Title: Ordered my new trailer today
Post by: UR-50-LO on August 10, 2012, 12:55:53 PM
So since selling my MDC offroad V2 I have been contemplating the purchase of a new MDC T-box.
Spent a weekend a few months ago inspecting them and weighing up the pros and cons and walked away waiting for my tax return before finalising my decision. With only a few concerns, nothing major just things I'd like to change such as the spare tyre carrier being too low and in the way of the rear hitch, kitchen lacking a fold out bench, tailgate cover being one piece and not enabling the kitchen to remain out and the stoneguard being held by cable ties. Anyway since then Steve Robson has joined the MDC crew and those items have now been corrected exactly as I would have done myself without the costs to my own wallet lol, so of course I took the plunge today :)

ETA: I have absolutely no affiliation to Market Direct Campers and believe me if I do not get what I paid for I will be the first to rant, shout, name & shame haha (Although I expect decent quality if it's anything like my previous trailer from them). I am happy that the service from Steve thus far has been great and can't wait to start modding the new trailer... Anyway just a post to release some of this built up excitement lol

and the stoneguard being held by cable ties.


don't worry you can spend $40k+ and the stone guard is still held on with cable ties so don't feel too bad

but get out and use it most importantly!!!!!! :D

Looks great from behind, might need some more happy snaps. Where is the first trip off too? Cable ties are cheap too, the old camper I replaced the nylon ones with steel, lasted a while longer
