Mike and Anita Pavey are avid four-wheel drive and camping enthusiasts. Within their business The Dirt, they have gained a reputation for providing comprehensive touring information or 'the dirt' on the best off-road destinations.

2011 marks a monumental year for the pair who will embark on an epic 40,000km adventure around Australia, surveying the coasts and exploring remote outback posts. Combining work with pleasure, the Paveys' will share their adventures with readers of Camper Trailer Australia, with articles popping up in 4x4 Australia, Caravan World and ARB's 4x4 Action Newsletter. |
Any outback trip of this distance requires significant preparation and a vehicle and campervan built for the job. Tagging along for this adventure is Track Trailer's Topaz Murranji, a rugged pop-top off road van. Trading canvas for hard walls, the Topaz brings caravan comfort in a compact footprint, while still retaining Track Trailer's benchmark off road capability. A Nissan Patrol, fully kitted for the job, will provide towing duties, complemented by some of Australia's finest aftermarket accessories.
Shake down trips to the Murray River, the Victorian high country and Far East Gippsland's Wilderness Coast have showcased the versatility and comfort of the Topaz, and we look forward to seeing how well it measures up as a long term tourer. The Media link on the main page details our magazine contributions to date, many featuring our Tvan, so check out those stories for background on our travels.
