Van Life will never be the same again!

- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 15 ส.ค. 2024
- The Upgrade YOU all recommended is here!! It's taken over three years but we have finally upgraded the single most recommended thing in our van. After passing MOT we are taking advantage of being back in the UK to do some #vanlifeupgrades making major van improvements before hitting the road again! Not all our improvements or fixes go to plan, and the weather is not our friend! But ultimately we are a lot close to getting back on the road and are so happy to be making progress on our home on wheels.
Installing a single drivers seat was a lot easier than we expected! Sadly the side door problems look like they will still be haunting us, so will our dodgy bumper paint job.

⤈ WHO WE ARE ⤈
We are Philly and Keely and we live full time in our tiny home on wheels Martha. After building our DIY home in a Citroen Relay camper we spent a year living on the streets of London before quitting our jobs only to be met with lockdown. Then we took our van further than she had ever been before to the very beautiful Turkey. Enroute we stopped off in Spain for a few weeks where we experienced every van lifers worst nightmare, we were robbed and they stole all valuables in our van. But now we are back on our feet, fully MOT’d and back on the road through Europe before we experienced another vanlife nightmare... our van caught fire! After the trauma of that we had a massive change of plan and have now made our way to Japan. We are starting a Japanese road trip and excited to bring you all along.

Thanks for watching everyone! Feels so good to be making progress on the van! You guys were right about the seat, it was defo a good decision! P.S. Lets all thank Keely's Mum and Dad letting us live outside their house and work on the van!
From chaos comes calm which equals beautiful Martha.....bravo ! James xxx
Thanks James, Shes looking pretty good right now I have to say 🥰🥰
Oh Philly & Keely, we love you so much! 🙂
Thankyou 🥰🥰🥰🥰
Wherever ye go I'm with ye so bring it on😁😁😁
Thanks Veronica 🥰🥰
The bob marley overlay Got me a good chuckle.
Mom and dad cameo! ❤❤❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉😊 legends
Whatever you are doing, you bring so much joy with your humour and positivity. I've been home for 2 weeks now and sitting on my daughter's drive, and as much as I love her and my grandchildren, I need some wide open spaces and no people, no cars, and no pollution. Oh yes Philly....if Keeley is old, what does that make me, a 68yr old full-timer? As long as I am physically able, I will be living and traveling in my van because it is my truly happy place. Safe travels guys 🚐
Thanks so much Julie 🥰🥰 yeah the open road is calling!
👍 for mum and dad
👍👍 they are good to us aren't they 🥰🥰
Keely’s mum and dad are so cute!! I know you did this video months ago but just found you and having a binge watch 😆
😂 thanks so much Katie, they will be glad to hear that! Enjoy the binge watch! I love when I find a new channel and have lots to catch up on haha
Very enjoyable episode, Martha looking fab , great to meet the Mammy & Daddy 👍👏👏
Thanks Raymond🥰🥰
I love your new single seat and Martha looks amazing. You both always make me smile from ear to ear. Enjoy your next adventure.
Thanks so much Deborah! 🥰 Our girl is feeling good right now
You guys are just great. I just love watching you both. What a great job you both have done. Sorry I laughed so much. What a joy.
Thanks so much heather, glad we made you laugh 🥰😂
Another gorgeous update from you two! Thoroughly entertaining either on or off the road. 😍
Thankyou 🥰🥰
Hi Philly and Keely. Great job with the seat replacement on your van. What a difference it makes to being able to get into the back of the van. Glad the MOT went well. Take care. Nick
Yeah such a great addition, crazy we didn't do it sooner!!
I feel your organizing angst - I am working on a long neglected porch and it is taking FOREVER- Totally love your channel and hope the sun shines for you on your next adventure- my daughter and I went to Northern Ireland once and we loved it but a typhoon followed us there 😳 Happy travels!!! ❤
A Typhoon that's madness! The longer you neglect the porch the worse it would get, so good you are tackling it now 💪💪
We’re still in denial about needing a single seat. Our dog LOVES driving in the middle seat and looking out…. Next stop, maybe Norway? Summers are great and it’s heaven for camping 🤩 and let us know if you’re somewhere around Flåm 😊
Norway would be epic, we just worry about the cost of it 😭
Keely mate, just wait until like June/July to do the bumpers. Not worth the hassle. Also, I think you could have got away with not having to paint them 😬 A heat gun brings grey plastics back to black, but you’ll know for the next van 😝
😂 yeah I am defo gonna wait and do a second layer in a hotter country lol! I don't have a heat gun, but I'll know to come borrow yours for next time lol
Keeley- the scene where you are trying out the seat for the first time is absolutely golden!! Live it ❤. I was screaming! Great show this week (& every week!). btw - the bumpers look brilliant!! 😊
Thanks so much 🥰🥰 glad I gave you a laugh at the chair antics 🤣🤣 bumpers look good from afar, but not up close haha
So sorry that you had to level up, hope you are getting better and the accident wasn’t a setback, I’m looking forward to your new van.
We will defo have a new van in our future some day 🤙🤙
Congrats on the chair/bed. Makes a huge difference to the space. Feel better soon..x
Thankyou 🥰🥰
Nice! I just used black bedliner paint on my van on all of the black trim, bumpers, grill and mirrors! It is awesome!
Great tip! The black bumpers really make the van pop don't they!
That was too funny. Bumper spraying in April in the rain. I share your frustrations. Safe travels you guys!
Thanks Bell 🤪 yeah NI weather was major triggering me last week, but it was sunny for days there which was nice. But back to normal now 🤣🌧️
Hi, now you've got the single seat sorted, you'll want a swivel baseplate for it to maximise the potential. So much better for having a bit of space to sit and relax if you have friends around. Super vlog again. Happy travels guy's. 👋
Thanks so much Geoff! Swivel would definitely level it up even more!
I second this! A swivelled front seat adds a disproportionate feeling of space too. Definitely worth doing in my opinion.
Excellent, love the new seat, great you do too, defo the right decision. Wait until you get a swivel base ☺👌
Thanks, loving it so far 💪
Whoop whoop great seat exchange guys xxx
Thanks Jayne 🥰🥰
Martha’s looking good with the updates! 👍 Happy travels 💛
Thankyou 🥰
Well done with the seats guys! For a moment Philly even looked like a handyman 🤣 The bad news is your jobs on a van are never done.
Hope to meet up with you guys on your next trip and compare job lists 👍
Thanks so much man! Yeah it's a tidy job well chuffed with that!
Happy Sunday
Love the caption of your vanlife
Thanks Charlene!! Happy Sunday to you too 🥰
Wow you guys sure got a lot done. The new seating is cool!
Thanks Jayne 🥰
- Single seat install: win.
- Repacked: win.
- LEDs replaced: food tastes better made under daylight bulbs, win.
- Mum said she was proud: win.
- Bumpers sprayed: looks decent on camera from a cooplah metres, win.
- Sliding door fix: looks better from outside, true connoisseurs respect an artful bodge, win.
Coffee: WIIIN!! ☕☕☕
❤️❤️😎✌️xx
Awww thanks so much Aaron, that run down made us so pleased to read, made us realise how much we achieved! King and Queen of artful bodge jobs haha
Yay good for you. So happy for you.
Thanks! So pleased to be getting her ready for life on the road!
Another brilliant video guys ❤️❤️🚐🚐 xx
Thankyou 🥰🥰
Nice upgrades guys! 😊 I would love to see you travel to Norway next!! 🇳🇴❤
We would love that too, just nervous about the cost
…and the strict drone laws where the Noggy Rozzers will track you down like the gestapo.@@phillyandkeely
We have just got back from a tour of Ireland, love loved it. Ring of Kerry, and Dingle wish we had had more time, coast, forest and bogs
Would love to watch your adventures.
Thanks Karen. We did Ring of Kerry & Dongle last year, it was soooooo beautiful and we got great weather for it which was nice. We've been tethered here waiting for packages to arrive, so we still haven't departed or decided where to depart to lmao 🤣 maybe it will be another Ireland trip. If it is we think Wicklow this time. But also might go to Spain or France haha
💗
A swivel mechanism on the front seats would give you several feet extra living space.
Personally, I would enjoy the UK summer, then head to Portugal and Spain when your visas reset.
Thanks Noddy, swivel would be epic! Thankfully when the Irish passport arrives we won't have to worry about Schengen visa anymore 💪💪
I love the both of you, you have such a beautiful vibe. Xx
Thanks so much Debbie 🥰🥰 that's so lovely to say
💚you guys are my favorite on YT by far 💚 remember not to be too hard on yourselves it's mercury retrograde 😮
Thanks so much Dr.P 🥰🥰
Now to throw into the mix a swivel base for the passenger seat!! This means the cabservatory can be fully enjoyed, a 90 degree swivel to put feet up on drivers seat and relax in the warmth, or a 180 degree swivel to sit and look out the side door. It is also handy when swivelled 90 degrees to block passenger door at night and if one of you gets up before the other, can go and sit and relax in the cabservatory.
Got to say the bumpers looked good! Well done on the epic use of cardboard and tape!! 😂
❓Question - would there be any issue if you had your mot done in mainland UK, if the rules are so harsh in NI?
Hope the travelling is going well and the side door ratchet (ingenious idea) is working well.
Cabservatory 🤣🤣 brilliant name! Mainland UK is defo an option for MOT in future! Just good to be home to get post and see family aswell.
Well upgraded Martha . Retail value just shot through the roof . Here in America we call the second hand car parts place a junkyard . What did Philly call it again ? Is that really what it’s called are is that just the quick silly way he makes up words that seem to work ? Maybe you could find a door there . Good to see mom and dad . I think Philly will be quite the mechanic when all this traveling changes to a little plot of land . There’s quite the debate on TH-cam should a nomadic person buy a piece of land ? Are they still nomads ? Well I think it might be good for you two . Especially if it only had a four car garage on the land . One garage for Martha and the other three so you could spread out when you’re home . Keely could stay dry . 🎉Keep celebrating that birthday for a week Philly . People are dying to know what Keely gave you for a present 🎁 ?
He doesn't like presents so just lots of love from me ❤️🥰 We call junk yard a breakers yard (where they break down cars into parts) we probably could have got the door from there because they had a van like ours, but it was dark blue and would be a lot of work reinstalling window, so that's a job for someone else in the future 😂 As for the plot of land, that's our dream. It depends why people are "nomads" for us it's not just about travelling, it's about living a more sustainable life, in touch with nature and our own consumption, and what better way to do that than growing your own food and collecting your own water. For us it's an advancement of what we are searching for with life on the road. Then we will still take trips to far away lands to get our travel fix with our land as our base to return to ❤️❤️
Guys, please speak to an automotive engineer. I don’t want to bring the mood down, but I’m not sure if that all-thread/big threaded length will hold up in an accident.
That would snap in my opinion. Just don’t want to see you legends hurt. Peace from down under. Love what you do
Thankyou 🥰 we are going to take it to the body shop and get them to check over it to see if happy. The previous bolt was only 10mm so this is technically thicker than the one that is originally fitted and double bolted on each side so I think it will all be okayed. Appreciate you looking out for our safety 🥰🙏
Matha looks great and the single seat change is fantastic have a great time exploring when ready and stay safe 😀
Thanks so much Andrew! Single seat is epic honestly
Well done. Glen.
Thanks Glen 🥰
Well done 🎉🎉 very productive
Thanks Mary 🥰🥰
Lots done you two. Love the seats upgrade( and lie down mode ha ha) Awe bless your parents Keely, so supportive. Well done on a great clear out. Looking forward to next adventures.
Thanks so much Lorraine 🥰🥰 yeah mum and dad are so good to us ❤️
We were up on Blakey Easter wkend shame we weren't there when you were it would have been lovely to meet you. Happy travels enjoy France 🇫🇷
Thanks Susan 🥰🥰
It's getting a bit patchy!! 🤣🤣
Another cracker lads, never related more to anything than Keely's feelings towards the weather. Looking forward to your next adventure! Morocco??
We are too wimpy for Morocco lol
Love u guys and your vlogs ❤ - you’re an inspiration to us all. Saw your slidey door ratchet-pull fix and tried it out on my buckled Transit barn door (break-in attempt). Blow me down and call me Mister Frodo… it blimen’ worked!!! Thank you so much!! 😊😊😊
Yessss!!! So glad it worked, that's awesome to hear 💪💪 made my day to think it helped ☺️
Yep, Philly is always right but but we love you Keely😉
😂😂 thanks Edwin 😜😜
I recently road tripped around sardegna and would definitely recommend!
Oooo that would be lovely 🥰
You guys got so much done! Martha looks so fabulous and shiny! I think you should install wings on Martha and fly to Chicago 😁 Looking forward to see more of your travels as always ❤❤ xo
Chicago would be epic, maybe find an awesome vegan dip dish 🤤🤤🤤
WE ARE COMING FOR IT 🧯
actually scratch that, you come bring it to us!
Yeah us coming to you sounds much more appealing!
Love van it’s looking 👍
Thanks so much Jeanette 🥰 she is feeling very homely right now for sure
You will really enjoy the access the back of the van to the front without having to go outside first!!👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻🥰
Yeah it's great so far!! Such a game changer
Omg you two are the best l love you both, lots of love from your Aussie friend
Thanks so much Donna 🥰🥰 sending you lots of love back to Oz
Loved the video! The Van Life projects seriously never stop 😂 but WOW does it feel good when you can actually check some things off the list!
It looks like you have a cell booster on the roof? Which one did you end up going with!?
Looking forward to seeing where you go next!
Thanks guys. Motorhome WiFi is who we went with. It's well expensive, but we really needed it for tuition and TH-cam, internet is very important for us to have everywhere. In Europe it's great and gets us internet everywhere, but in UK our internet is crap lol.
I reckon Banksy is a worried man after watching Keely with that spray can 😂.
The single comfy Keely seat is a brilliant idea. Probably wish you'd fitted it ages ago haha.
Any clues where you're heading off to?
Fab content and editing as per. See you soon 😁💚
We still haven't decided where we are going 🤣 waiting for a couple more deliveries and hopefully by then we will have made a decision
Spring cleaning can be draining but it's so worth it in the end. Loving the outtakes at the end! And that blue sky when it finally hit was as blue as the sea in Greece. 😉
Yeah when the sun is shining this place is great ☀️ but we defo miss Greece lol 😂
Great video as always guys. We have been considering a single seat in our van, after seeing this I think it a definite yes now. Thanks 😊
Yeah it actually is so good! Thanks Melissa
Weather sympathy from glasgow! Martha's glow up was worth it!
Thanks so much Lana! The sun is shining today which is nice ☀️🥰 fingers crossed it lasts while we are here waiting for some post
Love your new seats! How convenient to have that pass through!! I don’t always agree with Philly. That hat was purple 💜😂!! And yes sometimes you just get enough of family… even if you do love them. Safe travels wherever you are! 💛🌴😘
Yesssss purple!! Thanks Carina 🥰
Awesome video
Thanks Tomas 🥰
The van looks great! Well done guys!
Thanks Linda 🥰
Apart from the Balearics, Iceland? Happy Travels! 🥰
Oooo excellent idea 💡 thanks Elaine ❤️
♥️♥️♥️♥️Come to Florida! ♥️♥️♥️♥️
Now that would be awesome!
Hey GUYS! Great job! I'm so happy that you got all of your jobs completed you were very entertaining to me. I laughed right with you keely. Philly great job with the seats! I can't tell you how much I enjoy you guys. Van looks great. I felt like I was right there with you guys. Safe travels my dears . Love you guys😂🤣😃😄😅😆😉
Thanks so much Sandra! We always love hearing that our videos have made people laugh, it's good for the soul 🥰🥰 so happy to have you with his 💕
Nice job!!! Literally the only TH-cam channel that makes me lol every time. Muhahaha🤣 Love you guys!❤
Thanks so much Rachel 🥰😂 so glad we make you laugh
Fitting another driver's seat: what an ingenious hack over more expensive options. The driver's seat is bound to be the best seat with all the adjustments. Thought you were going back to Spain, I'm off to Spain next week for a mini road trip, can't wait as it's just not stopped raining in the UK for months! If you're not going to Spain, then I think you should head to France before it gets too hot, there's so many great places to camp for free in France.
Thanks so much PB, the original plan was Spain, but we have a wedding in June so trying to figure out best option where to go for the next five weeks, it too far or expensive to drive/fly back for wedding
@@phillyandkeely Oh then makes a lot of sense to enjoy the summer in Ireland as it’ll be too hot in Europe anyway. The good weather can’t be far away! Thanks for in instant reply as ever!
Ah the good old Norn Iron weather 😂 Any wonder we are a grumpy lot 😂😂😂 ...Martha looking great, hopefully you pair will see the sun soon ❤
Thanks MacJac, it defo wears ya down doesn't it 🤣🤣🌧️🌧️ She looks better from afar haha
The other day the sun was shining in the sky and big heavy hail was clattering down ...surreal ...what a wee country though 😍.....even better on the 5+ sunny days we have 🤣
Nice one guys! I cut my double in half but I must say you did a great job adding that drivers seat in!
Braver than us max!! So excited to see rose in person some day!!
loving the new single seat arrangement!! So spacious looking. Are you staying in the UK ? If so come to Cornwall before the silly season starts... I can make a mean coffee and vegan cakes!!!
Thanks so much Sally! We haven't decided where we are going yet haha 🤣🤣
Single seat is a great improvement and watch your head 😂. I never did remember and knocked myself dizzy every time 😂
🤣🤣 I've hit my head every day since!
Bummer for the bumper , LoL
I know right 🤣 thankfully we've got enough to try do another coat of paint on the front bumpers, but I'll wait for a hot dry day!
Martha looking amazing 🎉. You two crack me up x
Thanks so much Denise 🥰🥰 glad we give you a laugh
Love you guys, great job
Thanks Kathleen 🥰🥰
Maybe use a hair dryer to warm up the bumper and help dry the paint
Good recommendation Debra 💪💪
Do you know anyone with a garage to borrow, less angst caused by bloody weather? Well done with the new single seats, now you have access to rear without getting out & using sliding door?💜💙🤗🇦🇺🍻
Exactly our thoughts Pamela, will get away with using side door a lot less! Sadly noone with a garage big enough to fit a van at home lol, all car garages.
I wonder if there perhaps is a way to have a rack on the back of those back doors to put those those climbing mats.
I know what you mean, you just wanna get out there one the road.....me too! Love the new seat situation, it's perfect. Where did you stash the yoga mat? I was working on my sliding door yesterday with a friend who helped. The upper bolt kept loosening so we took it apart, cleaned it and then put it back together with Loctitie...so far, so good. Painting....that's hard, I tried to paint fix an area too, not quite the look I wanted. It's no easy job to get your van just the way you want everything to be. I think Martha is lookin good so far, can't wait to see her on the road again. Take care you two.
Thanks so much Adele, glad to hear you had more success than us with the door lol! The yoga mat lives in the seat with our "entertainment" so our games and stuff, not sure how I've classified the yoga mat as entertainment hahaa
Boiled linseed oil.
About £5 a bottle and l used about a quarter to do the black plastics on the whole van, 12 months ago and still looks good 😁.
Great shout! Will do that to maintain those babies!
Not to put a downer on your seat excitement, but…. The original bolts that you’ve replaced with threaded bar are likely a higher grade steel(stronger bolt) than the threaded bar you’ve used. This could potentially void your insurance if (hopefully not) you are in an accident and the vehicle is assessed because it’s a seat belt anchor point. Again, don’t want to put a downer on it but just a heads up of something to be aware of. 👍👍
Thanks guys, never a downer if sharing valuable info. We actually bought a thicker metal than our previous one was and followed the guys video to a Tee, he had his signed off I think. But we are gonna take it back to the garage to get them to give it the once over just to makesure 🥰🥰
Maybe ship your van to Japan🤔 it’s pretty friendly for campers and RV.
We are just back this winter from a three month trip in Japan. We rented a campervan and it was incredible 🥰, we would love to get back some day, definitely recommend it to everyone. Very expensive to ship our van though, I think you could rent one there for the same price as shipping it lol.
Vans looking good guys. 👍
Thankyou so much!!
We're watching your video guys on acid hahah ♥️♥️
Now that would make for an entertaining watch I'm sure!!! 🤣🤣🤣
@@phillyandkeely always! Love you guys ♥️
ooo,you noobs....keep being funny... still love your vlog and yourselves......never stop and I will never stop watching
Thanks Robert!! Proper noobs 🤣🤣 glad you enjoy it ❤️
😃Plastic bumper paint 🙌🏽
Looks good from a distance 😂
Are you staying in Ireland? Maybe the North Coast, over to Donegal, down to Galway?? Or take the ferry to Cornwall and Devon...So many wonderful choices for you. It never rains in Lurgan, you know! Good luck, can't wait for your next plans.
Thanks so much for the recommendations Anne 🥰🥰
I feel your pain guys. Been trying to seal my roof for 2 weeks and I need 3 days to do it all in..oof! X
Honestly the UK weather is a killer!!
Use a blow torch on sun damaged black plastic, it brings it back to looking new again, trust me.
Now if I had a blow torch that would have been a way cooler looking video!!
@@phillyandkeely Just dont let keely near it, it works a treat though, any weathered plastic and applying a little heat brings the original deep colour back.
@@LOYALISTGOVAN I did this on my Ford Tourneo, looked great for about 3-4 months then it bleached out again.
@@mikebillett7935 yeah ive heard of mixed results, repeating it every 4 months doesnt seem that bad, i have a vw caddy and i did mine in september 22, its still perfect. its less messy than painting or aplying black plastic conditioner, i also noticed that football stadiums are starting to use this method on there seating due to bleaching.
Great work guys. It is so good to be able to move from cab to rear of van. Would you have a link to what e-bikes you have and if you would recommend. Thanks
Hey Sue, yeah the walkway is great 🥰 The ebikes are linked in our description under videos. Called the fiido D3 I think our link gets you £50 off. We really love them, great size for the van.
I’d love to see you adventure off to Northern Europe! Denmark, Norway etc!
We would love that too, just afraid of how expensive it is
@@phillyandkeely that would make a good video too! The realistic cost of it. And how to do it on a budget
You are both doing amazing and making your cosy home on Wheels even more cosier. Loving the single seat!
Can I ask what video platform you use as like the look of your videos! Cheers
Thanks so much, single seat is a win. We use Adobe premiere to edit if that's what you mean?
@ChapterByChapterVlog Glad you are enjoying your single seat. Yes that's what I meant ok getting Steve onto it now!! Ha ha thanks again you guys are awesome 👌
Looking for a destination… my kids said you should come to Sweden to visit us.
Ps. The hat was Blurple
We would love to come to Sweden, we just worry about how much more expensive everything is there 💸 I worry we would run out of money very quickly lol
Take two tins for when you get to hotter climes.
Our thoughts exactly Bill, will do a second coat in a nice hot country!
Now really blow your minds and get a swivel base !
Yes Terry we think that would be revolutionary for sure!!
@@phillyandkeely 🤦🏻♂️
Team Keely 🎉
🥰🥳
Hello , do u remember me , we met when you were in romania , we mat at a capming field. I hope u do remember me! Cya
The campsite when we were with our friends in their van aswell?
Can you now get a swerivl for your seats now😊
Now that would be next level!!
Also, 15:30, a wee cameo from the original project van?!
The OG van slowly rusting away lol
. The door is not closing cause it is missing the upper right corner bolt
I'm gonna have to find someone else with a citreon relay and compare to see what we are missing. It does have the latch and all, it's just out of shape from being in a crash before we bought her, whole side was damaged and never sat right.
@@phillyandkeelymissing bolt " DUCATO 8503.KX " in upper right corner of inner door frame . You can replace the bolt with threaded rod plus 2 nuts and a washer ( sorry if you get a double comment but i donno why youtube decided not to show me my previous replay )
Great video guys. I'm a fellow Norn Iron converted van owner. I have a single passenger seat added same as you guys. Wee question, where did you get the threaded bar to attach the seat belt to?
Bought the threaded bar from B&Q in Lisburn, 12mm bolts and all there too. I've updated description with the link to the video of the guy who installed it and does full explanation, defo follow his video it's awesome
That's great. Thanks. Ordered all the parts now!
