Hi Mate,
I suppose it depends which model Perentie you are looking at.. If you bought a 6x6 you get turbo, power steering and lots of room..
I have an FFR (non turbo, no power steering) and find it is fine to sleep in the back of. But that was just me (not SWMBO). The FFR was great because I ran a fridge off the aux batteries (using a 24v to 12v converter). You could fit a double bed in the back of an FFR, but you would need to remove the dickie seats.
Noise wise? It's probably never going to be as quiet as a Disco or Defender. You can make improvements by doing sound deadening under the bonnet, firewall, dash, doors, floor, around the gearbox, seat box, etc.
But it's never going to be as quiet and smooth as a newer vehicle..
I loved my FFR on my recent trip though.
