Ian Grant Highlander Off Road Van

You surprise me with Goldstream.

We've just bought a 17ft cut-a-way with all the offroad bling. Van was finished to perfection and there after customer service is brilliant. Already taken it offroad and had cause to use the cut-a-way around some levee banks. NOTHING hangs below the chassis in our van ... Mitch Damyon is the guy to speak to in the first instance.

Good luck!

I am glad to hear that you did well.

We were very disappointed to find underhanging services.
What we seen at the Leisurefiest at Sandown Racetrack did not suggest anything that would render the van suceptable to rough going

We were very taken by what we seen at the show, and wanted to look very closely at the van, with pland of getting one, at 22 ft.

In doing that, at their Pakenham factory, you can imagine my disappointment.
Not anything like the off-road van we seen at the show, but suposedly the same van... Even had the brochures, just a shorter version

Never mind, plenty of fish in the sea
Cheers

Thanks Bucky
Its agonising trying to find the the right van, the one that really seems to take the cake is the trakmaster, its really expensive compared to all the other off roaders they usually have everything included, whereas Trakmaster just about everything is an option which is disappointing, but Trakmaster specialize in off road vans they don't make any other sort, so I would imagine they know the business. Lets know if you hear of any other good off roaders. Thanks Linda

I replied to Bucky's second post ... no idea where it went.

Yes Linda it is difficult. It took us 18 months plu to find the manufacturer we wanted and then a further 8 months to wait for it to be completed.

When I went to Melbourne to pick the van up I saw the van you are talking about ... I wasn't impressed. You could also try Evernew in Heidelberg. They were tied with Goldstream for us and the only reason we chose Goldy over Evernew was due to communication issues with Evernew. Other than that they make a good van.

Bucky,

Shame I can't show you a pic of our van ... totally 'clean' underneath and very solid. When I did a search fro Goldstream I couldn't find one negative comment ... this is the first time I'm aware of one. They must have been having a bad day ... did you point it out to them?

Scol.
