Van is looking good. Is it Fortana Red? Looks darker than I thought.

Who did the gloss black grills for you, if you dont mind me asking?

Just back from an epic road trip from Auckland down to Fiordland - 3700 km round trip in 2 1/2 weeks. A combination of Freedom camping and camping grounds.

I did front brake pads, Full intermediate oil and filter change and Ad Blue fill before we left.
Trip was:
Auckland to wellington
Ferry to Picton
Picton to Christchurch
Christchurch to Lake Dunstan
Lake Dunstan to Te Anau
4 days walking the Kepler track (one of NZ's great walks)
Te Anau to Jackson bay (Haast)
Jackson bay to Franz Josef Glacier
Franz Josef back to Christchurch
Christchurch to Blenheim
Back to Wellington on Ferry
Wellington back to Auckland.

Here are a few photos from along the way for those who may be interested in a trip to NZ.

Stunning!

@manfrotto, can I ask, are T6 campers available to hire in NZ? Touring NZ in a T6 sounds like a slice of heaven to me. 😍🥰
 
DubDocShop near Lutterworth to have my new rear springs fitted. Went for a pleasant stroll round the village of Bitteswell with the dog while the boys did the deed.

I haven't seen any other T6's for hire from the hire companies, but I saw this one from a website where people hire out their campervans when they are not using them themselves...


There may be others.

Last week some friends of ours were heading to the IoW with their caravan some some prat in a lorry side swiped them, damaging the car and writing off the wally wagon.

Next day insurers delivered a newish 6.1 rental camper to their house so they could salvage what was left of their holiday, so they must be out there available for hire.
