Great video, nice editing, and very cool to find that someone has already done an idea I've been thinking about for a while down south in Australia. Commercial RTTs are overblown in cost when good quality regular tents are so much cheaper and you just need a platform to get them off the dirt. I'm hoping to come up with a much thinner profile, around 15cm or about 6 inches, closed. Must have been a great trip. Love that you did this for a wagon. Thanks so much for recording your efforts and sharing.
Already done yours! I've used it in total for over 20 nights outside including a 10 day trip to Italy and it worked perfectly! I used your hinges and upgraded some parts for better mantainance. I loved the idea of the walls on the lower part and used it when it was too cold with a decathlon mini oven inside to keep me warm. Now I'm working on expanding this area and at the moment it looks great! Thank you!
I’m so glad I came across this video. I have the same tent but the 4 person size. I have been planning on doing this to a trailer. Thank you for the video!❤

This is so funny, I have thought of this, even made a drawing with parts and all... Even with the exact same tent! Never got around to it, glad someone did!
Nice build of course. Nifty table that. I have never used roof tent, so the idea is a bit foreign for me. Best solution I had when on the road was to sleep in the car. But I had a tent to put all the stuff in. In camp I put all the lugagge in the tent and there was lot of room in the car. Maybe even quicker set up time. Rooftent also takes more gas.
Thank you for sharing your ideas and talents. Wish I were there. Your build is creative, inspiring my mind to create a better camping tent atop my utility trailer. Happy trails. Steven, Utah, USA
Great build, I am glad that you had a bit of an adventure with it. I have a V50 and I wanted to put a commercial roof top tent on it. My issue is that the tent is +-80kg, then add two adults and I was not sure if the rails will take the mass. Ultimately I put the tent on a trailer. Your solution seems to be a lot lighter.
Sure it will take the weight. Car roof rack ratings 50-75 kgs mean that load that heavy becomes dangerous in case of accident, sudden stop etc. Roof rails will easily take 300-400 kgs while car is stationary
This is so well built, great work! I'm planning to drive from germany all the way to north cape in august, hopefully all goes well and my car doesn't break down on this 9000km roadtrip ^^
Thats amazing, just amazing. I will try to do this myself, can't wait to drive to some cozy places and have a grate time with my kid! Thank you for sharing
I used to have the exact same Volvo series, great car, now got a Citroen C4 Grand SpaceTourer, which would be ideal for this project, thanks for sharing

I am glad you enjoyed the project. 15 Cm overall thickness is achievable but you can only use a 2 inch mattress - maybe an inflatable one? 🙂

I would love to see photos! 🙂
Can you share some photos? I am also very curious!
I've been camping for some 40 years and I gotta say...these rooftop tents just seem like the silliest thing I've ever seen.
I agree! :D
Se così vuoi pensare..
volvo drivers are the best people! love it !
Great big job and thank you for the video. Hello from Genoa , Italy
Good job Estonians! Greetings from Lithuania!
I’m so glad I came across this video. I have the same tent but the 4 person size. I have been planning on doing this to a trailer. Thank you for the video!❤
I always thought of a foldable roof platform to just throw a Decathlon tent on top but this is ingenious! Thumbs up and greetings from Germany.
Danke! 😌
TÜV sagt nein :(

@@jetblack2602 sorry, ehrlich gesagt wollte ich nur n doofen über deutschen Spruch bringen
I mean, of course it's always windy here when you only visit the most windy places.
hahah😆
You are very clever, I enjoyed watching your build and am inspired!
Fun to watch your craft, and a bit sorry for the harsh winds in your trip. Nice work, nice life! Thanks for your post
i thought about a tent like this just a few days ago.

Great job!!! Good luck from Hungary!!

Круто! Уазик мелькнул на щаднем фоне 😮
you made it through the decathlon!!! You won!!!
Nice build of course. Nifty table that.

Mate, it´s a VOLVO! I am sure your roofrails can handle that weight! 😜
@@CraftAndu true! It’s also the family car and I’ll be in deep poo if I break it 😀
