My cool roof tent on my doka (is now sold to a Syncro owner)

Post by jed the spread »

The truth is I can"t see me using it as I have bought the westy since and it has a pop top. I thought i would offer it here first as it would suit a Syncro better :wink:

For those who havnt seen it, its a good one. Its not one of the cheap thin ones from Germany that leak in, its one that was made in Southern Africa to be used on overland trips. We used it last summer about ten times and it is an awesome thing, stays dark inside with the sides zipped up and comes with an extension to the ladder so it can be put on a Syncro rather than a land rover. Its also mounted on two roof rack bars for easy fitting you just need to slide it beween your existing one and bolt the bars together side by side. This way it allows you to slide it off without the roof rack feet gouging your roof :wink: Good if you want to sleep in your doka or panel van or if you dont want to chop the roof off your van to put a pop top on.

LINK TO WHERE IT CAME FROM NEW

It has had a tiny hole in the cover were my ladders from work rubbed on it but I put some of that tent repair tape on so quite respectable still. What you see in this picture is what you will get, (porky South African not included)
