WARRANTY, SUPPORT & PRICE PROTECT
Here at Achtung Camper we offer PRICE PROTECT on our vans! This is a big win for our customers, and this is on offer on the whole package – vehicle and conversion! If there is a price rise after you place your booking or deposit, we will wear the increase. Volkswagen recently announced that they are removing their price protect, but not us!
Achtung Camper provides a five-year warranty on our campervan and motorhome conversions and pride ourselves on going the extra mile with ongoing after sales assistance, no matter how old your Achtung Camper or who you bought it from. We’ll stay in touch after you drive away and be there for you down the track when you decide you really should have had the projector and move screens installed after all.
We also have three service centre locations: Geelong, Victoria, Sydney, NSW and Burleigh Heads, QLD. To book in for your campervan service or aftermarket items please email our after sales manager on aftersales@achtungcamper.com.au.
We are proud to build our conversions on Volkswagen and Mercedes vehicles – their five-year unlimited km warranty on their Transporters, Crafters and Vitos is unbeatable, with a vast network of service centres all around Australia.
And lastly, although you are not thinking about this yet…one day a long, long, long way away when you decide your vanning days are over, we’ll help you by utilising our vast potential-client database and getting the word out that your Achtung Camper is For Sale.
SAFETY
All our campervans and motorhomes come with full volume compliance plate approval certification for your state. We have second stage manufacturer approval so have undertaken rigorous testing and government compliance. Why is this important? Without certified government approval you are driving around uninsured for your conversion/modifications and are liable for any issues an overweight or unsafe conversion causes on the road.
We also undertake quality control and testing when your van is complete to make sure it lives up to our high standards. What’s more, Achtung Camper’s are built by the people who use them – we drive to the supermarket during the week, to kinder every day, around Australia when we can; with our daughter in the back. We know our most precious cargo in the world is safe in an Achtung Camper.

The best quality products from reputable brands mean Achtung Camper Campervan and Motorhomes will last the distance. Our products are local or European made and are from brands we believe in. Our rock and roll beds are manufactured to our own unique design in Melbourne, our upholstery is sewn in Geelong, our cabinetry is cut in Melbourne, our pop top roofs are imported from the United Kingdom and our plumbing accessories (plus much more) are imported from Germany.
PRODUCTS WE TRUST
Maxiply’s Birch ply is covered with a smooth melamine film to ensure durability and a high wear and moisture resistance. We love the superior edge detailing that Birch is renowned for.
Utilised on the walls and ceiling of our campervans, this carpet adds another layer to reduce noise and gives a plush, modern finish. It’s non-fray, static neutral, made in Australia and environmentally friendly.
Quality fittings mean your conversion is secured firmer for a longer and safer life. And what better products than those from the world’s leading company in the field of furniture accessories, fittings and locking technology.
All our campervans are fitted with a made to measure wooden floor topped with commercial grade hardwearing vinyl. This double layer helps maintain a comfortable temperature inside your campervan and also improves soundproofing.
Every Achtung Camper owner is different and so are their campervans. All our cabinetry and shelving is cut by skilled joiners, made to measure and fitting with precision.
We import our European style pop top roofs from the UK from a pop top roof manufacturer who has been supplying the best UK and European campervan companies with roofs for longer than we’ve been alive(!). Gas strut assist means the roof is opened and closed easily and you’ll have no loud rattling from metal springs while driving. What’s more, the European style tilted roof means you’ll have more stability when the weather gets hardcore.
