I agree about the CC mag - it's only very occasionally that there's anything to hold my interest. I think it may be 'novelty' in that you look longer and find more in a different layout - like it always takes you longer to shop in a different supermarket and you buy more exotic food - but it's not necessarily better. We get the CC magazine, but I used to avidly read my friends CCC magazine, and always commented that it was the better of the two!
I also agree with Rioja about the reviews - I sometimes wonder what people are looking at when they review vans. Sometimes it's quite obvious that one van is streets ahead of the other, and yet the duffer gets the vote! Wouldn't mind doing a review - as my review would be very different to those usually reported. Our van is a bit of a novelty model - and so difficult to find a replica, but there are things about it that we think should be on every van. To me you can't just 'wander around' a van, and do an objective review, you have to pitch it up, live, eat and sleep in it for at least a week, connect up waste, water, etc., and fill all the cupboards with the stuff you'd normally take - only then can you rate it in terms of storage etc. I'm surprised they don't have a 'standard' (.... all this should fit into a two berth - how easily does it go in......) sort of scenario. I've seen loads of reviews where they say there's enough cupboard space, and yet you couldn't get a box of cornflakes anywhere!!
