NEW AIRSTREAM BAMBI | European Motor News

Too bad they can't seem to incorporate some of the features of the Euro models to the domestics since they appear to all be built here....

Here is a link to the Airstream UK site:

Thanks for that. And it's being debuted in my wife's hometown!

I like some of those floorplans. I'm still bugged though that older Caravels were able to fit two separate sleeping areas - a front and side gaucho - into the same size trailer as that new Bambi.

But I'm really digging a 684 - free-standing "queen" bed at 3880 lbs dry....

Did I read that right, they have hot water heat?

So it's the Safari Sport 17" floor plan with bath in a Euro model?

That's one cute little guy, thanks

Alde*3010 Compact HE Combi Boilers - Alde UK
I quote..
"The Alde 3010 Compact high efficiency combi boiler is ideal for central heating systems in boats, motorhomes, caravans and portable cabins. It provides 7.5 kW of heat, through up to 14 m of convector. The boiler gives you central heating that is clean, efficient, silent, reliable, and versatile, powered by LPG and/or 230 V electricity. With its multi-stage burner, the boiler only uses as much energy as needed to heat the living space, eliminating waste.
All system connections are on one side, allowing the unit to be installed in the smallest of spaces, and the flexible flue means you can position the boiler and terminal where you want. The control panel cable has moulded quick connectors making the job of installing the boiler easier and safer. Why not invest in the additional engine heat exchanger, so you can transfer engine heat into your central heating system while on the move, making use of all that free energy!
The Alde 3010 Compact HE combi boiler comes with optional 230 V pump, for super-fast heating from cold with no battery drain, and the optional installation kit containing: control panel, control panel cable (8.5 m), side or roof flue terminal, outlet exhaust hose, inlet air hose, expansion tank, expansion tank cover, non-return valve, safety drain valve, circulation pump.
