CARAVANNING IS TRULY multinational. We can buy vans from Germany, Poland, Slovenia, Turkey – and now Iceland. Broad Lane Leisure is importing the Mink 2.0
Sports Camper, a teardrop van designed by an Icelandic firm and made in Latvia.
We went to view this distinctive mini-caravan at Broad Lane’s Kenilworth branch.
Mink’s distinctive exterior has yellow trim, alloy wheels and large round doors
Pitch and set-up
With its bright yellow trim, smart alloy wheels and large circular doors, the Mink is certain to turn heads on the road.
It should be a fairly stable tow, not just because of its MTPLM of 750kg, but also because it sits on a conventional Al-Ko chassis. The monocoque shell is solidly built, not at all like the fragile-looking tin boxes some mini-caravans can resemble.
