Join me this week as I show you this tiny Korean car which has been completely transformed into the most incredible and basic tiny camper van and adventure wagon on wheels.
I'll also give you a full tour of the van and take you through every step of the journey as I go car camping in this amazing van conversion.

Just a thought
Why not combine van review with campsite review would open up a whole new ballgame.
Love the channel 👍
Great idea Alan
Wicked idea 🔥
Yes!
Well apologies I had no idea that Hyundai was Korean and in fact not Japanese! You learn something new everyday. I don’t know how a chicken Chow Mein turned into a Chicken Katsu but hey ho 😂. Really hope you’re all enjoying these new vehicles every week, I know I really loved being back in a smaller set up!
Not the first time you’ve straddled a pole will 😂 jokes couldn’t help myself!! Love the vids buddy
Should of took the seat pillows off you would of had more room .
we forgive u for mixing car brands this up XD. love the vids keep them going
Great videos Will ,than k you
I’m from derby, there’s loads of spots you missed out on
1:13 wherever you go whatever you do there will always, always be THAT person !
Always
I love the idea of these tiny campers! Some of them are so well made with very clever designs that maximise the use of the space
This one was amazing
Every so often it’s good to switch things up! These vlogs are so useful to me, from the type of camper van and what I want from it and hope for a season 2 very soon. Your hard work and the time that goes into editing and filming is much appreciated ❤🙂
Thanks so much Gill, it’s been a lot of fun
Love this series and the background videos to those cars. you seem better in any way, healthier and happier. hope to see some stealth camping in your car again some time.
Thanks very much Andre
When you get someone on private property or somewhere they shouldn't be the standard rule is give them the benefit of the doubt, then kick them out. 17 years of security taught me that.
I’m genuinely impressed with this micro camper. What a fantastic design. 😊👍😊
It’s bloody brilliant 😊
That's a proper smart little minivan that, very good layout and super cozy.
It was so well done
The girlfriend and I are loving watching this series. Only just found you so binge watched. So many of the vehicles that you’ve chosen we of interest: we’ve thought of converting a Hyundai i800; I used to have a 68 vw and the engine cutting out is exactly what owning one is like; we saw that folding caravan at a campsite and wondered what it was like; thinking of a roof tent…all of it. All great stuff. There are hundreds of self build campers cooking a meal stealth camping channel but what you’re doing here is unique and we love it. Hope you can keep this going.
Totally love this car!! It's so cute and compact but has enough room to be comfortable. Love this channel ☺️
Another great adventure Will, keep them coming! Really enjoying the series!
Will do matey
I just love your vids will… never a dull moment 😂 this defo looked cosy … can’t wait for the next episode 💙
Thanks Sarah
Keep them coming will, loving the series ❤
Will do 😊
Cheers Will, hope you are having a nice weekend....thanks for posting another vlog!
Cheers Jon!
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 Looking forward to the next one and future seasons🎉🎉 love them!
Thanks Joanna
Amazing little van build. I have a Honda Elysion which is a similar size. Also did the inside myself with a kitchen, dining table and double bed. Some faff involved but shows what you can squeeze into that space. Kudos to the owner!
They had done an incredible job that’s for sure
Love these videos mate. And love seeing your subs going up
Thanks very much
Another episode smashed out of the park Will, keep it up, can't wait for the next one....
Cheers matey
I love these new adventure videos really good and different every time amazing vlogs every time!!!
Thanks so much Natalie
Top video as always keep up the great videos look forward to them every week.
Thanks Andrew
Funny it's one of the smaller campers you've had in the series but, had a harder time finding a camp spot lol That aubergine tho 🤣😁
I know that’s what I was thinking 😂
what a cracking job, must be so much fun getting to take out everyone's campers that they have put their heart n sole's into building, you fitted in the back quite well!!!! 🤣🤣
Haha it’s been great fun
South Korean car company (Hyundai). Great video per usual.
Thanks ray
heyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy will another great video and wow yes that micro camper was the bizz!!!....you looked so at home in it aswell!!!...look forward to the next one :)
Cheers Graham, it was great to be back in a camper like that
Another beauty,lovely and compact. I did kaugh when you said you wanted to work on a farm,and I thought, I bet someone will invite you to do so,I for sure will be watching for that. A super van,my kind of van.Bummer being kicked out, but at least found somewhere,and had a super sleep. Loving the series.
Thanks Lorraine! Can’t wait to be working on that farm haha
@@WillsWhereabouts oh if you over here in Ireland,I'd have you up my allotment,and tie you in with friends of mine on the farm,I have not smdoubt a few squeaks from you,but would be hands first in getting down and dirty working hard.
I can not stop laughing. It went toooo smoooth last week. Soooo intrest had to be paid. 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 I can't wait for next weeks smaller camper. 😊 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
😂😅 I’m in credit now surely
Will, it’s nice to see you so happy in these videos. Also yes I’m liking the new way you’ve got your camera man Ben and doing these videos with a twist. Just keep going. Regards to Ben. Great camera work. I’m enjoying. :-)
Thanks so much Patrick
Love this series!
Thanks Doreen
Good video, enough laughter as usual stay blessed bro!!!
😊😊
Love this videos, been watching from the Galaxy days and can tell it brought back good memories! You are doing an amazing job Will, keep it up!
Thanks very much mate 😊
Woohoo shout out to Derby from a local resident!!
It’s a beautiful place, just a nightmare to park anywhere hah
I have one of these, kitchen unit, double bed and kept centre seats for the kids.
Hard top roof tent, comfortably sleeps 2 adults and 2 kids, we love it👍
We do too. Double tri-fold bed. Still have the back row of seats. Kitchen out the back.
Fold up the bed and we can have five people in the van. We have travelled 7+ week and various shorter trip. All weathers. It serves us well. Love it.
This is a work colleagues friends van. Looks great.
Another epic and zany video. You're crazy Will, but I so do love these videos. 😊 👍👍
Haha thanks very much Arlene 😊
You're welcome, Will!! ❤️🙂 ❤️
Hi WILL Got to say it has been great fun following you while trying out different camper vans this one is made for people under 5ft tall lol but great fun keep them coming Will most definitely enjoyable thank you so much ,John 🥱🫣👀👀🤠😅😂🤣🥲
Cheers John, glad you enjoyed
Headroom depends on the height of the seating. I am 6 foot and am not as cramped as Will was.
Thank you will
Did you bust another table 🤣🤣, you had me in stitches once again mate 👍👍👍👍👍
Love these dropping on a weekend… so funny but great to see you so happy and passionate buddy…
Thanks matey
Great video Will.
Cheers
Hi Will, that was a cosy camp, a sweet little van, for smaller people I reckon, I’m 5f 8 , it may be to low for me, being that it’s small, it’s probably quite warm, I guess with that type of vehicle, you could park up on the streets. Thanks Will for another awesome video, you seem so happy doing those types of videos. It makes me happy if your happy. 😎🤟🏼✌️. See you on Wednesday. Xxxx
Thanks so much Catherine, appreciate your continued support and comments 😊
I have that same bed/storage/kitchen set up in my VW Caddy Maxi - It’s from VanFurniture UK and it’s really solid, easy build too!
Hah!! You are right in Derby city centre. At least you had Darley Park right next to you.
It was quite a decent spot and the only place we could find
Love these videos. Can tell that youre having fun 😂 Makes me want to get myself a van for full time living but my mrs is having none if it (made worse by the fact that shes the only one with a license 😂 ive brought it up numerous times in the last few years) she's always telling me not to get any ideas when im "caught" watching 😂😂😂
Haha I think you gotta sort your licence out first then you might have a chance at persuading her
Will, it was like watching Gandolf visit Frodo's pad for dinner. Oh, strange place to store an aubergine... Another chuckling video.
😂😂 My favourite moving franchise
13:07 Hayfever flavuring [by sinister at Tescos Now ] perfect for 2023 hahah. hayfever is one of the most confusing effects of tree/flower/grass pollen
still no cure for it for us hayfever suffers.
summer may be sneeze session but not all bad
this series of you testing these quirky campervans are brilliant. You need to be the first one to camp in an all electric VW IDbuzz. i saw that someone has already done a conversion of one in the UK
Thanks, I would absolutely love to get hold of the new VW ID buzz
These are considered weekenders in NZ and the 4wd versions are very popular. There are several companies that specialise in converting them
I bet the 4wd versions are epic
Brilliant!
Thanks Mark
That was amazing wee van will so nice goid fun glad you got a place to park 😂😂😂and a nights sleep ❤❤❤❤❤
Thanks Elizabeth
Loved it ❤
Happy to hear it Stella
Here in NZ they are blocking off all open places to freedom camp (park up). The campervan layout is brilliant
Was you chopping on your knees Will Lol👍😂🤣🤣🤣🤣
Custard doughnuts are lush from Morrisons great video will xx
They’re lovely
This gives me some ideas for my Kia👍😊
100%
Love it, what a cool little camper! Reminds me a bit of Thomas Heaton's camper haha
His van is bloody epic
Not a bad little van, especially if you’re not as tall. Shame about all the blocked off park ups, maybe you could get a small campsite for another one and review that too at the same time.
You’re right on the Morrisons jam doughnuts!
Have a great rest of the week,
David & Rachel 👍
Thanks guys, I think a campsite would have worked well for this video
Being short has benefits. That is like a winnebago to me Will 👍👍👍👍
Haha it really does
Nice video again will 😊😂
Cheers Gavin
Great set up. Love the van/car. I kept shouting to remove the cushions when at the table. The foam looked to be 4 inch depth/thickness and firm so you personally would have gained that behind and beneath at least whilst eating. 😂 I love those pull out kitchens too! Sad that Derbyshire is making it difficult to park up in what is such a beautiful picturesque county. 😢 Looking forward to next video. 😘
It really was a great compact set up! Thanks for watching 😊
Bring it on will
🤙🏼🤙🏼🤙🏼
Love the video next campervan video ben picks the meal ? ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Haha good idea
those walkie talkies hahaha 😂😂👌
😂 bloody awful
@@WillsWhereabouts haha
Top Gear vibes 😂
You should have come to the high peak part of Derbyshire. Loads of park ups.
I’ll have to try this out next time
Can't believe you were two minutes walk from where I live 😂 It's a shame I didn't know, as I could have shown you a few good places to park up.
Hah I’ll save that for next time
Ahahahah the aubergine killed me 😆
Cool. We have a Nissan Elgrand which has an end kitchen with 2 single beds - we also have a driveaway awning for using at campsites. We love it. Loving this series Will x
I bet it’s great for some adventures
As a van guy from Derby I can safely say I’m surprised that you had a good night sleep in that part of town 😂
Hah it was a great sleep I must say
CARRY ON CAMPING starring Sir Norman Wisdom (Will)
What a brilliant series cannot wait for more.
😂 cheers Brian
Love to see you do a 24 hour challenge in your van 😂
That would be too easy
Thanks
Probably have worked out cheaper to had driven straight to a camp site 😂 as always a great vlog 👍🏻
I think you might be right
Haha Darley rowing club i live by there
Loved it! The head room issue bought back memories of my Bongo, the bench seat/bed I had in that was just a *bit* too high for me to sit comfortably.
Sad that it was so difficult for you guys to find a park up though, that does seem to be becoming more of a thing. And I really don't get it in some places because surely having people stay locally over night would mean money being spent there? Very sad.
It does seem to be getting harder and harder that’s for sure
It makes me wonder what some fools might have done that where ever you went had gates. 🤔
@@zianeshkasparen4358 : Grafic description
We have this problem with some areas here in New Zealand. It is because the few who litter, leave faeces uncovered and toilet paper clinging to the shrubbery, spoil it for everyone else.
@@WillsWhereabouts I saw this happening in the US also. Now some rest stops I saw and heard that the maximum resting time is like 3 or 4 hours. Some tell you that you are not allowed to stay overnight, etc
Resons:
People littering
Loudness
Uncaring
Etc. Etc.
@@vanessaouyang1220 😔 I knew it. 🙄
All it needs is a pop top. I have an elgrand and find it too small so will be going mwb van next.
A pop top would be a great addition but I did love the form factor of this
You need to put Ben into last weeks Yellow Bus🤣
😂😂
Great filming its like watching top gear but with a camper !!! Jeramy would have set it on fire by now lol. 🤣 You have also highlighted the problem we now HAVE after covid and thousands of people abusing the free park ups? also trashing the locations the council have now stopped it, and it will never go back to how it was. Its so so saddening. Stay safe see you on the next one
Hah thanks very much Lee! It has been a nightmare and seems to be getting harder to find park ups that’s for sure
This is exactly what I am looking at building for myself. Oh my I'm excited for this one
It’s a great base to start 100%
@@WillsWhereabouts what I learned is I am probably also too tall for a car build this sophisticated, but I'll make something work
Super neat little camper.
Are you going to copy any ideas to put in Mary.
I think I may save it for my next van build
Sainsburys do the best jam doughnuts by far!
I’ll have to give them a try
I've Citroen Grand picasso, fold flat seats, instant bed. 50+ to gallon. Sorted
That’s quality
I thought the Aubergine was a little on the optimistic side.......😂
😂😂😄
Watching your videos makes me glad I'm only 5'8" :)
Love your videos will, we should all do a camp out one night somewhere!
That would be epic
@@WillsWhereabouts You know it call it a yearly get together and build this community and love for what you bring to us! Never wanted to own a camper before your videos
@@BenWildmanTH-camChannel I’ll see what I can do! Would be great to host an event like that
Love your videos joey Essex 2.0
😂 brilliant
Amazing van, but you just can’t beat a T5
I’ll have to try one of those next
9:54 and blue to make the boys go you who.
😂😂
Will's new TH-cam career farmer for the day on different farms around the world or cattle farm in America.
Haha I would absolutely love that
Take the cushion off the couch or sit on the very end where the roof is higher
A camper van not for a tall person and its a van but l do like the conversion very well done
It’s been done so well
Hi will, I'm sorry I didn't read your reply to another message, keep up the great work
Diggin this one - great micro van. Might have to do a similar job on my Honda Stpwgn... Question time - what is the amazing park up app? Thx. Keep these videos coming, so classic 8•)
Hah I would be keen for that! The app is called park4night
How about a bicycle caravan? 😄
That would be epic
Right I'm going to Morrision's ;)
Hah I would
I am only 5'1" so should fit in Will 🤣
Hah you would be fine Gill
Mmmm, Mozzers doughnuts!😋 I lived on those at college, partly because my housemate worked there and was in charge of the reduction stickers! Probably also explains why I'm a fat, diabetic b*****d now! 🤘😂
😂😂 I might not be too far behind you
I hope you pitch these videos to networks like Netflix. I love this series.
Thanks Amy!
This on looks well planned out but reminds me too much of my Vauxhall zafira, I enjoyed it but way too small.
But I’m full time so my comment is to be taken in consideration.
I bet you’ve got a great set up
@@WillsWhereabouts it’s a project in the making.
Right now your videos are making it better because I can see what’s for me and what works.
Thank you so much for this series.
Maybe you can take a look when it’s completed
sorry will but hyundai is korean car brand XD
Out that way.... he was close 😊😊xx
Thanks for letting me know
Japanese Hyundai 😄
