This is a great find for anyone looking for a great all-rounder camper! Really comfortable and cozy, easy to drive, with all the amenities you need. And for those taller campers this is the one for you! The camper and bed were designed so someone at least 6ft 3in can sleep and stand comfortably. It is possible for this to be picked up in Auckland and dropped off in Christchurch (Hoon Hay), for an extra charge of $2,000. If you're interested, please put in a request and message us to ask if it's possible. This is only available over certain date ranges. Lovely on those winter / snow trip nights with a heater to keep you warm (we don't run the heater in summer as it makes the camper too warm). Your surf / snow gear can also be strapped onto the side of the camper to the specialty racks, and Discover Max even comes with a drying rack fitted to the side. In Discover Max, the camper has been fitted permanently on top of an Isuzu Ute. You enter at the back into a lovely kitchen and seating area, with the roomy permanent bed in front of you, over the cab of the ute. Note, there is a permanent step at the back for access that can't be seen in the photos. Solar panels run the fridge, interior lighting and charge points. KITCHEN: Lovely kitchen with storage and all the amenities you need. This includes a pull out 22 Litre fridge that runs off the solar panel (this can be run as either a fridge or freezer). - 1 x burner stove - 22 Litre fridge - Hand pump tap (25 litre fresh water tank, and 25 litre grey water tank) - Coffee plunger - Plates, bowls, cups, cutlery, cooking utensils - Pot, pan, kettle, chopping board - Camping chairs - Camping table HEATING: There is a diesel heater in the camper, so Discover Max works brilliantly for winter adventures (the heater is off during summer). SEATING: Comfy permanent L shape seating in the camper. 5 x seatbelt seats in the ute cab, so if you're popping down to the beach from the campground you can bring some friends along. Or if you're staying in campgrounds (not freedom camping), then bring along a tent and your kids can stay in there while you have the camper bed. Note: we have slept in the camper bed with our little one fitting easily in there with us. Message us if you have any questions about that. SLEEPING: 135 by 195cm bed. High density foam. EXTRAS: Side racks for your surfboards etc. USB Charger x 2 runs off the solar panel, as does the interior light. SURFBOARDS AVAILABLE: Mini Mal: 7'6 mid length - really fun and versatile board for beginners to advanced surfers Fish: 5'10 - great for the more experienced surfer NOTE: these are also offered with another van we rent out, so it’s ‘first in first served’. Please double check the one you want is available for your hire! These are available for $8 each a day in 'Optional Extras'. I also have a lovely 9ft longboard I would consider hiring out, but would likely charge a bit more for that. Ask me about it when you message! LINEN: Provided: 2 x pillows, pillow cases, sheets, 1 x blanket. SELF CONTAINMENT: Self contained for two, so you can freedom camp where it is legal. Fixed toilet included, as per regulations. Toilet must be emptied and cleaned before van is returned. NOTE: any fines etc incurred for any freedom camping infringement will be the responsibility of the hirer. ROAD USER CHARGES In New Zealand diesel vehicles have Road User Charges (RUC’s) that have to be paid. Camplify manages this by calculating and charging this to the hirer during the post hire checklist at a rate of .09c per km. Follow the below link for more information. https://help.camplify.co.nz/en/support/solutions/articles/35000134200-what-is-ruc-road-user-charge-and-why-do-hirers-have-to-pay-for-this- INFRINGEMENTS / SPEEDING There is a $100 administration fee (on top of the ticket cost) if you get a speeding ticket while you have the camper. There is a $20 administration fee for parking tickets. Infringements get sent to Camplify and they communicate with the hirer about set LOCATION: Pick up is in Puhoi, Auckland. An Uber from the airport takes about 55 minutes (excluding peak traffic times). We can also meet you at the Silverdale (Hibiscus Coast) Bus depot for an extra charge of $40 (see this listed in Optional Extras as 'RV Delivery and Setup under 100ks).

    We really enjoyed our holiday with the van, it has everything you need including a permanent bed. It does require a bit of a self invented system due to the minimal storage space, but the backseat definitely has enough space.

    We were in NZ exploring both the North and South Island for a month and the D-Max made our trip so much more comfortable and enjoyable! The D-Max has plenty of space for storing your personal items (we had multiple fishing rods, blow up paddle board and two bags of clothes and had plenty of room between the camper and cab to store it all) the kitchen is great and everything you might need is supplied, and the cherry on top is how comfy the bed is! I couldnt recommend the D-Max or hiring with Grace and Johan more. Their communication was fantastic the whole trip, from responding super quickly to a last minute booking request, to helping with any questions along the way. Thank you so much for our little home the past month!

    This is a wonderful campervan. So easy to use and we really enjoyed our time in it. In particular the near normal driving experience and the permanent fixed bed. Thank you

    We had such a wonderful time with Discover Max. Graces communication throughout the process was great. We didnt have any issues, any questions we had were answered promptly and the van gave us the flexibility we needed for 2 months of travel throughout both islands. The bed is big and super comfy, very spacious and good standing room, the van itself handles well driving. Its well stocked with everything we needed for our trip, chairs, table, pans, portable hob etc. Overall a great experience and wouldnt hesitate to rent this van again through Grace :)
