3 ure en so 50km nadat ek dit gekry het was dit al vol gemaak met ys en n paar koue goues vir n troue wat die kombi gehuur het.
Very good condition and inside is still solid with no leaks, very happy with the find. :D

No, not my score but I spotted this old Jurgens-branded gas bottle in an antique shop. Dunno if Autovillas had gas stoves, but this would be a nice addition to your camping gear!

Autovillas did indeed come with a gas cooker, I have a taken special note of the interiors of all the autovillas I have come across after the acquisition of mine, and noticed subtle differences in the interiors as well as what accessories were fitted, and I seem to recall coming across a pre 1976 autovilla that came standard with a 2 plate gas hob, as well as a gas oven.

As Kegan said above, yes, Autovillas had gas stoves and gas fridges. However, that gas cylinder is bigger than the one in an Autovilla. That one would have been fitted to a Jurgens caravan, mounted on a bracket in front.
