I look at fuel, campsite pitches, storage, maintenance, cramped interiors and the practical pressures of travelling in British weather. I also examine the risks of buying used, including damp, tyres, repairs, warranties and the difference between the vehicle and its living-area systems. For people living in their vehicles, I consider how breakdowns, security, parking and the lack of alternative accommodation can make the consequences much more serious. Finally, I look at resale value, finance, planning permission, driving restrictions and the assumptions buyers should test before committing their savings. I explain why hiring a similar vehicle first and pricing a realistic year can reveal whether the lifestyle genuinely suits you.
