I don't know the van, but coachman have a good reputation for build quality , but we have changed our van recently and got an end bathroom, and it was the best move we ever made, good space to change in and having the bathroom at the end dosnt take any of the living space away which.
Congrats on your new purchase.

We have an Amara 520/4 which is the same van. Very pleased with it and as you say loads of room without the bed taking up a lot of the van.

The side dinette is useful as children can have their own area and the bathroom is good as all clothes etc can be put away out of sight.

Enjoy your new van

We have a Hobby 540 WLU
It has two single fixed beds for the kids and a very large double bed which is also the main seating area. It separates into two rooms and the TV can be watched in either room. There is a washroom with a shower in the back.
