitored Tracker – this may also be a requirement of your insurance company – the tracker we fit is a Phantom iTrack plus S7. Using the free app you will be able to monitor the position and movement of your vehicle at all times – Phantom will also monitor your vehicle with phone alerts when any unauthorised movement is made – there is an annual monitoring charge of £149 or £13.50 per month on direct debit payable directly to Phantom.

Sleeping

The lounge quickly converts into a comfortable sleeping area using the side cushions as the centre infill and is configured using our slide out bed system.

Leisure Batteries

The leisure batteries and charging system are key factors in the day to day running of your motorhome so it is important that the leisure batteries are up to the job. We fit 2 x 95a deep cycle leisure batteries as standard (190a). We also fit a 160w solar panel and regulator as standard (excludes JIVE model) which provides a charge to both the leisure batteries and the vehicle battery. There is also the option to upgrade to Lithium batteries for extended off grid use.

Lighting

All our conversions have warm white LED lighting throughout, each light is individually switched to give you total control over your ambient lighting. There is also an LED awning light.

USB Ports

Numerous USB charging ports are conveniently sited to charge your devices, so you’ll be able to charge several devices at the same time.

Auto Retract Step (excludes JIVE model)

The entrance step will extend and retract at the press of a button and for safety reasons will automatically retract as soon as the ignition is turned on.

TV Aerial

Our roof mounted omni-directional digital TV aerial gives you the best possible chance of finding a signal as you retune between areas.

230v Mains

3 x 230v sockets are conveniently placed in the kitchen area and lounge for use when you are on mains, we also include a 25m mains hook-up cable as part of our comprehensive package.

Heating and Plumbing

We have fully utilised the underside of the van to optimise the volume of the fresh and waste water. The underslung tanks are made of a thick insulated and durable high grade plastic so that they will not freeze when in use during the winter months. There is the option of adding a defrost element for use in extreme sub-zero temperatures.

Heating and Hot Water

The Truma Combi 4e boiler heating and hot water system operates on either gas or mains electric with an even distribution of heating outlets throughout the van. It is fitted with a digital thermostat and timer so that you can control the heating system day and night. JIVE model electric heating and hot water.

Refillable Gas Tank (excludes JIVE model)

All our vans are fitted with a 25L underslung gas tank with level gauge monitor, this allows you to easily manage your gas and significantly reduces the cost of refilling.

Windows and Rooflights

Privacy tinted Polyvision double glazed windows and large Heki rooflights ensure that the living area is light, well ventilated and condensation free. All windows and rooflights have blinds and flyscreens.

Insulation

All our van conversions are fully insulated with grade 3 thermal insulation, fully winterised and perfect for all year round use.

The Charging System

The quality of your leisure batteries is important, but what is equally important is the means by which the batteries are recharged, leisure batteries receive a charge from three sources:

1. Mains hook up charger – This has been the most common way of charging the leisure batteries and in the past mains hook up was necessary to maintain a charge to the batteries. Now with alternative charge sources available, it is possible to maintain a charge to the leisure batteries without the need for a constant mains supply, giving you the option to spend more time off grid.
2. Vehicle alternator charge – When the vehicle engine is running, the alternator recharges the vehicle starter battery and by connecting the leisure batteries to the starter battery some of the charge created by the alternator finds it’s way into the leisure batteries, so the leisure batteries will receive a charge when the engine is running.
3. Solar panel (excludes JIVE model) – A roof mounted 160w solar panel is a good source of power and we fit one 160w as standard to trickle charge the batteries giving you several days independent camping. To achieve prolonged periods of static mains free camping we recommend that you add a second or third 160w solar panel.

Conversion Options

Door Finishes

All doors come as standard in our matching Sand Oak finish with the option to upgrade the kitchen area doors to Nimbus Grey.

Fabric Trimmed Upholstery

Our luxury upholstery comes as standard with a Dove Grey fabric trim.

Leather Trimmed Upholstery

For added durability our luxury upholstery is also available with a grey leather trim creating an easy wipe clean finish. The front seats are also trimmed in leather to match.

Upholstery Protection

Protect your upholstery from spills and stains using the very latest upholstery guard.

Nearside Bed Extended (5.99m & 6.36m only)

The nearside part of the bed can be extended from 6’3″ to 6’6″ which works well for our taller customers – this reduces the kitchen drawer pack by 3″ but still maintains ample drawer space.

Truma Diesel & Electric Boiler

The new Truma 4de diesel and electric boiler is ideal for those wishing to spend more time off grid using the diesel stored in the van fuel tank rather than relying on the availability of LPG to refill the underslung gas tank.

Fiamma F80S Awning

The Fiamma wind out awning creates the perfect shade area adjacent to the sliding door for those hot sunny days.

Fiamma Rear Door Mounted Bike Rack

The Fiamma carry-bike is designed specifically for the Fiat Ducato and will carry two bikes with a combined weight of up to 35kg. It folds upwards when not in use and still allows access via the rear doors. Other bike racks are available, please ask for details.

Standard Tow Bar

We fit a Ducato specific high quality tow bar with 13 pin electrics suitable for towing or to accommodate a tow bar mounted bike rack.

Swing Away Tow Bar (for Bike Rack)

A swing away tow bar can be fitted to take a tow bar mounted bike rack e.g. Thule – this will allow the bike rack to swing away from the rear doors giving you full access to the rear boot storage area.

Avtex 24″ Smart TV

We supply the Avtex 24″ Smart TV fitted with an adjustable bracket. The Smart facility gives you access to all your favourite catch up channels including Netflix, Prime Video, YouTube and general access to the internet – use your phone or a mobile router to create a Wi-Fi connection.

Flyscreen for Sliding Door

An internal sliding flyscreen can be fitted to the sliding door to allow extra ventilation and deter flying insects from getting in.

External Gas Barbeque Point

An external gas barbeque point can be fitted on the near side rear quarter to connect your barbeque to the underslung gas tank supply.

Fresh Water Tank Defrost

A 12v heated element can be fitted to the fresh water tank to prevent the water freezing in extreme sub-zero temperatures.

Ceramic Paint Protection

A durable ceramic high gloss finish to protect your paint work and maintain it’s shine without the need for polishing, this also makes washing your motorhome so much easier.

Roof mounted 12v Air Con

A 12v roof mounted Air Con Unit can be fitted in place of the front 400 x 400 Heki, this will work both on and off grid (provided the batteries are well charged.) – this is an energy efficient way of cooling the living area.

Cab Screens

Internal Thermal Cab Screens

Internal thermal screens attach to the front windscreen and the door windows to insulate the cab area. These also work to black out the cab keeping it cooler in the summer and warmer in the winter.

Remis Cab Blinds

An alternative to internal thermal cab screens are Remis concertina cab blinds which can be fitted to the cab area.

Mains Free Plus

Additional 160w Solar Panel

A second 160w solar panel can be fitted to add even more charge to the leisure batteries, this is ideal for those who prefer to spend more time mains free camping.

Lithium 100a battery upgrade

If it becomes apparent that you are spending more time off grid and your standard leisure batteries are unable to keep up with your increased power usage even with the addition of a second and third solar panel, it may be worth upgrading to a Lithium battery.

Lithium 200a battery upgrade

For extended off grid use and particularly when using an inverter a 200a Lithium battery pack (2 x 100a) together with three solar panels will provide the optimum level power.

1000w inverter

An inverter will turn the 12v power in the batteries to 230v and is ideal for those who need a level of mains power when off grid – typically used for a hair dryer, charging electric bike batteries, laptops etc.

1000w power pack

This is a separate Lithium battery power pack with integrated 1000w inverter fitted with 80w solar panel and 2 x sockets. It has a separate solar feed to charge it and a built in inverter for use with mains appliances up to 1000w. As this is a separate Lithium battery power pack it prevents excessive drain on the main habitation batteries.

Handover Day

When you come to collect your new motorhome we will take the time to explain all aspects of your new conversion to help you fully understand how everything works. This will take most of the day so you will need to aim to be with us for 10am – we will break for lunch between 12.30 and 1pm (you may wish to bring some lunch with you) and aim to get you on your way by 3pm. We strongly recommend that you stay in the Leeds area for at least one night so if there is anything you are unsure about, we are at hand to deal with this for you the following day. We will give you details of some local campsites prior to collection.

We will confirm your handover date which will be a Tuesday, Wednesday or Thursday, in order for you to be with us for 10am you may wish to travel to Leeds and stay over the night before – the nearest hotel to us is the Clayton Hotel LS11 9AT which is within walking distance of our factory and also has parking.

The easiest way to come to collect your new motorhome is to take a one way car hire from either Enterprise or Europe Car – both have drop off points on Hunslet Road near our factory. By hiring a car one way you will find it easier to bring bedding and anything else you may need for your first overnight stay.

Habitation Service

Your Consort conversion will need a habitation service once a year, this is a safety requirement and gives us the opportunity to completely check all aspects of your conversion, it is also a condition of your 3 year warranty.

Base Vehicle Service

Your base vehicle can be serviced at any main Fiat/Peugeot dealership in Europe during your warranty period and thereafter at any service centre/local garage of your choice.
