Three kids. I use a camper trailer, roof rack with 500L roof box, plus the rest of the space for swags, awnings etc. I arrange things so soft things are scattered within the car.

I was thinking of a pod trailer with a roof-rack on it so that shovels etc don't go on the roof of the car.Quote:

Prolly not what you wanted, but may give some idea's on the people who did the mod.

That's quite interesting - just need to do that to the normal length one.Quote:

Problem with the D4 is that it ends up looking like this because of the plough:
Thule EasyBase and BackUp Box | in Juniper Green, Edinburgh | Gumtree
It'd probably require a Mitch hitch.
Not really, that looks like a UK / European tow bar.
