Product knowledge, passion, honesty, and enthusiasm

I was looking for a new outback style caravan and went to see Mike and Jared while I was in Nelson for work. What impressed me over the other dealers I had been to, was their product knowledge, passion, honesty, and enthusiasm.

Throughout the whole purchasing and build process, which was affected by a number of outside influences beyond their control, they constantly communicated with us and offered us solutions to expediate the delivery process. The final product was exactly what we had expected and to see, and the pride they took in knowing that they had delivered us such a fantastic caravan was great to see. Thank you Mike & Jared!

Really wanting us to get exactly what we were after

Mike and Jared have had their patience well and truly tested by us. This was our first caravan and we didn’t have any idea on what we wanted. These boys worked through the process with us, listening and informing us as we went, never being pushy and really wanting us to get exactly what we were after. Finally we pressed go and when our caravan was delivered we were overwhelmed. Have kept in contact since and will pop in and see them when we roll through Nelson next time. Cheers Lads.

Great guys and a great Caravan

Mike and Jared at SOTA RVS were awesome to work with. They made the whole experience of purchasing our Wild Trekker 18.6 easy and enjoyable. Great guys and a great Caravan!!

Very supportive

We ordered a new caravan at the NZMA show in Christchurch from Mike and Jarrod of Sota RV. They were friendly and obliging and in spite of being very busy they took the time to sit down with us and answer our questions. They never made us feel pressured to make a purchase. Delivery was delayed but Mike kept us fully informed throughout the process.

It was great to be able to sit down with Mike and Jarrod and choose our layout and colours. Both Mike and Jarrod were very supportive when we took ownership of our new Sunset Caribbean and came to the camp with us to ensure everything was set up correctly. They have always been available to us to answer any questions we had after purchase.

10/10 for product and service

Sota RV have been great to deal with and have made the whole process of ordering a new custom off road caravan a breeze from the ordering to the delivery, with constant check-ins on progress to organising our pick up day. We are very impressed with the caravans appearance, build quality and performance. We loved that the caravan was already filled with water and gas upon our arrival so we could get cracking on the adventures without having to mess around!

We have taken our 18.6 Family Haven off road multiple times to remote 4wding areas and it has been an absolute game changer to family camping with young children!

10/10 for product and service.

We were blown away, this was next level

Firstly I want to make it very clear that my wife and I have not been paid to offer this testimonial and certainly only make statements when we are impressed with service and the people behind it.

Our story is probably unique. After a six week tour of the South Island in a relatively new, under warranty, brand name caravan, that we decided we would keep, we were sitting waiting to catch the ferry home. My wife glanced sideways at a magnificent beast of a caravan pulling alongside us in the next boarding lane. “Look at that, an 18.6 footer with a single axle.” I looked right and there it was. I think it was at that exact moment a sale was already made.

I was looking at a grey with blue highlights, checker plate finish, 18.6 Sunset Wildtrekker Off Road caravan and man what a machine. Me and the missus were out of the ute like we had been told a bomb had been found under it. Time was short but we walked around it and Mike and Jared opened it up for us to give it the once over. We were blown away, this was next level with a beautiful finish and it had our full attention. Turns out they were on the way to the Covi show with three new caravans. The bait had been cast and this trout was on the line and heading for the net.

We spotted Mike and Jarod on the ferry and the interrogation of back ground, build quality, time to delivery and heaps of other questions began. Straightaway we could tell these guys were genuine and thoroughly believed in their product. An order was placed then and there with no hesitation at all. Five months later, an exact copy of the one we saw in Picton was being handed over to us and we think it’s awesome.

Mike and Jared are great. Nothing is too difficult or too much trouble. My wife is a good judge of character and thinks they are great business people, personable and totally back up what is an amazing product. The caravan looks stunning inside and out and finished with quality materials and attention to detail. I am certain we are going to get a lot of use and have some comfortable and practical times with this unit.

Thank you Mike and Jared for your service and friendship.

Our Rodeo Off Road is the perfect adventure van

Our 21’6 Rodeo Off Road is the perfect adventure van, which has already given us a lot of pleasure, “out there doing it” in the great NZ outdoors. More importantly, our relationship with Mike and Jarrod has been excellent throughout the purchase process, enduring all the trials of caravan builds the last couple of years have thrown at us all. Total respect to these guys for all their efforts to ensure we and the other SOTA clients have a caravan of high quality, with all the “ bells and whistles “, to take caravan holidays to another level of enjoyment. And as a plus, the banter is pretty good as well!
Cheers.
