Very nice Rusnut,,:cool:
but no bench space!
Mrs Pedro would revolt!:p
Yeah mate he's a bit short on bench space but he's only a little fella.
its that humungous fridge thats the problem;):D
And the toilet, shower, queen bed and washing machine
this is my Camper set up.
It started life as an ARB Trailer built for the Military. (Tougher than anything else out there I could find, Tandem Axles, & Tough Suspension mounted in the sides so it would not get damage.)
Here is an early video of it.............

Have done a lot more mods since.......... With the gas struts on the hard top complete with Oz Tent it sets up in 30 seconds. By design it also becomes my base camp for further offroad adventures (80l water, 200amp batteries, gas etc. custom kitchen with 60l Waeco Fridge, & room on top for the tinny.

Here's ours at Douglas Hot Springs last year. Bought brand new May 2012, the Topaz is a very capable offroad van. Weighs 2 tonne loaded, my Ranger pulls it easy. Prior to the Ranger we towed it with a 2010 Puma and did the Vic high country in December 2012, camped at Talbotville, great spot.

Our set up at Myall River recently. Disco tows the camper soooo much better than the Pajero.

All Terrain Camper Trailer. 2003 model.
Agricultural but functional.It has an annexe as well, but rarely put it up unless staying somewhere for more than a couple of night and the weather is cool/wet. Its more bother than its worth.
