Self-made camping roof tent on the Land Rover Defender!

If you are looking for a practical camping roof structure for the classic one Land Rover Defenderwho should get the Do-it-yourself idea by Felix Collier. Felix created the structure himself and told the magazine about it engine1.com: "I just built it because I love to explore nature! I like to be off-piste, far from the crowds and mainstream routes. I enjoy nothing more than jumping in the driver's seat in the morning and seeing where the day leads me.“That should of course be possible. The tiny one roof structure has many amenities like Wood paneling from Kiefer and the Redwoodtree (Worktop, back wall etc.) and also black Valchromat (Wood fiber material) - a type of colored MDF plywood that is moisture resistant and fire retardant - was installed.

There is also one 2 KW diesel heating with one 5-liter fuel tank to keep the cabin warm at night. With cool details like Underfloor tool drawers for stowing, a big one foam mattress, which are also called Sitzgelegenheit and many smaller details round off the roof structure. By the way, the roof rack can after moved back to make room for opening the roof. The vehicle is a dark blue Defender with cream stripes on the sides and one Lift Kit and BF Goodrich off-road tires.
