Used 1500 Remote Series
The weights, dimensions and build facts Goldstream RV publishes for this range.
Weights
2,300kg ATM minus 1,700kg tare leaves 600kg for everything you put in it. Fill the 190 litre tank and 190kg of that is already spent, because a litre of water weighs a kilogram.
These are the figures for a new one at base spec.
A used van carries whatever the last owner bolted to it, and the plate on the drawbar governs, not the brochure.
Weigh it loaded at a public weighbridge before you tow it any distance.
What to check on this one
- 190 litres of fresh waterRun the pump until it settles, then get under the van with a torch and check the tank straps and the fittings above them for drips.
- Three-way fridgeTest it on all three supplies before you agree anything: 240V, 12V and gas.
- 6.8m on the roadMeasure your driveway, your gate and the storage bay before you commit, and check the length against the sites you usually book.
- 2.5m highCheck it against your carport and against the awnings and low bridges on the roads you tow.
Common questions
What does a Goldstream RV 1500 Remote Series weigh?▼
Goldstream RV publishes a tare of 1,700kg and an ATM of 2,300kg for the 1500 Remote Series. Tare is the van empty as it left the factory; ATM is the most it is allowed to weigh loaded and unhitched. The compliance plate on the van you are looking at is the figure that counts, and on a used van it can differ from the brochure once a previous owner has added to it.
How much payload does a Goldstream RV 1500 Remote Series have?▼
2,300kg ATM minus 1,700kg tare leaves 600kg. That allowance covers water, gas, food, bedding, tools and every accessory fitted since the van was built. Filling the 190 litre fresh water tank spends 190kg of it, because a litre of water weighs a kilogram.
What is the tow ball weight of a Goldstream RV 1500 Remote Series?▼
Goldstream RV publishes 185kg. That weight presses down on the towbar. The car carries it, so it counts against the car's payload and has to sit under both the car's tow ball limit and the towbar's own rating. Weigh the loaded van before a long trip, because where you pack heavy gear moves this figure.
What should I check on a used Goldstream RV 1500 Remote Series?▼
Start with the facts this range was built to: 190 litres of fresh water, three-way fridge, 6.8m on the road, 2.5m high. Then read the compliance plate on the drawbar against the weights above, and take the van over a public weighbridge loaded the way you plan to travel.
