£120,000 Camper Van Tour : HYMER Grand Canyon S 4X4 Cross Over

this is one of the coolest motorhomes that i have ever seen this is a hymer grand canyon s crossover and the whole point of this is all about off-grid living so it's got the 4x4 it's got the ray's ground clearance it's got extra lithium power on board it's got solar panels on the roof it's got the extra lights so this is a pretty serious bit of kit but also it's a pretty cool looking piece of kit i mean that just looks fantastic doesn't it so we're going to do a full tour of this one i'm going to tell you what this is all about so we'll start on the outside here this one as you can see he's got the graphics on it i think you can choose to have those or not have those this is the outlet for the heater there's a neat trick with this which is that if you open this window here it shuts the heating down because this is the heater exhaust you don't obviously want fumes going into there cassette for the toilet is here there's a spare cassette on board as well again it's all about that sort of off-grid living give you the extra capacity that is for um 240 volt power so you can plug in if you are in a campsite you can use that if you come right on around to the back i love this the way they've done this in this sort of carbon weave look that looks really really good now as i mentioned there's solar panels on the roof 95 watts worth of solar panels on the roof actually that's a reversing camera up there put the tow bar on this one as well of course and the extra reversing lights so you've got better visibility again if you're off-road that's kind of stuff that you need let me show you in here first of all we will go inside through the main entrance in a second but this is more of the kind of kit that you get on here so there's things like a saw and an axe and a shovel all that kind of stuff that's a table there that will fold out if we open this one then we've got the folding chairs here and in fact if i can release those i can show you how do i do that that looks like it slides upwards there we go let's hook those out for a minute in here is that lithium power source now those are 150 amp hours each so again a lot of power there there's also an inverter on here so you can get your 240 volt power even if you're not plugged in and that one there is a spare cassette for the toilet so you can keep that going if you need to have a second one that's where it is let's close that one back up now this is actually a bed above here this folds down and makes into a bed across i will show you that in a bit more detail when we go inside let's pop these back you can see how brand new this is a lot of this stuff hasn't even been unwrapped yet there we go that's back there a little bit tricky one-handed let's close that one back up we'll take you on around a little bit further there's an awning on this one that's the handle for winching that out let's close that back up based as you can see on a mercedes this one's actually got the v6 engine i think it's 190 horsepower on this one and this is how she looks from this side it's a really cool machine isn't it you can see up there that is the awning that comes out and then this is where we access the vehicle so what we'll do is we'll open this one like so and then we can power a step out with this button here there we go and then we go i'll show you in here just briefly actually because that one is normally your gas bottles in this one the owner has chosen to have an lpg tank fitted under the vehicle so that is filled from there and that then powers obviously the gas system so it just depends how you specify the vehicle if we head on inside we'll head to the front first of all now it's based on a mercedes sprinter so of course you get the mercedes dashboard here these seats as you can see will swivel around it means that you get the mbux navigation and entertainment system so if we power this one up here there we go you can see we've got navigation there we can go into telephone all the usual bits and pieces music all that sort of stuff is all on there let's switch that one back off again for a second system off there we go love these vents on here as well and of course the mercedes steering wheel with the touch pads on it on both sides to control the computers and everything else if we come up a bit from here this one is giving us some of the information on the vehicle so we can look at the leisure battery state that's that one we can look at the fresh water tank the waste tank and we can also look at the vehicle battery as well that's all on there and also the switch for the freshwater system is also controlled from there we come around a little bit further that's that window i mentioned if you open it it shuts down the heating which is rather neat this one's also got wi-fi on it so the router is tucked in behind here there's also tv and dvd that's on a bracket so that can swing out from there you've got the seating here this one's got the seat belts in as well so it'll take four people and it'll sleep for people as well i'll explain that in a bit more detail as we go further on we've got the heater outlets down here we've got a table that folds out like so for eating or for working whatever else you want to do swing on around a little bit further i like the interior woodwork on this this nice light wood that looks very very good up here then this one is giving us the state of charge of the battery as you see we're actually 100 at the minute and that one is giving you the solar power running at 75 watts currently also the inverter control is from there as well another neat thing is if you see these little hooks here this is obviously the kitchen area there is in fact i'll slide that one open that little fella there is an extension you can pop it into there to extend the work surface here or you can pop it up here and extend it out here so that just gives you a bit more space if you need it there's also storage down underneath as well of course and then on the top here you have got the sink and the gas hob let's move on back down a little bit further fridges here really good size fridge actually that's like so the freezer compartment there as well and then that is the heater control but the other thing you've got here then is a power outlet but also tv point here as well so if you wanted to have a tv fitted up here for the bed area then that is what that is for if you come right on back this is what we saw when we opened the back doors you can see the actual back doors are there and if i drop this one down actually before i do that i'm going to show you in here because that is another cool box and in fact there's a power socket in there as well so that can be powered so that if you're going away and you want to take cold food with you picnic or whatever that's all there and ready to go let's drop that one down because that is how you make the bed so that drops into place again a little bit easier when you're not holding a gopro but that's how that works so you've got a double bed across there and there's a curtain as well that pulls across so you can close that right off if you want to if we back up a little bit further this one's got the toilet in so that's in here so it's a cassette toilet you've got a little storage area up in behind here like this and that little fella there a little suction thing is because if we drop this one down to push that again easier with two hands but we're managing there we go that's your sink and that one pulls out then as your shower and that little sucker goes up into here allows you to position the shower wherever you want it there we go again really nicely done with this woodwork and the way they put these feature panels in like that that's really good swing around a bit further that's back into this lounge area and then the final thing really to show you is the pop top because if we look up here you can see we've got this area of headlining which will just by releasing these poppers give us access to the pop top so i'll drop that back here onto the bed for the moment out of the way and then now this again a little bit tricky with only one hand but if we release that like so and then there's a catch on that side there and another one on this side which i need the other hand for how am i going to do this i'm going to hold on to that one and release that one and up she goes how about that now there is a ladder here which you can pull down and that clips in here and that gives you access what i'm going to do is take my shoes off first rather than putting all that in place i'll actually step up onto here and i can show you there's a double bed in there there we go you can see the ladder there two ladders in fact that's interesting and you've got this with opening sections so you get more ventilation or light into here but that gives you sleeping for four two at the back two up here that's absolutely brilliant to drop it back down just pull on that and the whole thing drops back down again which i won't do i'll leave that up with a minute in fact we'll have another look on the outside i can show you how it looks without up but that i think is an exceptionally cool vehicle let's head on out so there we go there she is with the pop top up that's amazing isn't it what a brilliant brilliant looking machine so that's it i normally say thanks to the dealer i'm not going to on this occasion because in fact it was the owner of this one who contacted me and said i just bought this brilliant brilliant campervan you got to come and have a look at it and so the great pleasure i accepted and i think that is quite a remarkable machine let me know what you think of that one in the comments and we will look forward to catching on one of these real soon take care bye you
