Camper boxes are living elements that can be fitted into almost any large car and removed just as quickly. Interesting for non-van owners: There are also models that turn the estate car or family car into a camper.
Most camper boxes on the market cost around 1000 euros and fit into standard vans and compact vans. They usually consist of boxes with roller drawers that can be extended to the rear when the tailgate is open. In most cases, the kitchen is also operated standing behind the vehicle. On top of the boxes is the lying surface which, depending on the model, can be folded up to form a bench seat. A few examples: https://ququq.info/ www.kauai-camper.de www.vanessa-mobilcamping.de www.sipras.si/en www.vanable.de www.campitsimple.com www.dielectric.de www.amdro.co.uk. https://www.reimo.com/campingbus-ausbau/campingboxen/

These manufacturers have come up with a particularly beautiful brand name: www.fluchtfahrzeug.com
A clever idea is the car canopy bed (www.autohimmelbett.de), which is suspended and pulled up with straps. At bedtime, the made-up bed is lowered.
There is even a camper box for small cars, the Ellobox. https://ellocamping.de Of course, it doesn't come with a bed, but it does have a fully equipped kitchen and everything else you need for outdoor living, such as USB ports to charge your smartphone.
The beaver box www.biberbox.de, which can be plugged together when needed, is also pretty. If you don't need it, it can be completely dismantled and stowed away as a small stack of boards. It even fits in or under the closet, the manufacturers claim. It's also nice that the website offers instructions on how to build the beaver box yourself.
Which brings us to the DIY camper boxes. As with practically everything, there are also numerous construction plans and instructions. /www.spike05.de/diy-campingbox/ Here is the sophisticated version made of aluminum. Alusteck: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QbbNcrt2-vY
If you fancy building your own, but don't want to ride around with it all the time, you can delve into this topic. What the Ride editorial team would be interested in: Does anyone have a solution for the normal station wagon without a high roof? And how do you do it with the bikes?
