RV REVIEW
PURE GOLDSTREAM
The interior fitout is pure Goldstream . Goldstream uses 15mm ply imported from Europe for its furniture , which is CNCrouted to precise tolerances . It ’ s unequivocally a quality finish .
The layout , however , is pretty conventional . It incorporates a north-south bed in the front , a cafe dinette on the nearside , kitchen on the offside , and a decent bathroom in the rear . There are , however , a few new touches found in this van for 2024 . One of these is the bathroom overhead cabinetry , which returns above the toilet . By the way , Mitch opted for a Nature ’ s Head composting toilet rather than the standard cassette variety .
Now , this van has the juice to run a compressor fridge too , but out of personal preference Mitch opted for a 188L absorption unit . Having gas as a back-up just makes sense , in his opinion . And on that subject , he opted for a Truma gas heater rather than a diesel unit , which is fitted under the lift-up bed base . This is where you ’ ll also find the BMPRO gear , which also includes the excellent OdysseyLink system , along with the Projecta inverter . I loved that Goldstream had section off the heater , which will help to prevent damage given that this space would be used to store all kinds of stuff .
