Lyk 'n oulike wa. Sal graag 'n groter yskas wou insit met 'n vries gedeelte.
Very nice going to be popular. Don't need a big towing vechile. Agree with bigger fridge.
Looks a bit like the 2000 / 2001 Wilk Topaz...
Nice & light, a bonus as one get's older, / smaller tow vehicle RQD, rough road capable gives more destination options, but seems a bit pricey...
Biggest + factor for me would be it's not a CI product.....
Warren Ditto on your last sentence........... It means that it will last longer than just 2 or three owners and the maintenance is very low.
Dit lyk netjies.
Paul, its has a 12V battery and 220V systems. Its supplied with a 12m 220V cable. The fridge is 220V and the lights 12V.
For off-grid
Not a fan of the absorbtion units, I would rather go for the 12v / 220v compressor driven chest type freezer's such as Engel / Waco ETC with solar to drive... Costly but you will never look back
Along with: - Shelter (in your case the van), toilet / personal ablutions / scullary & cooking, really good refridgeration is one of the "key" elements for successful off-grid camping...
IMHO The absorbtion type fridges are only good for the likes of bread / milk and things you wanna keep cold, but not frozen.
Chest freezer design is better than front door design as it does not loose all the cold when you open them. But All of this I'm sure you know...
What tow vehicle would be ideal to tow the Sherpa Rambler
2008 Honda FRV 2litre Manual ????
See whether the loaded mass of the caravan does not exceed that of the tow vehicle, then you are legally OK. On the practical side, Sherpa gives the mass as 920 kg but does not indicate whether this is tarra or loaded- I guess the former and at possibly 1200 Kg loaded, I think your vehicle will be quite happy in fromt of the Rambler.
