Question on Vans with Caravans built on....

[Looser cruiser]

Tried to help out here with name googled it then started looking at photos got dragged into a black hole for about an hour its like the twilight zone out there I've never seen so many weird and wonderful vehicles wow. But it looks like the Australians and New Zealander's have mastered this concept but still never came up with a name for it so we should give it one. Should be fun.

7.5ton Mercedes, nicely done as you say and the couple who owned it had been all over Europe in it.

Popular with the classic commercial scene. Stick a caravan on the back of the truck and disguise it as a load.

all a matter of perception of course. there are some really badly done bodge ups,there's a few round here- wouldn't get on a c&c site but i doubt they care, more concerned about being warm and dry i expect,
and a lot of modern motorhomes, while looking nice and shiny, are built in the same cost-cutting, weight-saving way as a caravan, just a different shape, so putting one on a flatbed or chassis cab isn't much of a leap ,especially when you realise that early Eriba and Airstream m/homes were built exactly like that, and i'd love one of either !
so i reckon it's a good money saving idea,and buying a caravan all ready fitted with working appliances and a good interior means you could get the equivalent of a 40-50 grand m/home for a fraction of the price.

You mean, like this one!!View attachment 48503View attachment 48504View attachment 48505

I think you'd get locked up for that around these parts, not something I've ever come across
