Litch Posted December 19, 2006 Share Posted December 19, 2006 I take it you mean demountable motorcaravan body? Just got rid of my stock of motorcaravan magazines but I know several firms advertise in them (quite popular on the new breed of Jap pick-ups). Check out MMM (Motorcaravan & Motorhome Monthly), Practical Motorhome etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wouldn't do any harm to ask over there as someone may have seen something - it's not what you know but who you know and all that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lorca Posted December 20, 2006 Author Share Posted December 20, 2006 Ya Im in Ireland but I havent a hope in hell of anything over here. I was thinking of going to Billings, but I am not sure if they would have secondhand ones there?Is ther any other gatherings besides Billings that would be worth checking out ?

Litch Posted December 20, 2006 Share Posted December 20, 2006 Lots of shows apart from Billing as all the magazines and several other organisations seem to run one but they aren't the place to pick up a demountable, I think you could spend all summer over here doing all the shows and still not see one for sale. You need to check out the manufacturers & sales outlets as they are more likely to have S/H ones in stock. Also worth ringing around a couple of dozern motorcaravan dealerships and put the word out that you are after one as they get them in from time to time. Try LR specialists like Nene, I know they do 5th wheel vans and I think they may do the odd demountable as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kev Baldwin Posted December 20, 2006 Share Posted December 20, 2006 If it's for a 110 dbl-cab tehn that's going to be one seriously tiny demount camper body. 110 dbl-cab loadbed is smaller than a 90. Does such a thing even exist for the 110? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Litch Posted December 21, 2006 Share Posted December 21, 2006 Not too bad really, it is around the same as a decent caravan but a lot less than a decent motorcaravan (you have the base vehicle anyway). Don't think it will fit yours though, the photo shows it on a 130 DC and although it states it will fit a 110 I think that is a 110 HC and not a DC as the bed will be too short (maybe you could fit some extra wheels on the back of the unit and make your a 6-wheeler?). P.S. I was kidding about the wheels! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
