So glad I found your video tonight, I have been missing my dear friends from England who passed years ago but I can tell you for a Yank I can make the best cup of tea, roast beef with scones anyone ever had, your grilled cheese was just perfect and your little car camp was so much better than sleeping on the ground, breakfast looks fabulous as well. Thinking of my Dear friends Fred and Mary and Father Byron, the best friends from England anyone ever had.
Funnily enough, I have a 2008 Smart and I used to go camping with a tiny two (one) man tent. Got tired of getting terrible cramps getting changed in the tent so I bought a Eurohike Rydal 500 this year. It is a bit big and there's now no way to have a passenger if you're taking everything with you (in fact the tent is best strapped into the passenger seat!), but yes, it turns out the tent is easily bigger than the car and with a slight change to the front you could just drive it straight in.
I really love the thought and detail to put into getting the perfect angle and shots. The embers, the stack of logs, the sound of rain, it all adds to the asmr quality in your videos. Applause.
Peewee599 Yes it does! There's only one exemption though... the archetypal English chip butty can't be made properly with a diagonally cut slice of bread😂
@@Smeegheed1963or, my guilty pleasure, a fried egg butty with HP sauce, that I have to cut into 4 squares as it’s so messy and the egg is constantly trying to escape!
I noticed that you usually pitch your awnings flat and when it rains, you get drips and pooling near the shelter. If you pitch it sloped downward from the door, with one corner slightly lower than the other, you won't have any problems with drainage. Thanks for another great video. You're always fun. Stay frosty
Das ist kein Camping, das ist Tetris auf Profi-Niveau! 😄 Respekt, wie Du es schaffst, in der kleinsten Hütte der Welt so viel Gemütlichkeit reinzupacken - und das bei Regen! 🌧🔥
That car looks like it should have a key in the top of it! But very clever to show what you can do with a small space and a bit of thought. Maybe you could refine it a bit and then do a couple of short road trips to show people how versatile it could be and encourage people to get out and about on a budget. Someone mentioned those 3x3 gazebos - if you had one of those at a camp ground you could set up and then just drive in and out for day trips!
Always enjoyed your videos Andy but I've just entered the modern world and bought a Smart TV, so have gone from watching on a 5 and a half inch mobile phone screen to a 55 inch screen! Just amazing.
Andy, If you ever get stuck like that again let the tyre pressures down (driven wheels only) to around 5 psi. You won't believe what you can get out of if you do. An almost flat tyre gives a much bigger footprint and really improves grip. Just be sure you have a pump with you.
I think a raffle is a great idea! Another top video. Super snug camping set up, beautiful surroundings, nice bit o' scran, beer, hot chocolate and an atmospheric fire; what's not to enjoy!?!
lol , we've had a smart in the family for about 10 years , i use it , wife uses it & both kids do , so handy for scooting around town / popping to the shop .. never thought of using it as a camper
Mate..... love everyone of your videos 😉 top bloke and can tell you love everything you do. Got me through some hard times a while back. Keep up the good work. I'm always looking forward to the next one. Take it easy Andy 👍
That was an excellent video. It demonstrates that you don't have to spend a ton of money to have an enjoyable camping experience. A little planning goes a long way. Well done, Andy.
I love Smart cars! They're just so tiny and charismatic. Whenever I see one going down the road it looks like it's trying really hard, and I think that's endearing.
A friend of mine tows his Smart car behind his RV. In the back window there’s a sticker that says “Please be patient, I’m pushing as hard as I can”. Puts a smile on every bodies face
Love the 450 fortwo. Had one for years. Dirt cheap to run and a breeze to drive in town. The effortless parking is a bonus. Great vids Andy. As for the future, keep it.
Thanks for your effort in putting this up for us Andy mate 👍👍👍 It was both fun & surprising to actually see you make it work , sleeping in this teeny weeny car ! Lol 😊😊😊😅😅👍 Where there's a will , there's a way , right ? Food looked yummie to ! 👍🍺🍺 And until the next time , I'll see you soon ! 🌲🌲🌲👍
Simon brought back memories with his kipper and the fried egg. Andy you did the same in a way. Used to love having decent sausage rolls and dunking them in Heinz tomato soup 👍
I love my smart car! I'm currently driving my second, as I was rear ended on the interstate which totaled my first. All fine, all was well. I can't tell what kind of tires you have on it. If they are Continental Pro (Conti Pro), CHANGE THEM. Smarts don't handle as well wearing Conti Pro's. It'll make a big difference in your everyday driving. Great job!
You always impress and surprise me virtually every video Andy with your ability to try something new and different out, you looked like you had a load of fun with this one too, so hat's off to ya, all the best pal.
I've come to really enjoy your videos. Definitely make my day better. No crazy editing. Very calming and relaxing, just a man with a camera making camping videos. I even learn about different tents and such:) keep the uploads coming we enjoy them.
If I didn’t already love a smart car I certainly do now!! What an amazing vid this is!! Theme tune was the best. You can tell how much you genuinely love these camps Andy and I love watching them! PLEASE raffle the smart car!! I want to enter already xx
Great to see what a little creative thinking can do. Fun video which shows that we don't need complex solutions to get out for a night in nature. I would put better tyres on it and do a road trip for a couple of nights away. A week may be asking too much of you!
I found this vid oddly fascinating and rather enjoyable. Furthermore, I rate this vid much higher than many of it's recent predecessors which tended to feel like one long advertisement. Really impressed with how you kitted out this tiny vehicle and finally a normal simple camping dinner and lovely breakfast. The great thing about having a desert is it creates a sense of luxury no matter how much you rough it. Also, couldn't help but admire the the wood stack. Maybe you didn't need to prep that much! 🤣🤣🤣
Huge Fan Points for humming the A-Team theme song. And always a fun, informative and fascinating foray camping! "I love it when a plan comes together."😂
I work at several festivals every year and do long distance runs frequently,I sometimes carry a 5m canvas tent which the car would fit into no problem, I've never slept in it (yet) but the versatility of my smart is a constant delight.
I enjoy all your episodes, but especially this one. I love the idea of a Smar Car camper. Watching you do more to outfit it before you sell or raffle it off would be fun!
Loving this video. Giving me great ideas towards using my Smart for occasional overnight camps. I am shorter than you and have already tested out that I can sleep comfortably with all doors closed! ❤❤❤
Love the smart car. Would never have thought anyone could use it as a mini camper!! Bit of a difference to your normal mode of transport!! Loved the simple dinner but then the 'posh nosh' for brekkies'!! Made my day watching you always a good watch. Thanks Andy. The question as to whether you should sell the smart car, what do you want to do? Already looking forward to you next adventure!
Thx Andy, I enjoyed another one.. That car & ALL met your camp needs COOL & I bet it's GREAT on gas.. GOOD job on your PAINT job and LIL kitchen BOX & all.. You're videos are ALWAYS GREAT.. THX..
Really nice bloke relaxing and interesting,watching him helped me with the loss of my dad two years ago now since I have been suffering stress it’s helped me to relax again ,thank you K s
Gee Andy I think the first thing you should do is buy a battery for it or a pull rope for back up starter. Add a small hand winch and just a little lift and bam it would be a keeper beats the crap out of sleeping on the ground. Great episode looking forward to next adventure.☮️out my friend.
Looked at the beer website at work, boss saw and wanted to know what I was doing, told him he ruined the Christmas surprise I was going to get for him...phew!
Andrew, you simply amaze me with your ingenuity. You take a little tiny car and turn it into a camping car. The only difference in sleeping in it lying down. I would have turned my direction the other way. Head toward the bumper and feet toward the dash, so I could have swung my legs out through the passenger door. Otherwise you have to scooch yourself down to the opening of the bumper. Anyway, what a cool idea. Sorry you got yourself stuck. Maybe some chains on the tires would have done the trick. 😂 Haha
Awesome little setup Andy! You couldn’t have chosen a better meal for the beginning of the cold weather. Lots of snow here on the hills of fylingdales moor.
So quirky and lots of fun. Love your pods as you are all about conquering all "NO,S". Smashed it once again Mark Personally I'd love to see more trips out in the "Tango'd little Car ". that's never to be underestimated.
I quite like the panelling job you did. Never would have guessed that you did that. Great little motor as well. I imagine it would be cosy and you can open a window a little to get rid of condensation.
That thing is frankly ridiculous, but good on you for trying it out. Very entertaining. At least you had a lot of firewood around you. You should do a tank track conversion, some people have done that with a Smart Car. PS. Yes, we could hear the owls. PPS. The toastie and soup/sponge and custard looked like mass-produced trash and oh God I wish I could have been there to share it with you. And the beers. Definitely the beers. Lovely breakfast too. PPPS. Nice A-Team reference. I love it when a plan comes together.

Just bring along one of your big tents and drive it straight in!
Garage camping 🤓💥❤
😂😂😂
Brilliant idea if the weather turns nasty you are still warm and safe
You don’t even need a very big tent
:-)

Elcaroht! Yes, it's so well done and good to see😊
yeah it does a really good reset love it
I agree! It's so well done
Cutting a sandwich diagonally always makes it taste better 😂👌

@joannesmart6021 It thinks it escapes but no! Mnom mnom...
No it's wrong! Should be punishable by imprisonment.
You're essentially the Bob Ross of camping channels!
Perfect 🤣
Andy and Steve Wallis share that title IMO
That's the first time I actually laughed for a long time😂 nice one!
Imagine if Bob was a serial killer and painted where he'd hidden the bodies lol
I would say that American crack head one pot one blanket
Love the A-Team theme while taking down the tent!
we were humming along right or was that just me?
I love it when a camping plan comes together!
I came here to say this. 😊
I noticed that you usually pitch your awnings flat and when it rains, you get drips and pooling near the shelter.
If you pitch it sloped downward from the door, with one corner slightly lower than the other, you won't have any problems with drainage.

Omg Andy, I need that car and set-up! I'm only 5'6 so I could easily sleep in the glove box 😆 another cracking video, keep up the great work
i love it when a plan comes together
You constantly surprise and entertain us Andy.. thank you
What were you surprised about?
Always enjoyed your videos Andy but I've just entered the modern world and bought a Smart TV, so have gone from watching on a 5 and a half inch mobile phone screen to a 55 inch screen! Just amazing.
Andy, If you ever get stuck like that again let the tyre pressures down (driven wheels only) to around 5 psi. You won't believe what you can get out of if you do. An almost flat tyre gives a much bigger footprint and really improves grip. Just be sure you have a pump with you.
I think a raffle is a great idea!
Another top video. Super snug camping set up, beautiful surroundings, nice bit o' scran, beer, hot chocolate and an atmospheric fire; what's not to enjoy!?!
I just bought a Smart 451 and I love it. I'd never take it out like this but it's my favorite car i have owned
lol , we've had a smart in the family for about 10 years , i use it , wife uses it & both kids do , so handy for scooting around town / popping to the shop .. never thought of using it as a camper
I can't imagine owning one simply from the fact it's a 3 lug lmao, it drives me crazy

Great video, Andy. Although, I don't see why you didn't just pick it up and move it over when you got stuck. Thank you for taking us along.
😂
The aeroplane comment was mint!✈
fooking airplanes 😆
Now I thought my Citroen Berlingo van conversion was a ‘micro-camper’, you’ve gone and taken it to a whole new level. Nice one! 😁👍
Love the 450 fortwo. Had one for years. Dirt cheap to run and a breeze to drive in town. The effortless parking is a bonus. Great vids Andy. As for the future, keep it.

Me complaining about my camper being too small, you’ve taking it to the next level with a Smart.
Legend!! 🙏🏼🥰
Can't wait to what's next!
@@spitthedog1979 For whatever it's worth, you're replying to an automated bot.
Micro car camping with micro meals. Love the music at the end.
You put so much thought and work into your camping projects, very entertaining
Its good that the awning pegs will stop the car blowing away 😉
😅
I figured his sitting on the end might tip the front of the car.

Thanks for the video. I really love them. Thanks for your efforts its much apricated.
You could just take a 3m x 3m gazebo along and park the whole car under it, then you could sleep with the windows cracked too 😊
Good for keeping morning sun off you also!
You always impress and surprise me virtually every video Andy with your ability to try something new and different out, you looked like you had a load of fun with this one too, so hat's off to ya, all the best pal.
Great video! Next time you want to toast your muffin, put it in the RidgeMonkey the same way you did for the toastie the night before.
Yes. Otherwise you are eating the fuel. I cringed over this one too.
It's the first time i see someone camp inside a lunch box, mind-blowing
Buttering the sandwich maker is probably the smartest thing I've seen in 2024. Who knew 😂 Cheers to you Kent 🍻
Use mayo on the outside of the bread...makes it real crispy

Your cute little camper looks like a little ball of sunshine ❤
Ham and cheese toastie, tomato soup, beer and hot chocolate. You are truly living the dream!
My 3 sauce bottles arrived today thank you. Looks great. Christmas gift for my brother-in-law 😁
Thanks Andy for a fun, entertaining and quality upload. It's amazing what you can do when you put your mind to it.😊
I'm impressed with how comfy this mod is in such a small vehicle.
Great video! I really like that car/camper!!! Very unique! Thank you!

"I love it when a plan comes together."😂
Neat, some off road tires good idea nice little camper set up, great to go off out for the day and find a spot to camp.
Great video can't wait to see what's next
The cozier it is, the more I like it. This was great!!!
That stove looks like a great piece of kit! We also use our tiny car as a camper, so that stove would come in handy.
I work at several festivals every year and do long distance runs frequently,I sometimes carry a 5m canvas tent which the car would fit into no problem, I've never slept in it (yet) but the versatility of my smart is a constant delight.

Lol needed this to day thanks Andy.
I broke quite a few branches, chopped quite a few firewood .. Moscow is watching you 😊
Breakfast looked superb Andy!!!
I hope your sales are soaring! Unbelievable sleeping length in that Smart car! We've had our first major snow dump! 👍😎🇨🇦🔥❄️
Awesome little setup Andy! You couldn’t have chosen a better meal for the beginning of the cold weather. Lots of snow here on the hills of fylingdales moor.
This is easily one of my favorite channels on TH-cam. Keep up the great videos, Andy! Superb stuff!
So quirky and lots of fun. Love your pods as you are all about conquering all "NO,S". Smashed it once again Mark
Personally I'd love to see more trips out in the "Tango'd little Car ". that's never to be underestimated.
Aaww fantastic..brillint video just shows you what you can do with a small car, have learnt alot..😊😊
Oh Andrew, those things that attach to your window to block out the light, we call "suction cups" hahaha 🤣
Not little suckers? 😊
I quite like the panelling job you did. Never would have guessed that you did that. Great little motor as well. I imagine it would be cosy and you can open a window a little to get rid of condensation.
I can only watch your videos when I can time my meals around them! they always make me hungry...😋 But always enjoyable!
Love it! We drove one at an event in Ann Arbor, Michigan. Never considered making a camper from one!
I liked this camping video. Good easy meals and cozy sleeping quarters. This one was fun!
exactly what i needed for my Wednesday
That thing is frankly ridiculous, but good on you for trying it out. Very entertaining. At least you had a lot of firewood around you. You should do a tank track conversion, some people have done that with a Smart Car.
PS. Yes, we could hear the owls.
PPS. The toastie and soup/sponge and custard looked like mass-produced trash and oh God I wish I could have been there to share it with you. And the beers. Definitely the beers. Lovely breakfast too.
PPPS. Nice A-Team reference. I love it when a plan comes together.
I have never seen an egg cooked in boiling water like that. Cool. I want to try it.
Your no going to belive me😊 purchased a smartcar😊 last Monday a 55 plate I thought my days of car camping were over ut you have proved me wrong
Very nice micro camper build Andy the camping GOAT
ps Seat Ibiza mk4 models are a great size for similar projects. They are a bit longer
