About the Coachman Laser 480 Xtra
The Coachman Laser 480 Xtra redefines luxury two-berth caravanning, offering an expansive and sophisticated experience for couples. Its standout feature is the 8ft wide-body chassis, which transforms the traditional two-berth layout into an exceptionally spacious living environment, often rivalling much larger twin-axle models. This extra width creates an airy feel, particularly in the palatial front lounge, which serves as a comfortable social hub and a generous sleeping area. Throughout the caravan, you'll find high-end woodwork and bespoke soft furnishings, showcasing exemplary British craftsmanship.
Designed for year-round touring, the 480 Xtra boasts the Alde 24-hour programmable heating system, ensuring comfort in all seasons. The boutique-style rear washroom provides a genuine home-from-home feel, while the impressive kitchen features domestic-grade appliances and clever storage, perfect for extended trips. This model expertly blends the prestige of the Laser range with the practical manoeuvrability of a single-axle, making it an outstanding choice for discerning caravanners seeking luxury without compromise.

Practical ownership tips

Before you buy
Request a habitation check or damp survey for any used caravan. Check the service history, tyre age, chassis condition, and whether the CRIS registration matches the seller. Specifications vary by year and trim level.
What defines the Coachman Laser 480 Xtra?
The Coachman Laser 480 Xtra is a premium 8ft wide-body two-berth caravan built on a single axle. Measuring 6.89m in length, it features a front lounge, a domestic-grade kitchen, and a luxury end washroom. Designed for year-round use with Alde heating, it offers a spacious interior layout typically found in larger twin-axle models while maintaining a 1640kg MTPLM.
- 8ft wide-body Xtra chassis providing increased internal living volume.
- Alde 24-hour programmable radiator heating and hot water system.
- Full-width end washroom featuring a boutique shower cubicle.
- Kitchen equipped with a Thetford K1500 dual-fuel hob, oven, and separate grill.
- Single-axle configuration with a 1640kg MTPLM.
Worth knowing: The 2.44m width requires careful navigation on narrow roads. A 156kg payload may be restrictive for those carrying heavy equipment. The 1640kg MTPLM necessitates a substantial tow vehicle for a two-berth caravan.
Buying a Coachman Laser 480 Xtra
Who it suits
- • Couples seeking a spacious two-berth layout without moving to a twin-axle caravan.
- • Year-round tourers who require the Alde 24-hour programmable heating system.
- • Owners of large tow cars who prioritise internal width and living volume.
Reasons to consider it
- • It offers an 8ft wide chassis, providing more internal space than standard 7ft 6in models.
- • High-specification kitchen with domestic-grade appliances including a dual-fuel hob.
- • Single-axle manoeuvrability combined with flagship Laser range luxury finishes.
What to check
- • Verify the compatibility of your tow car with the 1640kg MTPLM.
- • Confirm if the E&P Self-Levelling system is fitted or if the chassis is just compatible.
- • Check the operation of the Pioneer audio system and Bluetooth connectivity.
- • Inspect the condition of the bespoke soft furnishings and high-end woodwork.
Worth knowing: The 8ft width is wider than standard caravans and may affect access to some smaller pitches or lanes. Payload is limited to 156kg, which must cover all personal effects and optional extras.
Compare the Coachman Laser 480 Xtra with similar models
| Model | Berths | MTPLM | Length | Typical price |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Coachman Laser 480 Xtra | 2 | 1640 kg | 6.89 m | £29,000 to £42,000 |
| Swift Elegance 480 | 2 | 1523 kg | 6.66 m | £17,500 to £38,000 |
| Bailey Unicorn Deluxe Seville | 2 | 1424 kg | 6.47 m | £18,500 to £33,900 |
The Coachman Laser 480 Xtra sits at the top of the two-berth market with a price range of 29000 to 42000. While alternatives like the Bailey Unicorn Seville or Swift Elegance 480 offer similar two-berth end-washroom layouts, the Coachman distinguishes itself with its 2.44m width and 1640kg MTPLM. It is heavier and wider than the Bailey Unicorn Merida (1400kg), trading ease of towing for significant internal volume. The choice between these models depends on whether the buyer prioritises the extra living space of the 8ft Xtra chassis over the lower weight and narrower dimensions of its competitors.
Worth knowing: Specifications and prices can vary by model year, trim and optional equipment.
Ownership and Maintenance Tips
- Utilise the Whale external gas BBQ point and 230v socket to extend living space outdoors.
- Regularly check the seals on the boutique shower cubicle in the end washroom.
- Test the Pioneer audio system connectivity periodically to ensure software compatibility.
Common mistakes to avoid
- • Underestimating the 2.44m width when turning into tight driveways or site entrances.
- • Forgetting to program the Alde system for 24-hour cycles during winter storage.
Worth knowing: Ensure the 2.65m height is accounted for when planning routes under low bridges. The 156kg payload must be managed carefully to avoid exceeding the 1640kg MTPLM.
Alternatives to the Coachman Laser 480 Xtra
The Swift Elegance 480 offers a shorter 6.66m length for those who find the 6.89m Laser 480 Xtra too long for their storage or towing needs.
Bailey Unicorn Deluxe SevilleWith an MTPLM of 1424kg, the Bailey Unicorn Deluxe Seville is significantly lighter than the 1640kg Coachman, suiting smaller tow cars.
Bailey Phoenix Plus 440The Bailey Phoenix Plus 440 provides a two-berth layout at a lower price range, starting from 17500 compared to the 29000 entry point for the Laser.
