When we got home and read the show leaflets we realised that we had missed the Adria Compact with the rear bed slide out. Not that we are thinking of changing just yet but it seemed such a great idea that we regret not looking.
Did anybody look at it? Opinions?

yes, we did....as the Adria stand was the first one we came to...
a great concept but, with all slide outs, there are compromises in covering (and uncovering) the sliding bit.....im afraid this bit was all a bit cheap, tatty, rattly and generally a bit low rent....
generally adrias are well screwed together but this part was always going to be a bit Heath Robinson.....
not for us based on the poor quality of the execution rather than the concept itself....

I'm always a little cautious about things I've seen for the first time at N.E.C or similar shows in case they have been 'rushed' just to get them there.
I saw a gorgeous great Winnebago there years ago, but it was crowded to hell. So I sneaked round the back to peep thro' the windows and found they had bodged the windows in {on the 'hidden' side} with sealant & Gaffer Tape!
Most definitely Fur Coat And a Lack of , , , , , , ,

Haven't been to the show this year but when we have looked at any van with a slide out we have always thought this area is a bit ropey, might be great for the hot climates but in our country not so sure, it looks as if it wouldn't stand up to a lot of wind or rain and I would hate to test it with snow, all a bit flimsy and we've seen a fair few.

Did anyone see the Moto-trek motor homes? They have slide outs too.
no i didnt, but MT have a far hreater experience of these things via their horse box ranges...
still, slide out not for me.....but might be for some...
IH have a slide out in the SL range. we had a FL 630 priced up....ye Gods......unbelievable price for a PVC
