Maximum Space for Sleeping in Vauxhall Zafira for Car Camping

So I have a Vauxhall Zafira and in this video I will be answering the car camping question that I often get asked, essentially how do you maximise sleeping space in a Vauxhall Zafira.
I've been car camping in my Zafira for over a year and I aim to car camp at least twice a month.
On my channel you'll find a whole host of car camping set up videos, as well as all the car camps I've done.
If you have any questions then please feel free to ask 😉

    Great advice. I've commented before but have been following this closely. My families had an old 2003 zafira for the best part of 15 years, they were going to scrap it but after seeing this channel, I decided to put it in my name and begin car camping in it. I bought a similar sun lounger and it fits in perfect just like in this video and is very comfortable. The foam I ordered for it was a bit thin so will use a z bed to go on top. Have the black out curtains but need to set a curtain pole up. Going to also follow the weed fabric and cardboard idea for the windows. Really looking forward to getting out there, thanks for all the videos

    If i could frame this comment I would 🙏 It genuinely makes me happy, as the tutorial side of this channel is all about people realising what they can do a with what they already have. So this is absolutely spot on 🙏🚗🥳 (Well I can’t frame it, but I can pin it🙏)

    Shame about the height, I was thinking of one of these to transport bicycles in. It'd be nice to just roll the bikes in & out without taking off wheels & saddles etc but I don't think 89cm is enough - I think it would have to be at least a metre 😞

    @@zafiracamper Funnily enough I saw another video after yours where they fully stripped it out (removing both rear rows of seats) and measured the height at over a metre, so I think if I did that they would probably fit. Of course it would then lose a lot of its utility for carrying people 🤷 one or the other I guess...

    Hi Mark- well I made my own covers for the windows (there’s a vid of that in my set up playlist). Curtain wise for the central bit, I put a retractable shower pole (had to cut fabric) in the roof and then just bought some plain blackout material and put in on the rail :) in fact I have a another video of how I black my car out :)
