Very plain and old fashioned on the inside, better of with an Eriba Puck caravan, also 3 berth.

Demountables always look stoopid in the campsite, like an abandoned 1960's Russian satellite

You will have people queuing up for burgers when you fire up that generator. :lol:

The crewcab doesn't look too bad - long way to go to look though

So here is a couple of things i have notied, if it is a demountable were are the drop down legs for the demountable to sit on when you drive away from it. Also doesnt that over cab bit look well, abit short. i thought they were like this Demountable unless its been cut from a bedford rascal or something and made to stay on somehow.

spoke to the seller last week and apparently the previous owner (deceased) used to work for a caravan manufacturer and had it made - hence the wierdness. No legs tho' - could be a problem

They normally have wind-down legs which lift up the demountable, leaving an abandoned box 4 feet off the ground looking rather foolish. You then drive out from under them.

It would be a 5 or 6 seater, but with no windows in the back not nice to travel in.

This is way cooler.

It's enough to make you wanna emigrate without any other factors.

Scenery makes us wanna go not the caravan.

Could always have a go in Devon though, Clive how long do you reckon the 'Ranger' would last?
