Nu Venture Motorhomes for Sale

Nu Venture Motorhomes is a small, family-run converter founded in July 1993 by Gordon Hulton and Trevor Prescott, operating from Seven Stars Road in Wallgate, Wigan. Unlike most British converters that bolt a furniture pack into a panel van, Nu Venture builds a true low-profile coachbuilt body onto short-wheelbase Stellantis-group vans, giving the finished vehicle a wider, taller habitation area than the donor cab. The core model is the Nu Rio, offered in side-door (SD) and rear-door (RD) layouts, with an end kitchen, offside rear washroom and a convertible lounge that makes up either a single 1.85m double or two long single beds. There is also a Nu Rio Micro built on smaller car-derived vans such as the Peugeot Partner and Citroen Berlingo, aimed at solo travellers and weekenders. Donor chassis for the standard Nu Rio rotate through the Stellantis SWB family (Peugeot Expert, Citroen Dispatch, Toyota Proace, Fiat Scudo and Vauxhall Vivaro), typically with the 2.0 HDi 120bhp manual or 178bhp automatic. The company also runs a Nu Used programme, converting low-mileage second-hand vans to full Nu Rio spec, and backs new builds with a three-year warranty. Typical buyers are retired or downsizing UK couples who want a stealthy sub-5.7m vehicle that drives like a van but offers a full coachbuilt interior.
