COACHMAN LASER XCEL 850

FIRST LOOK SHOWROOM

Price £46,095 Berths 4 MiRO 1769kg MTPLM 1929kg

ONE OF ONLY two new(ish) models in Coachman’s line-up for 2024, this 8ft-wide van has seen its transverse rear island bed flipped 180°, plus a few other changes.

Pitch and set-up

It isn’t all of the models being 8ft wide and twin-axle that sets the Xcel apart from the standard Laser. It’s also the E&P levelling system included as standard.

Coachman has persisted with double lockers at the front, too, so you’ll never have to jostle with the jockey wheel handle to open the locker door.
