At the pointy end of the caravan , you ’ ll find an offroad ball coupling that offers full range of movement on both axes . However , I would prefer a DO35 as I generally find the offroad ball style awkward . Not a deal-breaker ; just a personal preference .
A checkerplate toolbox with offside slide-out tray and two 4.5 gas cylinders are include too , along with a tap mounted on the offside rail . Just behind , in the body of the caravan , you ’ ll find a stainless steel slide-out kitchen . This self-supporting unit comes with a two-burner gas cooktop , a sink with hot and cold water , plenty of bench space , and even a drawer fridge at the end .
Towing this tandem-axle van through the twists and turns of the Dandenong Ranges was no challenge at all . It felt quite well weighted on the back of my MU-X and kept to heal at all times .
SUMMING UP
The Golf Grand Tourer 620 is designed and equipped for offgrid living for days at a time . With its decent 12V system , very comfortable interior layout and generous equipment list , this caravan would suit a retired couple wanting to do the big lap . It offers all the benefits of a large tandem-axle caravan without the need for a Land Cruiser for towing duties . It looks great , too – especially the interior !
