I don't think I can ever remember anyone ruining a simple classic like cheese on toast in quite such a comprehensive fashion...

yes..
Westys have great a finish quality throughout, the rest is ergonomics, appliances and furniture.
Holdsworth villa, Autosleeper, auto homes, have a similar quality but not throughout

yes some do, but the more discerning camper would have ordered what he wanted not have the luxuries rammed down his throat. if your going to naked toast of a morning you need a grill not a pound shop thingamajig. also you need a passenger with nerves of steel as you attempt to over take a milk float and roundabouts will have the air turning blue. 2 of the faults with a westie, im off for google to find the other one

Another vote for a Westy. Build quality can't be argued with as it has stood the test of time. Layout and storage is all you could ask for. Lack of grill annoying for some. Things like underslung has tank provide enough storage for a years cooking plus ability to hook up other appliances. If you're happy driving a lhd then you'll be a happy camper.
