Very nice build! I appreciate that it’s not one of the “unlimited budget” vans that are becoming so common now on RUclips. I enjoy seeing regular people’s projects, including smart money-saving DIY solutions!! I have a smaller self-built van right now, but am working my way up to a longer wheelbase box van like this one.
Love the roll away toilet. I've always thought that would be a good idea for maximizing space. I'd love to see someone do a roll away incinerator toilet!
Absolutely brilliant job, guys. Last year I’ve got exactly the same van and soon I’ll start my rebuild journey with it as well! These videos will be and are definitely priceless!🤍
That sliding toilet and wardrobe design is a great use of space, I was never keen on the toilet in the shower thing when I saw them. It is only a matter of time before someone falls with those stairs you're using with all the uneven ground they will be used on, at the very least add some brackets to the stairs so you can slot them onto the side of the truck so they can't tip over. Steps can be a hard problem to solve, especially if you don't have space directly under the door for them to fold into.
I've watched a TON of these van life videos and I have to say, I absolutely love your toilet solution (roll-away, shower access). Absolutely the way I want mine if I ever do this. Thanks for sharing! :)
Ditch the battery shunt! Those renogy batteries are smart, they work great by just linking them together with Ethernet cables and then using renogy’s own monitoring screen to display all of the information. They also stay self balanced as well as a result. I have some hooked up and it’s flawless! I think the battery monitoring screen is less than £30
Just subbed, one thing I would suggest is that you make that door opening device anti-dog. When I was younger my mum and dad went out and locked me and my sister out of the caravan. By getting the dog to jump up he knocked the latch down and we could get in!!
I wish these box truck people would address their annual insurance costs and if they have been honest declaring they live-in full-time. It is an issue in the states. A VIN sometimes cannot be changed, so if the box truck VIN lists it as commercial that is the insurance you have to retain and it does not allow you to live in it full-time. This is why I purchased a hurricane-damaged class-C RV that I removed the coach from and am purchasing a box to install and build out to my specs.
Love it, Thanks for sharing your home with us! Love your dog's too, Many years ago I had a Springer named Skipper who loved playing with skunks, Unfortunately he didn't understand that even though he never got tiered they did, that's when he would get sprayed. Lol thank for bringing back old memories! "(Keep some Tomato Juice & Pause on hand just in case)" lol its only thing that will kill the smell
I've been getting a lot of ideas lately. The idea of a hidden shower (Louis The Van) and toilet, a space for an e-bike, etc. Ultimately, I'd like a huge open space with a gaming (mistersunshinebaby) and entertainment area for one. I'm hoping to gather all these ideas and be able to create my ideal space. Lucky I'm shorter at 166cm so I'll be able to sleep comfortably width wise on a double bed of a cargo van.
Love❤️from Mumbai, India 🇮🇳 to you both! Really i can Feel good vibes from you guy's you made this campervan with love & so much affection you have with this van & created beautiful good memories to remember for life long 💕 😌😇 god bless you with more love wealth health and happiness 😇 New subscriber 🤗
Maybe my favorite box van build..great job. Whats your fuel economy ? Just read from the website the fuel economy is insane !! Thanks for the post !!! Not ready to do this yet but if I can get this in the US, this is the one. I was doing my travel budget and was stock on fuel cost, with a Iveco unit its about three times as good.
She’s amazing. Just wish I had the time and money to build something similar. Not bitter though. You’ve worked hard and now it’s time to play hard lol.
Thanks so much! Crazy that she's finally done ( well .. I'm sure we will find things to tinker with and fix ) 100% looking forwards to getting out and making some memories 👏👏
The build is awesome, the most spacious and well thought design. I appreciate and find very helpful the Amazon links but you need to know that you repeated the link from the inverter again towards the booster. Thanks for sharing the experience!
Have to say I absolutely love this build! After moving into my Fiat Ducato full time I realise the extra space of a luton box makes a world of a difference. Shame here in Ireland you can't convert a luton box into a camper legally :/, anyways I look forward to seeing new content from you both!
Well done guys ! Fair play! I've been watching from the very start 👏 👌 🙌 👍 hopefully I'll be making a start finally on mine soon haha ! Hope to see more of you guys ! Keep up the good work !!its paid off in the end ! Much love ! Cardiff southwales!💪🏿👊🏿
Hi there 👋👋I’m back filming now and posting again. It’s just me (Heather) on the channel now, but still hoping to bring you some great videos and adventures
hi ,i really love how you did your van ,im looking for tips and im gonna nick your rear lounge lay out its great , looking at your vid i did see something i would like to make you aware of , i see potentially 9 points on the drivers licence and fine for a detail you overlooked
Thank you that ties the build together nicely. The only thing I am not sure about is the walk through which I remember you cutting through. I wondered, as the "box" is separate from the van chassis, did you have to do anything special to seal between the two and allow for a little relative movement ?
Thank you 😁👏 Yes it's connected with a rubber accordion gasket, which is a rubber material with several folds to allow the box and can to move naturally, you can get them on the camper van culture website :)
Why not put a shelf above the dog bed and electric controls? You could use it as a shelf or put another dog bed on it that can be accessed via the couch.
OMG in another life the two of you would be my best friend! Lol seriously I say that because of just how down to earth you two are and funny really really funny! In love with your fur babies and what a fantastic home you have, you guys should be so proud of what you created. If I were to be able to build out my own which I can’t do right now but soon I would build it exactly like yours. I especially love the roll out loo and your dining table is absolutely beautiful! So my name is Lynn and I am now a new subscriber looking forward to all of your videos. Be safe take care and thanks for sharing your van tour or box tour whichever. ✌🏻🥰🥰🥰
Woooww! Definitely a few things in here I haven't thought of yet for my future build, I'm impressed. The van is 3.5T right? I may be getting the same one
Fantastic conversion, I'm going to be looking to do the same in the next year to a luton van with long wheel base like yours and watching your tour has really settled my mind that there is plenty of space 👍
So much space.. heigh is the only issue for us, we are taller than most mother homes 😅 but inside we have 2.3m so there are Luton's smaller than us available
Second bedroom it’s a glorified loft or storage cubby with a long ladder to climb up then crawl in god help them if have to go to bathroom during night
Whats the weight of this Iveco van mate ,ive read they are 7 tonne which you cant drive on a normal license ? Thanks .PS we loved your series !. The van is absolutely stunning, your missus is one talented lady !
Is this slightly bigger than a normal luton van, or are you guys just better at designing it? I've seen others that don't fit as much in and look cramped. I find it hard to believe they are the same van as this one, but they all claim to be 3.5 tonne luton vans and have roughly the same measurements.
"A full length mirror so adleast we know we look like shit" this made me chuckle 🤣

Love the roll away toilet. I've always thought that would be a good idea for maximizing space. I'd love to see someone do a roll away incinerator toilet!
That would be awesome, I'd love to see it too
Nice set up! Brave choice to have the laptops right underneath the gas oven!
That roller closet is so smart...great to roll into a space you don't use too often or fill up with things.
Too too adorable and funny. The hobby segment 🤣😂🥰 isn’t that right darling 😇🥰
😍😍😍
You should check the temperature of those devices. That drawer under the oven may get a bit hot, which could cook the batteries
That van looks fantastic
Nice conversion. Exterior looks factory built. Beautiful and functional inside.
Dogs are good people.
Love the fact that you have a separate space for shoes which can get in the way otherwise.
I really appreciate the dogs you have great box truck
Absolutely brilliant job, guys.
Last year I’ve got exactly the same van and soon I’ll start my rebuild journey with it as well!
These videos will be and are definitely priceless!🤍
Thanks so much ! Glad you found them useful :)
I watch alot of van builds on RUclips, and I must say your Luton is by far the best I have seen. Well done and God Bless
Brilliant video from you both, well edited and well presented and explained simply too. Great build and layout for your needs. Congratulations
Thanks so much Carl 😁
Lots of great design ideas, I am now wavering between LWB van and a Pantech like this.
The extra space is great 👏
13:15 the dogs like WTF where am I? Whats going on here!!!! For the LOVE OF GOD and EVERYTHING HOLY

One of the nicest and neatest builds I have seen. And I have seen many..great job
I've watched a TON of these van life videos and I have to say, I absolutely love your toilet solution (roll-away, shower access). Absolutely the way I want mine if I ever do this. Thanks for sharing! :)
Love this build! The U-shaped sofa/dining/bed conversion is awesome! Your pups are adorable too! 🥰
not me🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Really lovely build!! Thanks for sharing.
First class, nicely done, Van and video. Raised spaces is so logical when you've got that height to play with.

Lol the roll away toilet goes under bros wardrobe. He goes out smelling like a compost toilet
You guys have the exact same design like me...which I have on my vision board...am amazed. Superb job♥️♥️🔥🔥
If you ever look to sell, first dibs! What a van.
5:20 lol Love it

Not so true. You just have to buy the right box truck

Amazing design seating area. Best I’ve seen. Think I’ll be using that layout on mine. Thanks ✌🏻👌

Great to see your van from the inside, love the layout. We were actually parked behind you in Snowdonia national park recently.
Aw that's amazing. Hopefully our paths cross again 😁👏
Good job! Thanks for sharing
Well done found you from techno barbarian and his box build 👏 👍
Thank you, and welcome to the channel
Wow been following you since the start an you should both be proud
Thanks so much Kieron 😁
Love your eye for detail and the cosy feel to it!
I love this build. I'm in a schoolie but I wanted a box truck at 1st.
Maybe my favorite box van build..great job. Whats your fuel economy ? Just read from the website the fuel economy is insane !! Thanks for the post !!!

Absolutely love your build! Between you and Alice and Kieran's builds, we're now going the Luton! Nice one!!
Thanks so much! Lutons are great. The space is unbelievable 👏
What great van and i love your dogs you've done a great job converting the van. Scotty
Absolutely love your build… happy travels… love the doggies too🥰🥰
She’s amazing. Just wish I had the time and money to build something similar. Not bitter though. You’ve worked hard and now it’s time to play hard lol.
Thanks so much! Crazy that she's finally done ( well .. I'm sure we will find things to tinker with and fix ) 100% looking forwards to getting out and making some memories 👏👏
Everything is functional but you can button it up.
You won yourself an Easterner
The build is awesome, the most spacious and well thought design. I appreciate and find very helpful the Amazon links but you need to know that you repeated the link from the inverter again towards the booster. Thanks for sharing the experience!
Wow you guys nailed the design. Really well done especially the lounge area that’s quite unique

What is it?
I hope you weigh occasionally that boot and water looks like 1/2 your load if not more, stay safe and legal

Amazing conversion 😃
Great job...
Why not put a shelf above the dog bed and electric controls? You could use it as a shelf or put another dog bed on it that can be accessed via the couch.
Top work guys! Just found you and subscribed! I do love an Iveco. Lovely van!! I'm starting a luton conversion, hence why I've found you 😆
Wow love it Nice I like the couch
Amazing !🎉
Wow! Nice!
Hi, just found your channel from watching Kieron and Alice..fabulous van build, looking forward to following your adventures
Welcome to the channel 👋👋👋👋
Wondering how much that van weighs!! Awesome though
hi very interesting blog hope your doing well i was wonderig where you got the rubber for the pass-through r you still on the road
OMG in another life the two of you would be my best friend! Lol seriously I say that because of just how down to earth you two are and funny really really funny! In love with your fur babies and what a fantastic home you have, you guys should be so proud of what you created.

Really nice build…🌀💚🌀
Woooww! Definitely a few things in here I haven't thought of yet for my future build, I'm impressed. The van is 3.5T right? I may be getting the same one
this is an amazing conversion, I'm curious what is the GVW and weight of a vehicle?
Fantastic conversion, I'm going to be looking to do the same in the next year to a luton van with long wheel base like yours and watching your tour has really settled my mind that there is plenty of space 👍
So much space.. heigh is the only issue for us, we are taller than most mother homes 😅 but inside we have 2.3m so there are Luton's smaller than us available
why?
Second bedroom it’s a glorified loft or storage cubby with a long ladder to climb up then crawl in god help them if have to go to bathroom during night
The Horsebox Window Tip is super usefull! Which brand is it?
Looks really nice good job do you know what your van Weighted empty and what it weighted when finished and what sort of mileage do you get thanks
love it
Loved this ❤️❤️
Whats the weight of this Iveco van mate ,ive read they are 7 tonne which you cant drive on a normal license ? Thanks .PS we loved your series !. The van is absolutely stunning, your missus is one talented lady !
Is the box on the inside without the sleeping beds 6 meters ? Looking for a van myself, just curious!
Is this slightly bigger than a normal luton van, or are you guys just better at designing it? I've seen others that don't fit as much in and look cramped. I find it hard to believe they are the same van as this one, but they all claim to be 3.5 tonne luton vans and have roughly the same measurements.
Just remember if it's lighter inside the van than outside your privacy film effectively reverses.
Good set up can u tell me what your van does mpg thank u
Luton vans are so cheap in UK in Australia Iveco Daily are crazily expensive .....
Great conversion though
A diesel or petrol engine? All spaces built in more interesting ways than manufactured ways. What mileage do you get?
pc and hdd next under the oven ? how is that when the oven is on ?
Keeping electronics below heat is nuts
hi heather, have you ever had your van on the weight bridge ? and what did it come in as ?
