🚐 Meet Hector the Hardkorr Xplorer Hector is a fully upgraded, pet-friendly rooftop camper trailer built for genuine off-grid comfort. Hot showers on demand, 240V power without a generator, a fully equipped kitchen, a queen memory foam mattress in the rooftop tent, and 210 litres of water on board. Setting Hector up is genuinely easy. Every hirer receives short video guides before they leave home covering everything from hitching up to making camp, plus a full in-person walkthrough at pickup. Whether this is your first time towing or your first time using a camper trailer, you will leave feeling completely prepared. Most hirers have camp set up within minutes of arriving. Just bring your food, drinks and clothing. Hector handles the rest. ⚔ True Off-Grid 240V Power Most camper trailers need a powered site or a noisy generator to run 240V appliances. Hector does not. Fitted with a Hardkorr 2000W pure sine wave inverter, a 240Ah iTechworld Pro lithium battery and 340W of rooftop solar, Hector delivers genuine 240V power wherever you camp. Run the supplied induction cooktop, charge laptops, cameras and devices, or power small household appliances without thinking twice about it. No generator. No powered site required. šŸ› ļø Comfort and Shelter Sorted The rooftop tent sits on top with a built-in staircase for easy access and a queen memory foam mattress for a proper night's sleep. A 270 degree awning gives you generous shade and weather protection, with full awning walls included to close things in when the weather turns. A tropical roof kit is fitted at the tent entrance for added wet weather protection. Hector is pet friendly. Just let me know if you are bringing a furry mate along. šŸ³ A Proper Camp Kitchen Hector's kitchen is fully stocked and ready to go. All you need to bring is your food, drinks and cooking basics like oil, salt and pepper. The setup includes a slide-out stainless steel kitchen with dual prep benches, a plumbed hot and cold water sink, a two burner gas cooktop, an induction cooktop, and a 75 litre Brass Monkey fridge freezer. The kitchen is completely equipped with pots, pans, cooking utensils, plates, bowls, cups, coffee mugs and cutlery. A 240V travel kettle and a stovetop kettle for the gas cooktop are both included. For those who take their coffee seriously, an Aeropress and hand grinder are included. A large cast iron Dutch oven is also included for campfire cooking. A Ziggy hooded single burner BBQ is available as an optional add-on for $5 per day. 🚿 Hot Showers Anywhere Unlike the standard Hardkorr Xplorer, Hector has been professionally upgraded with a Duetto 12V electric hot water system, fully plumbed and ready to use. Switch it on, let it heat, plug in the shower rose and adjust the temperature with the built-in dial. No gas bottles. No complicated hose setups. A full-height privacy tent is included for showering and toilet use, giving you comfort and privacy wherever you are camped. A premium Thetford Porta Potti 365 is available as an optional add-on for a small daily fee. šŸ”‹ Power and Onboard Systems iTechworld 240Ah Pro lithium battery Hardkorr 2000W pure sine wave inverter Two 170W solar panels, 340W total 12V Anderson plug to charge while towing 240V power inlet for powered caravan parks Rooftop tent with USB ports, 12V socket and ambient LED lighting Bluetooth Elecbrakes controller available as an optional add-on if required šŸ’§ Water Capacity 170L onboard water tanks Capacity to carry two 20L water jerry cans Total water capacity of 210L More than enough for extended off-grid stays without needing to constantly top up. 🧰 What's Included Four camp chairs and two outdoor tables Large ground mat Coleman three-person bonus tent for kids or extra guests Privacy tent Large cast iron Dutch oven Log splitter Aeropress and hand coffee grinder 240V travel kettle and stovetop kettle All cleaning supplies Cordless drill, blower and screw-in tent pegs Basic tools 🚐 Specs and Towing Information Model: 2024 Hardkorr Xplorer 2.2 Rooftop camper trailer sleeping two adults in the rooftop tent plus up to three in the bonus tent Tare weight: 1,350kg ATM: 2,200kg Towball weight: 140kg Tow vehicle required: large SUV or 4x4 Electric brakes fitted.

Just let me know your travel plans when you book Minimum hire period is three days šŸŽ„ Set Up with Confidence from Day One Before your hire begins, you will receive a set of short video guides covering everything from hitching up to making camp. Clear, practical, and easy to follow whether this is your first time or you are just unfamiliar with this particular setup. On pickup day, you get a full in-person walkthrough so you leave knowing exactly how everything works. This is something hirers mention in almost every review, and it is something I take seriously. You should feel confident and ready to go, not figuring things out in the dark at a campsite. šŸ“¦ Delivery and Pickup Delivery is available within 250km of the Sunshine Coast for those without a suitable tow vehicle. A per kilometre fee applies. Enquire at the time of booking. For hirers based in Brisbane or the Gold Coast, I am happy to arrange a halfway meetup for pickup and return. Just mention it when you enquire and we will work something out. šŸ’¬ Discounts Hires of seven days or more receive a discounted rate. Get in touch for a quote. šŸ›£ļø Road-Tested and Ready Hector is not a weekend-only camper. He has already completed a 20-day, 6,000km journey through South Australia, the Northern Territory and North Queensland and is regularly maintained to match. For extended or high kilometre hires, a small service fee may apply to cover additional maintenance. Share your plans and I will put together a fair quote. šŸ“ Hector is based on the Sunshine Coast, QLD. Please enquire about pickup location when you request to book. šŸ“ø Follow Hector on Instagram @hectorthehardkorr If you are after comfort, capability and genuine off-grid freedom, Hector is ready when you are.

    5 stars I highly recommend this wee camper for yer next trip away, it towed exceptionally well and never really felt heavy or cumbersome. The set-up was a breeze with Mick's educational videos, packing up didn't take long either. This wee camper comes with everything, (even though I brought my own cookware and crockery), I found that Mick had everything you need if it's your 1st time glampimg. The selection of tools had everything you need for set up. (Drill of pegs, leaf blower for keeping the place tidy). A huge amount of storage is available in the camper as well. The shower is an add bonus but I would only use if there is alot of sun as the heater draws alot of power from the battery. Being middle aged I thought the roof top tent would be a hassle but the steps and rail made it easy (even in the middle of the night). The 280 awning gives excellent coverage (we didn't use the sides). Again this is a fully kitted out wee glamper and we will definitely hire again. 5 stars.

    This was my first time using a camper trailer and rooftop tent, I can say it was super convenient and absolutely provided me with all that I needed for my weekend away filming a 3 day off road 4x4 event. Michaels set up and pack away videos were a huge help making the set up stage really easy and fast. Shower and hot water was awesome, every kitchen utensil you need and then some. The lighting was great in and around the van and plenty of batterie for all that I needed charging all of my camera equipment over the 3 days. The electric brake set up was also very easy to use and set up. It takes a few minutes but once youre done its all down hill from there. This will be my go to camper from now on. Thank you mate its a really great camper and can see the effect you have gone through making this an all in one camper.

    WOW Ben! Thank you for this detailed and glowing review. I really appreciate the time and effort you went to in writing this. Youre welcome to rent Hector again in the future anytime you want!

    Mick is allowing hirers to utilise his Hardkorr Camper as he uses it. He trusts hirers with all the extra luxuries that he uses himself. The modifications and additions make it better than a new one from factory. And it is meticulously maintained. Definitely set up to add clothes & food. But as always check with Mick if there is something you need. He is easy to communicate with. His short how to videos make a great camper even easier to setup first time.

    We loved our weekend away with Hector.The hot shower, lights, great cooking facilities, the rooftop tent is comfy and stayed dry with some rain, the batwing awning and sides worked well. Michael's videos explained the set up, pack up and his hand over was first class. We highly recommend Hector and Camplify.

    Third Time Renting Hector Still Outstanding! This was our third time renting Hector the camper trailer, and once again everything was absolutely fantastic. The trailer is incredibly easy to tow and so comfortable to sleep in it really makes camping feel effortless and relaxed. Michael is always such a pleasure to deal with: friendly, responsive, and genuinely cares that you have a great experience. Hes also put so much thought into upgrading Hector virtually instant hot water, the ability to charge 240V appliances, and excellent solar power. We were completely off-grid all week without a single issue. Its clear how well cared for and thoughtfully set up this camper is. Reliable, comfortable, and stress-free every time. We wouldnt look anywhere else and cant recommend Michael and Hector highly enough!

Hi, I'm Mick. I picked up Hector in September 2024 and have been upgrading and fine tuning him ever since. What started as a passion for getting outdoors has turned into something I want other people to experience too. Hector has already covered more than 6,000km across South Australia, the Northern Territory and North Queensland, and a Cape York run is on the calendar for August. I maintain Hector like I am the one using him next, because usually I am. Every upgrade has been made with the hirer in mind and I take genuine pride in the condition he goes out in. Over 17 hires and 17 five star reviews, the feedback I hear most is that the handover process and setup videos made all the difference. That matters to me. I pride myself in providing exceptional communication throughout the process. You should feel looked after from the first message to the moment you return. If you have any questions before booking, just reach out and I would be happy to assist you.
