    this is probably one of the best Sprinter vans I've seen in a long time. The bike storage is amazing, great exterior and a comfy interior, plus a real shower! One day... one day...

    I've been researching the van life for a year now, I've seen maybe 130 different videos on peoples Van's and how they've used there space. This has got to e one of the best I've seen out there, it's nearly an RV with all the indoor amenities. The aluminum garage is smart (most use a wooden tray system but with mountian bikes I'd prefer something that would be a bit longer lasting) I think I'll reference your guys build a lot when I eventually make my own

    Looks so cozy! I've been binge watching van tour videos again after ages. Just at the finishing touches stages and need the inspiration to finish the build in the cold! Happy vaning everyone!

    I watched this last night and after watching another 10 van tours today I came back to this van tour because of how good it is! When I eventually do a van conversion I 100% doing it like this or as close as I can get it because you have decent counter space, a large fridge, large oven, seating, a toilet and separate show and a FIXED BED you usually only get either a fixed bed or seating not both together and shit loads of storage. People might disagree and say the shower and toilet is using too much space but for me this is the perfect layout.

  • @AndrewSmith-mz7oj
    @AndrewSmith-mz7oj 6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    One of my favorite vans. Great layout. I like the way there are 4 different sections, so to speak....dining/kitchen, bathroom, bed, and garage. Also, nice looking van, seems to be a good build quality. I think if I ever convert a van, this might be the layout I'd follow. Even though I'm not a mountain biker per se, a garage under the bed is perfect for whatever equipment you might need....surfboards, scuba, climbing. Love it, thanks for sharing!!

    What an amazing conversion. Technical, electrical and solar systems look fantastic and really high spec. I have seen hundreds and this is the best. The tour was far too short though ... would love to have seen a more thorough examination . Well done to the owners. Better than any American Van conversion for high performance conversion.

  • @G-ra-ha-m
    @G-ra-ha-m 5 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    I like the attention to detail in this build and that it has a shower. The sprinter however is a very narrow van and gives less options than the Ducato/Boxer/Relay Sevel platform so you get less space but it's managed well.
    As for stealth - the awning and windows show it's a camper from a mile off LOL
    I do like the build quality though, very nice.

    • @4wdhome106
      @4wdhome106 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      The Adventures of Sarah & James I think the water filtration must be checked out well before going for it. Does it filter microbes, poisons/chemicals (carbon filter does), bacteria, viruses and does it normalises pH? It’s a good idea to know what it does and what it doesn’t. Probably not all of these. There are different kinds of polluted water.
