Front Tvan hatch. Didn’t secure it properly & it flicked up & smashed at 80kph. Have to replace entire hatch as one of the moulded hinge joints is damaged. Bugger!

Ouch.
TVAN.. I missed that post. I know you were looking for a tear drop or 'bunk only' type unit.

Bugga... on the Tvan Forum it seems to happen a lot but only once per owner (if that makes sense)

Yea that makes sense, not something you would do twice.
Hope it doesn't cost too much Cuppa.

2010 model. Our first outing with it a few days ago, just 20 kms from home to aquaint ourselves with it. Beats the rooftop tent hands down! Found setting up the tent to be quick & easy. Getting the awning right took a bit of practice first time around. Was impressed by the amount of space inside the tent. Inner spring mattress was pretty comfy. Sat watching the pelicans swimming by MrsTea commented “ I think I could do this long term”. Just as well, ‘cos that’s the plan. ET’s right, we (I) are not the first to fail to secure the front hatch properly. Because it’s hinged at the back such forgetfulness inevitably ends in tears.

$300 + postage + sealant + my time to remove the old one & fit the new. Grrrr.

That looks like an awesome setup Cuppa. Spewn about the hatch and the replacement costs. But it's still a damn site better than a tent on the ground. Well done mate

Looking at these photos it looks like you have 9 solar panels, you must use a lot of power.
