Notice they don't show putting up the extra awnings after saying that up to that stage it is a one person set up.

Still doesn't have the suspension like track trailer do which I think is still the best around . Interesting construction with Steel tube though

Track Trailer are promoting the "Made in Australia" aspect a lot now. (seemingly more so as of this morning...)

Definitely not my style, seems a bit too plastic for me. I can see the attraction of Australia wide warranty/service. Not sure it does enough different from anything else on the market, some good ideas here and there like keeping everything (including spare tyre) inside the camper.
Storage seems a bit light on?
2005 Jayco Dove - sold
2003 Coromal Pioneer XC

Brij

Lack of storage was my initial thoughts as well.
Their custum made, shaped canvas bags (and not very big) have to be, as nothing else would fit in the available spaces.
I was going to comment (negatively) on pantry and fridge layout, but just had a look at Tvan and it isn't much better.

while I'm a fan of various bags for storage. (your should see my collection of Aldi green canvas bags)

my wife hates the idea... so she wasn't impressed with the ARB camper.

she took one look at the walk around video and said that it looked like a two person Portaloo.

Now I can't unsee that...
