Lived in a van o er 4 yrs with my two bicycles. Such a great felling to be home in the woods after riding a trail. Awesome. Happy for you. All the best from the states.
-
So pleased for you. I know you have wanted this for so long and your excitement really comes across in the video.
-
Oh wow, Juliet, that is absolutely fabulous!! I'm looking forward to seeing more of your adventures already!! 🤩
-
Congratulations Juliet you’ll make many wonderful memories in that van. Take care Juliet
-
Absolutely brilliant! Congrats and hope you have many years of fun with it!
-
So beautiful. You are going to a blast with that. We purchased an 05 Airstream Interstate that is built on a Sprinter. Now we parked it at trailhead, ride, have our little home with us. Congratulations and thanks for sharing.
-
Looks brilliant, loved the countour lines on the roof & trig lights, and the little mountain peaks under the window - enjoy 😍
-
Love it! Super adaptable and agree with built in kitchens etc. Fair play for those that need it but a portable hob and a decent width bed is the combo for me! Enjoy and look forward to seeing it evolve on your adventures.
-
Wow! very nice, a real memory maker. Take care Juliet, we look forward to you sharing your journey's with us . ... Chow!
-
Looks lovely I love the rear side out cooking station set up enjoy the great outdoors
-
Looks awesome Juliet. We really rate our eberspacher too. Do let us know when you're ready for any additional fork mounts so you can load up, roll out and wake up to adventure 👌🏼
-
Love the van! I've hired quite a few for trips over the years (from small ones to big-arse RVs) and will probably buy one eventually. Not sure I agree about the outdoor-only kitchen - shitty weather and sandflies/midges/mozzies always makes inside cooking a lot more enjoyable. Can't wait to se all the adventures that the new van opens up for you.
-
So cool, love the slide our tray for the bike. Can't wait to see your vids
-
Very nice. Only one thing missing. I love the pop up roof in my T5. It’s good being able to stand up and is cooler in summer at night.
-
I knew you would eventually! There's so many places to go and ride, and a van makes it all more comfortable. Brilliant. (240v hook up does make life easier if you're parked up for a few days).
-
Superb😱 Everything you could ever need👍 You’re going to look so professional parked next to someone in a cold, damp Ford Transit😄👍 So glad you’ve shown us around the van! It’s inspirational in itself🤩👍
-
Beautiful build, I think I just fell in love with the van
-
I might be the only one left devoid of any kind of van these days, ouch! 🤕 The set up is nifty and well-arranged, surely fit for purpose ! You've got everything you might need in there; the pegboard is a gem! A dream that has finally come true, yes it is. Wish you and the children a lot of blessings and so much fun with the van! 🚌
-
I love the work they’ve done on the ceiling, and that hanging rack is pretty cool. I also agree that natural materials look way better than the glossy piano black conversions you see everywhere. Personally, electric hookups are overrated having a decent solar panel on the roof and a battery to battery charger means I only need to plug in during the depth of winter and that’s only if I want to keep the fridge running. I do find it quite ironic though that you live in what must be the UKs campervan nexus yet travelled to Scotland for a conversion! So many great conversion companies in Cornwall and Devon. Look forward to seeing your adventures.
