Our van is a 2001 Fleurette Tamaris 31T, it's a pop-top so is a lower line for towing & helps with storage too.Ours weighs in at 750kg fully laden. Gives a payload of around 130kg, so the van is around 620kg.
We have a Truma heater which gives us running hot & cold water to the sink & the wash basin, we have a built in cassette Thetford loo. There is a 2 ring hob but no grill,but the fridge is larger than those with a grill, we get over this by taking a small toaster & I have a Remoska which is great for all sorts of cooking(several threads on here about these).
It's a two berth but we have slept our young grand daughter in the van by using the bunks as two singles & have her sleep between us on the floor on the two backrest cushions the fit exactly in the gap!
We bought this van as a replacement for a brand new folding camper that we thought would be all we wanted, but we were so disappointed with all the work involved that we traded it in a year later for our Fleurette, we so wish we had bought it in the first place, but hey-ho, we all make mistakes!
We just love this van, the newer models are now called Trigano Silver, they are lovely but a bit out of our price range at the moment, so I shall continue to lust after them from afar!
Have a look at this web site,www.campersandleisure.co.uk,(sorry, can't get the link to work),this is where we bought our van, it's a long way from you but the web site will give you a lot of info about these vans.
Good luck with your hunting!
