  • We're Christie and Dom, two twenty something's from London. We quit our jobs and bought a van which we now live in full time whilst we travel Europe.
    Our van is called Magnus the Mercedes. We have visited 6 countries in him so so far.
    We hope you enjoy watching our van tour, we show around the whole van - let us know what your favourite part is!

    Jesteście dla mnie inspiracją. Wspaniałe zaplanowane i zbudowane wnętrze, a samochód to doskonały wybór. Jeździłem długi czas takim Mercedesem jest niezwykle wytrzymały i bardzo wygodny. Pozdrawiam.

      Święta racja.Mam taki autobusik.Do niedawna 7 dni w tygodniu pracował.Przez 5 lat miałem tylko trzy awarie w trasie.Dwa razy wysprzęglik, raz skrzynia się rozsypała.Przebieg roczny około 80000 km.Reszta to eksploatacja typu klocki ,olej.Teraz stoi jako rezerwowy.

    Nice van. My wife and I did about 12 years on the road, working a little as we went along, fantastic way of life. Very friendly people generally. Travelled most of Europe plus a year in Canada, USA with a dip down into Mexico. We wish you well.

    This is the type of van that I definitely would prefer over the classic white vans. Roomier while looking low-key. Wish you two the best on your adventure.

    I always find myself coming back to your van tour. I just really, really like it, and am a fan of Varios. Also love how you got the 612D 5 cylinder.
    Thanks for your video.

    I am thinking about buying a simular van. Are you pleased with it mechanically? Any info to share about fuel consumption and top end speed? Super conversion!

  • @mixizettpitelka

    Ein schönes Fahrzeug. Alles gelungen. Leider mit einem problematischen Motor. Mercedes hatte damals versucht den Hubraum des 612 D auf unter 3 Liter zu drücken und gleichzeitig mit Drehzahlerhöhung, Turbo und Ladeluftkühler wieder zu pimpen. Die ersten Versuche mit Magermotoren. Das Gewicht erforderte allerdings den ausgereiften 4,3 Liter LKW Motor mit niedriger Drehzahl und richtig Kraft.

    You don't want to have a knives in that position if you have accident and hit something hard, those knives would be catapulted forward to the copilot. As well as any other object that might become flying asteroid in the case of accident.
    Otherwise beautiful cruisehome.

    Hi guys, please help with my questions. 1) Is your van the extended high roof? 2) What is the height from floor to ceiling?
    I am thinking about getting the Mercedes 310 D and need to know if I need the high roof? Thanks. Your Bus looks great. Be safe.

  • @thevanman4498
    @thevanman4498 4 года назад

    There is always improvements to be made no matter how nice a conversion is. I would change the rear storage into a large full extension drawer to easily access things ahead of the bikes. Otherwise this van is looks great. VM

      after a certain size of vehicle you don't need an extra licence, because the bigger the vehicle the less probably you get pulled over anyway
