Ive seen teardrop ones but this is far smaller than all the  ones ive seen , its just about the size of a trailer  , thats a ford escort estate towing it not  high at all  ,  Quite  cute tho  .  looked  pretty new to me  as well

try googling tiny tears caravans. they are an american site gives loads of info if you want to give it ago making your own. mine was made by someone at devon conversions back in the 70,s .its called the devon piskette. when i first had it we used to go to vanfest or other vw shows with it .it caused a stir as nobody really had teardrops then..in fact it was 20 yrs ago i bought mine .time does fly.
