Doug, great to hear you've acquired your second Cali.
Our new Cali is due sometime in Sept.
Would be good to meet up sometime.
We're based in Wellington.

Did you order anything specific in it or as they come standard as listed here/? God price I hope. Our dealer got this one in, I put approx. 20km on it, they registered it. I offered them a price that they accepted with toe bar thrown in & here we R. Two tone silver & blue. Great to drive. If you are up Tauranga way keep in touch. We have a plug in spot. Country living, approx. 6km from Bethlehem. All the best on your purchase, & what colour.?

Welcome Doug Milne and hello new Cali!

In 2007 I had the chance to travel around in NZ for 5 weeks and it is still one of the best trips I've done so far (not in a camper but still loved it).

Enjoy your new Van!

Thank you & we R. From a Scottish, Canadian, Kiwi. What sort & year is yours?

When I picked my van up from the converter, he said the van he did the week before was for an 86 yo lady, I was so impressed!

Welcome.

That is fantastic. Great to have the health she must have.

Thanks Doug. Your purchase sounds attractive. Our model is fairly standard NZ spec but with the 150kW engine and the shower attachment. Candy White. Looking forward to some summer touring. Currently trying to import a bike carrier as NZ dealer's price is exorbitant.
