We are looking at going from a caravan to a motorhome to enable us to get around the uk coast visiting every little coast village and harbour on the way.

Anyone any experiance with or problems with either the Swift Rio, Wildax Constallation or MotoTrek EB?

    A well known motorhome journalist visited every seaview site in Scotland using a Fifer S from ENC. Worth a look if you can wait until 2017 or buy a used one. (Yes I know that's not what you asked !)

    to do the exploring bit, any small slim coachbuilt (eg Swift Rio, Hymer Exsis, Van, Bursner Travel Van etc, etc) or PVC (autocruise, autosleeper, autotrail, or any continental manufacturer) will negotiate small, narrow lanes easily enough....

    however, only you can decide which of the myriad layouts will suit......some have great storage (the continentals under a fixed rear bed) som are hopeless but have larger lounges...some have great washrooms, some are a waste of space.....

    there are scores of PVCs and what suits me, might not suit you...

    Wild Ax currently has the best reputation out of the three you mentioned. ENC build lovely vans and would be on my shopping list.

    You might want to look at this guide to Frank's coastal tour which many motorhomers have taken to heart.
