New Sprite Major 6 TD offers sleeping for six and two lounges

It offers 6 berths with a large front lounge, large rear dinette that converts to either a single bed or bunks and two further fixed bunks.

The £14,320 price tag gives it a hefty £3300 cost saving over its Swift plusher cousin, while a weight saving of around 80kg is useful for those with more marginal tow cars.
