• Overcab bed frees up the living space: Having the main double permanently up top means the lounge stays usable without nightly reshuffling. It’s practical and keeps day-to-day living simple.
• Bench seating gives flexibility: The side sofas feel more relaxed than a fixed dinette and work well for lounging, daytime naps, or converting into extra sleeping when needed.
• Good touring extras already fitted: Cruise control, reversing camera, electric step and awning are all things buyers usually ask for — having them onboard makes this an easier sell.

• Overcab height won’t suit everyone: Some buyers prefer low-profile vans for ferry access or easier driving — this is unapologetically a traditional overcab.
• Interior style shows its era: The layout works well, but buyers chasing modern finishes may need convincing on practicality over looks.

The Carioca 705 is one of those honest, no-nonsense motorhomes that still does exactly what people expect it to. It suits buyers who want space, fixed sleeping, and a relaxed lounge without paying for modern bells and whistles they won’t use. It slots neatly into the range — simple layout, good kit, and easy for people to picture using.
