For a long time now I’ve lusted after one of the American made ‘Airstream’ caravans but you just don’t see them Down Under, so I figured that one day when I had $100k burning a hole in my pocket I’d import one.
Well now it looks like I won’t have to with Airstream CEO, Bob Wheeler announcing they in talks with a local agent to sell them in Australia.
Good news!

I'm a road trip junkie! There's nothing I love more than packing up the 4WD and heading for the horizon in search of new adventures. In 2005-2007 I travelled 46,600 km over 16 months in around Australia with my wife Jen and 2 young daughters and built this site to share our trip. Now I divide my time between running my digital marketing business and Expedition Australia and planning the next adventure.
Ha! I have been lusting over these vans as well. I have been checking them out over the years on the internet and when in the U.S. a few years back, checked one out. Anyways, back on the net today and discovered they may be sold downunder. Good news!
Dreams do come true. We saw and photographed one of these babies at Roebuck Plains Roadhouse on our trip to Broome last July. It was a beauty and had a trailer setup with a Suzuki for the small trips.
Steve – We had our launch in Sydney and I am very sorry I didnt see your blob beforehand. I would have invited you.
If you would like any information or better yet want to spend that $100K please let me know!
Your project sounds great and will probably increase the number of overseas visitors!
