World’s smallest caravan announced
A one-man, 2.4m long British van light enough to be towed by a bike has entered the Guinness book of World RecordsWhat's the world's smallest caravan?
Well, if you look to the 2015 Guinness Book of Records, it's the tiny QTvan built by British inventor Yannick Read, which at 131kg is light enough to be towed by a bicycle.
Fully roadworthy, the cute caravan measures just 2.39m (7 ft 10.9 in) long, 1.53 m (5 ft 0.24 in) high and 0.79 m (2 ft 7.9 in) wide, but still manages to squeeze inside a full size bed, TV, sink, kettle and interior lighting.
The 43-year-old Londoner has completed a number of trips around the UK with the van, which he describes as comfortable and a pleasure to own, generating “smiles from people who see me towing it along the road".
The QTvan is named after the British love of queuing, tea and caravans, but it's not the only entry in the latest Guinness World Records book from Read, a website writer and part-time inventor.
He's also behind the world's loudest bicycle horn, and is currently working on a flying bicycle!
