Car dealers, raiders, trial car enthusiasts, organizers, engineers, co-pilot (Claudine): they know everything about 4x4 vehicles, since the appearance of the latter in France, during 80's. Franck, one of their children, has given society new dynamism by furtherly developing the preparation activity.

Edo Bauer
"I like hard work in a simple camp, in clear or dark nights and also when the sandstorm rages. Desert is terrible and merciless, but if you know it, you cannot forget it"
"My work consists of writing and taking photographs of motorcycles in Africa. Desert is nearly always my destination and the tent being on my Toyota roof is my 'village all inclusive'."

Instructor and International Tester makes journeys all over the world.
"The sun burns, the sand is lifted in dusty whirls, it is so hot that the sky mingles with the flickering desert. Still a few kilometres and you reach your destination. A precise destination does not exist , but what counts is that with Maggiolina you always reach home, wherever you are. Maggiolina: quality and perfect look."

Knut Espegard - A North European distributor of sports and camping articles who organises expeditions for everyone
"...I do not know what you prefer, but I do prefer Maggiolina. It is a fundamental accessory that allows me to prepare my camp in any weather condition. As the wind is strong, Maggiolina always shows its best features: it does not "lose its composure" and does not break up. Thank you Autohome."

Ottavio Zirilli - Tour leader and reporter
"Extraordinary images and sensations: from the look of children in the schools of the deserts, to the sand scraping among the teeth". The roof-tent can really make the difference. In a long raid, it eliminates the stress of the camp and allows to enjoy the sunset till its end. In addition, sleeping up there is wonderful. The important thing is to have the right tent brand: Autohome!"

Martina Pullin
Good night from our comfortable "mansard"
"...it is nice to wake up every day in a different desert point. And to go out from our tent when dawn breaks, to stretch our arms and legs in the fresh air, to fill free within light and space, to simply breathe, live and be happy for this... This is Pierre Loti's feeling after a refreshing sleep in his very comfortable tent.

Raffaele Rossetti - Expert on racing cars
"On the roads of the world: travelling, Land Rover, tent and stove. For me and my friends I organise travels preferably to North. In my garage, ready to use, I have two kinds of tents: Overcamp and Maggiolina.
"...rain, water, wind, storm and rain again. With our tents everything is wonderful all the same, but with something more: the sun at midnight in our hearts."

Enrico Caruso and Lucia Tincani - Enthusiastic travellers
"Up on a gorge with panoramic view on a glacier or in front of an elk weighing 4500 kilograms close to a stream, there are always good reasons to stop and camp. The important thing is to have a Maggiolina. The right product for any situation. Kind regards to everybody"

Honza Perclìk - Enthusiast raider
"...it was very cold, we were in a perfectly closed room: windows, doors and any opening were totally closed and we had no humidity problem. It is really true: the tent fabric is like the highly breathable fabric of our jackets. Maggiolina is in our opinion the best product and we recommend it, absolutely! Bye Bye."

Mìla Janàcek - Iceland - HUMMER EXPEDITION
"Across the Atlantic Ocean by a wooden boat equipped with a dragon head... More than thousand years ago, people should have a particular inward conviction to launch in such an adventure. Nowadays, people can count on the reliable Maggiolina tent, a safety at any latitude, in case of long journeys, at any weather condition, wind, cold, rain."

Gaetano Barbagallo - Supporter of the Humanitarian Organisation Bambini nel Deserto
On September 25th, 2000 the first BnD expedition to Morocco has started; only one vehicle, two persons, a huge load and a few certainties. It has been a great success above all in human terms and many other expeditions followed the first one. In a few years we succeeded in reaching many countries: sometimes bringing a few boxes of medicines, pens or work books, but always and directly in the hands of those who needed them.

Motta Gianfranco - Maradah/Libya
Experienced raider who has been owning Maggiolina for about 15 years
"A wonderful place at the boundaries with Algeria. Spire roofs and wonderful king-posts of sandstone where it is very easy to get lost. Very small passages, with very soft sand. A show that shall not be missed. Anything that moves on sand annoys me: with Maggiolina I solved my problem."

"My "Africa sickness" is being forcedly away from those lands, my everyday life that prevents me from living them in the modes and time periods in which my soul would like to. The shades of ochre inflaming those horizons have become the colours of my soul and it is with them that I paint my day."

Our five stars hotels! We are not talking about the hotels we have found in Algeria that left much to be desired in terms of comfort, cleanliness, etc. but about AUTOHOME roof tents that always turn out to be the best compromise to live these adventures in top comfort. Autohome roof tents are really five stars hotels!

Elvio Grasselli- Enthusiastic Raider
In the desert, it's sometimes difficult to find a way out and when people do find it, maybe after several hours, they reach camp exhausted. Sitting on a dune, lost in thought. On this big sandy surface, we only need a starry night, a tent and a fire.

Miko - Traveller
I would like to thank everybody. I have spent memorable nights with Maggiolina and who knows how many more will follow. I use Maggiolina in the Arctic Circle up to the Tropic of Cancer. This travelling system makes me feel proud of owning the original product and my thoughts are for its inventors and for anyone who has been able to renew and spread Autohome all over the world.

Francesca Venturi and Mirco Gadda
From Ferrara to Ulan Bator looking for excitement: 23,000 kilometres and 45 days through Mittelasia to make a documentary film. With Maggiolina Safari we should neither inflate mattresses nor to fix tent pegs: some crank turns and .... bed is ready! Maggiolina: a practical and comfortable tent!! Maggiolina will always be with us, during our journeys! THANK YOU AUTOHOME
