RV REVIEW In all honesty, there was very little that I didn’t like about the interior of this motorhome. It’s smart. It’s stylish. And the layout is logical, with very few compromises. cassette toilet, and a nearside vanity unit with a porcelain sink. The vanity also houses the optional top-loader washing machine beneath the bench. For privacy, the bathroom is separated from the main living quarters by a solid door. Among the other features, the Birdsville gets a Dometic reverse-cycle air-conditioner, 12V and 240V and USB points throughout, a four-burner cooktop and griller in the kitchen and, adding to the overall visual appeal, are handle-free overhead lockers. The drawers have a soft-close function, too. SUMMING UP Cab-chassis motorhomes typically offer a decent payload capacity, and the Birdsville is no different. With its Gross Vehicle Mass of 4400kg, you can load the motorhome up with 784kg worth of water, gas, people, food and gear, though you’d have to expect the Ducato to be a little slower ascending steep hills when loaded to the hilt. The MY19 C class Birdsville appears to be a well- specced motorhome for its price point. It’s also well finished off, inside and out, with a choice of interior colours and external decals. It should happily suit up to four people for long hauls around the country. gorv.com.au 21
