RV MINI REVIEW walls that Jayco says provide greater thermal and acoustic insulation compared to a standard ‘stick and tin’ rig. On the drawbar, the Adventurer sports a checkerplate storage box, complete with MaxTrax recovery boards, behind a mesh stoneguard. There’s also a gal-lined tunnel boot just behind. This tunnel boot, I should point out, is not accessible from the nearside, as it’s also home to a slide-out kitchen that comes complete with a two-burner stove, sink and some shelf/storage space. While the slide-out kitchen is a winner, the gas bayonet is difficult to access – we had to lie on the the ground to connect the gas line. The interior of the Adventurer is characterised by ample kitchen bench space, a generous dinette for two, a spacious bathroom and a number of other thoughtful touches. Our review van took in virtually no WA dust, despite the generous dust baths we traversed – the pressure hatch did its job. VERDICT HITS • Towing performance • Very good value for money • Internal and external storage options • Long list of standard features MISSES • Gas bayonet was difficult to access • Some visible cables in nearside overhead lockers – I’d like to see a cover for them FIT & FINISH starstarstarstarstar StarStarStarstar-half LAYOUT The kitchen is equipped with a 218L Dometic compressor fridge-freezer, a microwave, plenty of storage space, and a four-burner cooktop with griller and oven. starstarstarstarstar StarStarStarstar Taking everything into account, including the features in the bathroom – which include a top- loading washing machine and separate shower – the interior of the Jayco Adventurer has a lot to offer adventurous couples. starstarstarstarstar StarStarStar LIVING THE LIFE INNOVATION READ FULL STORY COMPLETE SPECS gorv.com.au 45
