RE: Safari Caravans


Hi all new kid to the forum, my wife and I are planning in 5yrs to see this great country of ours. Still looking for used off road van that we can live in for a very long time to travel and work our way around Australia. I have read through reviews on different vans and so far the Road star Safari tamer seems to be the choice as I haven't found a bad review does not mean there isn't. Has anyone had or have 2010 Road star that has had problems it would be great for any help, thanks in advance.

Welcome to the gang Sergio, enjoy here and out in the playground.

I only know a few that have a Roadstar and not sure if Safari or not but they are all happy campers.

Just make sure if you go new that the max ATM is stamped on the compliance plate and you don't load up over that weight, very, very important these days. 

 

 

Keep Safe on the roads and out there.

G'day Sergio

Can't help re the Safari I'm afraid but welcome to the forum.  Don't forget to try the two ongoing games here - 'Who is This' in the 'I Digress' section and 'Pick this Place' in the 'General' Section - a great source to find new places to visit.

Thanks for the welcome and advice Chief, I read that a couple that purchased a van filled up all 3 tanks and took to weigh bridge and found it didn't leave them much for food clothes etc and turned one tank into a grey water tank.

Is there another section in the forum in which I can ask the same questions?

Sergio, Suggest that you evidence a weighbridge ticket on your intended purchase (prior to any funds handed over). There is several Websites that have listed "Lemon" caravans and Dealers to avoid - the model you are enquiring does not have any latent faults listed on those sites, But; Do due diligence on your unit and seller as there is no implied warranty un used caravans. Perhaps have Caravan Council inspection or use their checklist when inspecting the unit www.caravancouncil.com.au/rv-buyers Note this is free from CCA to download and should help you in your endeavours.

Hope to see you out there,
