Antony is a licensed vehicle trader and has been selling budget backpacker campervans for 20 years in Christchurch and has built and used them for even longer. Chester St Campers is not a backpackers’ car market but it’s as close as you can get in Christchurch now. 

 

Vans are priced according to age, mileage, set up and condition. Variants include automatic or manual, petrol or diesel, 2WD or 4WD, short or long wheelbase or some high roof motorhomes.

 

 

Campers are set up with most camping gear and are ready to go with a new WOF safety inspection, have been serviced and have a mechanical guarantee and buy back guarantee. Backpacker insurance is available from $1/day.

 

Payment can be made in cash (NZ$, US$, EURO), credit card (with a 3.25% charge) or NZ bank transfer. If you are planning to come to NZ and buy immediately then bring cash as there are daily withdrawal limits.

 

A camper can be put aside for you if you let Antony know your preferences. Please email or phone to discuss.

 

Due to the recent rise in numbers of freedom campers, we encourage responsible travel – staying in designated camping areas (often free for self contained vans), camping grounds and backpacker hostels.
