Great to have a 4wd van for exploring the Canterbury ski fields. Good and clear communications from Campbell. The van is an older Hiace, manual gearbox, a little beaten up, thin squished mattress, lots of extras like camp chairs, a solar panel powering lights and USB chargers. Overall would repeat.

Deus the 4WD machina -( Toyota hiace - UB6933 - owner Campbell Banks) Trip: 2025 - april Deus the 4WD machine is already in his late granny age with some minor injuries, however he always drove and started reliable and never let us down. He is one of the old style 4WDs where you engage the front axle on it's hubs if you wish to drive 4x4. (it even has an additional auxilary high/low gearset) Please be aware: It's a 92 diesel - the engine is still quite loud inside the cockpit. For the 30+ age: the seats caused us (end of 30th) the most uncomfordable pain when driving longer distances. We seldom drove 100km/h. Our average consumption was 10,97l/100km. All in all we are very greateful towards Campbell for renting out the van resulting in 4 weeks of awesome adventure.

I spent two weeks in the South Island in the van, and it didnt skip a beat! Though Campbell was at the ready for any help needed.

What a beast of a Van!! We really enjoyed rocking around in " Deus" the 4x4 machina. You can get to a lot of spots other people might hesitate to drive to in this one. It had everything we needed in it but maybe a bit short on storage if you're travelling like us for a longer period with a lot of luggage. Other than that we had an awesome time with Deus! Campbell was really helpful and responded to questions immediately. Can only recommend hiring this old boii from Cambpell.

Overall me and my partner had an amazing trip in the van despite a couple minor issues. Campbell was great, he had great communication and did what ever he could to fix the issues. I would recommend this vehicle to others but I suggest the van gets some minor maintenance done on it.

We had a great time driving around in the van, it gets a lot of attention. Very spacious and drives great for it's age. We went from Christchurch to Nelson, Westcoast, Greymouth, Wanaka, Queenstown, Milford sounds, Invercargill, lake Pukaki,lake tekapo and back to Christchurch. Very reliable, didn't disappointed us at all The handover/dropping off was smooth. Thank you Campbell.
