Heavy metal


Smaller, teardrop caravans are popular on eBay with some fine examples popping up for sale. Many of these are home made or small production designs and can look a bit … rustic.
However, here is a coach-built design which really looks the business. 
It is a classic design but built in aluminium and steel and looks fantastic. The submarine-style portholes are a particularly neat touch. It only needs the addition of a periscope to look like a road-worth version of the Nautilus.
The trailer is fitted with battery, 2 ring and grill cooker, sink and fresh water tank and the rear-facing kitchen area is 304 grade stainless steel. The overall size of the trailer is 3 metres long and 1.4 metres wide.
The design was originally on eBay but the seller, Stephen Moffatt, is builder these to order and can be contacted at swiftfabs@aol.com

A barrel of fun

An unusual bow-topped mini-caravan has appeared on eBay. All the more unusual because it is self-built, immaculately finished and being sold so that the builder can get started on another one!


The timber top gives it a distinctly Romany feel and the inside is rather fine - there's even a flatscreen TV. The mini cooking area is displayed by our glamorous model …


 Here's a caravan which is different, striking and has a sense of humour too.
