With a layout almost identical to the Peugeot-based Symphony and Symbol, the big-selling Duetto’s USP was its Ford Transit base vehicle, especially as here it came in rear-wheel drive form. Arguably rather less refined than the equivalent Peugeot Boxer, many buyers still opted for the Ford and there are plenty of these on the used market, so always compare age, condition, mileage and price. This one has a modest 33k miles recorded and comes with an awning and reversing camera.

All Duettos have a front lounge that includes a third travel seat, while this area adapts into twin beds or a double at night. As always, with this type of arrangement, ensure that you are comfortable with the beds’ sizes, joins and make-up routine before you buy.
