Practical ownership tips

Towing suitability

At 1,919kg MTPLM, your tow car needs a kerbweight of at least 2,258kg to meet the 85% guideline. Check towing capacity by reg or use the towing calculator to compare a specific car and caravan.

Available payload

The Coachman Laser 855 Xtra has approximately 160kg of user payload. This must cover all personal belongings, water, gas, awning, and accessories. Overloading affects handling and is illegal.

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.

Is the Coachman Laser 855 Xtra a suitable four-berth caravan?

The Coachman Laser 855 Xtra is a 2026 model year twin-axle caravan designed for four people. It features an 8-foot wide body shell and a 7.89m length, housing a rear island bed and a mid-transverse washroom. With a price range between 32000 and 46500, it includes high-specification systems such as Alde central heating and AL-KO ATC stability control.

Twin-axle chassis with 8-foot wide body shell construction.
Four-berth layout featuring a rear island bed and Ozio mattress.
Full-width mid-transverse washroom with circular shower cubicle.
Alde 24-hour programmable radiator heating and water system.
Kitchen equipped with a Dometic 10.5T series 153-litre fridge freezer.

Worth knowing: The 1919kg MTPLM necessitates a high-capacity tow vehicle. A 2.44m width may require additional care when navigating narrow routes. Payload is limited to 160kg, requiring careful management of equipment.

Buying a Coachman Laser 855 Xtra

Who it suits

• Tourists seeking maximum internal width via the 2.44m body shell.
• Year-round caravanners requiring a programmable radiator heating system.
• Families or couples prioritising a private rear bedroom and island bed.

Reasons to consider it

• The twin-axle chassis provides enhanced stability for a 7.89m vehicle.
• The 8-foot width creates a significantly more spacious front lounge and kitchen.
• Safety features include ATC stability control as standard equipment.

What to check

• Verify the operation of the Alde 24-hour programmable heating system.
• Confirm the condition of the Ozio mattress in the rear bedroom.
• Check the functionality of the AL-KO Automatic Adjustment brake system.
• Inspect the external 230V and BBQ points for signs of wear.

Worth knowing: The 160kg payload is relatively modest for a caravan of this size. Ensure your driving licence covers the 1919kg MTPLM requirements.

Worth knowing: Specifications and prices can vary by model year, trim and optional equipment.

Ownership and Maintenance Tips

Utilise the 24-hour programmable Alde system to maintain temperature during winter use.
Regularly test the AL-KO ATC stability control system before long journeys.
Monitor the slate-effect worktops in the kitchen for surface protection.

Common mistakes to avoid

• Exceeding the 160kg payload by installing heavy optional extras.
• Attempting to tow with a vehicle rated for less than 1919kg.
