Hello, unfortunately I don’t have the time to produce and post more. My kid is too tall now to sleep in the front. We changed concept sleeping all three in a roof tent (Maggiolina) on top of the car. The kitchen unit is in its position, I just disassembled the bed section. This concept allows now to use the same vehicle in the L1 standard length.

Intéressant

Thanks, I am working on further videos on the conversion details. I am sure you will find some interesting suggestions there, too. Frank

Thanks for interresting videos. Are you able to open the trunk door with the bike holder attached (but lowered)? I read somewhere that this might be a problem with large trunk door of Rifter. What type of bike holdrr do you have? I am waiting for my new rifter whicb we also plan to convert.

Hello Pavel, thank you for your kind feedback. When I have the bike holder attached and lowered the pedal of the inner bike is blocking the full opening of the trunk door. If you have quick release pedals on your bikes it might work as they are smaller. The bike holder is quite old and not any more on the market. I have an extractable trailer hitch, so I just pull out the bike holder together with the trailer hitch. No wrench is needed and you can mount/dismount it in no time (if you do not forget to put some grease in the hole and cover against dust ;-). Let me know how the conversion works out and don't hesitate to contact me, there are still a lot of tips and tricks I have not been able to share for now. Copy with pride. Frank

Interesting video, thanks, looking forward to more videos from you. I am just thinking of buying Rifter or Berlingo XL. Is Rifter available with automatic gear box? I haven't found any information. Berlingo has automatic one. Why do you took diesel engine? Is petrol model not powerful enough? Other car I have been thinking is FORD Nugget.

Hello Esa, the Peugeot Rifter is the same car as Citroen Berlingo, OPEL Combo and Toyota Proace City Verso. Sure, there are minor differences in the design but to my knowledge they all come with the same identical engines. The 130HP diesel is offered also with an automatic transmission called EAT8. This diesel 130HP is a very modern engine called BlueHDi 130 classified 6d temp and thus allowed even in restricted city centers. Why Diesel? These engines simply have a higher torque and do consume less than petrol engines. 130HP are plenty for my Rifter L2 even when fully loaded. The BlueHDi 100 would have been strong enough, but when I bought the car you could not get it along with the 6 speed transmission and that is a must with a diesel (have a smaller usable RPM bandwidth). The Ford Nugget is one category bigger than the Rifter and quite expensive. Check out the VANSTER if a Rifter L2 is too small for you but you like the concept of a Camping Box. Let me know what you decided. Copy with pride. Frank

@@pimpmymini-camper5583 Thank you for great answer! I think I choose Berlingo, because the dashboard is more accessible for a short person. Rifter has everything so high up you may not be able to see the road.

Hello, could you explain me your setup to fix the bed on the insert (how did you fixe and how did you make the hook ? ). I have a standard Rifter and I want to do similar setup. Thanks for answering and great set up and videos

Hello Arnaud, thanks for your appreciation. I use 2 threaded plates (one on each side of the metal sheet with hole you find on the car), a long thread ring bolt (to connect the plates and as an eyelet for the belt tensioners) and a lock nut (to prevent the system to get loose over time). As an alternative to the long thread ring bold + lock nut you can also use a short threaded bar + an eyelet. When positioning the one threaded plate at the rear of the metal sheet you better tie it up first. Why? When trying to mount the setup the plate may slip away and disappear behind the covering. This happened to me twice, I managed to get it back from behind the covering only after an hour using strong magnets. Hope this explanation is clear enough to understand. I am thinking of posting a short video of this setup as it is quite difficult to explain in words only. Let me know if you need more info upfront. Copy with pride. Frank

Can you put down the back seats so that it makes a flat base so you can sleep in the car please?

@pimpmymini-camper5583

Hi Rick, the back seats go down nearly flat. Very comfortable that you do not have to remove them but, as said, you will not get a fully horizontal surface. The other cool thing is that also the passenger seat in the front goes down flat, so you can load very long objects inside and still travel in three. Copy with Pride. Frank

Interesting, the Driver seat can't go down as well?

yes, a real good engine that works fine with the 6 speed manual transmission. Even with the car fully loaded, with all that stuff on the roof and the bikes on the hook, I never have issues with missing power. Sometimes I really forget and drive fully loaded as if I had a sports car. And consumption is comparably low as well. I am hoping for a Rifter with a hybrid plug in but it looks like the Stellantis Group will offer only full electric :-(
