RV REVIEW
The van is framed up in welded aluminium and clad in composite aluminium and black checkerplate . It ’ s undeniably a good-looking unit , with a certain streamlined appeal .
On the drawbar , you ’ ll find holders to suit tow 9kg gas cylinders ( cylinders not provided ) and a ball coupling . Nothing wrong with that – the humble 50mm ball coupling has been integral to Aussie caravans for decades !
The nearside is home to an electric awning – great ! – as well as a fold-down picnic table and a tunnel boot towards the front . The rear has a spare wheel mounted to the bumper , and a reversing camera is included too . Oddly enough , I appreciated the fact that MDC had given this van a rear window – these are so rare to see on caravans nowadays , and I felt like it really added to the internal ambience and natural light .
The lithium battery is secured inside a vented steel box mounted to the offside chassis rail . Nearby , you ’ ll find the water fillers . I only bring these up because I appreciated the fact that a ) the steel surround of each filler was engraved with its corresponding tank , and b ) the mains water inlet was located within the body of the van too , rather than left to hang off the chassis rail . A much neater finish .
