Well I have just bought 58bernie's camper and cannot wait to get it up to Cairns !!!

Now one heading up this way. ;D

I may ring John at Trackabout to find who delivers campers to Cairns.

All I need now is a 4wd !!!

Congradulations McGirr :)

Sounds like a bloody good excuse to go pick it up yourself(s), & try it out on the way back  ;)

Nice camper.  Looks like it will be destined to do plenty of trips up the Cape.

What sort of 4by are you looking to buy?

Very nice McGirr - heaps of storage up front! As Dazza says, looks like a good, solid unit.

Congrats on the new toy!

Ian I had to sell the trackabout for financial reasons. As much as I would love another one I could not afford it. This has everything I need and for $8100 it was in the budget. Where's a lotto win when you need it. Also plenty of room for the Swedish backpackers  ;D
