Used ‘van buyer’s guide – Mobilvetta Euroyacht motorhome

If you're searching for used motorhomes for sale but you still want some luxury, we think the Mobilvetta Euroyacht A-class motorhomes are worth considering

Published: October 10, 2014

Luxurious and powerful, the Mobilvetta Euroyacht A-class motorhomes built between 1996 and 2002 should be on your ‘must-see’ list if you’re thinking of buying a deluxe motorhome.

As we do regularly at Practical Motorhome, online and in the magazine , here we are focusing on a great used mainstream motorhome, giving you expert advice so you are able to buy with confidence. We tell you which is the best of the bunch, what to pay and any problems to look out for.

This time, we are looking at the Iveco-based Mobilvetta Euroyacht. If you are looking for the best luxury used motorhomes for sale, make sure you take a look at some pre-owned Euroyachts. 

Mobilvetta Design began making high-end furniture in 1961 – in 1976 it built its first motorhome. Around 20 years later, the company launched the Euroyacht, which – when coupled with the bombproof twin-rear-wheel-drive Iveco chassis-cowl – resulted in one of the best A-class motorhomes ever built. 

These Italian lovelies really were in a class of their own, featuring 
quality cabinetwork with traditional joinery and radius hardwoods. The high standards of equipment levels and practical, new-to-Britain layouts led to them sailing out of the showroom with ease.

The Iveco-based range kicked off with the 6.8m 170 LX and 175 LX models. The 170 has a forward lounge and a midships kitchen ahead of a rear washroom. The 175, meanwhile, has double and single Pullman dinettes and bunk beds – bringing the sleeping-berth count to seven!

Next up was the 7.45m 180 LX, with a similar lounge to the 170. However, the extra length allows a fixed, European-style corner bed ahead of the full-width rear washroom.

The Mobilvetta Design Euroyacht A-class coachbuilt was built in Barberino Val D’Elsa, Tuscany, Italy between 1996 and 2002. The Euroyacht’s overall length is a modest 6.85m to 7.45m (22ft 6in to 24ft 6in).

So, what should you look out for when looking round a used Mobilvetta Euroyacht at a motorhome dealership? Here are Practical Motorhome’s expert tips to help you buy better. Let’s start with the base vehicle. The 2.5- and 2.8-litre mechanical injection TD units are under-stressed and should – given regular maintenance – last 250,000 miles. On early five-speeders, the first gear was so short that many drivers didn’t bother to use it: so do check that it can still be selected easily.

Some back-axle noise is acceptable, but avoid motorhomes with incontinent gearboxes and rear-axles. Almost all examples of the Mobilvetta Euroyacht are left-hand drive vehicles, which might be an advantage if you spend a lot of time on tour abroad in your motorhome. 

The skirts of the Euroyacht can discolour over time, and the gel coat on the moulded GRP front end cap goes flat! Bargain hard if this is the case, but be prepared to put a lot of effort in if you decide that you want to restore it to its former glory.

The foam in the habitation seat squabs was soft even when new, so this is likely to need replacing for maximum seat comfort. 

So, what do we think of these ‘vans? Here are our likes:

• Eye-candy good looks
• Revolutionary (in their day) layouts
• Twin-rear-wheel drive
• Easy chassis upgrade

And our dislikes: 

• Three-piece windscreen has blind spots
• Challenging access to the in-line engine

What’s our pick of the range? Well, unless you have a large family, go for the Movilvetta Euroyacht 180 LX. We think this is the motorhome that offers the most sensuous luxury. 

But what to pay? Mint examples are available from close to £18,000. Those that have been lived-in and need an interior overhaul are sometimes available on eBay from £10,000 (on European plates).

What alternatives are there? You could also try the  Laika Ecovip 200i and 400i Iveco-based A-class models, or the Mobilvetta Icaro. These have the same layouts and are also based on Iveco vans, but have been built as overcab coachbuilt motorhomes. Consider all three if you see them come up at a good price on the secondhand market. 

Need help finding a good motorhome dealer that you can trust? Every year, Practical Motorhome invites readers and website users to rate their motorhome and also their supplying dealer, as part of the Owner Satisfaction Survey . As a result we have fantastic feedback on all the best and worst dealerships out there, as well as reliability ratings for different brands of motorhomes. So take a look at the findings in our 2014 Owner Satisfaction Survey  when searching for motorhomes for sale, to help determine who to buy from and what to buy. The full results were published in the April 2014 issue of Practical Motorhome magazine – back issues are available by calling 08456 777 812, while stocks last.

If you are looking for the best luxury used motorhomes, make sure you take a look at some pre-owned Euroyachts

Euro-yacht??

• Add to quote

Hi,All, Spotted for sale a IVECO-DAILY Euro yacht motorhome , running on a 2.8 diesel engine. Has anyone any experience of this vehicle, I think it is made by an Italian firm because it is by Mobilvette or something like that. Does anyone know what chassis it is? (the vehicle is a 1997 model) Just wondered because we are looking to upgrade our van soon. Kind regards, Dave.......  

Surely you have already answered your own question ??? The chassis is an Iveco Daily Trevor  

euro yacht Maybe i should rephrase my question!! Has anyone been fortunate to have owned this particular vehicle or one like it based on this chassis? if so, some helpful comments would be appreciated. 8O Kind regards Dave...  

I think these were imported by Don Amott at Hilton in Derbyshire. I recall looking at them as they were very stylish and at the higher end of the A-class market. They were well beyond my means. Mobilvetta is a recognised Italian company who made good vans with style. It is/was part of the SEA group which has had a more turbulent history recently - Auto Sleepers was part of the group for a while. Ensure you can get parts for the Mobilvetta part of the vehicle. Most of their dealers seem to be in the south. The Iveco Daily is a workhorse with a very good reputation in the commercial vehicle sector. Check the weight of the van because if it is at the top end of the scale, the old 2.8 will be challenged to make good progress compared to modern motores. Like now, many of the top class under 6,000 kg motorhomes used the chassis. There are numerous Iveco dealers around.  

Hi, Brock, thanks for your reply,the info you provided was very much appreciated. Kind regards, Dave.........  

Do you mean like one of these. http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/MOBILVETTA-EURO-YACHT-175-MOTORHOME-/400105457865 cabby  

Hi we have a euroyacht 1998 LHD the quality is brilliant, the Italian furniture makers did a fab job on design, the bathrooms are large, the kitchen is tucked away so easy to cook, and the kitchen sink and drainer are large, pleanty of room, well thought out motorhome. The pull down bed just tucks up after use, so no bedding to have to keep putting away. Ours is a semi automatic, we have just returned from an Easter break to Spain, its performance is excellent. We will be looking to buy a fully automatic motorhome soon, so give us a call if you want we can send you some pics?

They are a very common sight around mainland Europe. Not owned one, but I had a look round one at a used-MH dealers not long ago. Looked very well built and solidly put together. My understanding of Iveco base is that it's very solid, more or less bulletproof running gear.

Mobilveta Euroyacht 175 LX

By Archiesgrandad March 8, 2016 in Motorhome Matters

• Start new topic

Recommended Posts

Archiesgrandad.

Just spotted a Euroyacht 175 LX for sale on Autoscout 24, and it could be just the van to replace the Pilote.

It's 1998 on an Iveco chassis, but there is no indication of the gross weight. Could one of you guys take a look through your back copies etc to see if you can work out whether or not it might be under 3.5 tonnes. I've tried to look it up on the internet, but I'm hopeless at it, and I need to know before I start chasing around France , talking to foreigners etc.

Many thanks

There was a 3.5 GVW of the daily back then but Looking up a 98 MMM buyers guide No GVW listed only payload. Euroyacht came in three sizes

140- 487kg payload probably on the 3500 kg GVW chassis.

170- 1130kg PL probably on the 4000kg GVW

180- 1100kg PL probably on the 4000kg GVW.

Allowing for the usual makers optimism on ULW I doubt the 140 has much payload and the bigger ones are too big.

Solwaybuggier

Found an old advert from a Dutch website which suggests a GVW of 3500 kg -

http://www.speurders.nl/overzicht/caravans-en-kamperen/campers-overige-merken/mobilvetta-euro-yacht-175-camper-135231441.html

Many thanks guys, that is exactly what I hoped for, I will see how we get on.

The Euroyacht was built on two different base vehicles . the 140 gvw 3500kg on a FWD Ducato

The 170 175 180 on the RWD Iveco daily chassis with gvw 4000kg.

The rear wheels are the giveaway.

The Ducato has a single wheel at the back. Dished outwards like the front

The Iveco rear axle has twin wheels bolted back to back and the outer has a deep inward dish that can be seen in photographs.

This 2014 discussion relating to a 1998 Euroyacht may be of interest

http://forums.outandaboutlive.co.uk/forums/Motorhomes/Motorhome-Matters/Axle-weights-/36008/

It seems likely that all Euroyacht 170/175 motorhomes left the Mobilvetta factory with a maximum overall weight of 3500kg, and as the motorhome you mention is being sold in France

http://www.truckscout24.com/vehicle-details/Caravans-Campers-Mobilvetta-Euroyacht-175-LX-Semi-Integrated/16158329/2

it’s a racing certainty that this vehicle will not have been uprated beyond 3500kg.

These motorhomes are based on a hefty Iveco twinned-rear-wheel ‘truck’ chassis with little regard to constructional weight-saving and I’d be extremely wary of potential payload issues at the 3500kg limit.

There’a a buyer’s guide here

http://www.practicalmotorhome.com/advice/30495-used-van-buyers-guide-mobilvetta-euroyacht-motorhome

I own exactly that model on an Iveco chassis 2.8TD & it is plated @ 3500 GVW ;-) Must add to that it is an excellent vehicle. Brilliant layout, very comfortable in all aspects.

It’s perhaps worth mentioning that when your 3500kg GVW Euroyacht was MOT-tested its weight was measured at 3486kg, leaving just 14kg of extra ‘payload’ available.

It’s unlikely that the weight of the Euroyacht in the French advert will differ significantly from your vehicle’s, which means that AGD would need to be ultra careful about loading it or ignore the probability that it’s going to exceed the 3500kg maximum in normal use.

Although SVTech advised you that your motorhome’s 3500kg weight-limit could be uprated to 3850kg, the chances of this approach being authorised in France are minimal as the French rules regarding uprating are far stricter than the UK’s. So, even if AGD has an ‘over 3500kg’ driving-licence entitlement, taking a French-registered 3500kg Euroyacht beyond that weight limit will almost certainly be a non-starter.

If the first line figure of 14kg effective payload is correct just the driver boarding would put it well overweight..

George Collings - 2016-03-11 11:30 PM   If the first line figure of 14kg effective payload is correct just the driver boarding would put it well overweight..  

That’s what was said...

I have a 1996 copy of “Which Motorcaravan” magazine and the Mobilvetta entry in the buyer’s gude listing indicated that Euroyacht 170 and 190 models were then being marketed in the UK (in LHD) by Don Amott. The base vehicle was said to be an Iveco 40.12 and the payload was quoted as 1130kg for the 170 and 1100kg for the 190. However, what firm evidence there is points to Iveco-based Euroyachts marketed in the late-90s being plated at 3500kg, which - given the vehicle’s specification - would make a large usable payload very doubtful.

It’s probable that the Euroyacht 175 in the AutoScout24 advert is plated at 3500kg and - if that’s so - there’s every reason to think it will have been operated at that weight since 1998. French motorcaravanners (being generally restricted to driving up-to-3500kg camping-cars and liking the idea of big ones) don’t appear to be too fussed about driving overweight motorhomes, whereas UK motorcaravanners seem more concerned about doing this.

It should be straightforward enough for AGD to confirm the advertised Euroyacht’s maximum gross weight, but less easy to establish the payload reliably without actually weighing the vehicle. As he has had so much bureaucratic pain over registering his RHD Pilote in France, it would be sensible that he be aware at this stage of possible payload limitations with the Euroyacht and that the UK procedure of gaining extra payload by chassis ‘uprating’ is unlikely to be practicable in France.

I would like to thank everyone for such a fantastic response, I do like the look of the Euroyacht, but the weight problem bothers me, I only have the 3.5 tonne licence now, so I think I will wait until after I have returned the Pilote to the UK and sorted that out. What an incredible bunch you really are, many thanks.

Hi guys n gals, do any of you have the full width brush type mud flaps fitted to the rear of your Moho to prevent mud etc from covering whatever you are towing, like a toad ? Are they effective? What the hell do I search for on internet? Kathryn is getting a new Toyota Aygo X in September, her current white Aygo was mud brown by the time we got back to Dieppe a couple of weeks ago. TIA!

Can of worms opened with the legalities of toading in France and Spain! Have a look for RV rear mud guards E bay Fiamma Rear Mud Flap from 2007 for Caravan/Motorhomes or RV Mudflaps on Amazon or outdoorbits  

• Tuesday at 8:45 AM

Absolutely NOT interested in toad can of worms! Done it twice now, last year to Loire valley, this year to Il de Re and had no grief whatsoever, passed loads of gendarmes too! There is a french company making A frames now….. Thanks for your reply, will have a look now. Russ  

• Tuesday at 8:47 AM

I have seen toads arriving on sites with a cover over the front of the car similar to caravans. Maybe that would be easier than fitting the brush guards.

I'm pretty sure the main advantage of the brush type is reducing spray for vehicles behind rather than mud although I suppose the two go together to some extent. As others have said is it legal or would you be better with a trailer I suppose if it sits higher it wouldn't get as dirty
