A versatile six-seater campervan for daily use and touring.
The Camper King Santorini is a versatile campervan built on the Volkswagen Transporter chassis, designed to function as both a six-seater MPV and a four-berth tourer. It features a side kitchen, a crash-tested three-seater rear bed, and an elevating pop-top roof within a compact 4.9m footprint.
- Six-seater MPV layout with three front and three rear belted seats.
- M1 pull-tested three-seater rear rock and roll bed system.
- Gas-strut elevating pop-top roof for additional headroom and berths.
- Side kitchen featuring an integrated hob, sink, and fridge or wine cooler.
- Compact 4.9m length suitable for use as a daily driver.
Worth knowing: The wider three-seater rear bed reduces the available width for kitchen cabinetry. Storage capacity is reduced when travelling with the full six-person occupancy. Payload is limited to 550kg, which must account for all passengers and equipment.

Compare the Camper King Santorini with similar models
| Model | Berths | Maximum weight | Length | Typical price |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Camper King Santorini | 4 | 3000 kg | 4.90 m | £45,000 to £75,000 |
| Panama P\57 | 4 | 3000 kg | 4.97 m | £48,000 to £62,000 |
| Volkswagen T6.1 SPARTAN | 4 | 3000 kg | 4.90 m | £45,000 to £75,000 |
The Camper King Santorini occupies a specific niche by offering six belted seats within a 4.9m Volkswagen Transporter conversion, a feature less common than the standard four or five-seat layouts found in the Panama P\50+ or Westfalia Kepler. While it shares the 3000kg MTPLM common to this class, the Santorini prioritises passenger capacity, which necessitates a more compact kitchen compared to models with narrower two-seater rear beds. It remains a balanced choice for those who must reconcile daily MPV requirements with weekend camping needs.
Worth knowing: Specifications and prices can vary by model year, trim and optional equipment.
Ownership and Maintenance Tips
- Utilise the 240V external hook-up whenever possible to preserve the leisure battery.
- Monitor the 4.9m length and 2.1m height when entering restricted car parks.
- Regularly check the M1 pull-tested bed fixings for security.
Common mistakes to avoid
- Exceeding the 550kg payload when carrying six adult passengers and full water tanks.
- Obstructing the floor space required for the wider three-seater bed deployment.
Worth knowing: Always verify the specific model year specifications as equipment can vary. Ensure the leisure battery is maintained during periods of inactivity.
