Bed in a 90?

<< < (3/4) > >>

Bunnie:
how about something like caravans have....
but put the centre bit up into the roof when not in use?

L90OOK:
Or just have a roof tent :wink:

Defender:
If I get the camera out tomorrow, I'll get a photo of my fold down bed in my 90 & post it here.
It folds down from the side & then the foot end folds out over the passenger seat after folding this forwards. The bed sits on the centre bulkhead & a leg at the back.
I've used it many times including a weeks trip across France & around the Alps and for 2 weeks during our Lands End/John O Groats trip.

Defender:
Right, photos as follows:
Bed when folded up against side. The wooden box underneath holds my recovery gear.

With main part folded down & leg to hold rear.

With passenger seat folded forward & foot section folded out. This simply rests on the seat back. The foot section needs to be narrower than the main section to allow it to fold forward.

With mattress in place & curtains up. For the mattress, I cut down an old caravan cushion.

The bed is hinged at the side from a batten of wood attached to the inside of the body capping.

Hope this helps :)
