I've been looking for space too, I was thinking of a rear tyre carrier, then battery, compressor and water tank under the floor, then drawers and fridge on top.
I've been thinking similar, but am concerned about the compressor getting really hot under there... might need a fair bit of heat shielding and also will affect reliability/lifespan of the compressor i reckon.
I only put the auxiliary battery and compressor with its air tank in when I need them. The battery is in a battery box and has the Ctek D250S Dual bolted on top so I can charge it from the main battery of solar panels. It sits behind the rear seat in front of the fridge when I take it.
The compressor and air tank are in a ply box which goes either in the boot or behind a front seat in the foot well.
It saves me carting 50 or more kilos around when I don't need to.
Cheers

There's quite a bit of room under the rear of the car from memory. I bet a custom battery box could fit under there and/or water tank. Keep the weight low

Thanks for the many suggestions. I am thinking that a cargo barrier would be good for lashing my battery box and ARB compressor to whilst touring;then removing these when I just run around town. All that needs to stay in the car would be the frig slide;but that could come out easily too.
I have a Kickass 120 ah slimline battery standing up behind the rear seat with a strap over it to the front tiedown points and a little tackle box with various plugs etc beside it, don't take up much room.
