Hi All
Just joined the forum tonight. Thought i would make my first post " a what do you think about the starblazer."
We have decided that this the van for use after not really seeing a van we immediately felt "right" with - until we walked into the Stablazer. SO we have decided this is the van we want. We have sorted out some money etc and so the final hurdle is to ask owners what they think of this vehicle.
We would like the garage model but would go for the low locker. I realise there is not too many of this van about....is there?
So what do other owners think. Quality of manufacture etc? Fittings Autocruise after sales.
Any info appreciated.
Many thanks
Phill

We recently narrowed our choice to the either the Starblazer or Autotrail Apache 670. It may be worth having a look at one before your final desicion Pretty much the same layout, both good build quality, choice came down to preference of internal decor. You should be well pleased with either.
Regards

We bought the Starblazer and are very very happy with our purchase, the fixed bed in the back is ideal. We have the low locker version, which we wanted after having a Hymer with a large garage. We used to put the scooter in the garage but could smell the petrol fumes the odd time. With the Starblazer we had a tow bar fitted and a scooter rack which slides into the struts of the tow bar, with lights etc built in. The engine we have is the 2.8 HDI which is plenty powerful enough to pull up any hill we have encountered up to now.
You also have 240v electric water heater, which is very handy whrn you plug into a site saving on the gas. Overall we are very pleased with it and the aftersales service from Christine at Autocruise is second to none...

Thanks for the reply trevor.
I saw the comparison test when they were compared in MMM (or was it practical motorhome). I tend to stay away from autotrail but this is just a personal opinion. A few close motorcaravanning freinds owned them including the club sectertary. They all encountered quite serious problems which autotrail just wouldnt put right. So this had put me off them a bit. The people i refer to no longer ownautotrails and have changed to Knauss and LeVoyager .
Saying that i dont know that much about autocruise as yet other than we like the starblazer but i undertand the biuld quailty is generally better.
Thanks for the reply anyway Trevor and i will let everyone know the final outcome.

Thanks Ray
I di wonder if the eberspacher heater was the combitronic one. Hopefully our van will have this as we spend most of our nights camping on hook up. Anyway its nice to meet some happy blazer owners and i,m glad you are happy with it. Will post a message when we finally take the plunge.
Regard
Phill
