RV REVIEW
The Concept Ascot 640 also comes with an actual front boot ! I haven ’ t seen one of those in a while ! Further , the van includes a tunnel boot . External storage options on this van are therefore excellent . There ’ s yet another storage locker on the nearside , towards the rear .
Now , this van is not an offroader in any sense . It rides on rollerrocker beam axle suspension with a grey water tank and fresh water tank mounted fore and aft of the axle group .
Nearside features of the van include an entertainment locker complete with a TV mounting point and the relevant 12V and antenna connection points . There ’ s a full-length roll-out awning with just enough clearance between the leading awning arm and front window to allow you to open the window without removing the awning arm first – not always a given on some Australian caravans .
Anti-insect lights , Fusion speakers , a reversing camera and a spare wheel mounted to the rear bumper are all part of the package too .
With its polyurethane frame clad in grey composite aluminium , the Concept Ascot still somehow looks like a traditional caravan . It isn ’ t over the top in appearance , nor is it underwhelming . There ’ s something good and honest about its appearance .
