    Good to see the filth is off the streets...

    If only they put as much effort into servicing the vans as they did into putty witty slogans on the back.

    I know someone who drove one and he said he put as much oil as he did petrol into the pile of ****e

    Found this song 'Wicked Camper Blues' by a guy called Rob Imeson and I think it sums up what a lot of people have thought about Wicked Vans...

    haha ye we must have. The Pacman one wasnt great though, and now that i think of it, our tyres were pretty bald and the van always veered to the left until we pumped the tyres up evenly. good bit of power in our one tho. we used to floor it when takin off and there'd always be a bit of wheel spin. the other 2 hadnt enough welly to do a wheelspin, even on gravel. Pacman always had hassles gettin up hills too! lol and there was that time in Nimbin the sliding door at the side fell off when i leant on it! that was gas.

    We had a great time in ours. But we were also lucky and had one of the newer vehicles. Saw some shabby ones about the place.

    Our one revved so high when idling that you didnt need to use the accelerator when taking off.

    Just release the clutch and your away.

    I dunno' Cheapo car rental is just that, the Rental of Cheapo cars, people generally know what to expect with a Wicked van.

    As an Aside I used to know the guy who painted a lot of the vans
