We have an old 2006 Windsor Genesis and the air con has gone, will cost approx $4000 I think to replace which is way to much for us and the age of the van. Does anyone know anything about the 2 portable air cons I mentioned above, maybe an option?

Hi. I'm in the market for a new van and have discovered that many van have their chassis, walls, roof, floor made in China and assembled here. They are $10-$15,000 less on average.

I live in WA and I am purchasing a brand new caravan in NSW, so it won't be licensed in NSW (I will have a 5 day travel permit). As we intend to pick up the caravan and travel up the East Coast, is it possible to license the caravan in WA while we are interstate? Any advise would be much appreciated.
