Ducato handled like a breeze block and as gutless as one!! 6 speed autobox never made its mind up what gear it wanted to be in!! But given the size and weight of the body, complete with inboard watermarks I guess it's understandable. Regardless, it did the job for the 10 days we lived in it. Fabulous country full of really nice people..... I could easily live here...:)

Delighted to see you are enjoying yourself Nige. They had no autoboxed RV's when we went 15 years ago, so I'm glad to see that NZ have at last reached the 20th century. :y

Fixed, you have to replace the www with dl and add ?dl=1to the end (which had already been done) for dropbox images to display correctly to everyone on a forum (it forces the browser to download the image)  :y

Some of those landscapes look pretty brown and parched.  Have they had a dry summer?  :-\
