Meet The AntVan — an honest, ready-to-travel HiAce campervan on Toyota's simplest and toughest diesel, the naturally-aspirated 5L, with a genuinely capable off-grid fitout and a real warranty behind it.
Like its namesake, The AntVan is small in fuss and huge in work ethic. This 2004 Toyota HiAce SLWB high roof is exactly the kind of honest, easygoing camper a lot of buyers are actually looking for. Under the bonnet is Toyota's legendary 5L — a 3.0L (2,986cc) four-cylinder naturally-aspirated, indirect-injection diesel. No turbocharger to fail, no common-rail electronics to fault, no diesel particulate filter to clog. It's the simplest and most forgiving diesel Toyota ever put in a HiAce, paired here with a 5-speed manual that makes it genuinely fun to drive, giving you more control on hills and back roads. It's not built for speed — it's built to keep going, cheaply and reliably, for years.
As an Australian-delivered vehicle, there's no import history to decode and no compliance paperwork to chase. The base is a genuinely well-kept ex-Salvation Army van — one of the last of the 100-series SLWB HiAces before Toyota moved to the new body — and the camper fitout is a recent, quality Australian build. Everything on board works perfectly and the van presents in near-new condition: it comes with service history, has just been serviced, and rides on 4 brand-new tyres. It's NSW registered right through to January 2027, and it's passed our strict Rising Rides inspection standards.
Inside, the SLWB high-roof body gives you a genuinely big living space — 3,170 × 1,530 × 1,630mm, roughly 7.9 m³, with 1.63m of headroom under a warm, arched timber slat ceiling. The fitout is genuinely travel-ready: a fixed rear double bed that sleeps 2 with storage beneath, a button-tufted lounge seat, a stainless kitchen with a Dometic removable tap and running water, a Waeco compressor fridge, a portable toilet, a full outdoor shower setup (a Tuff Terrain 30L road shower that heats as you drive, plus a roof-mounted privacy shower awning), and blackout curtains throughout. And the off-grid system is the real deal — every component from iTechWorld, one of Australia's best-known 12V power brands: 300W of solar, a 240Ah lithium battery, a 2000W pure-sine inverter, a 40A DC-DC/MPPT charger and a battery-monitor shunt, all working as one matched ecosystem — topped by a MaxxFan Deluxe roof fan for airflow in any weather. Outside, a Bushwakka 180-degree wraparound awning with integrated RGB LED lighting throws shade over a large living area and expands with optional walls or a sleepout tent. Unusually for a camper at this price, it's still backed by our 5-Year Nationwide Premium Warranty, included at no extra cost.

Australian-Delivered. A locally-delivered Toyota HiAce — no compliance paperwork to chase and no import history to decode. An Australian-market van, NSW registered and road-legal today.
Inspected & Prepared by Rising Rides. Put through the same workshop process as the rest of our stock — a full mechanical inspection, road test, service and professional detail, with a roadworthy certificate completed. It has passed our strict Rising Rides inspection standards. The odometer reads 198,800 km.
Near-New Condition, Fully Sorted. Everything on board is in perfect working order and the van presents in near-new condition throughout. It comes with service history, has been recently serviced, and rides on 4 brand-new tyres.
Well-Kept Base, Recent Australian Build. The donor vehicle is a genuinely well looked-after ex-Salvation Army HiAce — one of the last of the 100-series (H100) SLWBs before Toyota moved to the new body shape — and the camper fitout is a recent, quality Australian build. An honest, cared-for base with a fresh conversion on top.
Honest & Transparent. We are upfront about what this is: a genuinely capable, ready-to-travel camper built on Toyota's simplest and most reliable diesel era. It is sold with full transparency on its condition — and, unusually for a vehicle at this price, it is still backed by our 5-Year Nationwide Premium Warranty.
The Toyota 5L engine — the simple, tough one. 3.0L naturally-aspirated, indirect-injection diesel. No turbo, no common-rail, no DPF. Arguably the most forgiving and cheapest-to-run diesel Toyota ever fitted to a HiAce — paired with a 5-speed manual that's genuinely fun to drive and keeps you in control on hills and back roads.
Genuinely capable off-grid — all iTechWorld. 300W solar, 240Ah lithium, 2000W pure-sine inverter, 40A DC-DC/MPPT and a battery-monitor shunt — every component from iTechWorld, one of Australia's best-known 12V power brands, so it's one matched ecosystem with local support, not a mix of no-name parts.
MaxxFan Deluxe up top. Rain Dome, thermostat, power lift and remote, with a MaxxShade — the premium roof fan, not a basic vent.
A proper outdoor bathroom. A Tuff Terrain 30L road shower that heats as you drive, a roof-mounted Tuff Terrain privacy shower awning, and an internal portable toilet — genuinely self-contained for staying out longer.
Bushwakka 180° awning. A 180-degree wraparound awning (2.0m frame) in 320gsm HexaTough canvas with integrated RGB LED lighting and an insect-deterring red-light mode — a huge shaded outdoor room that expands with optional walls or a sleepout tent.
Honest history, recent build. An Australian-delivered, well-kept ex-Salvation Army HiAce — one of the last of the 100-series SLWBs — with a recent, quality Australian-built camper fitout on top.
Near-new condition, fully sorted. Everything in perfect working order — service history, recently serviced, and 4 brand-new tyres. Nothing to spend, nothing to fix.
Warm, timber-lined high-roof cabin. A 7.9 m³ living area with 1.63m of headroom under an arched timber slat ceiling — a genuinely nice space to travel and sleep in.
Long rego and a real warranty. NSW registered to January 2027 and backed by our 5-Year Nationwide Premium Warranty — a rare combination at $34,900.
