My new glamping kit.

[quietone]

Thought I'd show off my shiny van for glamping with the missus, but I'll also use it for a sort of mobile basecamp for some longer trips into the woods and hills, overseas kayaking heaven etc. I know its not bushy, its not meant for that.

Did look like this..

Now has side, and rear windows, with all glamping opulence inside.

Envy. Nice van.

 

[mousey]

OOOOoooo

Really nice, I'd like to retire into something like that and spend my time visiting places.

 

[tom.moran]

thats very nice

Nice conversion


Sent from somewhere?

 

[Harvestman]

Very nice indeed. Does it come in olive green?

 

[quietone]

Haha.. Yeah, I did have my heart set on a brown one, but the missus coerced me into the natural grey, said it goes with my hair. We are very pleased with the conversion. Its going to get lots of use.

Nice van, I've got a T25 as a daily driver and weekend camper. See you at CamperJam

I love campervans.. I've had a T4 camper and an MB Vito Westfalia Marco Polo.... but needed a 4x4 for work and was ruining the camper so it had to go... Will get another one day.
Lovely bus mate..
Cheers

That's lovely! Be great for touring round Europe or the like .

Very nice, we also have an old T25 (one of the early aircooled ones). Do you have any plans to put a pop top on it at any point?

 

[quietone]

Yeah, pop top is going on next year if the missus gets her way. I don't think I need one, but she wants to be able to stand up when getting dressed, if the awning is not up. Vango airbeam fitted, then she can use that methinks. I can think of better ways to spend another few grand.

 

[Chilliphil]

I expect you'll also have to travel some distance to get what you want? Our T25 is 3m tall permanently so I can see where she's coming from about headroom ;-)

 

[tommy the cat]

Just bare in mind if you put on a pop top you won't ever be able to put a canoe on top.....

 

[Ecoman]

I really like that

 

[robevs73]

Same place I got my T5 from. I've had it five years from new and its been trouble free, they are pretty good on the rough stuff aswel much better than a car.

Ah, I thought the same. But you can still fit rails and bang a kayak on top as well. But it has to be a specific type of rails.
Obviously the kayak has to be removed to raise the roof though.

One maybe, but two (SOTs) bowed my reimo roof despite reimo asserting that the roof limit was 100kg.

Blimey, really ! You must have been gutted. I'll only be putting one on, its nearly 30 kilos with rudder, but I also like to fill it with gear too. So I'll make sure nothing too heavy is placed inside the hull, maybe just the c tug and nowt else just to be safe. 🙏

Mine was a lwb which may have bearing on it but no, I wasn't happy especially after forking out 500 sobs for a specialist roof rack as well. It was only a temporary bow and popped back up. As a result of my communications I believe reimo down rated the lwb roof to 75kg.
