      @@ThoseHappyDays Absolutely, ever since I saw your four choices I really was worried you would go for the pop top and I just knew it was the wrong thing to do. In fact I actually prayed you wouldn’t choose a pop top. I thought about the two of you all week. This is a brilliant choice because it gives you all the advantages of a pop top without the disadvantages. I knew how much Janine feels the cold and it is not always hot in the USA and as it will be your home, and when you get back to the UK, well, you know our weather. Bless you both and all the good luck and blessings for you on your next adventure. Oh, make sure contents of the van are very secure for the shipping, plus, apparently you can stay overnight in the car parks of Cracker Barrels, which the Roaming Radfords say are really good places to stop at when travelling around the States.💜💜💜💜💜

      @Lynwen10 3 วันที่ผ่านมา +6

      @@jane-fw4nh Exactly, as your main bed it could be problematic. When the weather is really bad, high winds, heavy rain, well, it can be a bit challenging and think about the cold. This is their home, so that is why I think a pop top is not a good idea, lovely in hot weather and from the point of view of security there could be issues. Glad your pop top works so well for you.

    The smaller bed “downstairs” is brilliant! This is your home and if someone isn’t feeling well 😢 they can sleep downstairs (close to the bathroom). You’re right-this checks ✅ a lot of boxes!

Ideal space for Janine’s editing, a loo, a shower and it’ll be really warm for Janine! Get a load or flat flexi panel solar panels on the top and you’re off!

    Hi, we have same van, also bought it from Wandahome in May 2023. Currently in France. It is a great van. We ditched the directors chairs as they took up too much garage space and replaced with Helinox Sunset chairs which we can store in the space behind passengers seats. We've also fitting 2 shelves in the wardrobe and keep our clothes in packing cubes. Happy to answer any questions you might have about the van. Enjoy 🥰

      I need to reiterate: get your own insurance set up when you ship (Southampton to Newark?) the van. If you rely on the shipping line, their Terms & Conditions would pay you peanuts for any damage. Your freight forwarder should have an insurance policy you can buy that gives you real world protection.(50 years shipping experience.)

    You might think it's a small space, but compared to your Berlingo, it's massive. It's amazing and so beautiful. Just enjoy every second of it on your travels. I remember when I first saw our new mitorhome Knaus, so exciting. German built are always amazing. Unfortunately, that part of my life has come to an end due to my husband's passing last year. So go fior it and enjoy every minute no matter where you go. Stay safe and drive carefully. Xx

    cool we used 200mm wheel size kick scooters which were ideal in the USA as we could carry them in once we got to a store. They fold up really small for your garage, the bigger wheels work well pn trails and don't get punctures from goat heads which are a sharp seed head that destroys bicycle tyres. Also theft of bicycles is rampant.

    Good to see that you’ve found a solution to not having a tent style pop top but still managing to have a similar space and layout. The bathroom in such a small vehicle is a surprise, I thought you were going to say that not having one was going to be your compromise when I saw it from the outside. A smaller space than Morgan but much bigger than the micro camper so hopefully ideal for your needs. I’m looking forward to watching your future adventures in the new van and seeing how you find it for full time living.

    Fantastic. Really good to see it has a towbar that means you have the option of a garage as big as you like if you want to. They also do a variety of boxes. As it’s your first awning get some awning straps asap. Never leave it up overnight and put it away if the wind begins to rise. It’s ok with the proper straps but even with those don’t risk it in bad weather. Once they break loose they can cause a lot of damage. We agree this is the right van for you now. Agile, economic, room to socialise. We wish you many happy miles of safe, fun travel 👍

    I'm SO glad you got that and not a pop top. My dad had one that I thought was rather inconvenient bordering on downright stupid. I really love that when you're sleeping up there, you probably won't feel so vulnerable from people walking by and peeking in your windows! have fun carrying on, kids! You did a great job!

    Congratulations you two, lovely van.Having said that it doesn't do any thing our 35 years old Autosleeper Legend (fibreglass monocoque) can do ! The key is the practical small size and clever utilization of space. Happy travels !

    • @ThoseHappyDays

      So true! It's great to see people really thinking about the space and when a design works they keep it and only slightly tweak it each year

    We do not have recent Westfalia here in the US. We wish we did. This is perfect for what you want. The only thing i think you are missing are thermal window covers. As there are not sold in the US you probably need to get the thermal covers in Europe.
    These will make a huge difference camping in the winter.
    Congratulations!

    Congratulations on your purchase. Well done for realising every van will have compromises, and working out how you use your van and where your compromises are, for each of us that is different, which is why hey make so many different variations of campervans

  • @mariannescarlett7262

    Hi guys, well, I'm so chuffed with your campervan, excellent choice. I felt Janine pain with the micro camper, no kitchen area, and no wardrobe. Dreams do come true!!
    We also have a blue Westfalia Nugget hard top, but on a Ford LHD, sadly, it's not an automatic (wel jel).
    We bought it in England 2016 and changed to Spanish plates. It's been great times, although unlike yours, no interior shower. We have seen the Bunkervan models made in Spain and fallen in love ...one day!!
    Enjoy your time away, and I hope that Janine gets her Irish passport soon.
    ¡Buen viaje!

    What a cool van! I love how they've implemented all of the creature comforts in such a seamless way. The only thing I would caution against while you're in the U.S. is the fact that you need to be careful getting in and out of the vehicle, because not only are the roads on the opposite side, but so are the steering wheels, so you have to be mindful of traffic on the passenger side.

    I was one of those who suggested not to get a pop top as I’ve had one for years and they can be a pain in bad weather. I saw one of these near Ben Nevis last winter, the German couple who owned it showed me round and I was blown away. I’d love one, great choice you’ll be cozy and safe in it , happy travels!
