We bought a van!

So the other day when we got to Auckland we went over to the Backpackers Car Market and saw a few vehicles there, though none were too impressive. One of them was painted rather fantastically and led us to some ads on Trademe from Escape Rentals, who were selling a number of vans from their fleet, including this one, Binney!




They are all painted pretty awesomely, but of the ones available, we liked this one the best.

Only 404000km on it! What a steal! We got it inspected down the road in Glen Innes at VTNZ, seemed everything was in order... So now we have even more paperwork to complete getting the registration transferred over to us... Wee!

    So, is it a VW Westfalia or equivalent?

    It's a Toyota Hiace that has been outfitted with beds and a little table, counter and sink. Something like this: http://www.escaperentals.co.nz/vans.asp We'll post some interior shots of ours later.

    Don't worry, no pop-up sleeping area to fall out of :)
