    Bunk caravans, hey........

    My 16' Frankin Arrow sees us right for up to about 2 weeks at a time - it's just a bit small on space for those things you may want on an extended trip but 20' or so twin axle and Imthink we could just about live in it.

    If I was single, I'd be able to live in the Arrow for sure.
    Oh, I thought he said he wanted bunks!

    You don't want Citroens ..... The damn things breed while your not looking And you'll find no car "right" again .. they'll all handle like crap ... or ride like merde etc..

    That's one nice looking bunk van! That layout usually had the pull out couch at the front that became a double bed.

    Not this one. The pull out couch is in the middle (where that mattress is) and in the end is a table that turns into a double bed. Eight berth this one.

    Unless he's not telling us something...

    I assumed it is just Pedro and Mrs Pedro, and the vertically challenged one named Guinness.
