MINI has revealed a trio of getaway cars in form of a Clubvan Camper, Cowley Caravan and Countryman ALL4 Camp. Each reflects different aspects of the rise in popularity of camping and festivals.
The 2013 MINI Cowley caravan is a luxurious overnight solution and all the mod cons are fitted, including two comfortable sleeping berths, a twin-burner gas stove and a water tank complete with pump and sink facility. The on-board battery is charged via a solar module and there's a 230-volt connection to power the fridge, TV/DVD and audio equipment. The teardrop-shaped trailer is a genuine head-turner with sliding windows and weighs less than 300 kg.
The cars have been developed around the 'maximum touring pleasure with minimal footprint' philosophy, and illustrate the principle of creative space utilization for which MINI is renowned.
