RV PROFILE
STEP INSIDE THIS OWNER'S VAN!
�
INSIDE THE HOTHAM
There was a massive turnout at Hilltop
Caravans’ second annual gathering. Almost
40 vans along with their owners – known as
‘Hilltopians’ – arrived at the Nagambie Lakes
Leisure Park, Vic, in mid February to swap
yarns, ideas and celebrate their lifestyle. The van’s rear-door layout is the popular front
bedroom, rear bathroom variety, with
everything else in between. This includes a
well-appointed nearside kitchen, a cafe-style
dinette on the offside, and a fridge between
the dinette and bathroom.
But one van stood out to us: this 2017 Hilltop
Hotham. Its owners, the lovely Brendan and
Ruth McMahon have travelled more than
30,000km with their rig and were only too
happy to open its door to me and chat about
life in their Hilltop over a cuppa. “The layout is great,” Brendan said. “We’re
happy with what we’ve got; it works well.”
“
And then there’s the fit and finish of the van,
which Brendan and Ruth are very pleased
with. Having a poke around, I could see why:
it’s very neat and tidy, with no rough edges or
poor joins.
THE LAYOUT IS GREAT
– WE'RE HAPPY WITH
WHAT WE'VE GOT.
