In this weeks video, I experience for my first time what it's like to stay inside a stealthy, luxury converted mercedes sprinter van which has a unique camouflage style wrap on the outside and a super king size bed on the inside.

Camouflaged only if you park next to a ronseal woodstain fence.
Haha! 😂
Lol.
TBF it wood probably blend into a woodland fairly well ha ha 😅😅
Does exactly what it says on the tin
Yea. I watched the first 10 mins and couldn’t see the van!
Will, can I suggest a video idea. Interviewing all the owners of the campers/vehicles you've camped in. The main question is "What's the story behind this camper / vehicle setup"
It could be a compilation video with clips from different interviews
Good fun ! …. Hardly stealth, stands out like a sore thumb( especially with wood burner burning 😂 we had same vehicle, but with motorhome conversion. £50k second/ third hand. Hated it, tooooo narrow, like living on a very narrow tube train….. and yep! Had to make up beds 😩
Beautiful beast to drive tho… just dreaded parking up 😂😂😂x 6 months later, sold. Got a chubbier one now…. And £20k back in bank ! It’s a very personal picky thing finding ‘the right ‘ONE’ ❤️😂 love the series ! Good work! Xxx
I'm in love with this van 😍 only would have the fire facing the bed , black out blinds and a TV DVD stereo of course
I get the whole vibe of log cabin, not a fan of outside but the inside is beyond gorgeous!! What an incredible van setup, the owner must have a lovely adventure camping out. Great video Will.
The owner has a wrapping business. Couldn’t not wrap his van like a log cabin!
Well that makes sense now!
Thank you so much for your comments! :) We are so proud to have Splinter on our fleet!
Once again an awesome video Will. I’m love the rustic look of the outside of the van and lovely cabin look inside along with a log wood burner.
A real home on wheels!
Ooh whooow! What a great camper! But I have to say, a 7meter Sprinter is my absolutely dream van! Thank you Will for sharing this Sprinter adventure 😊 Greetz from Austria ❤
I’d definitely recommend! 🫶
I maybe misunderstood when you first announced the change of direction to the channel, but I was under the impression you were going to meet the people that own these different campervans, interview them, travel round with them etc
Still loving these videos, but I think that would be a cool addition to meet the people who own the vehicles/set-ups
Yeah I thought he’d speak to the owners a bit more
That could make the videos more interesting, I'm sure that will happen more as time goes on
Thanks for the feedback Mark, I have asked a few of the owners but not everyone is willing to be on camera which is absolutely fine but going forward my intention is 100% get the owners involved
@@WillsWhereabouts that's great to hear, thanks for your response :)
Love the paint job on the van… another awesome vid thank you 👌🏽
The content quality is amazing I love these Will… can’t wait for next week…
Thanks very much!
@@WillsWhereabouts you’ve come so far Will.. I remember fish and chips in the galaxy… all those years ago
Oh Will, that has to be the best setup you`ve tried out to date. Just love the wrap ! 😃😃
That camper is epic! The design and detail is very well done! Another great video 👍
Thanks! 🙏🏻
DITTO...WOW....amazing rental! (I can't believe they rented to you...JUST KIDDING!) So yeah, I think I would go with white washed wood vs that heavy brown.....way to dark and you are right about the lighting being a bit lacking. Really enjoying this series Will!
Nothing compares to Mary 🤙
Just found your channel love the realness and not the normal RUclips BS of everything is amazing or just for clicks, just binge watching you previous video, found myself having fajitas for tea tonight 🤔
really nice pick. those micro wood stove warmers are cool. I've heard that if you want the wood to burn throughout the whole night, you need to stuff it full of wood and limit the oxygen intake and cause a slow controlled burn by closing air intake vents to some 80%-90% shut position.
Thanks for the tip
The vans just keep getting better and better, Will. How gorgeous is that sprinter-inside and out and its clear that van is certainly a labour of love. Gotta say, these videos are looking like a labour of love for you also. You absolutely light up with every video now and seem very happy with this change in direction. It certainly shows in the videos in the more doccu-travel style of the new format. Video quality is great as is the content. I'm loving each new video and the vibe. Bessy regs-Kenny
Wow that thing is bloody massive!! There's that much space that you could literally turn it into a nightclub! 🤣 The exterior wrap is pretty cool, as well as the rustic interior and I do love me a wood burner. I swear I saw you shed a tear when you mentioned the Ford Galaxy 😂 Oh the memories! Great stuff Will!
Haha
Have to say, fella, you're a natural TV presenter. Absolutely hilarious! Cracking van, too - though I'd rather have a diesel heater that you have some control over than a wood burner. Great video. 👍
I like it, love the thought gone into it. Not sure about the colour wrapping but it’s certainly different. 😊👍😊
looks great Will nice log cabin effect...just looks cozy and relaxing. loving the series mate and its cool how many ideas people can come up with to convert plain panel vans to cozy live able homes. Awsome video like always and cant wait for the ones to come!
Love the gray water tank at the end lol ^^
Not a fan of the wrap, but that is just personal preference. The van itself is awesome and yet again, another brilliant video.Thanks Will.
I enjoyed the video. The Mercedes Sprinter is a nice van. Who knew it had a wood stove. The bed is nice and big. I had to laugh about you leaving the lighter on the wood stove only because, that is something I would do. Thanks for sharing Will.
Thanks for that one Will. Isn't it incredible the variations that are available for life on the road.
That’s what I’m finding out!
another great video Will. What a great looking van.
That was awesome. I belive the light supposed to mimic wood cabin with candles sort of a thing. That’s why it was dimmed and yellowiesh light. But I loved it personally. Amazing attention to detail in that monster as well as solidly build.
It’s a beautiful van that’s for sure
Gorgeous, gorgeous van, inside and out!! I even love the wrap outside.
Awesome mate. Love this new style of videos you’ve been doing. Every video is fresh and interesting.
Thanks so much
Brilliant 👏 Really love this format of trying out other vans 😊 Great video
Cheers Ian, it’s been great fun
Nice to see you visiting the Midsomer Norton & Westfield area
wow u r living with my dream lots of love from Nepal
I think that van is a 'thing of beauty' - but perhaps it might benefit from a diesel heater (and at least one packet of noodles...). Someone did a great job designing and building it.
8:36 that velociraptor impression though bro
loved the vid man nice one
Love ya videos will 🤝🏻 keep them coming mate and enjoy your life 👍🏻
another great vlog Will............ do love you doing these......... but honestly I love it when you are just doing it yourself, love watching you travelling the uk parking anywhere....
Absolutely loving this series man ,
Interesting van Will,the bed was a great plus. Delighted you enjoyed the experience.
Liking the new format of videos exploring & showing different range of vehicles
Another brilliant Top Gear Killer episode Will. That van looks more cozy and better than my home.
It was v comfy!
Great video, love the layout of this van although I think it is too big (our Renault Master is 5,5m, with a 2m 'non-fixed' bed, during the day we still have 2m of space to move around) not such a fan of the dark wood interieur and also you perfectly demonstrated why wood burners ar no good at all (next to the fact they are verry polluting too) we love our Truma gas heater, you just turn it on and set the thermostat to the desired temp and you will never be cold.
Looks about the same size of my semi converted Bedford CF. It had been a London 11 seater ex-ambulance. People would ask me what it was like, I'll say that I get in the front walk round a bit, Then walk into the back.
Willmotts transport on one side, Howdens on the other. Good old Westfield industrial estate just outside Bath. One of my local park ups. :)
Not sure I'd call it 'camo' as it looks more like a log cabin on wheels (which I'm not a fan of). The inside, however, is simply stunning - very well appointed and thought out. But then, you're renting a Mercedes, so you should expect high end. Love the wood stove, though then of course you'd need to cart firewood around with you all the time. Great video, as always 😀😀
Really enjoying this series. Looking forward to what you end up in next week.
However, when you was praising this van at the start, I was thinking about poor Mary 😂
Haha she’s doing ok
That table gave me an idea for my build the idea to not have a fixed bed is perfect for me
Thanks for sharing Will I really enjoyed it. Mucho Love From Your Friend In Michigan
Thanks Tammy
thats a bloody awesome van, thanks for sharing
That is a beautiful van. Making lemonade outta lemons that meal still looked awesome. Keep up the neat vids
Thanks very much!
Bin nice to see all lights off with just the log burner on,.
Splinter. Very good!
Love the outside of that van!
Forget the haters Will. I’m loving your new video series. Gotta change it up sometimes. Keep it up!
100% thanks
Love the inside of the van it's like a pirate ship.
Wow will beautiful van lovely comfort asome space for you happy easter 🐣 🙂🙂🙂🙂🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🤗🤗🤗🤗
If they make a version for the US market, I would have one. Very sharp looking vehicle.
What a nice set up, the space is great, but id hate to drive it down some of the UK country roads, because of the length. Maybe an idea for your van to re design the bed. Love the series by the way.
Thanks very much, it’s great to see different layouts that’s for sure
once again great video love the new content
Cheers Dylan
Hi Will, I’m really enjoying your videos, camping in different vehicles, it keeps us in suspense of what’s next, lovely van, but I agree about the lighting, very dark wood, needs lower lighting. Thank you and take care. Xx🤟🏼✌️🫠
Thanks as always Catherine
@@WillsWhereabouts your welcome xx
Enjoy your real world reviews. Please try and do one on the Hymer Venture S when it becomes available
How to camouflage a van so that it is anything but stealth 😂
Plus 4 indows might give away the RV character 😂
That Van looks mint the type of Van i would want plenty of room and a good ride quality, keep the vids coming Will.
Definitely worth having!
Great ideas with the new vids. Keeping it fresh. Log burner is the way to go.
💯
Great video again love the new direction. A bit longer video would be great! Great van. How do log burners compare to your diesel heater? You didn’t test the shower in the van! Keep the new vids coming. Looking forward to seeing what set up you pick for next week.
Thanks Gemma, longer videos to come for sure so thanks for the feedback
Wow what an interior 😮 Epic !
So nice isn’t it
I really like the wood in yhis camper van
Great video Will and very well done on the new direction. I do wonder about the wear and tear of the fixtures and fittings from being bumped about on the roads.
Thanks very much Steward!
Great video mate, love the van so much room and rustic looking, the wood burner awesome!!
Like a living room!
Fancy coming to midsomer Norton and not saying hi. Awesome videos mate
😂😂
Love these new videos Will 🎉 brilliant such a good way to see different ideas 💡
Thanks Gemma, glad you’re enjoying them
Bobby dazzler of a video, mate. That van looks incredible.
It’s a beauty!
@@WillsWhereabouts the layout is incredible, and to have a full size shower cubicle in there too is different class.
New drinking game, every time will says bloody 😂
Haha! Glad I’m so predictable 😂
Omg, I just started the video, and I had to say…WoW! It looks epic
Glad you like it!
@@WillsWhereabouts love it, best van ever
What a fabulous van ❤
It needs a diesel heater, an oven, a TV, and as you said, more lighting. But it's nice.
Another very funny video - well done Will, keep up the good work. By the way, I loved the heart shaped chopping board
Great vids, showing other types of camper. Amazing how much difference a little bit more length makes. 😏
Honestly!
Nice video to watch, not sure at all about wrap on Van! Inside does look nice, but does seem a tad dark! 😀
I definitely found it a bit dark but it was lovely
Love the inside not a fan of the outside, shame they didn't throw a diesel heater in there as well. You should have definitely tested out the shower to see how the temperature of the water was. How much would a week be to rent. Great video as always see you next week 🤗
Another banger, this series is seriously genius
Glad you’re enjoying it
Gorgeous van, loving this series!
It’s great to see how other people do things 👍 Seems borderline style/theme over function to me & stealth it certainly ain’t 😅 If I had a van that long it’d definitely have a fixed bed... Still, I guess my boring white L2H2 Ducato could be classed as a mobile washing machine 🤣
Brilliant Will . What a van 😊💯👍
Thanks Andrew
These videos are brilliant mate. 👏
nice van, Im looking into going back to Van Life. Also, you look a little bit like Luke Evans.
Very nice van but I like yours better. The large fixed mattress is hard to do without.
Nice van. I'm wanting to get this for the late days at work
Sounds like a good idea!
I don't know if you noticed it's a wood effect Sprinter called Splinter, brilliant naming.
It really is
again great quality of footage and sound 👌 ive saw the sprinter has the bf k02 tire on it ? did it feel good to drive ? a little talk about suspension/tires on the different rigs would be cool ❤❤
Definitely one of the nicest to drive!
That parkup looks like Westfield trading estate and Somervale School car park?
Nicely trimmed van, Sprinters are a joy to drive, wonder if changes to Mary will happen after this series. Only complaint is the background music, which I feel detracts from the content
Thanks for the feedback Russel and certainly lots of ideas for a future van build
I love the wrap
I want to live in this van! It’s dark and a bit narrow and I can poop and have a shower at the same time. Absolutely love it!
Have you been drinking Guinness Draught? …..because that’s what it does to me too
Will, you will find those lighters in Tesco
😂😂
I see u took my advice on back to the log burners for a bit yet
Oh dear - no spray, no lay - classic! Healthy stir fry boy!
Another fantastic video!.
Glad you like it! 🤙
What a stunning van!
As you said, it could do with some better lighting but it's a beautiful interior.
Nice video will 😊
Thanks Gavin
Love this series, Will. The production values have increased which is fantastic - well done to your new 'team'. I'd prefer a bit more detail on the reviews, mind. We didn't get to see the electric setup or water, for example, which I think folk would find interesting (as long as you can inject a bit of humour as technical reviews can sometimes be dry and boring).
Thanks for the feedback!
Wow that’s gorgeous!
It really is
