  Unfortunately we were a bit disappointed in our experience with this van. We rented it for a trip around the south island but felt that, given how much we paid for this, it was very underwhelming. First of all, I'd like to say Sam was very accommodating on pickup and drop off and had good communication throughout our trip. When we picked up the van it wasn't cleaned at all, the cutlery, cups, and pots were all a bit dirty. The duvet was also badly stained which was not pleasant when putting on the bedding. The van is very old and had lots of dents so the appearance isn't great. It really struggled going up hills and we had to fill up with petrol on average more than once a day. We weren't prepared for this and it gets a bit annoying having to constantly watch how much fuel you have, especially in remote areas. We didn't have any mechanical issues so the van itself still worked throughout our drive. There was one camping stove provided but if it was wet we struggled to cook since we can't use it inside. We bought a second stove to make cooking proper meals easier and left it in the van for future customers, hopefully it is left there to make their lives easier. The radio didn't work and we saw a review saying a past customer left a Bluetooth speaker but it wasn't anywhere so I would recommend bringing your own. We had issues with the water tap which a lot of the time, when it was on, flowed over the sink onto the bed. The tap sometimes didn't work, sometimes didn't turn off, so we had to disconnect the wires a lot when not using it incase it randomly turned on. The inverter also had a fault on it anytime we tried to use the household plugs. Just being honest with our review here so future campers know what to expect when renting this van. This van does have potential and just needs a bit of work to get it up to standard. Sam did seem positive when I let him know of the issues we faced so it seems like it will all be looked into.

  We had an amazing holiday and the van never skipped a beat. There were a few inconveniences: the electric cooler listed in the description was not there. Instead a tiny regular cooler was provided. Some of the cutlery was not well cleaned. The fuel tank is very small (only around 30-40L) so we had to fill up at least once per day. The biggest inconvenience was the radio, which did not work. We bought a bluetooth speaker and left it in the van for the next renters. However, the van performed excellently overall and Sam was super friendly.

  Its quite an old van but did everything we needed, worked well and Sam was very friendly. Just cant go up very steep roads so watch out for that. In general what a nice experience!
