Motorcaravan MagazineMotorcaravan May - £2.99

The 'Explore' section has the usual snippets of news and product launches, and also includes readers letters.

After the Letters section comes 'Touring' which describes a suggested route around the coast of Cornwall. The section includes touring the Vale of the White Horse in Oxfordshire, Scotland's single track roads, Brittany, and the River Wye.

The 'Quirky Britain' series continues, the idea is to suggest some curious or odd places for a short break or weekend trip. This month the theme is trams, and includes tram museums and working examples.

This month's Reader Tests are on: Teva Aravallis trainers, Miracle DryWash, Self-Inflating key buoy, Security sensor alarm.

Motorhomes on test are the Moncayo Mediterrano, a live-in test of the McLouis Tandy 672 and a long-term test of Bilbo's Kompak. There are in-brief looks at some new models: Romahome R40 and Bravia Swan.
A Reader Team review of a T25 Beckenham Enterprise is followed by a look at second hand fixed-bed coachbuilts: 2004 Elnagh Marlin 65G; 2005 Ci Carioca 644; 2003 Rapido Le Randonneur.

In the 'Know-how' section there are readers questions, with answers from the team. John Wickersham provides an insight into motorhome floor construction and also looks at a selection of new products that caught his eye at the February NEC show. The 'job for the weekend' is making up an essential kit for touring abroad.

Practical Motorhome - June - £3.40

Practical Travel starts off the magazine this month with a trip to Dorset.

In the Practical Community section we have a collection of readers letters & emails, with responses, plus the monthly diaries from the 'reader team'.

Practical Travel also includes a news and information section, a look at 'small sites' which includes the British CS & CL 5 van sites, plus a brief introduction to European stopovers and wild camping.

The magazine has a 'wildlife' theme this month, with 'Readers Travels' articles on wild camping in Galway and Connemara; whale and dolphin watching on the Moray Firth; the Black Forest and Bavarian Alps. A 'Seasonal spotlight' feature lists a season by season selection of places to see 'nature at its best' in the UK. The 'Snail Trail' updates continue, this month it's Northumbria and Kent.

Diamond Dave's 'Practical Workshop' has technical tips and projects, and the DIY Surgery has answers to readers' queries.

Also in the section there's a comparative report on small inverters.

Next is a main feature on Power. Sadly the writer serves only to confuse what should be a relatively simple concept by using the nonexistent units of 'wattage per hour' and 'watts per day'. There is no such thing!
What is probably meant is 'watt-hours'. A watt-hour is simply how many watts times how many hours that is used for. This is what most people mean when they say "watts per day". If a light uses 10 watts, and it is on for 9 hours, that is 90 watt-hours. Similarly if a generator supplies 1600 watts for 2.5 hours, that is 4000 watt-hours.

There's what looks like a new regular feature on refurbishing a cheap used camper.

'Practical Buying & Owning ' brings motorhome tests, reviews and news together and includes a review of the Lunar Roadstar 900 and the Autocruise Tempo.

This month's live-in test is on the TEC Freetec 718Ti, and the 'Big Group Test' is on rear lounge budget vans: Elddis Autoquest 140; Lunar Moonstar 580; Swift Sundance 590RL.

'Secondhand Review' looks at a couple of secondhand vans for around £10,000: Autohomes Avalon and Auto-Sleeper Trooper.

A new 'Sovereign Awards' starts this month, this time on secondhand motorhomes and supplying dealers. You can provide your feedback to the magazine on the form provided or through their website (see below).

A couple of readers report on previous vans they've owned.

'Running Report' features the latest happenings to the staff Bürstner Argos A 747 G.
