The van thats picked up more KBers than any other recovery vehicle is up for sale.
What you get is a 1989 Toyota Hiace High roof long wheel base and its a Justlo which means theres no wheel arches.
Its a 2.0l petrol manual.
Since I bought it it has been set up for country driving with bikes on board. The engine was taken from a low milage toyota surf and goes bloody well. The front disks and pads were recently replaced. The diff has been replaced with a higher ratio meaning you start in first and the RPM at 100km/h are reasonable. It seats two in the front and if needed 2 in the back.
Its got tiedown points for 2 fullsized bikes
Its got a towbar to tow a trailer.
Ive used it to take 2 bikes.genset.3 tooolboxes compresser and all our gear to every round of the nationals ANY over the hill to Nelson.
Its managed to Haul me all my kids,2 quads 3 kids bikes 2 adult bikes and all our gear to mangawhai with no trouble.
Its done 240k's but only 100k on the motor in it.
Its got a brand new WOF and will have 3 months rego on sale. I need $2200 for it

That's if we all pitch in a good $50 bucks each and Stevo ends up with another vehicle in his shed..

This time being the 4 wheeler kind.
