Just a few improvements worth noting from s FB group member following his visit to NEC..


1.  Whale heating system not Truma. Located under floor leaving more storage space.


2. Now use Wide bore waste pipes for efficient waste drainage.


3. Fresh and waste tanks now 102 litres and 71 litres.


4. Due to “complaints” , Peugeot have gone back to fitting the original rear door release buttons to fully open them. 


5. Again “due to complaints” Peugeot have gone back to fitting the luxury padded leather wheel.


6. Engine is now 165bhp

[size=62]As said these are not my observations and there are bound to be  more but they certainly make sense.[/size]

Interesting. up!

The Fiat has also got a power boost too, it is now 140 or 160bhp. (auto gearbox).

I wonder if Peugeot will also "respond to complaints" about the 20 minute auto shut off of the radio.

I spotted 2020 models of a Kingham and a Warwick XL on Nick Whale's website yesterday.  Their photography is a lot better than on AS's website so you can see more details.  Not a fan of the new decals, particularly the raised panels above the windscreen that have been shaded dark.  Saw a few German vans at the Düsseldorf show with this bushy eyebrow treatment and didn't find it a good look.

Even less enthused at the price of these new models .... £62,995.  Maybe this includes the new "luxury tax" but even so, Ouch!

Good question. Can the new luxury tax be included in the retail price or are the prices now 'on the road' prices?
