Interested in buying a 2014 Lunar Quasar 462, anyone got this van and any thoughts on the Truma combi heating particularly with regard to the noise levels.

Thank you

    We bought a Quasar 462 new in 2014, and have been very pleased with it.The truma heating,which we have only used on electric is very good,and can hardly hear the fan at all.With a bit of experimenting with settings found it quite controllable.

    If we use a mix of gas and electric it can be a tad noisy but not so you could hear it over the radio etc.  As the van warms up very quickly we can revert back to elec only and put the fan on Eco then you don't hear it at all.

    We have the larger 564 and are very pleased with it. The Truma warms it up very quickly and at full blast you can hear it but it does not bother us. Once up to temperature it is very quiet but not silent. We have had it on all night and it did not disturb
    us.

    Natasha if you get the opportunity as the dealer to demonstrate it.

    We have a 2015 462 and are in the process of part exchanging it.  Panic not, the only reason for this is we need a bigger caravan.  When we went to choose the bigger replacement our automatic choice was the new transverse bed layout Quasar.  Unfortunately Quasars are slightly narrower and in my opinion the fixed bed layout doesn't work, so we chose another make and layout.

    Our main complaints about the Lunar were down to panel damage that should really have been picked up at the PDI stage and a faulty 12V cooker ignition/fan.  Apart from that it's been a good choice and the Truma boiler and control panel were very good.

    Natasha if you buy one and it has 14" wheels, I can probably help you out with an Al-Ko Secure wheel lock rather than having to buy a brand new one.
