    OMG!!! I have always thought it would be a great idea to lift the solar panels up over all the roof fixtures in order to allow for more solar! You did that! How do you like it?

      Hey! Thanks so much - yep it has been really good, just means we’ve got a little bit more storage room for big things 🤣

    Absolutely love your van, it's practical and I especially like your windows no bugs getting in. It's very smart and practical having a window by the stove. Watching from Melbourne 🇦🇺.

    As a fellow van owner, great job on the conversion. I have 1,200 watts of solar panels, love them.

    Fabulous video , really love your van design. We have just purchased a LWB Sprinter so it's great getting information from people that have been traveling for a while. We're definitely learning as we go. Really enjoy watching your travels each week !

    Love your van. We spotted you guys at the free camp near Bellingen , and you complemented us on our cute dog 🥰. We’ve been following your channel ever since. And if you ever need a dog friendly driveway on the Gold Coast, with access to power and toilet you would be very welcome. Also, would love to know when you put your van on the market.

    • @BrinkandForbes
      @BrinkandForbes  2 месяца назад

      Hahaha thanks for following along guys and the very kind offer - will definitely keep it in mind if we around the GC - will definitely let you know if/when we put the van up for sale 😂😊

    I love your van so much.
    Can I please ask where you got that awesome roof rack from and do you know if they make them for sprinters.

      Hey! Thanks so much - we actually made it ourselves out of 38mm aluminium tube, riveted and bolted together 👌🏼

    This is one of the best designs and builds I've seen, give-up the jewelry business and do van builds. (Can you please build two 4X4D vans😁😁)

    • @BrinkandForbes
      @BrinkandForbes  3 месяца назад

      Hahaha we’ve always talked about building them - maybe when we’re ready to settle down in one place for a bit 😉 thanks for the kind words!

    Hi guys, thanks for a super informative video 🙂I'm about to embark on a van build and am looking for my vehicle at present. I intend to build to habitable over the next 6 months then add as I earn whilst living in the van. Would you know how insurance would be approached with modifications gradually being added? At what point would it need to be certified and what inclusions are required for certification? Thanks!

    Would u change the layout of your new van?

    • @BrinkandForbes
      @BrinkandForbes  25 дней назад

      Hi, honestly for us this layout has been perfect - we might tweak some of the dimensions abit, ie, make the shower slightly skinnier but overall the layout has been exactly what we needed.
