It's a pretty basic caravan, but it does the job for us. We won't be travelling around Aus in it, but it's great for a couple of weeks away.

We've done a few trips to QLD & VIC and our next trip is planned for the South Coast of NSW.
Good work mate but youre a braver man than me drilling holes in the roof, especially those 4 side brackets which look like theyre in the troughs where water will pool.
People often mount them on frames and limit the roof holes.

Working in a van yard ive seen so many that have eventually leaked through and ruined ceilings.
when we were looking for a van we found a nice 1 owner, but whoever had replaced the awning guide on the pop top positioned it too far in and so the tek screws went on the inside of the skirt, didnt penetrate the inside ceiling skin but leaked through and destroyed the pannelling after only 2yrs.
