Xplore CV X8 - Practical Motorhome

5 days ago | practicalmotorhome.com | Peter Baber

A couple of years ago, when EHG UK announced that it was giving its Xplore caravan brand a major upgrade, it also revealed plans to bring out the first-ever Xplore campervan. Thanks partly to the fallout from lockdown, it took a while to arrive. The four-berth, rear-lounge Xplore CV X8 was launched at the start of the 2025 season, and has now been joined by two more models, the three-berth CV X5, with more storage at the back, and the CV X9, like the X5 but with a pop-top roof like the X8.
I'm the editor of Practical Motorhome and I recently bought a pre-owned campervan

The 2017 model year was an interesting one for Swift. Before then, it offered a range of panel van conversions under the Autocruise name, including the Rhythm, the Forte and – my favourite – the rear-lounge, side-kitchen Accent. However, for that season Swift came up with a new concept for its panel van range – also under the Autocruise moniker, but with a stripped-back style that took things right back to basics.

The best motorhome provides ‘van owners with a great spec, a comfortable layout, and an excellent base for making plenty of memories. However, the many models on the market can make it feel like a daunting prospect to find the one for you.

Vmoto Stash - Practical Motorhome

2 weeks ago | practicalmotorhome.com | David Motton

Electric motorbikes are a niche market at the moment. Just 3.4% of powered two-wheelers sold in Britain during 2024 were electric – but Vmoto claims a bigger slice of this modest pie than anyone else. The Vmoto Stash is the brand’s range-topping model. Its main role is commuting, but taking this motorbike on a motorhome can also makes sense for motorhome owners looking for a green and fun way to make short trips on tour.

The best thing about owning a motorhome has to be the places it can take you and the adventures you can enjoy – simply hit the road and, before you know it, you’re in the great outdoors. But once you’re pitched up, things become a little bit more tricky: if you want to head out you’ll need to get behind the wheel again, which means packing up your motorhome. What’s more, narrow country roads can put you off from visiting more remote areas.

Swift’s Trekker is the rugged end of its campervan offering – a set of three vehicles aimed at those who take their adventures seriously, as opposed to the Monza (more of a mainstream pop-top camper) and the Carrera (van conversions for those who who aren’t so keen in going off-road). The Trekker X is one of two models in the Trekker range that features a rising-roof, the other simply named Trekker.
