Wow , I had to watch twice...outstanding !

What a class job. I'd be proud to call it mine.

Thanks for all your comments and thoughts. Its been a year since I did the conversion and the camper van is still going strong and we are very happy with it after taking it away on many trips with my family. I have made a few minor changes since I did the build. I have put the bonnet and front bumper back into pearl white the same as the rest of the van, added a roof vent to the roof box and a few other minor alterations. To answer your comments on the roof box this was a big decision when doing the conversion because the biggest problem you find with a small camper van is room and storage, especially when there are two adults and two kids going away in it. So this is why I opted for the solid roof box and practicality over looks and design it more for our needs, as it gives us a large area of storage in the front of the box for clothes etc and being able to stand up fully when cooking and washing etc.. Also only making it half way across the roof lets me have the external storage box on the roof at the back and this is great as we do a lot of mountain biking and with the uk weather its great for storage of wet gear, external awing etc and this stops from having to keep it in the van and cause damp problems etc. The roof box seems aero dynamic but I haven't had it in a wind tunnel just yet... the mpg doesn't seem to be affected too. The bed is a rock and roll bed and also with the bench seat in the front that turns round we can use this for one of the kids to sleep on if needed. When I did this build at first it was done for a bit of fun and I never thought I would put that much time and effort into it but I am pleased to say where ever I go in it I always get nice comments about it, so I will not please everyone as each to there own, but thanks for all your views and comments and any questions I will try to answer.. Thanks again..

Pesao! Pesao! Imposible terminar de ver! Se te quitan las ganas con tanta fotito!

Bravo pour ce travail, c'est superbe!Thanks for sharing, excellent work!

I enjoyed the video. A great bus. Thanks for sharing.

Impressive! Lots of good ideas. Thank you for sharing!

Beautiful! WOW!

Excellent conversion, brilliant really enjoyed it, the flipping of pictures are a little heavy on the eyes after a few beers ha ha, cracking job well done..

Good job!!

first class job, thinking of doing the same but I doubt I would be able to get the finish that you have.. excellent work

Good good job thanks 👍

great choice of music and a good conversion well done

love your van man

Thanks for all your comments good or bad as it is always good to hear feedback. This conversion was done for a bit of fun really, as I always wanted to do one and wondered if I could. If anyone is ever planning on doing one, a big thing I suggest is plan ahead in everything you do about the conversion as it really helps. Just to let everyone know since I did the conversion back in 2013 I decided to remove the solid roof box and fit a pop up roof. It does look a lot better but the practicality side of storage is now more of a problem but the van is still going strong and I love going away in it for weekends away with the family.

Top job. I'm in a similar situation, reliable works van (trafic) that's all paid for but has a low roof. You've got me thinking regarding the plywood extension (which looks fine imo) bit nervous about cutting a hole in the roof though! A clever solution, thanks for the idea.

nice work :)

Top job :-)

Freemason floor pattern, nice.

AWESOME!!!!

i agree ! the roof box looks so NAFF ! sorry mate and will cripple MPG but the conversion is first class ! top marks for that, i would rip that box off the top and get a fibreglass pop top for the roof ,

Have you thought about putting a cabina 4 sided tent on the back doors ? They're great for an outside shower cubicle or toilet and are completely private.

Really nice job glad you changed the roof but still top work....were the kitchen units standard width and depth or did the require some reducing..👍👍

Nice job mate! May I ask where you got the seats from? Are you happy with the rotating base plate? And how did you attach the cupboards to the walls? I've bought myself a Trafic a little while ago and looking at a similar project. Cheers, James

The roof looks a bit ify! You sure it meets RTA construction & use regs?

I like that you have tried something a bit different and it was no doubt a cheaper option than the pop top roofs like on a Mazda Bongo. I had an ancient old caravan (to see if we liked the idea of caravan holidays) that I used to take onto site and plenty people would offer friendly advice and comment on them used to having one similar or by the company that made them. People on sites tend to be friendly rather than wanting to slate others since its a bit of community spirit. I have one question about the van. Do you struggle to access the cupboards where the rock n roll bed sits adjacent? Looks like little room for opening the doors but that might just be the angle of the photograph.

👍👍👍

Drivers side window fitted wrong its a sliding door window 😂 didn't you realise that m8..... sos for laughing.

Nice job! If it works for you that's all that matters, there is obviously a lot of skill and effort gone into the conversion! Could you tell me about the cupboards? Are they a kit or is it a kitchen unit conversion? I have just bought a Trafic so I am planning a similar build now.

Hate Robbie. Love the van

Incredible conversion; well done! What was the total cost of the conversion? And which Ikea kitchen unit did you get? - The kitchenette looks very impressive inside the van.

why not just buy a high top vivaro to start with says cutting holes in the roof

Hi, did you use kitchen wall units or base units to make kitchen? If so what sizes? Thanks

hi bud, where is the folding bed from or was it custom made?

no bed?

Hi mate can u remember the size of all the units as thinking of doing one same layout.

😬😬😬🤞🤞🤞🤯🤯🤯🤯

what is the purpose of the roof???
