So.... when I had to part with my beloved T4 camper (much sobbing) and get something smaller, cheaper at the pumps and less err...dieselly, I of course got a Roomster (as you do).
Ever since, I have pretended it is a T4. With just enough success to maintain the fantasy. (Liftout rear seats being the #1 decision criteria in choosing a Roomster, and avoiding low profile tyres the #1 reason to avoid the Scout variant - but oh my! - I could do with roof rails.)
I now have liftout ply floor panels with different fixtures depending on the task in hand. Fully loaded, it has a kitchen, cupboards, worksurfaces, cooker, sink, water tank, waste tank, wardrobe, toilet, bed. A tailgate shelter made from bits of a defunct camping tent is pretty useful. A different floor panel secures racking for when we are on family camping.
Project in hand is making a sectional plywood boat to slip into the back. Boat will have wheels (retracting a la undercarriage) and towable behind my folding bike.
Its proving reliable - which I put down to giving it the care as and when it needs at my local independant specialist.
Its not particularly fast, but I'll square up against a Ferrari any day. YES! Put us both on the start line of the standard quarter mile, and when those lights hit green, you'll see who is the first to cook up an omelette! Go Roomster!
