A long day on the road doesn't have to end where the living space starts. Park up, swivel the seats around, and enjoy the open living area. Underneath it all is an LDV Deliver 9, with a 2.0-litre diesel turbo engine and an 8-speed automatic doing the work, so the SRM-22 drives like a van and lives like a home. Blanc White paint keeps the cab looking factory-fresh.

An electric drop-down bed is the reason the SRM-22 boasts more room than 22 feet sounds. Press a button, and the queen bed lowers from the ceiling at night. Press it again in the morning, and it lifts away, giving you more floor space. A 24-inch smart TV on a swing arm and a Fusion stereo mean the footy or a playlist is easy to reach from the lounge or the bed. Once you've lived with a motorhome that does it this way, you won't want to go back.

Cooking on the road shouldn't mean living on sandwiches. The kitchen runs a 2-zone induction cooktop, a convection microwave and the T2208 Thetford fridge, set into a curved bench with slimline cabinet handles. A slimline rangehood clears the steam and cooking smells before they settle, and a diesel-fired Truma system keeps the hot water running, so nobody's left waiting for a warm shower after dinner. There's a built-in water filter too, so you can stay hydrated wherever you’re parked. Wash up in the black sink under a matching tap, and you're ready to settle down for a cosy night looking at the stars.

Plenty of motorhomes this size make you choose between a shower and a toilet, but the SRM-22 doesn't. Behind a mirrored door sits a shower sized to actually turn around in, complete with its own caddy, next to a ceramic Dometic toilet and an oval black vanity sink with a matching black tap. A curved grab handle supports you on uneven campsite ground, wet tiles, and groggy mornings when the coffee still hasn’t kicked in.
