Looking at having a new 25 (internal) footer built & leaning towards Evernew to build it as i never read or heard any bad reports on them

We currenty have a 23 footer but want the extra length to install a combination washer dryer (we live in the van full time)

Wondering if any forum members have any experience with Evernew vans

Any thoughts would be appreciated

Regards Don

HI Donk,

I have a November 1995 build Evernew (23 ft) and find it an excellent van. They were well built then and presume they still are.
Ours has a GVM of 2700 kg so a 25 ft will probably be higher. So check with manufacturer to see if your tow vwhicle will be adequate. I bought mine second hand and will one day take it to be weighed - it has solar panels on roof, roll out awning, rack on rear with two spares plus 2 jerry cans, plus is fitted with automated hydraulic legs system - so I am not sure if mine as at max GVM even before personal belongings etc.

It is very stable to tow even at 100 kph but with wheels set towards rear of van there is a lot of weight on towball (probably 150 kg or more). It is probably best to have rear suspension upgraded if you haven't done so already.

I don't think you would be disapppinted with an Evernew.
Congratulations on chosing probably what is one of the best allround road vans built in Australia in my opinion,
Happy traveling,
Cheers,
Glen
