The British have clear definitions of B, C, and B+:



They define a camper van, the Class B, exactly like Westronics in the following

Here at the Open Roads Forum we use the terms Class B, Class B+ and Class C in a clear and consistent way:

Class B: Built up from a van with minimal modifications to the original van body.

Class C: Built up from a cutaway vehicle - which means the cab is provided from the chassis manufacturer while the rest of the body is manufactured by the MH company.

Class B+: An undefined marketing term. Can be applied to anything from something that looks very much like a traditional Class B but is larger to a very large Class C without an overhead bed.

What Westronics calls a Class C is similarly called a C Class, or more informatively, coachbuilt, wherein the van body has been left off or removed to be replaced with more spacious and complete living quarters (coach) similar to a small travel trailer (which they call caravans).

The B+ that Wes calls an "undefined marketing term" is very much defined in the Briitish wording:

What we call a B+ is a C-Class in the UK, and "many have overcab beds in the ‘Luton’ but there are also ‘low-profile’ versions of these motorcaravans without the Luton over-cab space and sometimes with a lower roofline, these vans are much more economical on motorways due to their improved aerodynamics."

Most of the pics in my previous post are indeed low-profile Class Cs which is what we call B+ motorhomes.
