2008 Model SportsRV Overview
One of the exciting changes in the 2008 Model lineup for Kimberley is the updated SportsRV. This model has gained in popularity because of its lightweight and easy to operate features. This year we have added a separate cooking compartment and updated the lighting throughout the SportsRV to LED.

The Kimberley Kamper SportsRv is perfect for off-road travelling where lighter weight better suits your vehicle. The 2008 Model Sportsrv is now even lighter than before with an alloy internal construction. The drawbar weight is 80kgs Tare. The Sportsrv uses electric brakes on a laser-cut chassis with independent suspension. The Selecta-Swing-Away range of rear carriers gives you the flexibility of adding bikes or additional water in the rear of the camper. All the Kimberley Canvas and Energy options are available for the sportsrv.
With the second bedroom, it is perfect for the family as the second bedroom can stay zipped on all the time and errected in less than a minute. It will take 3 children or 2 adults.
The SportsRv model has the same Camper "body", camper "tent", NEW Dual Layer mattress and Stainless Steel Kitchen Body (kitchen internals are different) that is used across the range of models. It is perfect for the couple or family that spend their time camping in easy-access locations and want to limit their investment.

Sports RV has been designed for both the long term stay and the quick overnight stop.
For overnight stops, the camper opens in minutes accommodating 2 adults and 2-3 children in bunk beds on the hard floor.
For longer stays, the patented Bedouin Annexe erects without the use of ropes and covers an area 7m long and 3 m wide. Within this area is room for a second bedroom as well as the stainless steel kitchen with water on tap.
With the SportsRV, you now have a choice of 2 Annex sizes 2.4m wide Extended or 2.6m wide Bedouin for the largest range in the Industry. There is also the 2m Kwik Awning for overnight stops. Canvas Mesh walls and windows can be added to the Annexe for complete privacy and weather protection.
The Sports RV has a “Rhino Tuff” sprayed on stone protector on the front of the Uni-Pod. It has been tested in difficult terrain with gibbers and bulldust.
The Sports RV has the kitchen including the cooker integrated into the slide out Stainless Steel kitchen. The refridgerator (up to 80liter) can be located in the Uni-pod. If you are looking for a model that has larger kitchen and storage facilities, then consider the new Kimberley Kamper with Delta Gullwing.
