Our vintage motorhome renovation | Before and after - Part 1
This is part one of our motorhome renovation, in this video we show you what Sofia looked like before the renovation started.
We are Sarah and Lee and in July 2020 we bought our first motorhome, a 30 year old Swift Kontiki and called her Sofia.
We gave ourselves just 4 weeks to renovate the inside of Sofia, follow us and see the before and after videos.

Wow, what a great start to the transformation. All that time and effort certainly paid off. Looking forward to watching the next part while we are having our tea.

@campervan Tales thank you very much, we were really pleased with everything.
That's an amazing transformation. I have just purchased a fiat ducato kontiki 640. If mine turns out half as good I will be happy.

It's a 1990 but looking a bit sorry for itself I couldn't let it go to the breakers. Will hopefully have it delivered this week so i can get on with refurbishment. What paint did you use on interior ceiling it came up really clean? I'm hoping I can save mine if water damage isn't to extreme 🤞

@John Sherry, 1990 is the same as ours. Hope it all goes well when you get it. We used white emulsion (just normal paint) the first coat did take 10 hours as is soaks in to the hessian, so glad we did. Think it took about 3 coats in the end, will be topping it next year to keep it looking nice and fresh. Good luck
