It's like Mr. Rogers meets camping. Something extremely charming about it

What a genuinely lovely bloke doing what he enjoys.

Have been watching some of the Japanese / Korean videos of people that have spent 30k on a purpose built tent, modular equipment - and then attached it to an £80k car - sitting miserably, silently, in a vehicle around the back of a hotel on some gravel while they pretend to rough it. This feels much more wholesome, and entertaining.

Easy to take for granted the production quality of the video in this until you stop and think about it. Much respect.

Ok, calm down! You have taken my comment and run off with it in the wrong direction. I'm fully aware that people live in car's but that was not what I was referring too and the tent I was referring to was the car awnings like the sort that give you an additional space or room as this tent on this car doesn't do that! So wind your neck in.

@@nicola_k-s car camping is about a secure enclosed environment for holidays. These awnings make you vulnerable. I've been a car camper for over 30 years. I'm not talking about living in cars. It's far safer than camping in a tent. It's also warmer and you don't get wet when it rains.

So what was the point for replying to my first comment? I was also referring to using in campsites too and not wild camping. I cannot see how they make you vulnerable if your maybe using like a porch on a campsite or if indeed you have pulled up in the woods like on this video. I never said anything about sleeping in it but to use as a covered seating area. I know quite a few people who micro camp and add a small car tent to either the side door or boot area just for extra space during the day and then lock themselves inside their vehicle at night. This is what I was referring too!! Plus there is more than 10,500 people car camping in the UK.

What a clever camping system. Just goes to show you do not need anything elaborate and expensive to have a comfortable camping experience. Super idea as not everyone has an SUV or truck.. One thing you can fit in small places and travel down trails. Love it! You always find the greatest camping equipment Andy. Snug as a bug in a rug. and dry., Better than sleeping on the damp ground when it is raining. Plus you can run a laptop and watch a movie at night using the car battery.. Don't recommend running the car heater incase of unhealthy fumes. Very slick to pack up and get on your way. Great video Andy. Can't wait to see what new products you are going to give a test run. Thanks for sharing. All The Best!

I love how he is comfortable with taking new, untested camping equipment out for a real world test.

There is something so charming about this video. Its so relaxing, and watching him just enjoy his day with that smile

That worked really well. When your not on your own you can always leave the seats as normal and take a separate tent, using the awning as a cooking / relaxing area.

Thanks :) rain is always nice (if you're dry).Nice little tent, I hadn't thought of that.

Hi Andy. Glad you missed Storm Babet. We really took a battering in Scotland, especially on the East Coast. A month's worth of rain in hours & flood defences that always worked were overwhelmed. Although, from a selfish POV, I do love watching your camping episodes that are in the rain (from the comfort of my abode). 😅🤞

I have had this vehicle, i10 the next gen 2013 model and bought it first hand. Had truly LOVED her, awesome mileage, good air conditioning/heater, easy pickup, every year celebrated her birthday and in 2021 had to let her go. Never bought a car then since.

Quite creative 👏 with that small car. Andy never failed to amaze me

Again, a top video. I love the fact you do different setups each time. I had a double bed platform in the back of my 110 with storage underneath worked a treat. I've now got a Freelander and have removed the rear seats and built a storage box in the back with a folding flap which extends to the dashboard to the storage box with a decathlon mattress I sleep better than I do at home. You can't beat a bit of vehicle camping.

Enjoyed the comments... I was flashing back to road trips in my 1980 Honda Civic... I would sleep in the reclining front seats, I tend to like sleeping reclined... I was up in a high elevation campground just outside Crater Lake Park in early July on a 3,000 mile road trip for vacation. I didn't have a tent/tarp setup. Just inside the car. Food was cold cuts and so on. I did have a 4 pound hollow fill sleeping bag... was in the passenger seat, nice warm sleep and woke up in the morning to frost on the inside of the windshield... I was the only person in the campground. A deer wandered through near me. I was close to the park entrance... my car camping was an easy way to get around for taking 35mm pictures... I later upgraded to my 1969 F250 with a canopy and bunks I built in the back of it... vacations were in July, so I didn't bother with fires... those tended to be forbidden because of wildfire issues... so a little Coleman single burner stove if I wanted to heat something up. Those were good trips. I put half a million miles on the Honda.

I love the sound of the rain
