Ford transit extended jumbo campervan
This 2 birth campervan is like a home on wheels, it has everything you need to just drive of for weekend breaks and extended holidays, or live in it permanently off grid and save on rent, details as follows.
As you can see in the pictures this has no side windows but it is very light inside with the skylight but if you prefer windows they can be fitted for around $300 - $400
The inside of the campervan has been designed for sleeping, cooking, shower/toilet and storage in mind with main living room area being the enclosed awning.
However, if you are just having an overnight stay you can use the seats in the cab as there is a folding umbrella windscreen shade for privacy.

Some Choice News!
DOC is rolling out a new tool to help figure out what to tackle first when it comes to protecting our threatened species and the things putting them at risk.
Why does this matter? As Nikki Macdonald from The Post points out, we’re a country with around 4,400 threatened species. With limited time and funding, conservation has always meant making tough calls about what gets attention first.
For the first time, DOC has put real numbers around what it would take to do everything needed to properly safeguard our unique natural environment. The new BioInvest tool shows the scale of the challenge: 310,177 actions across 28,007 sites.
Now that we can see the full picture, it brings the big question into focus: how much do we, as Kiwis, truly value protecting nature — and what are we prepared to invest to make it happen?
We hope this brings a smile!
