Key Features of the MA-VE Levelling System
Here’s why the MA-VE Levelling System is the best choice for your motorhome:
- Competitive Price: As mentioned, the MA-VE Levelling System is the cheapest hydraulic levelling system on the UK market. For motorhome owners who are looking to upgrade without spending a fortune, this is an unbeatable option.

- Side Tilt Functionality: The MA-VE system includes a side tilt feature that makes wheel replacement, snow chain installation, and water tank discharge a breeze. It also helps prevent tyre ovalisation when your motorhome is in storage.
- Full Lift and Front Lift: The system can raise your motorhome to prevent ovalisation of tyres while in storage. It also inclines the roof when stored, promoting water runoff and reducing the risk of water ingress—keeping your motorhome in top condition.

Why Is the MA-VE Levelling System Perfect for Ford and Mercedes-Based Motorhomes?
If you own a Ford or Mercedes based motorhome, It’s the perfect choice.
In 2024, the Ford platform became a popular Motorhome choice. MA-VE jumped at this advancement becoming the first to design, engineer and implement purpose made Ford brackets for their Motorhome Levelling System. As an installer, the bolt on brackets for Ford means the chassis doesn’t have to be drilled, making the process smoother and more cost-effective. Because of this MA-VE is the obvious choice for a Ford based Motorhome.
Installation and Cost
The installation cost of the MA-VE Levelling System is available on our website, and the installation process typically takes two days and is carried out by our skilled team at Bristol Caravans.
We know that a major concern for motorhome owners is the cost of upgrades, and that’s why we focus on providing affordable solutions. For Ford and Mercedes motorhomes, this system is incredibly cost-effective. It will save you both time and money in the long run by protecting your vehicle and ensuring smoother, safer experiences on the road.
