Roof Tents ??

[davemud]

OK looking for a roof tent

Any One got a personal recommendation, used one or even have one fitted.
Its going on my patrol for use in the UK, Europe and Further afield hotter climates.
Have done the rounds of shows and see quite a number but can decided which one ideas please.

May be a second hand one (any one)

Trekoverland

Bought mine from here http://www.trekoverland.com/ in 2005.
They dont make the one Ive got anymore. Its a newer improved version, costs more too tho. Bout £1500. Mine was £700.
Really good idea for on the move camp anywhere camping. Surprisingly very good in strong winds.
Mine is the 'Howlin moon' two man version.
You can easily feed electrics from your truk up into the tent for light etc too.
With the new version there are lots of extension accessories available.
Of course there are cheaper brands on the market that are apparently very good.
The tv program 'long way down/round' people used the 'Howlin moon' stuff too.

D'ya know, if my missus would camp and we didn't have the van I could genuinely fancy one of those. Now I have the Terrano it would be a posh version of bivvying :thumbs

If you look through the link dadba posted theres a gallery and one of the pics is a LR (defender style) and the whole of one side under a lift up flap on the load area is given over to a wooden crockery rack either very sophisticated, under the thumb or no idea how to use space properly :lol:lol

He should have gone to Nissan
