    Overland Vagabond - Cool Global Expedition Vehicle

    Hi Charles, The rear end is about 2.85m / 9.35ft with the roof lowered, the latter can be lifted to gain another 50cm / 20" of room - it gives an even more spacious feeling and provides fresh and cooling air. The requirement was to fit it into a high-cube container, which is feasible with a...
