The ultimate Australian dream: waking up facing the ocean in your own home on wheels. But before you start your Australia East Coast Road Trip, you have to make a choice: buy a second-hand van or rent a professional campervan?
1. Buying a Van
Pros: It’s yours! You can resell it at the end and potentially get your money back.
Cons: Stressful paperwork (Rego), mechanical risks, and the time needed to sell it at the end.
Best for: Trips longer than 3 months.
2. Renting a Van
Pros: Modern vehicles, 24/7 roadside assistance, and zero stress about repairs.
Cons: Higher upfront daily cost and no money back at the end.
Best for: Short adventures (2 weeks to 2 months) or travelers with a higher budget.
