The Alu-Star Alu-X Camper is the smallest off-road camping trailer in the Alu-Star range — and the one that punches well above its weight. Designed as an entry-level base trailer with serious strength, it's a lightweight, compact and extremely tough platform built to go anywhere and be customised to your exact needs. As the authorised Alu-Star dealer in Bellville, Cape Town, 4Matt Campers helps you build the Alu-X into your ideal setup.

A genuine aluminium monocoque
What sets it apart is a full aluminium monocoque design — an integral aluminium monocoque chassis and floor with a hollow-core aluminium box body, where structure and panels work as one. It delivers impressive robustness while keeping weight down: a compact, light off-road trailer you can tow behind a smaller vehicle on a Code B licence (base GVM 750 kg), without sacrificing quality or durability.

- Hollow-core aluminium box body (790 mm internal height)
- Integral aluminium monocoque chassis & floor
- 1600 kg unbraked axle (6-stud, 139.7 mm PCD), parabolic single-leaf spring & shock absorbers

- Rear swing-open door with container-type lock
- LED tail- & numberplate lights, 7-pin ISO trailer plug

Frequently asked questions
Why an aluminium trailer?
Aluminium keeps the trailer light for easier towing and better fuel economy while resisting rust — ideal for South African coastal and bushveld conditions. The Alu-X uses a full aluminium monocoque, so the chassis, floor and body are all aluminium.
What licence and vehicle suit the Alu-X?
At a base GVM of 750 kg it's light enough for a Code B licence and tows easily behind smaller vehicles. We confirm the match to your vehicle before you buy.
Can I finance or trade in?
Yes to both. We can help arrange finance and we welcome trade-ins. We're in Bellville, Cape Town with nationwide delivery.
