A MID SIZE MOTORHOME FOR UP TO 4 PEOPLE WITH AN AUTOMATIC GEARBOX
Rooster is our automatic 2024 Roller Team Zefiro 665. It's the same size as the manual Goose, and identical on most ways, except the rear bed (please see below).
Based on the new facelifted Transit, at 6.4m long this is a mid-sized van offering generous space and a large garage, without being too unwieldy to drive and manoeuvre. Designed for families, sharing friends or couples just wanting the extra space a motorhome offers, Rooster has 4 travelling seats, a fixed double bed at the back, and an electric drop-down double bed over the dining area.
There is a comfortable shower room with basin and WC, a kitchen with oven and 3-ring gas hob, a large fridge/freezer, heating, built-in window blinds and a large locker space ('garage') designed to take several bikes - good if you're concerned about the security risk of them being on a rear rack.
Rooster differs from Goose in the rear bed format - with Goose, there is a door to access the garage from inside. This is useful if you're taking dogs as they can sleep in the garage with the access door open; it also means you can get to your belongings without going outside. Rooster doesn't offer internal access to the garage, but you can lower the bed to make it easier to access, and to give a lot more headroom. The garage remains large, but not high enough to take adult bikes (a bike rack can be added). With the bed in the higher position it's 1.3m from the floor and the ladder has 5 steps; in the lower position it's 0.9m from the floor and the ladder has 3 steps.
You can at additional charge rent a drive-away side awning tent. It's a practical no-nonsense 3m by 3m pole tent which attached to the side of the van so you can walk straight out through the side door into the tent without going outside. When you leave the camp site just zip it up and drive away (ensuring nothing of value is inside, of course). An additional charge of £15 per night applies.
If you need to accommodate 5 people, or would like the privacy of a bedroom with a proper door, or want a shower that's separate from the toilet, please take a look at Rooster.

GOOD FOR: good space in a vehicle that's not too long; being independent from camp sites (solar panel); dogs (plenty of floor space); people wanting an oven / large fridge; cyclists (option of bike rack for 4, but 2-3 can fit in the garage); two beds that don't need making up each day; a very large garage
NOT GOOD FOR: going down narrow lanes
