Answers: How does the new MAN campervan handle on its first trip to the Lake District?

What it concludes

• Hardknott Pass is one of the UK's most notorious roads and provided a severe test for the campervan.
• The heater duct is positioned right where you sit, making feet feel comfortably warm.
• The Trelino composting toilet works well with a good separation system and sizing.
• The bed sliding mechanism is flawed because the mattress slides forward and drops off the rail when moving on slopes.
• Having the bed out barely obstructs counter space or access to the van interior.
