This is a bespoke, high-quality custom-made campervan with a unique soul. Originally built by a local Kiwi family, it has since been owned by only two generations of German backpackers. It is in top condition and has been 100% trouble-free.
Named after the friendly Pīwakawaka (Fantail) in the framed picture above the bed—your loyal companion for your New Zealand adventure.

✅ Car-Jam Report from 02.March.2026 when I bought the van (not stolen, no money owing and odometer plausible)
