sorry folks i was completely confused by the names with-in previous thread it is a goldstar rv that i'm thinking of buying not ( goldstream ) who are having the big 2015 reduce priced factory sales and the un-reserved auction with 100 new vans on the market no connection with the company and haven't owned one before do they have any design faults or are they a very good value for money well made durable van
i'm not here to bag them but to find out if current owners are happy and /or would buy another one or not
cheers

Hi. We had a look at them in Perth. Compared to other vans the finish is not good. Very kitset sort of approach...which is exactly what I believe they are. Kitsets imported from China..assembled here. they did have one model we saw with a 6 inch aluminium chassis which looked interesting but otherwise we couldn't see them standing up to our semi off road/dirt road expectations.

Actually, they are built by an Adelaide company in China and imported almost fully assembled ('A' frame and suspensions are assembled locally). Sandwich panel construction.
The same company has built camper trailers and semi trailers there for many years.

thank mate appreciate your reply i had a suspicion that they might be chinese based so in light of that imfo i wont be touching one that's probably why they are selling them at factory prices no one wants them and why they are indicating on facebook they will be having an un-reserved price auction cheers
