I spotted a nice layout on a local dealers website earlier today, I think it was a Sterling Europa but its since vanished off their website as now sold) and wondered if anyone can point me in the direction of others with a similar layout.
Its a 4 berth with nearside fixed bed, corner washroom, offside kitchen which has an area opposite with an overhead microwave with space for a TV below on the worktop. beneath this is the heater and a cupboard. Its like this Lunar Zenith EB this but a higher spec (small oven and fridge in this Lunar) but the layouts the same
Hi again, Savanne. Are you looking locally or further afield? Do I have in the back of my mind that you are now off the idea of a Bordeaux - e.g. there's a Series 7 Bordeaux going in Northants? Here.
You will see a selection of vans in the layout you want HERE. Go backwards for the more expensive and forwards for the less expensive.

Hope this helps after the horror you've just gone through with your last purchase.
Kindest Regards

thanks David, found a nice couple of vans from your link. We are looking for a van with a max towing weight of 1400kgs. Have my eye on a Swift Charisma 535 and like the Sterling Europa 470 which is the same van by the looks of it.

Having trouble with the Sterling - found what looks like a good one but it's in Yorkshire & a private sale? Here I wonder if the warrany might be transferable (mainly for water ingress/damp)
Swift and Sterling are very similar, (its the s ame company) just slightly different colourway inside. We preferred the warmer colour of the wood finish in the swift, its just a personal thing.
From 2006 Swift vans have a six year water ingress warranty which is transferable and there is no fee. Just make sure its done if you buy one (our dealer didnt do ours and should have done!) and obviously do annual dealer service and get your book stamped. We just had to claim under ours which was eventually sorted (dealer probs, not swift themselves).
Having said that, we love our charisma and I dont think its any better or worse quality than any other british build.
We have a Swift Challenger 540 which sounds like the layout you are after - ours is a 2009 model have had it about a year and we love it - no problems touch wood .....
