Thanks buddy, I’d of loved the 4motion version but just out of my budget unfortunately. At least when I get stuck in the mud I can sleep in the back and wait to be rescued 😂

Hi Shane, that sounds awesome buddy, a proper adventure wagon. Mines a long way from that but hopefully I’ll be able to get it somewhere near to what I’m after before the Spring. Mine will be more of a basic day van but then again, things snowball quite easily 😂 Thanks for watching 😁

Hi Smoggy it's crazy how I say one thing and end up doing another lol ,we also have reflective graphics, fully insulated and sound deaded interior, twin sliding soft closing doors and tailgate, with factory opening windows, factory LED head lights, a fully bespoke leather interior with the van haven logo embossed into the head rests charcoal black leather with blue piping and blue and light grey cross stitch. with 5 seats ,the 3 in the rear all are individual so can be removed 1, 2, or all 3 .we have twin swivel front seats with captain arms ,alcantar headling also on the A and B pillars, 14 extra LED interior lights, plus 12 usb ports .a 1000 watt inverter, a 40 litre fridge freezer, a 15 inch drop down TV dvd player ,upgraded alpine t6.1 front door speakers and tweeters, rear kicker roof mounted speakers and 2 kicker wall mounted sub woofers. We also have the GTI wheel arch extension kit ,front spoiler, mud flap kit ,triple air horns, plus a genuine American rail road air horn set up under the van consists of 5 large horns and large air tank and compressor under the vehicle, a 7 day programmable diesel heater, a 80 channel cb radio ,a 40 winks bed set up in the rear , a 15 litre secure vehicle safe , neoprene black out curtains and limousine tinted rear and side windows. A think ware hard wired front and rear dash cameras, and this week I have also had 360 degrees 4 camera set up fitted to the van with a dash mounted screen, that not only covers my vehicle's blind spots while driving, it also means we can monitor what's happening outside if we are wild camping. Oh and a heavy duty tow bar. I'm bound to have missed something lol. It's my 1st camper and my 1st transporter my van is on the Van Haven you tube channel, its the revena blue swamper with the stripes, it's hard not to miss it 🤟😀 really looking forward to seeing how you get on ,all the best and I will continue to support the channel 👍

@shanewaller2864 aye I think I’ve seen it now on some of the face book groups Shane. Very nice indeed, way more in depth than I’ll be going though…. Mine will have a bed and possibly a bin for discarded sandwich crusts, that’s about it 😂 That’s for supporting the channel buddy ☺️👍🏻

Hi.. great van. The ply screws would have gone right through the floor. Dab some paint on the holes then put pop rivets in to fill them, thats the easiest way to deal with it.
