Cars that cheap are going to be a gamble - don't assume the thing is actually going to be roadworthy just because it was a recent warrant of fitness. Subarus have a really bad reliability reputation in New Zealand so you can grab one cheap - just avoid the twin turbo models (which are pretty much the whole reason for the bad rep) e. If you buy from a dealer you'll pay more but be covered by consumer law. A lot of cheap dealers say they're selling the car 'as is where is' without any warranty - they can't actually legally do so dissss fucked around with this message at 10:41 on Aug 9, 2015 |

Vans are expensive too as you'll be competing with a bunch of backpackers. Also cheap vans are awful to drive and hilariously unsafe

The people mover based ones are actually not so bad - it's the commercial L300/Hiace/Bongo I'd avoid

Trouble is those little vans are anything but economical at open road speeds. Add to that how noisy, uncomfortable. unsafe and generally all round unpleasant they are and you'd be far better off in a Camry or an Odyssey or something.

December Octopodes posted:The FM band on the radio cuts out and goes no higher than 90.0. That's because the car started off its life in Japan (they use different frequencies over there) You can get a band expander but usually it's better just to swap the head unit for one that supports the correct bands for NZ
