Dreamer - news from the smaller Rapido brothers

Dreamer D51

In 2023, the Dreamer brand introduces several changes to the collection of popular tin plates. The range remains substantial - the FUN series will include 4 proposals, while the SELECT series consists of 8 models.
The problem with the availability of Fiat Ducato base cars has affected many manufacturers, and the Rapido group is no exception. Thus, vehicles built on the basis of Peugeot Boxer will compete for the favor of fans of larger cars in the coming season. Fiat Ducato remains an option for automatic transmission fans (except for the CAMPER FIVE model). Cap Coast and Cap Land babies are still Transit Custom with a lifting roof. There is also a hot novelty based on the Ford Transit, but more on that in a moment.

As part of the equipment changes, the SELECT range is introducing AGM batteries as standard and lithium batteries as an option. Wiring to photovoltaic panels and a TV mount have become standard in most models. The new optional panoramic roof (SKYVIEW) also looks interesting.

Dreamer Select D51 - a new player with a rich interior

The D51 model is the hottest novelty prepared by the brand. The base car looks promising - 170 horsepower and an automatic gearbox in the package guarantee comfortable travel. And all this with an engine capacity of less than 2 liters, and thus with a lower excise tax than the Fiat / Peugeot-based designs.

The vehicle is equipped with a 190x140 cm transverse bed at the rear. It is possible to put an additional bed for a third person in the living room (174 x 92 cm). Despite its small dimensions (the vehicle measures only 598 cm and 206 cm wide by 283 cm high), there is room for a sink, a 2-burner stove and a 140-liter fridge.

The cleverly designed bathroom cubicle with a rotating wall is well known to fans of the Rapido group of vehicles. After folding it, we get a full-size shower cubicle. We take 100 liters of clean water on board (20 liters for transport) and 60 liters of gray water. The Truma Combi Diesel stove with the CP Plus control panel (4 kW) is responsible for heating here, so in practice we only take the gas supply needed to power the stove - a 2.75 l cylinder.

Next to the rear bed you will find a wardrobe, and under the bed a quite large trunk, 77x77x150 cm. The optional front sunroof gives the interior plenty of light.

From the indispensable additions, it is worth considering the Comfort + package, which includes a lot of multimedia functions (including a media station, a camera and a remote control of the radio from the living room), a mosquito net, electric side door closing, air conditioning in the cab and other practical accessories. The weight of the vehicle in running order is 3090 kg - for a pair it will be a solution that allows to fit in a GVM of 3.5 tons. The car can pull a light trailer up to 750 kg.

Dreamer Select D51 - the right decision

Whichever plate from the Dreamer collection catches your eye, you will not regret it. Perfect insulation (including window frames), extensive equipment and excellent quality of workmanship (which is guaranteed by the Rapido group) are sufficient reasons to become interested in the Dreamer collection.

The authorized dealers of the brand are CamelCamp from Poznań and m-Camp from Dzierżoniów.

America by car, part 2/10 - Universal Studios
Today is a great day almost entirely at Universal Studios. We were at all the attractions we wanted. The Simpsons went to the first fire. I have to add here that after opening the gates, some Americans ran to be the first in… fast food bars… Jerzu is a big fan of the Simpsons, so it was obvious that for him it was a must on the agenda. I was very skeptical, but what we saw / felt exceeded the wildest expectations of all four of us! A one-of-a-kind show that allowed us to move into the world of Homer Simspon and FEEL (literally) a few minutes of adventure conducted at a frantic pace. Then we went to the attraction called "Mummy's Revenge". Horror rollerkoster in the grave (mummy?) Darkness, thanks to which we screamed into the heavens. We decided to finish by entering the "House of Horror", but only at times it was really scary here. We were stuck in a narrow room, rubbing against the corpse of foil hanging on ropes ... "Terminator 2: 3D" is a show lasting a dozen or so minutes that cannot be missed when visiting Universal Studios. Robots, lasers, explosions - all in special glasses, on special chairs in harmony with light and touch (yes, touch). The amazing show "Waterworld" turned out to be a hit. Daring stunts, gigantic explosions and a lot, a lot of water ... This show attracted the largest audience (at one time). A visit to Universal Studios would not be complete without visiting the well-known Jurassic Park. A dinghy on the river, among lush vegetation, friendly (and not) dinosaurs ... Actually, it would be worth repeating only for the final scene itself! "Backdraft" is a show of the filmmakers' ability to master, or rather try to control, fire. We learned about the complicated production of this film, how much time and resources were devoted to achieve the intended effect. Kurt Russell himself told what a challenge for him and other actors was to play in this film, and at the end we saw a few minutes long show of a rapidly spreading fire in the old hall. "Special Effects Stages" is nothing but the "skinning" of some amazing scenes from widely known movies - rich in special effects. We were shown what it looks like from the kitchen, we were told some techniques used every day in the production of films by computer scientists, sound engineers, etc. Finally, we went to the "Studio Tour". It is an interesting journey on a guided train, during which we visited, among others to the street known to all fans of the series "Desperate Housewives" ("Ready for Everything"). The preserved sets from cult films were the icing on the cake today. Well, unless you consider our evening car trip through Beverly Hills as such, a glance (in the falling dusk to the Pacific) and a walk in the main "Fight" of Santa Monica. At night - last, but not least - the famous Kodak Theater (Oscar-winning galas are held here), Chinese Theater, hundreds of stars underfoot at the Walk of Fame, El Capitan Theater and Wax Museum.
