Wilderness ushers in the New Year with a game-changer

The Covi Motorhome, Caravan & Outdoor Supershow (17 – 19 March) will host Wilderness's launch of the trend-setting HYMER line up, introducing a level of premium motorhomes and caravans never before seen on our shores.

“It’s great!” enthuses Jim Tuhakaraina of his refurbished Brevio T600 motorhome.

SmartRV has given the ‘mix and mingle’ a helping hand with a VIP event for owners at the recent Camper Care New Zealand Motorhome, Caravan & Leisure Show in Christchurch on 5 November, the first ever for Carado owners in the South Island since the brand was launched at the same show last year.

The world’s biggest motorhome and caravan fair is a bellwether for the trends and health of the industry – judging by the 2016 Caravan Salon in Düsseldorf, it’s in very fine fettle.

The Ixeo Time IT590 sits within our mid-range Bürstner options, and as Motorhome, Caravans and Destinations reviewer Bill Savidan outlines, while it’s moderate in length, it’s definitely not short on space or style.

Raewyn and Peter, a lively couple from Napier, are first-home buyers of a different kind – the ‘take your home on the road without a care or a worry’ kind. This wasn’t initially the case, however. Raewyn admits the first time driving their Bürstner Nexxo T690G off off the Wilderness lot was rather nerve-wracking. They’d fallen in love with their new purchase and they didn’t want anything untoward to happen to their new baby.

Reviewers Bill Savidan and Jill Malcolm from Motorhomes Caravans & Destinations magazine took a long look at a Carado T449 motorhome recently and were impressed.

The Auckland Sales Centre will host our annual Oktoberfest Motorhome Expo on Saturday 15 October, from 9am to 2pm. This year’s event will feature our full lineup of new Carado and Bürstner models fresh from Germany along with a great range of second hand German motorhomes.

The Bürstner Grand Panorama boasts a full 9m of classy comfort but handles like a car, says owner Wayne Zaloum who describes how well the "fantastic vehicle" handles rugged New Zealand roads.
