It may have been my wife and I! We have a KA and regularly go camping with our Vango Diablo 600, chairs, table, stove, kitchen stand, calor gas bottle, sleeping bags, duvet, airbed, food and all the other bits and pieces. We have to put the back seats down, but it goes in fairly easily. We've heard people outside the tent before in amazement that it all came out of such a small car!

I have to ditto Wh1tehouse's comments. The wife and I always used her KA last year and we took everything and anything (no porta-loo though). With the back seats folded down it was amazing how much you got in it. There's quite a bit of room behind the front seats in the footwell.

It was quite satisfying seeing someone with a massive estate pull up and then comparing it to our little KA, but seemingly having similar amounts of gear.

 Hi Whi1house

You wern't camping at Scarborough ccc club site were you. Because thats where i saw the ka and diablo.

I have a fiesta and i manage to get everything in with two kids too. I have now bought a roof box so i can take extra things like clothes (campsites complained about me walking around in just my apron.

I have a punto and without my roofbox I would struggle! No portaloo and no 3 way fridge! I do have two kids though.

We invested in a little 7 inch portable freeview tv. It's great. But I would have to agree that you may have to make do with a bucket. It's not that far to the toilets!

Campers are great people - take the basics (inc. wine) and make friends.

I like this comment, If anyone is ever camping where I am I would be very happy to make friends, just don't forget the wine!!

We went on honeymoon a few years ago camping in the Dordogne....

We had a Khyam Classic XL and loadsa stuff... crammed into a VW Lupo AND still had room for Vino on the way back LOL

i borrowed my dads ka a few weeks ago while he used my galaxy

clostrophobia wasnt the word
