This luxury 40ft motorhome worth £1.2m is so big that it comes with its own garage

Owning a motorhome is the dream of many savers but those with money to burn could pick up this behemoth – that is so big that it even has its own garage.

Coming with a list of mod-cons that matches the price tag, the 40ft Volkner Mobil Performance S features a garage underneath the vehicle so your car can come along for the ride.

Lucky owners of the Performance S will be able to load up their cars on board the motorhome via an electro-hydraulic lift.

But the built-in garage only scratches the surface at what is on board the home-on-wheels.

A fully-equipped kitchen, sleeping quarters, wooden and leather fittings and a state-of-the-art entertainment system means you don’t have to leave the luxury at home.

There is even a wall that slides out to provide extra space – just in case you might need it.

But it’s the addition of a cooking island – something that you won’t find inside most motorhome competitors – that makes the Performance S the right choice, according to Stephanie Volkner, director of German firm Volkner Mobil GmbH.

She said: It is a house on wheels.

“They want to decide when they start their journey, where they can go, not before.

“Exclusive is for everybody very different. Some need a golden faucet to be exclusive.
