The Carado CV601 Pro represents German precision engineering applied to family campervanning. Built in Germany by the renowned Erwin Hymer Group, this 5.99-metre campervan packs genuine 4-berth capability into a compact, everyday-driveable package that won't intimidate on narrow country lanes or urban car parks.
The standout feature is the ingenious bunk bed system. Unlike fixed bunks that dominate the space, the lower bunk can be completely removed and stored separately, transforming the rear into a flexible multi-use area. When both bunks are in place, children (or adventurous adults) have proper sleeping accommodation. With the lower bunk removed, you gain valuable floor space for gear, bikes, or just more living room.
Built on the proven Fiat Ducato platform, the CV601 Pro benefits from the Pro specification package, which elevates it above entry-level models. This includes premium framed habitation windows with seven-year water ingress warranty, enhanced insulation for year-round use, and quality interior finishes that create a homely atmosphere. The dinette bench with lounge option provides comfortable seating for four, with proper Isofix fittings for two child seats as standard.
The side kitchen is ergonomically designed with a two-burner gas hob, glass covers for safety, and an impressive 84-litre compressor fridge positioned to open from inside or outside. The compact bathroom includes a fixed washbasin, cassette toilet, recessed LED spotlights, and skylight for ventilation. This competition vehicle includes the automatic gearbox upgrade, optional electric pop-top roof for additional sleeping space or extra headroom, diesel heating, solar panel, and premium comfort package.
This is the core factory specification that makes the Carado CV601 Pro ready for touring from day one. It covers the everyday essentials you rely on, from the base vehicle to the complete living setup.

Sleek German Design
The Carado CV601 Pro presents a clean, modern exterior that prioritises functionality without sacrificing aesthetics. The high-roof Fiat Ducato base in Metallic Silver provides excellent standing height throughout, while the premium framed habitation windows create a more refined appearance than standard panel van conversions.
The optional electric pop-top roof integrates beautifully into the roofline, deploying smoothly to provide either additional sleeping space or simply more volume for a sense of spaciousness. Large windows are strategically positioned to maximize natural light and views, all featuring double glazing for insulation and noise reduction. Well-placed storage lockers and a seven-year water ingress warranty on all windows provide peace of mind for the long term.
Functional Family Space
The CV601 Pro dinette bench is designed with families in mind. The lounge option provides comfortable seating for four people, with proper three-point seatbelts and Isofix fittings for two child seats fitted as standard – a feature that sets Carado apart from many competitors. The ergonomically shaped cushions ensure comfort on long journeys, while the extending table creates a stable dining surface.
Swiveling the front cab seats creates a sociable face-to-face seating arrangement perfect for meals, games, or simply relaxing together. Interior lighting is entirely LED as standard, minimising power consumption while increasing battery life. The thoughtful design includes multiple storage options that are both easily accessible and secure, with overhead lockers, under-seat storage, and clever cubbies throughout. Large windows with blinds and flyscreens ensure excellent ventilation and natural light.
Innovative Bunk System
The removable bunk bed system is pure genius. With both bunks in place, you have comfortable sleeping for two children or smaller adults, with good headroom and individual reading lights. The bunks are sturdy, well-made, and large enough to be genuinely usable – not just token sleeping spaces.
The magic happens when you remove the lower bunk. Suddenly, you have a versatile rear area that can accommodate bikes, surfboards, camping gear, or simply create more living space when you don't need the extra sleeping capacity. The upper bunk can remain in place or also be removed depending on your needs. With the optional pop-top roof, you gain another double bed for adults, making this a flexible 2, 3, or 4-berth campervan depending on configuration. High-quality mattresses ensure comfortable sleep, while ample storage beneath the bunks and in overhead lockers means there's a place for everything.
Practical Side Kitchen
The CV601 Pro side kitchen extends partially across the sliding door, making intelligent use of available space. The two-burner gas hob is covered by safety glass when not in use, protecting the burners and creating additional workspace. Electronic ignition makes lighting the hob simple and safe.
The 84-litre compressor fridge is significantly larger than many competitors, positioned forward-facing so drawers can be opened from inside the campervan or from outside – perfect for loading shopping or serving drinks without trampling through the living area. Multiple storage drawers with Servo-Soft closing provide space for utensils, pans, and provisions, all finished to a high standard. The round stainless steel sink includes a drainer, while cupboard space above and below offers additional storage for food and kitchen equipment. LED lighting ensures excellent visibility for food preparation at any time of day.
Compact Full Facilities
Despite the compact overall length, Carado has included a proper bathroom with all essential facilities. The fixed washbasin is a quality unit with good-sized bowl, while the mirrored cupboard above provides storage for toiletries and medicines. The cassette toilet is accessed from outside for convenient emptying.
Recessed LED spotlights provide excellent illumination, while the skylight ensures effective ventilation to prevent condensation. The shower facility, while compact, is fully functional with good drainage. The overall design makes clever use of every centimetre, creating a bathroom that feels more spacious than its modest footprint suggests. Premium finishes throughout reflect Carado's attention to detail.
Opposite the kitchen is the washroom area. It’s compact, but it’s properly kitted out for real touring: a cassette toilet, a fixed basin, and a separate shower setup that’s ideal for rinsing off sandy feet, salty hair, or the day’s mud and mileage.It’s one of those features that changes how you use the van without you even realising at first.
You’re not constantly planning around campsites or public facilities. You can stop where you want, stay a little longer, and keep the day running on your terms.
Efficient Space Planning
At 5.99 metres, the CV601 Pro sits in the sweet spot for family camping – long enough to include all necessary facilities but short enough to remain easy to drive and park. The layout flows logically from cab to dinette, past the kitchen on the offside and bathroom on the nearside, to the versatile bunk bed area at the rear.
The open line of sight from front to back creates an enormous sense of space, avoiding the claustrophobic feel that can plague some campervans. Well-placed windows throughout ensure natural light floods the interior, while the high roof provides standing height for most adults. The optional pop-top adds even more volume when deployed, making the interior feel genuinely spacious. Fresh water and waste tanks are generously sized for extended adventures, while comprehensive storage solutions mean a family's worth of gear can be accommodated without cluttering the living space.
Confident Everyday Driving
Based on the Fiat Ducato platform, the CV601 Pro benefits from decades of continuous development that make it one of the most refined vans to drive. The 2.2-litre Multijet diesel engine produces 140bhp, providing adequate performance with excellent fuel economy. The upgraded 8-speed automatic gearbox included in this competition vehicle transforms the driving experience, making long journeys effortless and relaxing.
Modern driver aids include cruise control, electric windows and mirrors, and comprehensive safety systems. The compact 5.99m length makes parking straightforward, while the high driving position provides excellent visibility. At 3,500kg MTPLM, standard Cat B licence holders can drive this campervan without additional qualifications. The Fiat Ducato's proven reliability and widespread dealer network mean maintenance and repairs are straightforward anywhere in Europe.

Our focus is always on the prize itself, and in our case, that means the campervan. We believe winning a campervan is a genuinely exciting, life-changing prize, something that opens up new experiences rather than simply landing as a number in a bank account.
Because of that, we generally shy away from cash prizes or cash alternatives and leave those to other competition sites. For us, the appeal is in the adventure, the freedom, and the memories that come with owning a campervan, and that’s what our competitions are built around.If a cash alternative is ever available for a specific competition, it will be stated clearly on this competition page before you enter.
If it’s not mentioned here, then the prize is the campervan as described, with no cash alternative offered.Our aim is to be upfront from the start, so you can decide whether this competition is right for you before taking part.
Fairness is non-negotiable for us, and we’ve built the draw process to be as clear and consistent as possible. When a competition reaches its closing date and time, entries are locked and the draw is run automatically using a Random Number Generator (RNG).
In plain English: every valid entry is assigned its place in the draw, and the RNG selects the winner from that pool. No judgement calls, no manual picking, and nothing “behind the curtain”.Because the draw happens only once the competition has closed, everyone is entering under the same rules and within the same window. We also keep a proper record of the draw outcome so the process is traceable if it’s ever queried.
If an entry doesn’t meet the competition rules (for example, it exceeds entry limits or fails eligibility checks), it won’t be treated as a valid entry for the draw.If your entry wins, you’ll be notified immediately by email.
If we don’t hear back from you via email, we’ll follow up using the contact details you provided at checkout, which may include a phone call, text message, or WhatsApp.
The idea is simple: if you’ve won, we’ll do our best to reach you quickly so you can enjoy the moment and we can move things along smoothly.
Yes, we do offer a free postal entry option, in line with competition requirements.Postal entries are limited to one entry per household, per competition, per month, and must be submitted exactly as outlined in our instructions.
This includes providing the correct details, meeting the eligibility requirements, and ensuring your entry arrives within the stated timeframe. Any entries that don’t meet these requirements won’t be included in the draw.Because postal entries rely on delivery times and manual processing, they naturally take longer to handle and don’t come with instant confirmation.
For that reason, most people choose to enter online, where entries are confirmed immediately, easier to manage, and give access to better value options such as Subscribe & Save.
Postal entries are included in the draw in the same way as online entries, provided they’re valid and received on time. Full instructions are available on the website for anyone who wishes to use this method.
If this competition reaches its maximum number of entries before the listed closing date, it may close early. When that happens, entries are locked and no further entries can be accepted, even if the original closing date has not yet passed.If the competition does sell out early, this will be made clear on this page, and the draw will still take place as scheduled for that competition.
Selling out early doesn’t change how the draw works or how the winner is chosen, it simply means all available entries have been taken.For anyone planning to enter, it’s always best to do so sooner rather than later, especially on popular competitions that can fill up quickly.
Once you’ve entered a competition, everything is kept clear and easy to follow. You’ll receive email confirmations for your entries, so you always have a record of what you’ve entered and when.If you choose to provide a mobile number at checkout, you’ll also receive text message confirmations and updates, giving you extra reassurance that your entry has gone through successfully.
This helps make sure you don’t miss anything important.We’ll continue to keep you updated by email with key information such as competition reminders, closing dates, and winner announcements.
If you’re part of Subscribe & Save, things are even simpler, as your entries are handled automatically and updates arrive without needing to re-enter each time.Our aim is that you always know where you stand. From confirmation through to the draw result, everything is communicated clearly, so you can enjoy the experience without second-guessing anything.
Once the winner has been confirmed and we’ve made contact, we’ll arrange the next steps directly with them. The exact handover details depend on the prize, and everything will be explained clearly so there’s no uncertainty.If the prize is a campervan, we’ll work with the winner to agree a suitable collection or delivery arrangement.
Timescales, location, and any practical details will be discussed in advance, so everything is handled smoothly and properly. Our aim is to make the handover an enjoyable part of the experience, not a complicated one.
Any relevant paperwork or checks will be covered during this stage, and we’ll guide the winner through the process so they know exactly what to expect. Nothing is rushed, and arrangements are only made once everyone is comfortable with the plan.
If you have a question we haven’t covered, we’re always happy to help. Just get in touch and we’ll take it from there.
