2010 Kimberley Konvertible

[Chucaro]

and they are asking $ 18000 for this trailer which is made using the tub of a ute :eek:

I think that I have to look into my trailer based on a LWB tub and a canopy with more respect. :o
I have been thiking in adding a roofrack and a tent on it for long time and now I am going to look at it more seriously!

This is the 2010 Kimberley Konvertible

shows no originality

[Chucaro]

Yes. I agree, the only original bit is the cost of it :eek:

I can tell you,building my own camper trailer COST is huge with ANY related bits you buy!!!!

I've saw a couple of months ago brand new ute tubs like these on Grays Auctions that have come off of new Police vehicles in their dozens going for on average about $50 to $100 each.

Kind of makes it hard to swallow that they could be the basis of a $18,000 camper trailer.

cheers,

The Tub is the cheap bit.
For example with my trailer.
Off-Road HD springs,off-road hitch,electric brakes,etc etc etc,diy build(normal style boxtop)
$4500 materials only.
Extra large tent,$4500.
Genset $2000
Solarpanels/wiring $1000.
More to come as I havent finished building it.
Not defending the retail price of their trailer,just pointing out it is expensive to own or build these toys.

Finally a use for all those bloody Hilux's:twisted:

[Hoges]

it is certainly an improvement on 1,000,001 ways yet again to put a tent on a bog standard 6x4 /7x4/etc box trailer and call it an original idea and ask upwards of $10,000...

I would like to see one with a pod for a 100L turtle pac collapsible long range fuel tank (as used in long ferry stages in light aircraft)... a lot safer than multiple jerry cans...for long range expeditions...

A Sth African Conquerer camper went on EBay a couple of weeks ago for $9k in Brisbane...brilliant, damn I missed it!!!

Kimberly are very exxy for what you get, at the caulfield caravan and camping show last year they had a site across from my folks, there top of the range camper trailer was $83,000, who would pay that for a trailer and a tent with some led lights in it:(. You could build 4 or 5 for that price

[Redback]

Yeah but their trailer has mags:ohyes::Rolling:

KK are a joke:mad:
