| Taken at the recent exchange rate of $1.00NZ=$0.41US:

| very tidy very fast great-handling RELIABLE peoplemover/cargohauler.

Since buying my Westy new in '87, I've more than paid the its purchase price
again
in parts and repairs. Taken at any exchange rate, that's a lot of cash.

Based on my fifteen years of Westy ownership, at the end of the day (any day,
you
pick one), I've pretty much got a fifteen year old very tidy, cargo hauler/more
comfortable than a tent/cheaper than a
hotel/more fun than a mini-van vehicle that could leave me stranded at the side
of the road with warning.
