    We have been watching Itchy Boots. Noraly is amazing, she is riding solo on her motorbike in Iraq at the moment, but she has been on many different adventures. She just gets on her bike and goes. Such a brave lady. Not sure if you are interested in motorbike journeys but might be worth a look.

    Great review, we bought an Auto-sleeper campervan 5 years ago and love it. High-quality, car like to drive and with a full size cooker and loo/shower room great for even longer trips. It can be parked in most town centres and can cruise at 70mph all day. We previously had a caravans and sold our large tow car and bought a smaller one and I use the campervan as a second car.

    Hi my friend, hope you are well. We have a campervan like yours but no one talks about the problem(s). We have a problem with the non-return valve for the LPG filling point. No on in UK is interested to fix them - well I have found a garage which are going to change everything since ours was made in 2012. The manufacturer recommendation is to change the system every 10-12 years and so that is what I have decided to do. However, this is a big problem in UK that not many people are willing to fix LPG problems on campervans (motorhomes?). Next time I buy all electric!!!!!

    Like others have suggested, I would try a couple of different layouts if you were thinking of going long term in the panel campervan

    I use an Ecoflow Delta Max 2 with the alternator charger as I do 2 week trips maximum. When I'm not away in the van I take it in my house and use the Powerstream and charge it up overnight on the cheap rate and then discharge it during the day to reduce my electricity bill!

    It's brilliant how you cheer people up. It's the first time i've seen a kitchen at the back of a camper although i've seen old caravans with a similar layout. Keep the van well ventilated when cooking to avoid damp. Looks great and really happy for you 🙂

  • @bigtoe333333
    @bigtoe333333 13 วันที่ผ่านมา +1

    I love that layout- when you step inside these vans with the front lounge they feel really spacious compared to other van conversions, and that's a massive plus for me personally. Down side is that I think they lose a bit on storage space, which is a problem for a full time living.
    Also if you're over five foot ten, the bed is a bit too short lengthways and you have to make up the transverse bed, which is a right pain if you just want a half hour siesta.
    The other problem is very few people convert vans to this layout, so there's not as much choice on the used market.

    I live full time in my Sprinter LWB and also have a Delta 2, fab bit of kit. Charges up from the cigarette lighter socket when I move around and then used to power my laptop and heat the leccy blanket in the eve even though I have 200amp of lithium installed.

    Darren, another great vid. I've got an EcoFlow Delta 2 with the extra battery. I connect to my 240 circuit with a short lead with a 13 amp plug at each end. Be careful which end you plug in first, but it beats putting a long lead out through the door.

    We have a hi-roof transit custom camper (Only 5m long!) and can manage a month in it as a couple, but only if the weather is good so we can live outside! Also it's got limited headroom (5'10) and the bed is only 1.9*1.2m, so no good for taller people. Suits our use though, we can convert it to a 5 seater 'car' when required. We only have a regular battery installed which i am planning to replace with lithium, and currently use an Aferiy 2000w portable to supplement it, which I also use at home.

      @Mymail-z1xMotorhome is not always the right choice, especially if being used as a daily use vehicle. I got a campervan instead of motorhome as using vehicle daily

      @@davey8914 Well obviously your also adding that to other tasks, and it's certainly a factor many obviously don't like that's commented time and time again! Last thing when your tired is wishing to make a bed.

    Another great video - many thanks. That looked like an AutoSleeper Symbol Plus you had and I have the smaller non plus which is a half a metre shorter and also an Ecoflow Delta 2. I’m interested in getting a large sleeping bag. Do you recommend the one you had and if so what make is it and where did you get it. Best wishes.

    Hi
    Thankyou for your videos which have helped me a lot. Can you please tell me which power lithium batteries you had installed at Oaktree, and also is there any difference between their batteries and Fogstar batteries? Thankyou.

    Re youtube, recently got hooked onto 'that chapter' true crime stories told by Mike an irishman. He manages to tell the stories respectfully but with added humour. I know that sounds strange, you got to watch it to understand

    Definitely a van for a weekender or short break not a full time van. You don't want to have to be making your bed up and putting it away every day.

    Considering all the net zero restrictions, as well as more and more councils putting prohibitive orders in place for overnight campervan and motorhoming, people are starting to look at the feasibility of this type of holidaying😢.
