This from landyonline.co.za:

Land Rover Denmark have introduced a new Discovery 3 Camper model. The roof can be raised to increase head room for four standing adults. Standard equipment includes a picnic table with special seating for four and a small functional kitchen with gas stove and sink that conveniently folds away. The Discovery 3 camper is available in S, SE and HSE specification powered by either the 2.7liter turbo diesel or 4.4 liter V8!

It is a bit debatable as to whether or not this is a real camper conversion or just a super duper picnic vehicle. But it is definitely a great idea and a good start to kitting the new Disco out for overland travel. There definitely seems to be adequate space for these modifications and it looks really good. However a bed and some storage space would complete the package nicely.

I suppose with the glass roof that would be relatively easy to do, no need to make structural changes to the roof.

Couldn't really call it a camper - but it is a neat picnic wagon.

well that's different - I think that i'd prefer to sit outside on a table and chairs as i reckon it would get pretty stuffy in the car

Oh, I dunno, might be quite cosy inside for tea if there were lions outside, or more worrying hippos.

It's a joke right :!: 8O :?: :?:

Why would ANYONE get that in an HSE version ?


It might be useful for picnics in British weather (dismal rain or blizzardy snow) but I can't think of any GOOD reason it exists.
