I hired a splittie from these guys in NZ and it was fab

Always seem to pick up the better looking hitch hikers in a splittie!!!
The new water cooled ones do nothing for me and I doubt hold their value as much as an air cooled ones and they do seem to be very pricey.
Is a bit of a lifestyle choice and I could have had a faster better equipped van but instead went for an old un (71)and have not had any regrets but instead loads of smiles

In reply to Dick Barton, an old VW is more than adequate for camping and biking. The thing you have to remember is that you don't buy a 1960's/ early 70's vehicle to expect it to perform like a vehicle 40 years younger.
Part of the charm is being outside of the run of the mill rat race, that demands you get to wherever it is you're going as fast as you can. You break the journey up, and enjoy the scenery along the way.We've just returned from a 2 week adventure in the Lakes with our bikes (which we also got married in the middle of of :D) and my camper performed faultlessly for the entire time!
