New 12 month MOT

This van is great to drive and gives endless flexibility. Within minutes it can be transformed from a very useful spacious van into a comfortable well equipped camper van. It is perfect for weekend adventures, festival trips or extended holidays!

The cab feels like a car with all the usual storage pockets, electric mirrors, electric windows and a heated windscreen. The steering wheel is fitted with easy access controls for the radio / CD player. A switched 12v multi socket ensures there is ample power for charging phones, a cool box, sat nav etc. The passenger seat has a large storage space underneath and the whole seat can be folded flat giving additional floor space and easy access to the door even with the bed fully extended.

The van has been fully insulated including the floor, roof and walls. The walls and roof are also covered with approved camper van carpeting. The floor carpet is removable revealing the hard wearing ply flooring. The lighting is provided by a low voltage ultra bright LED strip that runs round the roof area.

The removable metal frame has three folding marine ply seat sections, covered with easy clean fiber glass tops and cushions that can be used in a variety of ways as can be seen in the photos. When folded out it makes a very comfortable 6ft x 4ft double bed. The seating can easily be folded up and secured against the side leaving all the floor space available for moving large items.

There is massive storage space under the seat sections with additional room behind the frame for a 20ltr water container, the fold up table etc. Also located under the seat is a covered and secure leisure battery compartment. There is a carpeted, deep over cab cupboard which is easily large enough to store clothes, toiletries etc for two people on an extended holiday.

Both back doors are fitted with hanging pockets, ideal for all your cooking dishes, utensils, cleaning cloths etc. They also have two net pockets for heavier items. Under the floor is a secret storage area, ideal for keeping valuables out of sight.

For additional storage there is a large removable, lockable Thule Karrite roof box. This can be easily access from the side sliding door step.

You have the option of using either the 240V electric hook up on site or 12V electric from a leisure battery. This van also benefits from a pop up roof vent with insect screen, front and rear fog lights, a towbar with electrics and roof bars.

Included with this van are all the seat cushions, the fold-up table, the fire extinguisher, the carbon monoxide detector, the window foils and the roof box.
 
What a fantastic, flexible layout.

I'm not in the market for a new camper but I would love a copy of the plan for that multipurpose metal frame you made in the back, if you have one.

Tam.
