    Now I’m a larger person I would find your Buzz claustrophobic for two people think it’s just not practical the guys are making a superb job however but practically it’s a non starter

    Hi Steve & Lyndsey
    Just wanted to say a big Thank you for your message yesterday which my son-in-law (Mark) got you to send over. Yes, huge fans of your channel and was only watching the ID Buzz renovation a couple hours earlier yesterday before you sent over the message. Keep on entertaining !! Thanks Patrick & Lynda

    Gorgeous colours and finish. 😊

    It’s looking very smart & to fit all that in a small space. Knights deserve a well done for taking the time & effort to design it all though not many places would take the time to video it all. Hopefully it brings them more business from this van. Can’t wait to see Buzz in action when completed 👍🏻

    Looks good, also think about a tent like extension clipping onto top of extended roof along the back going down outside open back doors. So if you really have bad weather it gives you a little more room at back. Can be made of the clear stuff between doors for light & full length zipper one side.

    Great build and design to cope with a very challenging vehicle to adapt. However, am I missing something? Why do you need a leisure battery for an EV? I know running the electrics off the vehicle drive battery would drain a little from it, but surely the difference on what I think is an 82kw battery is minimal?
    Maybe the specifications from VW mean you have to have a separate hab battery?

    • @RoamingRadfords
      @RoamingRadfords  Месяц назад +1

      Thanks. Yes you can only draw a 30 amp supply from the vehicle battery so we have the Clayton Power unit to run everything and we can now charge the Clayton from the vehicle battery at 30 amps when the ignition is switched on.

  • @Gmh6477
    @Gmh6477 Месяц назад

    Any reason you didn’t just buy the MpV version considering all the extra you’ve had to spend fitting parts from it, plus they have a bit better spec and extra sound deadening already fitted.

    • @RoamingRadfords
      @RoamingRadfords  Месяц назад +1

      We would have had to spend a lot more money to just rip everything out and strip it back to throw it all away. What a waste that would have been. This has been custom built from the ground up as a proper micro camper, just as we wanted it.

    Have you been in contact with anyone else who have an IDBUZZ around Europe and UK who have already made changes to accommodate a ‘small’ living space
    I’ve not seen an id buzz where I live which is NE Birmingham
    It’s looks so tight talking mm’s

      No it’s not for the kids. As we’ve said in previous videos, it’s a 2nd car that we can also use as an occasional campervan without the kids, although George is excited to sleep up in the pop top.

    It's all about people's own taste .but after seeing what you have been driving for years you're going to struggle I mean said it before if you don't have space it's not enjoyable in fact you probably after 2 months be thinking of selling it . But like I said it's all about our own taste it's not for everyone

      David you’ve clearly missed the previous videos about our Buzz where we’ve explained that this isn’t to replace our family motorhome, but it’s simply a second car and occasional campervan for us to use.

    I think the idea is there, but practically no. The vehicle is just too small. It seems like you are in too far and are going to fit this square peg in a round hole no matter what. It does look amazing though. Ok for an overnighter, as long as your not travelling too far. Not being negative just realistic.
