Practical ownership tips
Towing suitability
At 1,550kg MTPLM, your tow car needs a kerbweight of at least 1,824kg 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 Hobby EXCELLENT 495 WFB has approximately 216kg 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.
A premium German-engineered couple's caravan with a full-width washroom.
The Hobby EXCELLENT 495 WFB is a single-axle caravan produced between 2020 and 2021, designed to accommodate two to four people. It is distinguished by its luxury rear washroom and French bed layout, offering a 216 kg payload within a 1550 kg MTPLM. This model focuses on interior space and high-specification lighting, though its 2.3 metre width and continental door placement are important considerations for UK buyers.
- Full-width rear washroom with a separate shower cubicle.
- French-style double permanent bed and a front U-shaped lounge.
- Single axle chassis with a 1550 kg MTPLM.
- Slim-Tower refrigerator featuring a removable freezer compartment.
- Knott ANS overrunning brake with automatic adjustment.
Worth knowing: The 2.3 metre width is wider than some standard UK models. The entrance door is located on the off-side for UK road use. A 1550 kg MTPLM requires a capable towing vehicle.
Buying a Hobby EXCELLENT 495 WFB
Who it suits
- • Couples seeking a spacious 'home from home' with a permanent bed.
- • Tourers who prioritise a large, private rear washroom.
- • Owners with a towing vehicle capable of managing a 1550 kg MTPLM.
Reasons to consider it
- • Exceptional build quality with premium interior finishes and soft-close cabinetry.
- • The 2.3 metre width provides a more open internal living area.
- • Ample storage is provided through overhead lockers and under-bed space.
What to check
- • Verify the specific model year as specifications can vary between 2020 and 2021.
- • Check the condition of the dimmable LED ambient lighting system.
- • Inspect the triple-point locking mechanism on the extra-wide entrance door.
- • Confirm the operation of the Knott ANS overrunning brake system.
Worth knowing: The unladen weight is relatively high, necessitating a powerful tow car. The off-side door configuration requires care when parking at UK roadsides.
Compare the Hobby EXCELLENT 495 WFB with similar models
| Model | Berths | MTPLM | Length | Typical price |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Hobby EXCELLENT 495 WFB | 4 | 1550 kg | 7.12 m | £16,500 to £34,500 |
| Bailey Unicorn Cadiz | 4 | 1600 kg | 7.34 m | £18,000 to £34,000 |
| Bailey Unicorn Vigo | 4 | 1600 kg | 7.34 m | £17,000 to £34,000 |
The Hobby EXCELLENT 495 WFB stands out for its 2.3 metre width and full-width rear washroom, providing a spacious interior environment that differs from many UK-built alternatives. While models like the Bailey Unicorn Vigo or Compass Capiro offer similar berth counts and weights, the Hobby focuses on a specific German design aesthetic and a continental door layout. Buyers must weigh the luxury of the internal space against the practicalities of towing a wider body on narrow lanes.
Worth knowing: Specifications and prices can vary by model year, trim and optional equipment.
Ownership and Maintenance Tips
- Utilise the 216 kg payload carefully to maintain stability on the single axle.
- Make use of the dimmable lighting to manage power consumption when off-grid.
- Ensure the insect screen on the extra-wide door is kept clear of debris.
Common mistakes to avoid
- • Underestimating the towing requirements for the 1550 kg MTPLM.
- • Forgetting the off-side door position when pitching in the UK.
Worth knowing: The 7.12 metre length and 2.3 metre width may limit access to some smaller pitches.
