RIB 130 near Cardiff for me to see please

[El Davies]

Hi All
I hope you’re well
I’ve been looking for a while for a T30 or 32 with a 130 RIB and slimline kitchen but not found one yet within my price range. I was wondering if anyone in Cardiff or surrounding areas (with a 130 RIB) would be kind enough to let me see theirs to see if the seats feel wide enough for 3 adults/teenagers.
I drove to London yesterday to look at a van with 3 seats (it was the Reimo Variotech 120) but it was much too narrow.
I’m worried that I’m searching for the holy grail (130 RIB) when it might not actually be suitable. Also, if it is right, maybe I can look at converting but due to the cost, I can’t get the seat wrong.
Thanks very much in advance /Diolch yn fawr

As it’s made for 3 I would assume it fits 3, as we are all different shapes a sizes it very much depends on the individuals and expectations but I wouldn’t expect spacious conditions.
I have a 114cm California double seat bed which is adequate for most adults, equivalent of 57cm/person.
130 RIB is 129cm wide divided by 3 = 43cm/person.
For starters I would try sitting the 3 persons on a bench or plank 129cm wide, you may find it’s a not starter before you leave your house.

Hi, no i’m not expecting spacious conditions. My VW Touran back seat is about the same size (130) but due to the RIB being less moulded and higher up etc I need to try it out to see if it’s the right bench for us.
It’s too much ££££ to get it wrong.
Thanks/Diolch
