Thie Auto-Sleeper Cotswold has enjoyed a positive reception from press and public alike, and you can immediately tell that it's a very special van.
At first glance, you'd be forgiven for mistaking this low-profile for an overcab coachbuilt, since the Cotswold has quite a high prominence over its cab; that's all part of the bold exterior design, though that sharply kinked bulge really does make the Cotswold stand out, seeming sleek yet imposing all at once.
Step inside the Cotswold and you find a daring meld of the traditional and the modern; the tan upholstery, chunky chrome locker handles and rich brown plywood are all classic Auto-Sleepers cues, but the contrasting-colour locker doors, LED spotlights and the sharply-cut furnishings are all decidedly up-to-the-minute. Overall, the design works very well – it's pleasant on the eye, and the finish on the upholstery is very high-quality, too.
Auto-Sleepers has a longstanding association with Peugeot and so they utilise the Peugeot Boxer base. It acquits itself quite well on small roads, campsites and in car parks.
In the lounge, there is two half-dinette seats and a side-facing seat around your table area. The huge 'Skyview' roof light over the cab provides amazing amounts of natural light. At night, there's effective and stylish LED lighting. Headroom provided by the 'overcab' roofline is generous, too.
The kitchen area features a galley layout kitchen that is well equipped and has lots a of storage space. Finally to the rear of the motorhome there is a large french bed and washroom fitted with everything you need.
