Relish the space

Murvi’s Morello has been around since the late 1980s, garnering praise and winning awards decade after decade. Its base vehicle has moved from Talbot Express through various generation of Fiat Ducato and is today joined by Ford’s Transit, but the concept of a long sofa facing the side door, a rear L-shaped galley and, opposite, an offside corner washroom remains the same.
Murvi design does not stay still, though. The company is constantly tweaking and evolving its models. The Pimento joined the line-up for those wanting a more compact ’van, while the Morocco arrived as an answer to those who prefer single beds.
The Pimento XL, however, uses the same six-metre van as a Morello (rather than the 5.41m Fiat or 5.53m Ford). So, it has the more compact lounge with overhanging wardrobe, but gains space in the kitchen and, crucially, a rear garage. Now, comes this SB version, which it won’t take a genius wordsmith to work out adds single beds to the mix. Developed originally on the Transit (where the lower cab seats allow them to be incorporated into the beds), the Pimento XL SB is now also offered on the Ducato, as seen here.
Company Director, Rex Kneebone, was keen to show me this latest Murvi at the Caravan, Camping & Motorhome Show back in
