There is ample storage space in the kitchen . In particular , I liked the pot drawer fitted beneath the 188L compressor fridge-freezer . I also liked that the plumbing beneath the kitchen sink had been sectioned off with laminated ply .
Upholstered in faux leather , the L- shaped dinette is particularly comfortable . The controller for the standard diesel heater is within arm ’ s reach , as is a 12V fan . The heater is positioned under the dinette lounge , and a BMPRO battery management system and Mini Boost 2 DC-DC charger are mounted inside an overhead locker .
The forward bedroom is complete with overhead lockers , that side wardrobe , reading lights , and a couple of under-bed drawers . The drawers are welcome ; however , one of them doesn ’ t open all the way due to the dinette table ’ s telescopic leg , but it opens far enough for easy access .
Now , the Australis High Country is available in ‘ Extreme ’ format , which gives it a massive range of extra features , as seen in the aforementioned 14ft 6in version , and in standard format , which is what we have here . But that ’ s not to say this van is really lacking anything . Among the internal features , there ’ s a reverse-cycle airconditioner , a microwave , a sound system , TV , speakers , and more .
