I have had a real close look at their two hardfloor rear fold models in their workshop last year. At that stage they didn't have the soft floor or the forward fold models.
The paint finish (painted by them) on all four CT's I have looked at were very average. Overspray and paint in a lot of areas it shouldn't have been.

What I found disappointing, was that the owners never admitted to using imprted components when I brought up the subject. Don't get me wrong, I got nothing against imported CTs as I own one. I just don't like sales people being dishonest about it.
I am sure you are aware that their FF model is also imported. Just make sure you have a rel close look over their CT's when you inspect.

I don't know of anyone who owns one to give you a better reference. Good luck with you Hunt.

G'day Bluejay,

Mate I haven't heard of anyone on here saying they'd bought one, (though am probably wrong) maybe ask the Cairns dealer how many of the model u r interested in have they sold..... most good dealers will be happy for you to talk with other satisfied customers..... maybe this could be a option for you...

Good luck.  :cheers:

Hi Bluejay,
I mentioned your post to my uncle who has a friend who knows some one who has a work mate who heard something about them. He's disappointed but understands. If you change your mind, I can let him know.

I too had a look over there rear fold hard floors last year as I travel there for work quite often I thought thier finish was average. Rough edges from cutting, overspray, tent looked sagy and loose but may have been the way it was set up.
I asked if I could see the unit set up and the lady there took a deep breath and sighed before saying "If you must". She then tried to open it up and did not seem to know what to do therefore I hadnt been back. She did however admit to me that the tubs were imported and the rest fitted out in their workshop in Cairns

If you give them a call, you can make an appt with them and they will go through the whole CT with you. I was there for at least an hour when I checked their CTs out.
