DISTINCTIVE SIGNATURE

In the world of camper trailers, hybrids are the coming thing — that’s only if you consider they haven’t already arrived with a big thump. They form a necessary and significant component of any brand’s line-up, and sales to the over 50s are almost exclusively in that area. In fact, there are now so many brands and styles on the market that you have to have a very price competitive and/ or well featured camper to stand out in the crowd.

Signature Camper Trailers is a relatively new brand in the market, having been only established in 2016. Since then, it has gone through a number of major changes, with new owners and new premises in the northern Sydney suburb of Thornleigh. Our first impression of their shiningly clean workshop-cum-showroom was of a space of buzzing activity and crisp efficiency.

Signature offers a range of four different campers, amongst which are two different hybrids, the Iridium 13 and Iridium 15. Sales are roughly equally divided between the two, the 13 attracting buyers who are more budget conscious and those seeking more internal room preferring the 15ft version.

We grabbed a 13-footer for some fun in the bush, with the S version bringing with it air conditioning and rooftop solar.
