    Yes his face is the same, but he looks like a real bushranger now, fitted into the scenery very well, with his nice deep voice reciting poetry, watch 60minutres next Sunday, it was meant to be on tonight but the election, bumped it....:eek:

    Nah Skid, mine has "Nissan recovery vehicle" on the back window right above the Jeep one....

    Mine is a true gas guzzler...... the first of the 80 series with 3F petrol engine... have considered updating it many times for a turbo diesel but I am a little rough on my 4wd's.... at least with the old 80 I don't cry when I dent it or scrape the sides down overgrowth..

    It is a Kimberly Karavan, they made trailers for years now have a Karavan version, It is all enclosed, the top pops up, the bed slides out, it has reverse cycle a/c, shower, toilet, sink, m/wave and fridge...a good investment for luxury camping.....

    We bought one of the first in 07 for 62K, they are now up around 90k for all options, or one like ours is 85k...we bought it now so it can depreciate through our business, as Rodney goes away to work at times....then when we decide to stop work we will have it all paid for...yes pretty good quality...Rodney did some modifications on it though....I think you can buy second hand ones quite reasonably...

    Looks like a great trip Jennie. That camper would make camping almost bearable!
