By making an online deposit on a van you are committing to purchase. Should your circumstances change and you withdraw from purchasing the vehicle – your deposit is forfeited and will thus not be refunded. Please be certain of your plans prior to making this purchase to avoid disappointment.

Warranty – Covered Items

Please note: Warranty is only valid for the original purchaser of the vehicle from Wicked Campers. Once ownership of the vehicle has been transferred from this original purchaser, warranty becomes null and void.

Engine: All internally lubricated parts within the engine are covered. Mechanical fuel pump.

Drive-train: All internally lubricated parts within the automatic/manual transmission assembly, Differential centre.

Unless stated in the covered items section, any other parts of or on the vehicle are not covered.

Conditions:

1. You will maintain the vehicle through regular routine maintenance – this includes maintaining all fluid levels (oil & water).

2. You will contact Wicked Campers immediately on 0800 24 68 70 when you are aware of a serious defect in the vehicle, so that we can inform you of the nearest repair centre and help facilitate speedy repair. IF YOU FAIL TO CONTACT US BEFORE REPAIRS ARE CARRIED OUT, YOUR WARRANTY MAY BE VOIDED.

3. You will contact your roadside assistance provider - if a serious defect occurs so that they can tow the vehicle (if required) to a repair centre, to prevent further damage to the vehicle. Towing costs are at your expense. We suggest you take the highest level of roadside assistance cover available.

4. If you ignore the engine overheat buzzer, or disregard the temperature gauge fitted to the vehicle and continue to drive the vehicle (and thereby overheat or cook your engine) – you void your warranty.

Million-Dollar Travel Tip: Travel slow on hot days to minimise your risk of overheating the engine – Look after your investment and it will look after you! If you cook your engine and blow your head gasket – you void your warranty, so treat your van with lots of love!

A: Of Course – our Roadtrip Planners are sexy and excited about hearing your voice. Give them a call: 0800 24 68 69

Q: How many people can fit in each vehicle?

A: Seat belts are mandatory in New Zealand. The number of passengers depends on the number of seat belts - which depends on the vehicle.

A: You may travel with a valid international drivers license, or any full, valid license from your country of residence. A translation of your national drivers license may be required.

Q: Is it legal for a people who are not New Zealand residents to own a car?

A: There is no problem for visitors to NZ to own a car and you must abide by the same laws as Kiwis.

Q: Do I need to carry spare parts for the car?

A: You might want to carry a couple of hoses or belts. Our vehicles are all covered by a limited warranty.
