Title: Which hardfloor
Post by: michaeldevlin on January 01, 2014, 09:38:27 PM

I'm looking at getting a hard floor camper under $15k does any one have any advice, looking at ABC campers, Savannah explorer 2 and ecomate/Gaurdian, Some of them look identical?

We have an imported Leisure Matters ranger hard floor. It's the same as others imported by other companies. It cost us $12k in Sydney and we have had to make a range of modifications to allow us to be comfy in it. For the price we paid though we are very happy with our camper. Many here will try and talk you out of the imports however if you know what you're getting and are comfy with it, then don't let that stop you. Be aware of the mods needed and budget them in and you should be ok.

We like our camper. It's an easy set up. Sure we had to add and change a few things but in the end it gets us out in the camp grounds and on hols and it was in our budget and that's all tat matters

Hi Socks,

You'd probably still be doing that ^, no matter how much you spent.........

Are you in FNQ Michael? As you mention ABC CTs in Edmonton.
My CT is very similar to the Leisure Matters CT and my my brother owns one of the Ecomates. Send me a PM with your phone number and I will give you a run down on each type. Muz.

Keep an eye on the classifieds also, as you sometimes stumble over some bargains.  We picked up a '99 Kimberley for under $15,000.

Have fun looking at them all!

We just have to justify 6k difference between an ecomate and a Brumby... ???
