Its size is perfect for getting around the city at speed while at the same time being able to transform into a spacious “campsite” in minutes. It’s built for weekends, a trip to the beach, an evening camping under the stars or a week away at that music festival you’ve been waiting for all year.

It’s truly something special and the team should be proud.
