  • Our micro camper is no more! We've just brought a new van to convert into a campervan. This van conversion will be built as a budget van conversion first . After that it'll be a bit more of a nice campervan conversion before the final build being a high end campervan build.
    This is me introducing my new 2019 vw crafter van conversion project
    Thanks for checking out our vanlife uk channel here on youtube where we self convert vans for full time van life in the UK.
    We share many adventures and vanlife activities along with vanlife tricks and tips.

    How much would these cost, or is it a deal due to the videos. Have smaller van but always thought it’s worth doing the larger one when it’s just about the same time and effort, but possibly more cost. Would be good to hear how it’s done. And costs
