They're bloody huge and weigh a ton, but do have a lot of internal space.
My head has been turned by the Uro Camper (http://www.uro-camper.com/web/en/) style, something like this (http://www.ursaminorvehicles.com/campers/jeep-camper/jeep-hard-top-fold-over-camper-package.html), or something like this (http://www.allpar.com/trucks/jeep/earthroamer.html), or at a push an http://www.alu-cab.co.za/.
I like the idea of accessing the living space from inside the car.
I have researched this a little. ;)
I have a new bed design coming for mine over Christmas.

It looks a lot of motor for the money so just how easy is it to detach the living quarters though and how would you store it ?

The Earth Roamer looks well solid I guess it several times more expensive.

I am at an age where I would sooner stop in a Hotel even if it was less than 4* or Pension Accomodation.lol

That I'm not sure of, but looking at it I presume its just a case of deploying the 4 legs, undoing the straps from the pickup bed and whatever other attachments it has and then pulling out from underneath it.

Leaving you with a functional 4x4 again to go and hit the lanes with :naughty

Wrong colour and nowhere near enough mods for sure :naughty I'd get some 33's on that, snorkel etc and certainly wouldn't go for that red :( Seems the Navara's are plentiful in the KL0 silver same as my Terrano or that nice dark blue :naughty

My French neighbour has one of these on his Navara, he uses it to follow motor rallies around France in the summer. It is VERY well fitted out inside, with loo/shower unit, kitchen/sink unit, good sleeping accomodation etc. He has fitted solar panels on the roof for extra leccie into a spare battery.

Easily demountable on 4 x extending legs, and well balanced, he says it drives perfectly.

If the steering wheel is on the right side of the car, tell him I'll make him an offer [emoji38]

I actually saw an l200 with a demountable unit on the back when I was out around Buxton last week.
To be honest it looked pants:lol
The overhang on the rear was ridiculous :nenau

Those big ones are, but there's expedition builds that are right tidy and generally sit in the tray.

Yeah the expedition ones are nice and proportional to the truck.
The one I saw looked like he had reversed into a caravan and drove off with it stuck on the back :lol

They're nice and big inside, the big arse is filled with shower and khazi. Expedition also have showers (http://www.trueswords.com/portable-water-container-solar-camping-shower-gallons-p-6939.html) and khazis (https://www.amazon.co.uk/Gelert-PLS036-Folding-Shovel/dp/B0010AA0TU). :p

That's been for sale a few times before boys.

I smell issue with it, I rang the guy for a laugh to see if he'd PX me on mine and he was very rude, before I'd even suggested the swap, it's like my phone call was inconveniencing him :nenau

I don't get why people list vehicles and then get annoyed when people call about it, I understand that there are messers out there, but still :doh
