Celex Top
Over years of touring, we’ve evolved our own style of doing things. Everyone does. But realising that some travellers may have different layout preferences, we invited our customers to tell us what they’d like to see in a Bilbo’s Motorhome. The wealth of feedback we received helped us to take a fresh look at our design approach. The Celex was the delightful result, hailed by many as the Volkswagen motorhome that others are judged by. We were particularly pleased when this model won the much-coveted 2005 Motorhome Monthly Magazine – Best Elevating Roof Motorhome of the year.
Benefiting from a double bed and endless storage options, this is a superior multi-purpose motorhome, that’s as comfortable at the golf club as it is on distant Mediterranean beaches.
