Clever that line to line up the car to the tent! Wow. Never thought of that! Easier to see than brown wood ore sticks.!!! That will I also do from now on!
sweet ride
Some excellent tips , thanks
We are just about to get our van (can’t wait!) and looked at this video to pick up any tips and I am really glad I did! Thank you for making it. Happy travelling!
Thank you 😊
How exciting! Lots of adventures to come!
Happy camping!!
WOW! Lots of great ideas (the guideline on the ground makes so much sense!). Thanks for sharing!
Thanks great video. We've got an 04 panel van and this year having already lined it we are going to fit cupboards and a bed so seeing yours is inspirational.
Ted Edwards cheers! Thank you. Glad to help you in your quest. All the best for your conversion 👍🏼
Great real-world video. Just what I needed to see before buying a t5! Thank you!
Matt Vale-Smith yeah agree, thats why im here
I'm glad I watched this video! Very good 👍 I've just spent 3 years converting my T5 van to campervan. When I go to bed in the poptop I stretch a cargo net across the hole to stop my pillows falling down 😂👍
Philip cross 😂 glad you enjoyed!
The little extension board has been great- gives our boys extra length too 👍🏼
Cracking video. Just what I was looking for so that the wife can see what I'm going on about. Now to find a van :)
Fly Frosty thank you. Hope you find a great van 👍🏼
Really useful, thanks!
Awesome, looks great for the family!
Great video, gonna buy one when I retire 👍 enjoy your holiday
Terrific thanks just picked up my T6 ,haven’t a clue 🙄but this has been very helpful.
Your covered patio adds so much living space. Love it.
Pro trick : watch series on Kaldrostream. I've been using them for watching all kinds of movies these days.
@Harley Creed Definitely, been using KaldroStream for months myself :)
@Harley Creed yup, I've been watching on kaldrostream for years myself :D
The Transporter is my dream car thanks for sharing
nice video
Can’t beat a bit of Dobble for a great travel game 😊👍
Nice van too, enjoy.
Good vid. Watched using headphones and the music at the end blew me drums lol.
Great video, also good conversion!
Think Van Life thank you 👍🏼
We started off wit a T6 campervan we converted. We've not moved up to a knaus motorhome. We love Bunree campsite. Been a few times. New to your channel
Loved the video , we have just bought a T5 and got some useful tips from you ! The start of mnay adventures . Good luck
This is really cool.
Very informative video, great se t up, well done
Highlander 999 Thank you for your kind comment 😀
Great video , very informative with everything covered, thanks
Nelson O'Neill Thank you 👍🏼
Brilliant video 👍
Thank you 👍🏼
Looks like lots of fun!
Good informative video and a great van!
Brilliant video thanks. We are renting a VW transporter campervan for a few weeks to travel around Switzerland & France, so this is perfect for figuring out what storage space we will have and what to bring with us. Thanks for sharing this. :)
Andrea Balderstone wow fantastic! Im sure you’ll have an amazing time. We’re going to Switzerland and France too this summer. We can’t wait!
I like the windshield cover. My van came with a thermal cover that is very very bulky. Not good when storage is at a premium
great video - love the fact you have a coffee machine .... now that's luxury ! happy travels
Also I love your idea for the extra board in the pop top - might have to nick that one !
Lovely van enjoy
Happy camping 👍
Awesome vid
Looks great. I’m dying to get a T5 but no funds!!!! I’ll get one eventually.
I’ve bought t5 now I’ve no funds either mate ....you can’t win eh 😭
We’re looking at campers and I’ve got lots of tips from your video, thanks! We’ve got 2 small children and was wondering if anyone can advise us regarding the pop top please: would a black canvas make it darker inside or does it not make much difference? The one we like has a light grey canvas but anything to help them sleep longer is an advantage! 😂 Thanks x
Hayley Bowker Thank you! Ours doesn’t let too much light in. But I know lots of people get pop top thermal covers to reduce light, condensation and sound. We’d like to get one to help with the condensation and sound.
@@MackVentures thanks so much! I'll definitely get some 👍 I'm getting really excited about our future adventures watching your videos 😁 x
Hayley Bowker
Soooo exciting! Lots of memories to be made and places to explore!
Ooh, could do with some of those magnet hooks. Do you have the website? Ta.
We got them from
www.first4magnets.com/hooks-eyebolt-magnets-t166
If you are going to start vloging you might be better off buying a lav mic. Other than that a very nice set up.
Great video. Can you run hairdryers and kettles without any issue in the van? I’ve read about power cutting out etc, thanks.
Our kettle is absolutely fine- it is a low voltage camping kettle. However we also run a fan heater and tassimo machine with no problems at all.
Thanks very much - that’s good to know! 😀
Where can I buy this lift kit?
You need to get yourself a good light for when you are filming !
Alan Garner 👍🏼
Thanks for getting back. Good luck with your trips out 👍🏻🤓👍🏻
I would like to know where the site it is?
It’s called Bunree. Near Fort William in Scotland 🏴
great video, what size are your wheels and has it been lowered? cheers
Just bought a van ...Jesus I’ve got loads to do 😔
What mattress topper do you have for your main bed?
Adam Routley we bought a memory foam mattress topper from Aldi (they sell them at different times in the year. we ordered online). I then took it out of the cover and cut the foam to fit the shape of the bed, then put the cover back on. 👍🏼😀
hi where can i buy the bed structure for my transporter? thanks a lot.
exactly the sort to thing I am looking to buy, how much did the van cost you? and how much did it cost to get it converted?
Thanks. We actually bought the van from someone who does conversions ... www.buyacamper.co.uk
We just didn’t have the time to do it ourselves. We bought it for just under £17k.
Mack Ventures thanks 😁, do you know of any other websites aswell? My price limit is around 15k
HONEY Project We had a look at Mayfair Campers on Facebook- they advertise on eBay.
Mack Ventures thanks😊🤘🏻
@@HONEYPROJECT Where are you from?
Hi. This is the short wheel base right?
You were at loch Linnhe, pronounced "Linny". Lol
I'm looking for a similar camper, but don't want to spend a fortune. Wish it had a toilet though.
Didn't realise that you can get such an awning, that will be expensive no doubt as anything to do with camper vans are. :)
Did camper come with a mattress for pop top bed. Just had our conversion but no mattress and not sure which one I need to get
Gavin Morgan it did come with the camper. I Know it’s a memory foam mattress. The company who did the conversion provided it. If you contact them with the measurements I’m sure they could help you. It’s buyacamper.co.uk 👍🏼
Try Duverlay, a little expensive but very comfy.
Where did you bought that van cover
Cora The Explorer
It actually came with the van at buyacamper.co.uk
Where did u get your folding table
Cora The Explorer The table inside the van came with it. The company who did the conversion also provided the table. Www.buyacamper.com
Hi there where abouts in Scotland were you? That sky in the video looked amazing .
James 3rd We stayed at Bunree campsite which is about 20 minutes south of Fort William. It was a fantastic site with breathtaking views across the loch.
I Seen a lot of T5 conversions and they all have the same setup.. is that standard? Meaning the only way to convert it other than with a poptop?
Brandon Robinson hi! There are other layouts where there can be a wider full width back seat/ bed and then a kitchen behind the front seats. With that layout you wouldn’t be able to swivel the front seats to face inwards though.
Ah ok thanks
Great set up:-). I’ve just got my T5 and those magnetic hooks would be perfect, don’t suppose you have a link? I’ve seen some on Amaobut not sure if they’d be strong enough to hold through the carpet.
Thanks
Mike
Thank you 😊
They were definitely a great buy. Loads of options on the website but here’s the link for ours
www.first4magnets.com/hook-eyebolt-clamping-c40/25mm-white-or-black-painted-neodymium-hook-magnet-with-m4-hook-20kg-pull-p6731
Mack Ventures that’s brilliant, thank you so much.:-)

Can I hear a Cardiff twang?
Kilex not far off 😀 about 15 miles away from Cardiff. 👍🏼
@@MackVentures I'm near Llantrisant. Great videos. I pick up my Nissan NV200 camper on Saturday. Roll on the adventures.
Kilex fab! Enjoy your adventures 👍🏼😀🚐
@@MackVentures Will do!
Is it actually cheaper to get a van converted than buy an actual camper?
If you have the time and skills to do it, then yes it’s cheaper. My father-in-law converted his own but got the windows and roof fitted professionally. We however didn’t have the time to do it ourselves.
No shower,no camper.
Unless you buy a Kepler 1 or 6. Look at them, but they're expensive.
Looks like torture
Hi. This is the short wheel base right?
Rhys Holley hi! Yes it is 👍🏼
