Yes, that was the one Ed..

Not convinced. I prefer the land cruiser.

Apples and oranges KB. There’s no way I’d give up my 80 for 20 of them. But if Lynn wanted one (which sadly she doesn't) I’d have one alongside it any day.

 

[GeekOKent]

Get her a 120

By way of looks, how about this.

Would you still prefer the Jimny ???

Nope. But that there is the price of 2 Jimnies and bigger. No contest really KB. If someone said which one, they’re both free/the same money, then it’s the 40. That 40 does look great in that pic KB.

follow the ebay link, it really looks rather good!!

It’s a tardis on wheels that. What a superb build. It only looks like it sleeps one though unless there’s another drop down.

That's ace! Shows what you can do in a tiny space, I guess...

 

[GeekOKent]

Almost like a portaloo on wheels.

I was thinking BT van meets 4x4 but felt that a tad harsh.

 

[GeekOKent]

Sorry

But it feels so so tight inside there, that I can't imagine it being a real serious travel option

I think there are smaller campers available based on vans or the Suzuki Super Carry for example but as you say, a bit compact for anything other than a week or two, especially for two people.

I reckon it could be easily adapted to take a drop down bed for 2 though.

I thought that but my only concern would be how to get up there with the limited room left as access. Might have to roll one person on top of the other while the second drop down is dropped down. Might need to be released in the morning.

Shouldn’t have such a big arse!

Oh please!!

Well, it would look big in that anyway
