what you want doesn't exist, full stop, end of story.
Yep, you directly answered the question raised in the title of this thread. Thanks
As far as 'take what you need' is concerned, everyone's needs are different. Do I need hot water for a three week holiday with two kids under 3? I say yes, you might say no. Do I need to plumb my drainage? Well I already have to cart 60l of water a day from the bore outlet 500m a way with no vehicle access. So to have to cart the grey water away as well isn't really much fun. (Bear in mind this is all based on tent camping not camper trailer).
Someone mentioned b-double earlier. It was close enough in our pre camper days. Full car and van. When we hired the camper it was full car and whatever we could strap to the camper which amounted to about the same, but fortunately the camper had much of the stuff we normally would have to pack (kitchen, water, lights, batteries and the rest).
I expect whatever camper I buy will be able to sit there ready to go at a moment's notice. So we can hitch it up, throw some food in and off we go. When it comes to bigger trips, then we may have to chuck a few more luxury items in that become needs for a long stay.
But what I really am trying to work out is, if there is nothing that will suit exactly what I am looking for, what's the closest I'm gonna find in my price range and how much canvas adding will I need to do for the longer stays when we want to set up and spread out. It's likely for a long weekend I won't care too much about lots of undercover space.
