    Family of 4 moving to New Zealand

    Driving a LHD vehicle in NZ is difficult as most roads and even state highways are only dual carriageway ie. one lane north and one lane south. Roads are generally twisty and hilly making passing difficult enough in a RHD vehicle. Also there are not many options to make use of real 4*4 camper.

    Camper vans in NZ seem to hold their value very well, so you would not loose much over your stay. Kea sells ex lease campers. https://www.rvsupercentre.co.nz/ex-rental-motorhomes-for-sale Trade Me is the eBay of Nz, most dealers and private sellers will list here...

    Once you have paid for shipping to and from Nz, bio security inspection / cleaning, vehicle registration etc. You are better off buying a camper van in NZ and selling it again when you are ready to go home.

    Swing arm suspension?

    You should not conclude anything from my reply. I am not the one disliking Torflex. I only wanted to share the Timbren option with the OP.
