Thinking of purchasing 2011 Dorset.
I feel that it's the same as a Symbol but not sure.
There is one thing particularly bothering us...
& that is the bench seat.The frame that pulls across  is made of wood looking abit rickety. Bed frames we have seen have been metal.If anyone has same van can put our minds at rest.thankyou

Hi rosebud.
If you mean the wooden bed/seat slats, we have not had any problems with ours. We use the long seat as a single bed and only pull it out at short way.
The only problem we have is that the long cushion slides across the van when travelling although it has restraints at the back.
One point is that the layout changed around 2013/2014. Ours is a 2013 and the layout is the same as the Symbol with minor changes. After 2014 the fridge is taller and there is a step up into the cab from the hab area.
The toilet cassette is accessed from inside and the gas locker is accessed from the outside!
With the Dorset you get aircon in the cab and hab area.
If you think I can add any more for you let me know. We have had ours 5 years.
