Do you live in SA?, if so I thought you had bought a caravan a small one, have you now gone back to a campertrailer?, I found with my Vitara 2.4lt, that it is much cheaper to tow with, my camper weighs in at 670kg, fully loaded. Am now looking at fitting a diesel heater, as we are cold weather campers. We never camp in summer.

Hi sunsetstrip,

It is all about what suits you & your own style of camping, along with the places you like to camp. If you can easily tow & set up this camper, then that is a major advantage, rather than struggling each time you get out which will no doubt put you off.
