2Ring ahead, then go see it
Australian Off Road sells factory-direct - you deal with the factory, not a dealer network. Ring ahead to check what's on display.
When you call, ask:
- Have you got the Australian Off Road Matrix in the yard now, or is it on order?
- Can I come and walk through it this week?
- What's your best drive-away price on it?
- Is it the same build I compared, with matching layout, weights and features?
3When you get there, check
- The compliance plate - check the tare and ATM against the specs you compared here. The plate carries the legal numbers.
Where the plate is and how to read it - Water damage - soft spots in the floor, stains on the walls, or a musty smell in the cupboards.
How to spot water damage - That everything works - lights, water pump, fridge, gas, and the brakes and hitch.
The full inspection checklist, system by system - Sort your finance before you hand over a deposit, so you are never committed to a van you cannot finance.

Delivery and freight
Australian Off Road builds to order, so you collect from the factory or have it delivered to you. Interstate freight is a real cost, often a few thousand dollars, and it climbs with distance, so budget for it.
