You may have to crawl under it like the rest of us.

Andrew,

I reckon it will be ok when the camper is removed - lol, we will see latter on in the month when I get it down here.

Congratulations.

Beautiful looking vehicle.

Keep an eye out for us in our white Trakka in April. We'll be the ones waving to all the VW vans as we tour around Tassie.

Well done Shifter. Now all you have to do is get that dark grey ute lower body resprayed to match the main body colour and you'll have a nicely sorted rig.

Are you going to get a slide on/slide off tray body as well so you can use the ute properly when the camper body is not in play?

[Shifter]

The idea is to use the VW as a ute when not in use for the camper. There is a small snag in this as on the port side - sorry I'm a marine man, left side, there is a small box with electrical connections and an extention for the fuel filler. This may take a little sorting out but I'm hopeful that I can get some removable alloy sides made up to suit and some roof bars, have to carry my Kayak.

Good work on landing that one Shifter. The slide-on must be quite a rare build!

It's a LANCE 825 (truck camper) as they call them in the states. Very well built compared to Aussie built units and extremely comfortable for my old bones!

Can you get some detail on the inside please?

Looks very smart!

Rob,

Go to the Lance web site - http://www.lancecamper.com/home/index.html

Look for the model 825 - it's pretty much indenticle apart from the options. Mine is fully optioned.

It's a very well built and comfortable rig.

Well, finally my new rig is in Hobart. Picked her up in Melbounre yesatrerday and drope down to Hobart this monring.

Now to get her over the pits and registered.

Andrew, how are you fixed for a 15,000 k service some time soon??

What a dream to drive - average of 13.5 l per 100 for the trip down, pretty good with a huge camper on the back!
