Nice build, I use my stage 2 fiesta ST 180 for camping trips, Use roof top tent, power wise I use an eco flow, I wouldnt mind doing what youve done in the back for cooking etc, look forward to next video.
HOW did I miss this until now?! Our cars are almost twins! I had created a video in 2019 to introduce my plan to try a camper build in my GTI, starting with a "rear seat delete" that features flip-up doors. However, I was distracted in 2020 (weren't we ALL?) and went a different direction. Still, much of what I've done to my car is overland-inspired, including my 1280-Wh lithium battery, the fridge, and cargo options. As a result, I coined the term "microlander" with plan to do some camping at some point. I never did camp IN my car, BUT I could easily slap-on a rear "car tent" at the hatch and use the extra utility of my "micro utility vehicle." I need to update my RUclips content, especially in light of my recent cargo modifications. My IG has the most recent photos, if you're interested. I hope to see you share more content in the future. Take Care! -Scott
@@saidassimkus1133 - I think the only way it will work is if you remove the front seat and put some sort of raised surface on the front floor. Then you'll have to contend with an airbag light. Good Luck!
Wow, I love what you did here! Right now, I'm rolling with a no-build MK7 VW GTI car camper conversion. I hope you do follow up with those build videos. A retrospective would also be interesting. What would you do differently, now that you've had this build for a while? You've inspired to do something similar!
Well done. Blessed algo. How tall are you? I’ve tried sleeping in my gti, it was… unpleasant. Only way I could do it is if I took the front passenger seat out.
Hello it looks nice u or someone did smart work with that small space u got just wondering how tall are you i cant decide which i should go for octavia or golf7 hatcback golf 7 def looks nicer and more comfy im 6ft0
VW GOLF is a pretty fuel efficient car, despite having 220HP on a 2.0 turbo diesel engine. It's also one of the most feature packed and modern looking cars you can get, especially the new Golf 8 with full interior/exterior max trim adds. I drive pretty dynamic, I don't go crazy but I don't cheap out on pressing that gas peddle either and I'm getting around 6.8L/100km while city driving and when driving mostly on fast roadways and highways, I can get it down to as low as 5.1L/100km. I'm pretty sure someone who drives more fuel efficiently than me has even better fuel economy. However, if you like to press that gas peddle a lot, then your fuel economy can go up to 8-9L per 100km while city driving... All in all, it's a pretty amazing car and has pretty stylish interior design, on par with Audi, Mercedes and BMW. Also, GOLF is supposed to be a compact hatchback of some sort but the newer models are actually huge, despite looking quite small. Gold 7 and 8 are almost 4,300mm in length and the size of the interior is roomier than that of a BMW 3 series, despite the Golf having almost 300mm shorter exterior length. Golf is a pretty amazing car oh and also to top it all off, they are also dirt cheap to maintain and repair.
Sick build. Thinking about doing something like this with my mk8
the extra coolant is relatable lmaoo. cool setup
You somehow made it into my feed while having only 9 subs. Now 10!looking forward to watching the adventure.
Pretty impressive! Seems like you have things more dialed in than people with big expensive builds.
what a unique build, its insane. great job
Nice simple build!
Great build

This is insane, subbed!
How did I end up with this? I have a Golf R and was thinking of selling to get a CRV to do stuff like this. Is this a sign? Nice build.
Definitely a sign. Golf r build would go crazy

Sick build. I wanna do the exact one :)
Nice! It all looks really well done and well thought out. I'd love to do another camping build in my Jeep. Are you in Colorado?
Thanks! Jeep’s are definitely the go to platform. And this was filmed that in southern Utah

With the EQT tune, Highway drives I can get to 32 MPG. City driving around 24 MPG. And when I want to go for a little spirited drives, down to 18 MPG.
How long is the bed?
Mine is about 5'10"
