Chid 6,376 Posted January 22, 2023 Report Share Posted January 22, 2023 Jiggy if you get one get a towbar fitted onto it before you do any interior work .. even if you think you won't use one even if you just get the electrics wire up . Nowt worse then trying to wire one up once the insides have been insulated and carpeted ect . Cause I can pretty much guarantee you'll want one eventually lol 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Leo Sayer 1,703 Posted January 23, 2023 Report Share Posted January 23, 2023 Just in the process of doing one up myself, I bought one part converted ish, but gonna rip it all out and start again and add windows roof vent and get rid of double bed as it will just be for me and the dog for a little weekends mooching here and there. Probably won't stay on campsites much , just ruff it hear and there. It's only a swb low roof, but be big enough for me and the dog. 11 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Gypsydog94 4,328 Posted January 23, 2023 Report Share Posted January 23, 2023 I had a Peugeot expert van for a while. Loved the thing had a bed in the back for roughing it. Was ideal for an early morning mooch somewere just as dawn was breaking. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

jigsaw 11,809 Posted January 23, 2023 Author Report Share Posted January 23, 2023 (edited) The one rule unfortunately with my lad is no dogs allowed in it under any circumstances,this is just a fishing ,weekend away / short break bus ,..what frightens me is the thought of being in the back of the van overnight ALONE with his mother Edited January 23, 2023 by jigsaw 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
