About Autohaus

Autohaus is one of the UK's leading luxury campervan conversion specialists, building on multiple vehicle platforms since 1994. The company offers a diverse range of models from compact VW campervans to larger Fiat Ducato and VW Crafter conversions.

The current range includes:

The Ashton — the flagship VW model, featuring a 120cm RIB bed and curved fridge front. Highly customisable with extensive optional extras.

The Ashton '94 — a heritage-inspired base model using flat fridge door furniture reminiscent of Autohaus's earliest 1994 conversions, but built with modern materials and appliances.

The Spartan — a wider conversion with 129cm RIB seating three in the rear, popular with larger families who want the wider bed.

The Camelot — developed for adventurers, featuring a discreetly located flushing toilet within the rear workspace. The Camelot C600 on VW Crafter was highly commended at Practical Motorhome Awards 2025.

The GT Spartan — based on the Ford Transit Custom for buyers wanting the Ford platform.

The Kingston — based on the larger Fiat Ducato L3H2, providing more living space than VW-based models.

The Crafter Grandi X — based on VW Crafter, offering a full kitchen and large wet room.

Ownership history

Autohaus has been manufacturing luxury campervan conversions for over 30 years. What started as a small business repairing caravans and motorhomes has grown into one of the UK's leading manufacturers of custom campervan conversions since 1994.

The company has remained independently owned throughout its history, growing organically from repair work into full conversion manufacturing. All vehicles are converted from brand-new vans sourced direct from manufacturers.

Autohaus has earned VCA Type Approval for all its conversions, meaning quality has been independently tested and verified to meet performance standards. The company has expanded from exclusively VW conversions to also offer models on Ford Transit Custom, Fiat Ducato, VW Crafter and Renault Trafic platforms.

What Autohaus is known for

30+ years of conversion expertise — from humble beginnings repairing caravans, Autohaus has built three decades of hands-on conversion knowledge.

Multi-platform range — unusually for a UK campervan converter, Autohaus builds on VW, Ford, Fiat, VW Crafter and Renault platforms, offering genuine choice of base vehicle.

Leather interior specialists — Autohaus specialises in premium leather interiors, not just upholstery but also interior panels on sliding doors, creating a luxurious cabin feel.

Award-winning Camelot — the Camelot C600 VW Crafter conversion was highly commended at the 2025 Practical Motorhome Awards, described as one of the most radical conversions on the market.

VCA Type Approved — all Autohaus conversions hold VCA Type Approval, providing independent quality verification that not all converters achieve.

Why people choose Autohaus

If you want choice of base vehicle — Autohaus's range across VW, Ford, Fiat, Crafter and Renault means you can choose your preferred platform from one trusted converter.

If premium leather interiors appeal — Autohaus's leather interior work, extending beyond seats to door panels and trim, creates a premium ambiance.

If you want a VW Crafter campervan — the Camelot and Crafter Grandi X offer award-winning Crafter conversions that are hard to find from other converters.

If you want a dual-purpose vehicle — the combination of VW Transporter versatility with Autohaus's practical conversion designs works well for weekday/weekend use.

What to watch out for

Single location — Autohaus operates from a single factory, meaning travel may be required for factory visits, sales and certain servicing.

Premium pricing — quality conversions on new base vehicles command significant prices, particularly on VW and Crafter platforms.

Waiting times — custom builds on new vehicles may involve waiting periods for both base vehicle delivery and conversion completion.

Compact dimensions on VW models — VW Transporter-based conversions are inherently smaller than Ducato-based alternatives.

Limited dealer network — as an independent manufacturer, Autohaus relies primarily on direct sales rather than a dealer network.

What to check when buying a used Autohaus

Identify the base vehicle and model — Autohaus builds on multiple platforms. Understand which base vehicle your model uses and its specific maintenance requirements.

Check the base vehicle — VW T6.1: service history, DSG if fitted. VW Crafter: service history. Fiat Ducato: cam belt, clutch. Ford Transit Custom: service history.

Check the elevating roof — operate the Reimo roof mechanism, check canvas condition, seal integrity and locking.

Conduct damp check around roof — the pop-top perimeter is the critical check on any elevating roof conversion.

Test all habitation systems — heating, cooking, electrical, water systems.

Warranty advice

Autohaus provides conversion warranty on new builds, with the base vehicle covered by VW, Ford, Fiat or Renault manufacturer warranty respectively. For used purchases, verify both conversion and base vehicle warranty status.

An independent warranty backed by the RAC is recommended for used Autohaus purchases outside the original warranty period.

OakTree Motorhomes offer up to three years of RAC-backed warranty, providing peace of mind on a quality British campervan conversion.

Dealer warranty

When buying a used Autohaus, look for a dealer that offers an independent warranty backed by a provider like the RAC. This means your warranty remains valid even if the dealer ceases trading. OakTree Motorhomes offer up to three years of RAC-backed warranty, covering the average ownership period.
