Catching up on our reviews of yesteryear, it’s time for the Sterling Europa 540 to receive the Classic Gold treatment from the CaravanTimes.
Our reviewer Andy Legg took on the challenge of reviewing the model way back in August 2011 and he certainly wasn’t one to pull his punches!
With fours across the board in terms of scores for reliability, equipment and value for money, the Europa 540 was less than perfect but nonetheless did show some promise and impressed in some key areas.
“It looks fantastic inside with the silver aluminium effects. Reminds me of my Audi,” stated Andy. “But the quality was a little disappointing, I did change all the door handles for metal ones as the cheap chrome-plated plastic ones were horrible.”
The fact that two battery chargers failed and the vehicle had some leaky pipes meant it wasn’t the most glowing of reviews; however, with plenty of room for four people to relax in comfortably, the Europa 540 at least had that going for it.
We want to hear from you, so let us know how you’ve found the Sterling Europa 540 over the years and if you think we got it right in our initial review.
