Is the Knaus Boxstar a practical van conversion?
The Knaus Boxstar is a versatile German-engineered van conversion that balances a compact 5.41m length with a substantial 700kg payload. It accommodates between two and four people through various layouts, including rear bed configurations and optional pop-top roofs. With prices ranging from 40000 to 75000, it serves as a nimble option for those prioritising manoeuvrability and build quality over expansive living areas.
- Compact external dimensions with a length of 5.41m and width of 2.05m.
- High payload capacity of 700kg for equipment and personal belongings.
- Flexible sleeping arrangements including transverse rear beds and single rear beds.
- Optional pop-top roof bed to increase capacity up to four berths.
- Standard MTPLM of 3500kg suitable for standard UK driving licences.
Worth knowing: Living space is more restricted than in larger coachbuilt motorhomes. Kitchen and washroom facilities are compact to fit the van conversion footprint. Storage capacity varies significantly between different layout types.
Buying a Knaus Boxstar: What you need to know
Who it suits
- • Couples seeking a nimble 5.41m vehicle for navigating narrow country lanes.
- • Small families who benefit from the additional sleeping space provided by a pop-top roof.
- • Owners who require a high 700kg payload for heavy outdoor gear or equipment.
Reasons to consider it
- • Robust German construction and clever space utilisation within a small footprint.
- • Ease of driving and parking due to the compact van conversion design.
- • A 3500kg MTPLM that avoids the need for specialised driving licence categories.
What to check
- • Verify the specific layout as options include transverse or single rear beds.
- • Confirm if a pop-top roof is fitted if you require the maximum four berth capacity.
- • Check the number of belted travel seats matches your specific travel party requirements.
Worth knowing: Internal storage may be a compromise depending on the chosen rear bed layout. The 2.05m width makes for a narrow interior corridor compared to wider motorhomes.
Compare the Knaus Boxstar with similar models
| Model | Berths | Maximum weight | Length | Typical price |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Knaus Boxstar | 4 | 3500 kg | 5.41 m | £40,000 to £75,000 |
| Auto-Trail Expedition 67 140BHP Auto | 4 | 3500 kg | 5.99 m | £48,000 to £62,000 |
| Benimar BENIVAN 144 P | 4 | 3500 kg | 5.99 m | £48,000 to £66,000 |
The Knaus Boxstar occupies a specific niche as a 5.41m van conversion with a high 700kg payload. When compared to alternatives like the 5.99m Auto-Trail Expedition or the 7.41m Elnagh Baron 530, the Boxstar prioritises compact dimensions and manoeuvrability. While the Swift Trekker S offers a similar 5.53m length, the Boxstar provides a distinct range of layouts including single or transverse beds. The choice between these models typically rests on whether the buyer values the Knaus build quality and payload over the additional living space found in longer 5.99m or 7.41m competitors.
Worth knowing: Specifications and prices can vary by model year, trim and optional equipment.
Tips for Knaus Boxstar owners
- Utilise the 700kg payload to carry heavier items low down to maintain stability.
- Test the rear bed access during viewing to ensure the layout suits your mobility needs.
- Regularly check the seals on the pop-top roof if your model is so equipped.
Common mistakes to avoid
- • Assuming all models sleep four; some configurations are strictly two berth without the pop-top.
- • Overlooking the 2.05m width when planning interior movement for multiple occupants.
Worth knowing: Always confirm the exact height of 2.58m before entering height-restricted areas. Payload should be monitored if adding heavy optional extras like awnings or bike racks.
Alternatives to the Knaus Boxstar
The Auto-Trail Expedition 67 140BHP Auto offers a longer 5.99m body for users who require more internal living space than the 5.41m Boxstar.
