It kind of looks a good idea but then doesn't it make it so there are no rear seats when travelling?

Which would make it suitable only for 1-2 people, but you end up with capacity to sleep 4?

I guess it gives a more spacious campervan for couples.

I had similar thoughts.

Someone has plainly put a huge amount of work into this but I think the appeal may be limited. That said it may be very useful for the right person. Let's hope so.

There was a similar thing for a VW which someone posted a while back.

Robbing banks always reminds me of this wee clip.

Interesting. I seem to recall that (+ Bongo?) being advertised on ebay a year or two ago?
