Maverik Posted October 24, 2013 Share Posted October 24, 2013 Hmmm I'm not entirely sure what to make of that... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CwazyWabbit Posted October 24, 2013 Share Posted October 24, 2013 It looks really cool ...... however what does it really give you over a tent? I can't imagine it's cheap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FridgeFreezer Posted October 24, 2013 Share Posted October 24, 2013 Um, how is this different to the vast array of demountable campers already out there? http://www.5thwheels.co.uk/northstar-demountable-camper-1.html Edit: a few Defender based ones visble here: http://www.demountablecamperclub.co.uk/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maverik Posted October 24, 2013 Share Posted October 24, 2013 To be fair I think it does look quite fun, but wholly impractical in my mind... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big.Mike Posted October 24, 2013 Author Share Posted October 24, 2013 Cos it looks like a space ship! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tacr2man Posted October 24, 2013 Share Posted October 24, 2013 looks like a remodeled back of a defender , aluminium, boxy , entry from both ends , and windows ? The only plus is its demountable ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CwazyWabbit Posted October 24, 2013 Share Posted October 24, 2013 Cos it looks like a space ship! As it looks like a lunar landing module once deployed I now understand Turning up at a camp site with your own space module should certainly generate a few stares Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
simonr Posted October 24, 2013 Share Posted October 24, 2013 Looks interesting. I like the idea of a pod you can fork-lift on & off - and potentially even stack once on the ground. The leg arrangement looks over-engineered, but that may just be aesthetic. Si Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mike4444244 Posted October 24, 2013 Share Posted October 24, 2013 I like the way you can arrive and demount it straight off the car without forklifts etc using its legs looks cool, I bet it's reassuringly expensive, especially if you're used to working with NASAs budget!
