Thread: How you feel about Volkswagen Multi VAN for mission and living

I always want to drive an ute or suv like most of you are driving, but I can `t. It `s not because I can `t afford it, just because my situation. The car I am using is a Nissan xtrail 2.0L that I bought as NZ new in 2015, and I love it very much because it never let me down, and we spent over 120,000km on it. Lots of good memories from the tip of north down to the bottom of south island, and that `s why during the covid years I still pay for full insurance and the cost of letting it sitting in a motel for three years.

I am going back soon but I have to face the same issue, the cost of living in a motel. Why motel, not rental? Because I have to move with jobs or any opportunities that could help me rest of fishing and hunting days. To terminate a fixed rental contract is not easy, and I am not that sort of man can make it easy. So, now I am thinking to have this van because it has 4wd capability which is essential to me, and I can live in it on a camp park to save lots of money. Motel cost me too much, $900 a week is the cheapest, before covid in Christchurch is only about $550 PW.

So, anyone has experience with this multi van, 4wd, the cost of owning it, performance, reliability, offroads capability. I watched some videos on Youtube but commercials is not reality. Also, living in a holiday park on it, any thoughts? I have lots of camping experience, but not like this.

Thank you
