I wanted one although the Monty C, and Elite in Banbury have two for sale I think, or did at around 27k.

I very much like the Renault base more so from what I have read on here. I think they are best descibed as built for functionality inside with robust fittings, well laid out and all hand built I understand.

But they are not decorated as nicely as other makes and therefore against a Trigano or the one I ended up with, a Possl, they may look a little drab.

But had it not been for the missus, I would have had one although I am more than satified with what I ended up as this was in our price range and there was a big difference between 27k and 19.5k but of course these Devons are less than a year old.

dealers cannot get new ones until end 2006 as they cannot build them fast enough.

I would compare them first with an Adria Twin.

Excellent review on here just remembered and can be found at

The current Renault Master has the dash mounted gearchange but you mentioned being interested in a 2001 model which I *think* has the 'long wand' sticking out of the floor and I have read that, apart from getting in the way, is not a very precise change. I doubt though that it could be as bad as the one in my old RM.

ps. i was searching 'Vauxhaul Movano' ( same thing as Renault Master )and found a couple of road tests. I think they were 'Which Van' magazine.
One the latest model, and one a 'long gearstick' one. Do a 'google' and you should find things about the van, if not the conversion.
