Since 2021, we have owned a Benimar 463 Northautokapp, 170 hp with automatic transmission. The camper is from 2021, fully equipped. It drives fantastically: smoothly, fast, like a passenger car.
We are really in love with this camper, the atmosphere, the convenience, driving around, wonderful.
The camper can transport four people. When driving, you have a choice of five seats where you can sit safely buckle up.
In our cozy U-shaped seating area, five people can sit comfortably by turning the front seats around. Furthermore, the camper features luxury sanitary facilities, an excellent kitchen, comfortable beds, a bicycle rack, a large garage, and various storage options.
The front section can be separated from the sleeping area by a sliding door. At the back is a large bed, 205 cm wide by 200 cm long. It is perfectly comfortable for two adults and a child to sleep in. We personally prefer sleeping across the bed.
Above the seating area is a lift-up bed measuring 140 cm wide by 200 cm long. The lift-up bed can be lowered electrically. All sleeping essentials can be left on the bed, even when it is raised.
The camper has full sanitary facilities on board, including a toilet with a washbasin and a separate shower. Naturally, there is hot water.
The camper is a non-smoking camper.
A Northautokapp has been developed by Benimar as a camper suitable for cold environments. Thanks to the extra insulation and ring heating, it is extremely comfortable to travel in, even in winter.
Outdoor chairs and a table can be provided upon request. The camper has a bicycle carrier (with a lift) for two bicycles.
Further details:
Spacious built-in 3-burner gas stove; hot water boiler; large refrigerator with freezer compartment and spacious cool drawer; ample cupboard and storage space; two gas cylinders; forced-air heating; bicycle carrier for 4 bicycles; reversing camera; complete kitchen inventory; DAB radio with navigation; large awning; fire extinguisher, fire blanket, first aid kit, air conditioning in the driving area, power ventilation in the living area, power cable, kitchen inventory.

Curb weight 3070kg, maximum payload up to 3500kg, that includes people, diesel, and water.
Enforcement of the maximum permissible weight is becoming increasingly strict. If the weight exceeds 3,500 kg during an inspection, a fine will be issued. Additionally, the total weight must be reduced to 3,500 kg before driving is permitted. Naturally, the driver is responsible for this.
In principle, departure is on Saturday afternoon at 3:00 PM and return on Saturday morning at 11:00 AM. Outside of the high season, adjustments are possible in consultation.
Viewing by appointment in Zuidhorn (near Groningen);
No cleaning costs if the camper has been cleaned inside and out. If the camper is not returned completely clean, we will charge €75 for exterior cleaning and €60 for interior cleaning.
The gas cylinder can be refilled at Smeding in Leek upon return.

We are moving from Zuidhorn to Balkbrug, near Zwolle, in March. The camper will be available for viewing at our new home starting in April. When renting, the renter's car can remain parked on our property.
