Excellent job! Making up your bed every night on a long trip is a total pain. Hence I'm currently building my L3H2 Ducato. The bed is always available for an afternoon nap.
You wouldn't believe but I always thought that I wanted something nice and easy with free space.. And I saw the exact layout I had in mind in this vehicle.. I loved it.. 💙 Favourited it already and subscribed. :)
Hello DantheMan I love your videos very well made and you are a professional 👍 Can I ask where do you buy materials as I like the corner mouldings on the furniture board and also how do you make your seating and matching driving seating ? Do you outsource this ?
The mouldings are from a company called laminated products but you have to buy about 500 lengths minimum in order to get them. As for the upholstery I use NC Interiors in Bolton. He trims the front seats to match the rear seats so everything matches. Hope this all helps and many thanks for watching 👍
I never understand in most conversions when there is a 4 stove ringed burner top.. Yet you couldn't use all 4 at once being as though 2 of them would need the handles over the other 2 burners as the wall is too close......
Wendy Kelly You’re so right, even three is a problem sometimes. And whats the point? How many do you want to feed in a van? An army? Two burners are more than enough. Can anybody really claim that even at their own home they do cook and supervise 4 pots simultaneously? These people have never entered a kitchen before...
Gorgeous! However, the dog area - how dare those people put the dog back there - the dog should be riding in the passenger seat at the very least! 😁. You did a beautiful job! I wish I could afford you.
That is almost perfect. Just needs solar panels and it is exactly what I would like. How much do you charge roughly for a similar conversion? Well done.
I like what you have done but the wood is all the same and just looks like a caravan interior, I like the rustic ness when you see people’s own van makeovers, I’d like it done professionally but more choice on the finnishes.
Oh my goodness-this is absolutely stunning! I am used to our American DIY conversions-more homemade and not quite as neat and tidy as this one! Some fantastic ideas-great use of space. Question-how much fresh water is available onboard if the customer would want to go boondocking? I don't recall discussion of gray water tanks either.
Mary Anne Brown sorry about that i didnt mention the water at all. yes there is both fresh and waste water tanks onboard and they are mounted under the van. the fresh tank will hold about 60 to 70 litres if my memory is right. many thanks for watching
Hi Dan I'm looking to put a Seitz 900x500 sliding window in a Peugeot boxer sliding door do I have to any thing about the curve in the panel or will it pull up flush also do you have link to your eBay shop can't seem to find it typed in as it say on your website but no luck . thanks
britironjon Hi sorry for the delay in replying, for the window frames they need to be at least 25mm thick in order to create a proper seal on the window. The only problem with a panel van is the curve like you say, but you need to keep the shape of the panel or the window will distort the metal so shape the timber to the panel first then measure 25mm at the top and at the bottom of the cut out on the timber and draw a straight line because the inner frame of the window has to be straight or the blinds wont work properly. The outside of the window will pull to the shape of the vehicle when fitting but the inner frame has to be straight. I hope this helps and if you need anymore help please let me know and i will do what i can. Many thanks for watching
I dont deal with the pricing side of things i am primarily on the build side but a conversion of this size would probably start around 16 to 17 thousand but also depends on what specification you have as well. If you would like a more detailed quote please email the office for more details. nuventureunit2@aol.com Many thanks for watching.
mikeee6 hi Mike we can convert a customers own vehicle or we can source a vehicle whether it be new or used depending on your budjet. If my memory is right i think this conversion was about £19,000. hope this helps Mike.
I'm just curious, where are you based? Because I have a design and I have started looking for conversion companies that would be able to follow my design well once I've chosen and bought my van (still deciding on which van would best suit it)
A Little Antidote hi the company is called Nu Venture Motorhomes and we are based in Wigan. the telephone number is 01942 494090. if you need anymore help or advise please dont hesitate to ask. thank you
A Little Antidote i havent had many dealings personally myself with export but if you contact the office they will be able to advise better on this. many thanks

Hiya mate, not heard from you in awhile, hope your all OK? We are all awaiting your return 😂
Nice van. It’s brilliant
Wow !!! Way- to- go.... Very cool !!!
Excellent job well done.
Edward Hill
Thank you very much
Love the design, especailly the 2 single or double bed. i'd have the shower unit facing forward.
lovely conversion....
Paul David
thank you Paul
Excellent space utilization.
Would help to have a price in the video of what the work you did cost. Great video though and workmanship in the van.
I think the shower/ washroom may be too big for a van but the remainder of the layout and use of materials is very professional.
South Hill Farm
thank you for your nice comments
very nice. similar to the layout that i want which i've only seen in the uk (shire conversions). haven't seen any builds like this in the us.
Angelica
Thanks Angelica

I think upper bed was missing over all is good 5/4
Very nice wisk that you live around where I live would higher you to do mine

I love these English layouts. Much more interesting than the German. :)
Hi Dan could you fit my windows only to my L3H2 Boxer not sure what windows yet,
Hi Stephen, yes we can do that for you, just let us know what kind of windows your wanting and if your supplying them or us. Speak soon. Dan
I like what you have done but the wood is all the same and just looks like a caravan interior, I like the rustic ness when you see people’s own van makeovers, I’d like it done professionally but more choice on the finnishes.
Nice done sir! Can you tell mi sliding door window dimension? Thank you.
You can fit many different sizes but i think this one was 900x450mm.

How much does a professional conversion like that actually cost

Hi, how much would something like this cost?
Also do you just fit the conversion to a customers van, or can you source the van too?
mikeee6
hi Mike we can convert a customers own vehicle or we can source a vehicle whether it be new or used depending on your budjet. If my memory is right i think this conversion was about £19,000. hope this helps Mike.
mikeee6 ,
Does that price include the cost of the vehicle?
lol. no.
Nice job, but you can get the same conversion in Poland for around 4000 pounds.
is it the L4H2 version?
Jana Ebert
no Jana it is the L3 H2 model
Hard to get a real feel for the van when you look at each thing so close up, rather than a wide shot.
At the time the camera I had wasn't much good but I've upgraded since.
Many thanks for watching
I'm just curious, where are you based?
Because I have a design and I have started looking for conversion companies that would be able to follow my design well once I've chosen and bought my van (still deciding on which van would best suit it)

Least tell us what it all cost when you do this, that must cost more than buying a new one.
