4x4 camper

No way dude.

Ceck out the Maxi Mog.

I rather like the Russian Urals though.

That is fantastic, and the best bit is they also can provide you with a mini predator, so you can play at being in the CIA.

When i win the lottery, this shall be mine!

[TD="width: 270, bgcolor: #6699CC, colspan: 2, align: left"] The MaxiMog® UAV (Unmanned Air Vehicle) is a design based upon the Pointer surveillance vehicle designed by Paul MacReady and his team at Aerovironment Corp. It is electrically powered and under ideal conditions can fly up to 10 miles away from the vehicle relaying live video back to the MaxiMog® vehicle or trailer.

A gyro stabilization system provides automatic level flight even in highly turbulent air conditions and the onboard lithium ion batteries provide up to 30 minutes of flight duration.

Wow. I would like to know more about your truck. Is it under 7.5 ton? I will pm you

 

[Biker]

How about the MAZ-7917 of the Soviet era? A diesel-electric locomotive top half mounted on the engine, chassis and running gear of a nuclear missile transporter.

I'm guessing this beasty comes with it's own wine cellar, workshop, jacuzzi and attic. Wonder what the MPG is or would it be GPM?

Maximogs are nice but a bit cramped, I'd prefer a Merc Zetros...

First post outside of new members forum, so be gentle with me..

This is my 4x4 camper:


This was taken on our winter drive to Norway and back.
It's a Mitsubishi delica (a van body on a shogun chassis and engine.)
They are a "grey import" into the UK so quiet rare.
Best part is the price... mine cost £1400.

Some more pics:


Camp view:









And if you want something a bit more modern; this is what they look like new in Japan, they will be available over here in a few years:

Here is my 4x4 camper, Mitsubishi Delica 1996 2.8 basically a van body on a pajero chasis and engine.
Norway: Winter





Wales:




The best bit....£1400

 

[Robbi]

Class !

I love those Delicas

 

[snozz]

Have you any more pics of the inside of the Delica? I have one and would be interested in seeing what camping modifications you've made.

 

[Mad Buzzard]

We have a rock n roll bed we put in for long trips, and use a "Snapon" copy Halfords tool chest for cooking on.
Summer we stick that in the boot and winter behind drivers seat. I will see if I have any photos of inside, the bed is out at the moment.
Have a look on the owners club forums, there are a few conversions on there.

Delicas are excellent off roaders, I've got a mate with a fully kitted one and it does anything the Landys and Vits are doing. Plus he can get his 3 kids to school in it.

I wouldn't mind one as a campervan, they're great value for money.

A friend of mine has a Mazda Bongo, not that expensive 2nd hand

 

[Mad Buzzard]

Bongos are very similar to Delicas, I think the Mitsubishi just edges it in the looks stakes though.

 

[scottishpinz]

Nice little compact 4x4 with very basic camper conversion:

 

[Mad Buzzard]

That yours? Very nice.

Ooh yeah! That's the one.

Anyone hoofing around the countryside in a Mitsubishi Delica?
Converted as a camper - photos.

 

[Wandering Fred]

There are a couple of older ones (L300) on Ebay at the moment.
And a few videos of conversions on Youtube.
