Wicked Campers
Ok so Queensland Transport has gone through Wicked campers and taken nearly all of them off the road.
http://www.abc.net.au/news/stories/2010/01/10/2788937.htm
These are all Japanese mini vans, so what does BigPond show on their news(?) a split window kombi !!

Take about maligning the VW name.

Nice spot, left hand drive. You would think BigPond would know better as their main advertising promotion features a split window kombi.

Telstra's left hand wouldn't know what the right hand is doing.
The Wicked Camper story is on page 2 of today's (Monday's) Daily Telegraph. At least there is no photo of a VW Kombi - no photo at all in fact.
Apparently Wicked Campers have 944 vehicles in their fleet, with 611 registered in QLD and the rest in NSW and VIC. They also have a subsidiary in New
Zealand. Their owner/director John Webb is quoted as saying "In the past year we voluntarily took 50 vans off the road, being less than 5% of our
fleet. We plan to put 500 new vans on the road this year, and will replace any pre-2004 models."
So that rules out any old Kombis. Hopefully they'll replace all their old Japanese vans with brand new VW T5s - but I doubt it.

IMHO, they should all be landfill with the weed-seeking middleclass euro-trash that has no fkin idea what 'clean up yer fkin' mess means. They
should be banned from National Parks and Beaches. Mr Webb needs to get a fkin clean up bill, the piece of crap L300s are just part of the problem.

Wicked campers, god love them and the euro Boobs (tits) that ride in them. I work in Byron Bay once a week and see heaps of them. And the euro trash
save heaps driving them and spend the cash at your local and round towns all up the east coast.
