I was over there a few weeks ago, loads of those setups knocking about. You can hire them.
I was in a campervan which was a bit less adventurous, but fantastic trip all the same.
Saw one 4x4 that had a military looking trailer tent. Had a special frame that swung the boat up and top of the trailer.

harlowmaverick · 01-01-2011, 18:23

We have 3 caravans and wouldn't be without one, i can't see any real pitfalls. I must admit it's better if you've got somehwere to keep it thogh and don't have to fork out for storage.

im dreading going down to the static caravan in norfolk in march .... fills me with dread thinking what could have happened with the recent temps even tho the services have been disconnected ..... they get connected in march

Soldiers Off The Street (S.O.T.S)
We are looking for unwanted liveable caravans near or not far from Northampton we have the site for them and they will be used for crash pads for homeless ex service personnel taken straight off the streets if you can help please get in touch with me and I will pass your details onwards. Many thanks (I'm ex RAF Police but don't let that put you off)

Very nicely done

but a bit blingy for my tastes

Oh, I would SO love to do that trip. I have a caravan, and go touring regularly, but only in this country so far.

I am saving up for when I retire, then I'm going to take the 'trol (which will be properly restored by then and a caravan, and whichever dog or dogs I have at the time, and go to Europe, and drive. And drive, and drive. I'd like to see Kazakhstan, Russia, Turkey, Sweden, Norway (not in that order)... India.

Now that is a good plan

We intend being caravan dwellers for a significant part of the year when we retire (not just fair weather). One of those Aus vans would be the muts bits for us.
