Meet Reginald – or simply “Reggie” Reggie is your comfortable, capable home away from home, built for exploring Aotearoa, New Zealand at your own pace, whether you’re chasing remote views, staying off-grid, or working whilst travelling. He’s fully self-contained and solar powered, with a 500W inverter, the perfect amount for charging devices and running a laptop. Inside, Reggie’s two-sided couch fold and unfold quickly into a queen size bed, for efficient day to night transitions. Rugged fly screens on all sliding side windows let fresh air flow through while keeping the bugs out. There is a diesel heater for colder nights, this is really just required from march onwards. Reggie has an abundance of storage! * ⁠200L of easily separable internal storage. * 550L roof box for dirty, damp, or bulky outdoor gear - or perhaps souvenirs you pick up along the way :) * Roof racks for outdoor equipment. For those worried about breakage I can supply additional padding on request. * 25L fridge/freezer for easily 3-4 days of fresh food and chilled drinks * 25L of fresh and waste water, easily accessible Van amenities * Lights and light dimmers for full or soft lighting options * Fully stocked kitchenware * Multiple charging points for devices * Plenty of nooks and crannies for dry food * Two headed gas cooker and 2L refillable gas bottle * Reversing camera * A hidden dinner table and seating for two which I will show you at handover * Apple CarPlay and Android Auto (wireless bluetooth) * Fresh linen, sheets and towels provided * Diesel heater * Mosquito and sandfly screens * Pull out toilet * 270 degree awning for additional space to chill, in rain or shine Adventure perks * 4WD and upgraded suspension for extra traction and clearance. Great for gravel and securing our most wild, rural spots; where not all vans have safe access. * Spotlights for clear night driving * Diesel which keeps fuel costs lower * Portable jumpstarting kit in the case you leave the lights on in remote places * Safety beacon on request *see under additional info* Lastly, this is my own van that I have fitted out myself, and I ask that it’s treated with care and respect, so that I and many others can continue to enjoy the wild places of Aotearoa. Please feel free to get in touch with any additional questions.

Additional information

A personal locator beacon (PLB) can be provided free of charge to support your safety, especially if you’re heading into remote areas or planning multi‑day hikes. It enables free emergency rescue if something unexpected happens. Because PLBs must be registered in advance with local rescue authorities, this option requires prior arrangement. 👉 Please request the beacon at least two weeks before your trip so I can organise it for you. I want you to have the best possible, and safest, experience during your adventure. If you’re planning longer hikes where mobile reception may be limited, New Zealand strongly recommends carrying a PLB. They are lightweight and roughly the size of a computer mouse, so easy to take along. Let me know if that is something I can help you with to avoid further cost hiring them.


Hiring rules

  • Smoke and vapefree van.
  • Drive on formed roads only, gravel being part of NZ road network is ok.

    Our three-week trip through New Zealand with Reggie was an amazing experience from start to finishand a huge part of this was the owner Bjørn! The camper itself was newly built, very well thought out and perfectly equipped. Everythingthe fridge, water, and gas were all reliable throughout the trip. The layout made great use of the space, and the rooftop box added a surprising amount of storage. The bed and seats were comfortable, and we loved the outdoor setup with sunshade, camping chairs, and the clever pull-out table and cabinets. They made daily life on the road really easy and enjoyable so we felt right at home. Björn was incredibly supportive right from the beginning. He welcomed us warmly with lovely treats, gave us helpful tips for the journey, and made sure we felt fully prepared for the long trip. He also provided us with a personal locator beacon and valuable safety advice, which we really appreciated! During the trip, he stayed in touch and showed genuine interest in how things were going without ever being intrusive. On pickup and drop-off, he went out of his way to help and made the whole experience smooth and stress-free. Björn is a truly kind and thoughtful host, and it made a real difference to our trip. We would absolutely recommend renting Reggieit's a fantastic setup for exploring New Zealand.

    Incredible month long trip in Reggie. He has everything you could possibly need for driving: 4wd, lifted suspension, headlights so that you can take him down almost any road. The living space has been done with incredible care and attention to detail and is very comfortable. This van is the ideal van for road tripping in NZ. Bjorn has also been incredibly helpful from start to finish with fantastic recommendations of where to go and help with any issues you may have along the way. I cannot recommend renting this van enough. Absolutely worth the price.
