Overview
The Budgie is a 4.5m manual campervan with an esky, no bathroom, no pets, from age 18. The Euro Mini is fully self-contained with toilet, shower, aircon, and a 78L proper fridge, requiring 21+ drivers. These two are at opposite ends of the market and don't genuinely compete — the Budgie is purely a budget entry-level hire; the Euro Mini is a properly equipped self-sufficient campervan.
