  • In this video I go over my Kangoo van conversion.
    This van is absolutely ideal for staying in for one night every couple of months and has everything I need in one place.
    Everything on this video was advised for me to do and double check before you look to cover yours, especially if you're looking to be staying in on a long term basis! Airflow through the van is created with opening the windows to reduce condensation so if you're looking for a long term camper solution I would make sure you check the proper protocol or take it to a specialist to convert. For a short term solution it is ideal!

    That's one of the best builds I've seen. Clean, good space with the bed and the fold up bed and pull out bed is perfect.

    Thanks for taking the time to do this. Assisting people like myself wanting to do similar project. Cycling ( road ) and kayaking for me. One night , two at most. Cheers

    Awesome, well done fella, great build. I'm looking to buy a van and do something very similar...possibly having a basin too space depending

    Great vid. I was looking for some inspiration for a fold down bed instead of a pull out as I will need space for 2 x bikes. I will modify your design by cutting into the folding bed and removing some wood (bed slat) to make it lighter for fuel consumption and to circulate air under the mattress.

    Love the fold down bed idea, forgive me but I will be copying that idea, possibly the most practical kangoo version I've seen, I don't need room for a bike but a fold down kitchen surface would work for me

    • @TrailRiderMTB
      @TrailRiderMTB  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Guess it depends on your usage. For the amount I'll sleep in it (once every month or two over summer) then yeah! But a long term solution where you'll be using it on a regular basis you may want to have a look around just incase there's better suggestions!

    Hi we are looking at a Fiat Doblo. My wives bike is 1.6m long with front wheel out. I know this is going to be very tight. Did you gain much added from with removing the bulkhead. Im thinking im going to have to the same. Is just the curve that shortens the length it seems. I wondered if you gain much we removing it. Thanks.
