The best way to make a van last on shocking roads is to drive to the conditions, I'm certain that is the reason it has lasted that long! Good cheap accommodation right there!

Great little set up you have between the Van and the 110...

Was great to chat and see the set-up at Melrose... :cool:

Happy & safe travels to you.

I think the references were to his Avatar and Signature pics:D

This is our 1998 Trak Shak - one of the last ones built in Australia. It has taken us everywhere, and been a pleasure to have. When I say everywhere I mean that it's been off-road more than most vehicles will ever see, and it's taken it in it's stride with less issue than the vehicles towing it :angel:

Best investment we ever did (we have 4 kids).

Currently in UK with us.

It's a 2003 Elddis 524 4 berth 17' body, full shower and toilet.

Had it 7 years, done a lot of work fixing leaks etc. will take it to Oz when we emigrate to Perth to join our daughters and grand children

I know it's a bit of a "lightweight" by Oz standards but won't be straying too far off blacktop as my wife is disabled. It's her comfort banket.

Used mostly in Scotland over the years (usually snowing, always cold, be good to camp in the sun!)


Lot of work to make it Oz compliant and more suited to Oz roads (extra spares, on board water, beefed up suspension and body etc.)

About to retire and get rid of my company car and get a Disco at last. Maybe bring that with me as well.

1st post so unsure how it will display

You've done well Gongon:clap2:

it does look cold!:eek:
