[ MOTORHOME ] CAMPY BY MAXMO ADVENTURE CAMPERS

- 

Whether you want to call it a motorhome or a campervan, the Maxmo Campy is, in a nutshell, a versatile recreational vehicle that provides luxury accommodation and travel for adventurous campers.

The vehicle can be used as normal during the week when carting the kids to school or going shopping, but is also ready to hit the road over the weekend to go camping.

In a flash it transforms from a minibus to a bedroom to a lounge/dinette.

Leon Ras, the owner of Maxmo Adventure Campers, says his builds are focussed on quality and convenience – almost all the customising is done with imported products.

The Campy is the smallest in the Maxmo range, but the clever designs offer almost everything you get in a more conventional motorhome (including a toilet).

EXTERIOR & ENGINE

The “mini camper” comes in three versions: The standard Campy 81kW (manual), the M49 and Campy Trend.

The vehicle we took out for a test (and some camping) is the M49, based on a VW Caddy Maxi Crewbus Long Wheel Base. The 2-litre turbodiesel engine is mated to a 6-speed Direct-Shift Gearbox (DSG), and provides 103 kW and 320 Nm. That’s ample power and torque if you want to tow as well (tow hitch optional extra).

From the outside, the Campy looks almost like a standard VW Caddy, except for the addition of the pop-top Reimo roof.
