DIY CAMPERVAN CONVERSION (TIME LAPSE) UK VAN TOUR! PEUGEOT BOXER VAN TO CAMPERVAN BUILD
Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары
Our DIY campervan conversion, three months of work in 6 minutes. We bought empty Peugeot Boxer van to convert into a fully functioning campervan!
Lockdown left us with a lot of spare time, so what else to do than convert a van to a camper van!
With no idea where to start we learned how to wire up the electrics, plumb a small kitchen and a lot about carpentry. After a lot of hard work and perseverance, we are finally ready for a summer road trip!
We hope you enjoy our time lapse and van tour, let us know what you think!

This is exactly what I want, looks brilliant. Starting ours next week when I'm off work finally. Hoping that being a professional joiner and having a van for of tools will be an advantage.

Nice work but they have made the mistake a lot of people make is that they should have painted the wooden tongue and groove before it was put up. By painting it in position then when the wood shrinks, which it will, the bare wood will show especially if painted in a dark colour.

Potentially, something we have thought about! We may change the layout this summer and may do a video on this at that time :) !
Really nice work! You going to do a van tour video? It would be nice to get a better look at it. People say it's best to make sure there's holes under your mattress so it can dry out/breathe. 👍🏼

Lovely video mate! Really good! Enjoyed how you showed every step of the way! I’m thinking about getting one myself I currently have a Vauxhall vivaro. With a fixed bed but the bed width ways is to short as I’m 6ft 2 what’s the finished measurement of the bed length once you’ve got the mattress on and ply’d the walls out etc. from one side to the opposite as mine currently is 5ft I think. Obviously I need longer.

hi, the build looks epic. was wondering how long the wheelbase is. thx : )

Hi, we popped to out local scrap yard to see if they had any of its kind, and there was a retired camper with a perfectly good clean sliding window, so we saved it for £30

@@TravelEpisodes Beautiful campervan, however, you made a mistake not to install a vapor barrier. If you use the van when it is cold outside, condensation will form on the car body. You need to know about it and control it. In addition, you will also have mold under the mattress. The plate must be openwork.
👍

Wow Superb!. Watched it twice. Was that a shower room with the vented doors? Do you get much roof condensation? Can you get side windows that open? Thanks

Thanks so much! No just a toilet room, decided against a shower ash it used too much water! No roof condensation as of yet and the side windows don't open, we went for the cheaper option! Maybe next time we will get opening ones! :)
