    Looking around at the recent Newark show we saw a really innovative build from OrangeCampers based on the 5.4m Fiat body (although the demo is on the Citroen) what took us was the enthusiasm of the builder Richard and his wife Sonia and their passion for a bespoke build that was well thought out. In this video Richard talks to Rick about his latest design and shows him around the van.
    Hi We're Rick, Heather & our dog Poppy and we travel the U.K in our S&L Apollo camper van “Athena”
    We film the places we visit as our own diary, these videos are meant as a little memento for us but we're happy to share them with you if you want to watch.
    We're just an ordinary couple in our 50's filming our adventures with basic equipment so don't expect loads of flash camera action and super editing with great music.
    We also film videos of work we have done on our van as well as van reviews for our reference of the next van we might buy. Occasionally there are hints & tips videos too. We do basic site and area reviews including if they’re dog friendly but they’re a guide only based on our opinions which may or may not help you make an informed decision on if you’d like the place.
    We do a mix of off grid camping, pub stopovers plus real campsites too, hopefully something for everyone to enjoy!
    Please leave us a comment on the videos, we love reading them and reply to each one.
    We try to upload once a week so please consider subscribing to see our travels, it’s free and will really help us.
    Thanks for watching!

    Great video Rick I really like the design of this one it’s a great alternative to the VW and looks well thought out great to see a real enthusiast who believe in his product

      Yep that’s what I thought so was happy to let him show us through it 👍

    Lovely camper, liked the bit near the end where his wife sticks her head in and say "hurry up"😂

    Really like this van as it would be ideal for the family to ‘borrow’ from time to time or to take the grandkids plus useful as a daily drive as you said. Food for thought, thanks Rick 🙂

      It’s definitely something I’d like if we ever went back to a small van, I’ve had vw’s and other than badge snobbery this is miles better than a transporter layout 👍

    Finally a van that could almost tempt me away from my old Duetto - very well thought out.

    What a lovely van. It’s layout is very similar to what we’ve got. Thank you for showing us around. Take care Gill

      Yep I really liked it hence the video, Richard talking us round it seemed a fresh approach and his enthusiasm was evident, I think these types of companies are better to deal with 👍

    Great van, so well designed. Wish I’d that insight before building my van.

    • @RickandHeather
      @RickandHeather  หลายเดือนก่อน

      Yep, he definitely knows his stuff I think 👍

    Looks a really good and useful van and the guy seems passionate about his products

    • @RickandHeather
      @RickandHeather  29 วันที่ผ่านมา +1

      Agreed, hence me believing it deserved a full video with Richard talking us through 👍

    Nice one some very good features for a smaller van.😊

    • @RickandHeather
      @RickandHeather  หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      I thought so hence me asking Richard for a look round rather then me just filming it as part of a video, I think it makes a great stand alone 👍

    Great van Rick. And video
    One thing to mention. Which you didn't use example of
    It would also be very good for single people. Which I am
    I belong to 3 clubs specifically for singles. Who have list there wives./husbands
    Theres 990 in 1 group
    300 another
    280 another. And of course there'll be thousands that don't belong to any group or club
    Its given me food for thought for myself
    I have a Renault trafic 2019 lwb premier edition van. I've converted myself
    But that van is exactly the same length
    Mmmm
    Great video

      Thanks 🙏 yep great video and perfect for singles too yes, could leave a bed up as a sofa too I guess 😊

    Looks well screwed together and doesn't appear to have acres of carpeted walls. The RIB beds are very good, we had a double in our T6 which I fitted before the conversion. The company who did the conversion for us were impressed by the RIB quality. Cheers K.

      I was definitely impressed with his build and also he actually uses them too as he’s a family camper, you can see that in some ideas I think
