The second motorhome was perfect, easy to drive, even on the steepest, unsurfaced mountain roads, and with snow chains had we needed them, and just as happy on fast motorways. It drove so much like a car that we were even overtaking some cars on the mountain roads occasionally. All in all a very pleasant experience and highly recommended. We had four weeks and were sad to have to give it back.
Size Does Matter
Of course size matters when it comes to motorhomes. We are big believers in having room to move and space to escape in. Our Base Jumper range boxes well above its weight when it comes to what’s important in a motorhome. Innovation comes to life through functional design, giving you room to live.
The Base Jumper S2 is built on the award winning Fiat Ducato base and our Base Jumper L4, on Volkswagen Crafter 35 chassis. One of the reasons we have chosen those chassis to build on is due to width. They are both very wide bases and because we think space is so important, we widened our Base Jumper S2 even more - to let you fully stretch out.
Claims about motorhome size can often be misleading and in many cases misinterpreted. All our Base Jumper models are incredibly spacious from inside yet, small enough to perfom well on NZ's rugged terrain. Both the Base Jumper S2 and L4 are sleek and fast though, they do not comprimise any living space due to innovative
design. You’ll be surprised to know that the Base Jumper S2's interior space is comparable to the majority of 4 and 6 berth motorhomes. As for the Base Jumper L4, you will be thankfull it doesn't compare to any other vehicle in it's class...
The Base Jumper designers had 3 key elements at the forefront of their minds - this is what sets us apart from the crowd:
- Unencumbered floor area
- Usable seating
- Accessible storage
According to past Wilderness travellers who have sung our praises on Rankers, it's easy to get a little more space out of your holiday with the Wilderness Base Jumper.
