Love it! Thanks for making that post, and for keeping us updated on your 130 (and travels) ... this is one of those threads that I get a little excited about, when I see new posts. Cheers.

Hi Robert,

Found this on Black Landy and thought of you...

http://www.blacklandy.eu/blboard/fo...mobil-235-2L&p=1033210&viewfull=1#post1033210









I remember you were talking about a Maltec cabin on the back and this reminded me of that conversation...

Yeah, I did think about that and played a bit with Photoshop, but I decided against that and Amadeus Matzker took up the idea and is now working with Maltec to build fantastic 110 Camper Defenders.

But beware, don't you venture too far into Blacklandy Forum, you may discover a few utterly amazing campers build on 130CC´s.

Hi Robert,

Oh, LOL ! Thanks for the "warning" about BL
I've already gone much too far into that forum, especially the 130 section :Wow1:

Please can you point me to where I can learn about Amadeus Matzker's Maltec Defender Campers ? (I did not see anything new on the Maltec website)

Thanks !

Frank,

it´s easy if you know where to look

Amadeus Matzker named it the "mdx" and you can find all the info on this website:

This is another really well build camper, based on the 130 TD4 Puma

Finally it continues....I couldn't wait any longer myself ;-)

I grabbed the opportunity and visited Ralf Berlit, the german importer of King, to service my 2.5" shocks, which we had fitted only days before I left with Eric Brandenburg´s Porsche 911 Safari for the Africa Eco Race 2012.
The shocks had now covered about 28.000 miles and had taken a severe beating (one piston severely bend though still working).
At the same time I also wanted to fix a few other things that were on my list for some time already.

I will upload some proper images tomorrow...
