Theoretically, a turbocharged gasoline powered car should not see heavy duty towing due to high exhaust temperatures.

So in order to get inside the whole wall has to fold down? And that has the mattress glued to it too?

Well that was an official MINI Clubman concept. So yes I would think that it would be possible.

No bathroom, I wouldn't bother with it. Plus sleeping outside blows.

No it doesn't. Sleeping under the stars is the best.

Yea, lack of bathroom blows. But sleeping outdoors can be cool, depending where and with who.

Trailer needs stripes, or MINI needs stainless steel trim.

Misquotes and heat are all I think of here in South West FL. Where did the pic go?

Most Australian pop-up campers have no bathroom and, calculating the exchange rate, I'm blown away by how expensive they are. Some can easily top $40,000 with the whole nine yards: swing-out stove with oven and stainless steel sink, hitch mounted full size cooler and dual voltage power with solar panels. And no bathroom. Odd. I guess the Australians don't mind going to the bathroom with a shovel.
