After editing & uploading this, Mitch realised he said Unistrut for the shower, 3 times!! What he actually meant was conduit. Sorry, we (cough, Mitch) didn't pick up on this sooner!! We hope you enjoyed having a look around our home! Any questions, leave them below!🚐❤

The shower is a fantastic use of space and when Mitch said you guys built a two inch elevation in the floor to accommodate it, I was thinking, "I hope they didn't go all the way to the rear doors..." When Mitch provided the tour of your garage, he said he had mistakenly done just that. I guessed he was kicking himself over it because of that 2" loss in the garage height. Don't let that bug you, Mitch...you two did an AMAZING job on the design and build. Anyone who's customized a van before has also made that type and other miscalculations. You should be extremely proud of the excellent result and not spend another minute thinking about it.

wow, thank you so much for the kind comment. Mitch still kicks himself about it now but he's such a perfectionist. We are super proud of the build as I still remember the first day we started and thinking that we were wayyy in over our heads so it's nice to be out the otherside and be able to show the van off! @@levt2156

Absolutely totally adore your build. The color scheme is so sharp and makes the van look homey and sophisticated. Love the hidden shower and the loo (toilet). Although I might lnow what you call a toilet what had me at a total loss was when you mentioned the cost. I even tried to Google the conversion but I don't think it worked. Safe travels and adventures and TFS.

I have watched literally hundreds of van videos. Never saw a wee pipe before, and it's pure genius, as is the shower. Well done.

I think it started with Eamon and Bec who I've watch for years. People slowly have been adding it since

Brilliant. Love the urinal. Very practical. Mug of water to sluice it through and happy days. The only niggle for me would be that there's no access from the cab to the back via the bulkhead. Point being is that if a bunch of unsavory people have surrounded your van then you'd have to get out of the van to greet them before driving off. For security reasons I wouldn't like that experience, so I'd have to have internal access to the driving seat, even if climbing over the headrests was the only option. Hope you have a fab time in your van, excellent job for a first build, and well thought out.

Great to see a UK van conversion for a change! Looks fab, well done guys!

Like the layout a LOT! Thanks for sharing x

For the shower, it would be nice if you could keep the black curtain frame together, then take it off and place it in the floor pan so you don't have to do as much setup each time! The curtain wouldn't need time to dry and it would be in the center of the drain pan. Maybe use 20-10 gauge metal wire to reduce its size to fit, like an old coat hangers, or an elastic cord? For the outside shower, I would use a magnet with a hook to hold the shower head. For the bikes, is there anything under the 2" where the handles are? If not i would cut a notch for them to sit in, you could probably use an oscillating chisel. Wicked build, great use of space! Happy travels, cheers ^-^ 🍻

Superb van tour. Very well explained including your logic on why you did things in a certain way. In my opinion, the workmanship is much better than some professional builds I have seen.

This is BRILLIANT. A shower and toilet are non negotiables for me. I want this exact van!

Very well thought out layout! I've got a similar shower setup and I second the "urinal" hookup, that was a must for myself. I did add a "yellow" water tank as I was in cities a lot.

That layout looks perfect. What a beautiful home you’ve created for yourselves ❤

I've watched a lot of the van builds/tours and yours is really right up there at the top. I wondered about the desk area when you were building, but it works out well for you. Your shower is better than the "other one" you talked about:) And wow! You did that with such a small budget and no carpentry experience. Great job! Really just brilliant.

Excellent layout and build and the price is right on! People are paying $200k and up and there's no need. So many good features, but that shower is genius!! I personally would just leave the shower rails on the roof, nice accent piece. Well done, very well done and thank you for sharing.

It's different, clever layout and spacious feeling. Your shower system idea was good and clean

Lovely van build. No rent and no mortgage, makes lots of sense. Greetings from Jamaica.

Love the layout... beautiful too and the extra bed is such a plus. Re the shower: If you had strong magnets on the ceiling and a metal ring, you could zip tie the shower curtain to the ring and raise and lower it in one movement. Or if you had metal plates on the ceiling, you could zip tie the shower curtain to magnets with rings and then attach them to the plates on the ceiling. Either scheme would save you a lot of set up.

Things I want, if I lived in a van: #1. 1000 watt microwave. #2 Good sized freezer, for 400 frozen sandwiches, frozen vegies and frozen meat and fish. Tools, gear and a 40+ gallon water tank under the bed. #3 Ceramic wall heater. #4 200 cans of soup. #5 2500w Power Station hooked up to solar on the roof, or a SphereMotor. #6 A sponge. #7 Coffee maker and a rice cooker. #8 A good wall cabinet setup. #9 Pullout toilet under the seat. For dinner put some frozen vegies in microwave and then add soup. Next microwave a frozen sandwich. Next wet hair, add shampoo and then rinse in the sink with warm water from the microwave. Next clean body with warm sponge. Next turn on the Ceramic Wall Heater. Next, be free and happy.

That is absolutely the sweetest set up I've seen! And it's aesthetically pleasing as well. Well done!

I love those windows and the thoughtful layout. I especially appreciate all the charging ports.

It’s a really nice build, and as you say, actually very reasonable for a van conversion. It’s a very clean design but also homely and nicely styled.❤

lovely aesthetics, same layout as many other vans. I hope you pour water down the urinal after each use to neutralise it, not nice to pull up at a campsite and smell urine where others have been weeing outside, that's feral! Love the color scheme. I would never leave myself without access to the cab from inside the van though in case of emergencies. Safe travels

That's true about cab/inside access, however, those who pull 5th wheels have to get out of their trucks to access the rv, also.

Seriously jaw dropping! The thought and detail is amazing! Most people have commented on all the good stuff however that electrical setup is just fantastic! Only improvement I could come up with would be magnets in the shower curtain to keep it closed. You are very lucky to have what you have!

It's the best price, I have seen for a converted van, inspiring.

You have a wonderful job in building and your floor plan is VERY efficient (except for the raised floor in the garage ) but 99% of the van is stunning ! Thank you for sharing your home on wheels.

I ended up buying a Transporter when what I really wanted and needed was a Crafter / Man. It is a long a boring / slightly personal story which I won’t bore anyone with but my circumstances pushed me to make a less than ideal purchase. 18 months on and I am looking to sell my Dec 21 Transporter and buy a Crafter/Man or Sprinter. Your conversion is so well thought out and has so many design ideas that I have seen before but never all in the same vehicle. I want one… just need to sell my T6.1 first…

Well Done your van is fantastic you should be very proud of yourselves enjoy your adventures ❤ from Ireland

I've been binging van conversion videos for the last week or two on youtube. You guys have my favorite one by far. I love that it has everything you need. I think the kitchen being across the front is brilliant and I never see it done like that in vans. It makes it so much more like a segmented home. The extra office is great. It has a toilet and shower (with hot water!). The windows have netting for bugs. Extra bed if someone goes with you. And all the power you'll ever need. You guys did a great job and I'm going to take so many of your ideas when I make my own. Great job!

The van is gorgeous! I love the colours you used and I also love the layout. The only thing I’m not totally on board with is that there is no access to the drivers cabin in case of emergency without having to get out of the van. But I really do love your van, you both did an amazing job. Well done.

Yes this was my first thought as well. I will be installing a window where they have the "coat cabinet" and moving the stove to where they made the desk. That way I can climb in and out if I need to over the counter. lol silly but I am tiny so it will work fine for me, and give me access and an additional view to the front of the van through the kitchen slider window. Unless anyone can see why this is a bad idea, please let me know, I am new to all this getting ready for van life!

The best van conversion ever.

Liked everything except for the urinal and that’s a lot to set up every time for a shower but you got to do what you got to do. Nice job.

Beautiful layout, and I love that you utilized every square inch of space yet it still looks very roomy. Well done!

Great job and great layout. Since this type of shower is my favorite, (although I didn't implement it in my van since it is a Vivaro which is too small to have a shower inside) allow me to share one small improvement you may be interested in. I don't like the feel of a plastic curtain sticking on my body while showering and I am pretty sure that this curtain is not wide enough to avoid it. If this is the case, my solution to this problem is to make a conical curtain that will have a perimeter equal to the perimeter of the shower at the bottom but a much wider perimeter on top, so that you get enough clearance from the curtain not to ever touch it during showering. You don't even have to use conduit to secure it in place. A garden hose and four hooks will hold it in place just fine. The garden hose can have quick release connectors at the ends to connect them and form a circle. The curtain will have to have a loop on the top section to let the garden hose run through, 4 holes for the hooks will have to be opened, and 4 hooks or rings on the van ceiling to anchor the top of the curtain. The whole system will still be small enough to fit in the void under the floor. The curtain can also have velcro at the bottom to secure itself on the shower tray so you never have a leak while you shower.

My first reaction is WOW! You guys have done a brilliant job with this built. Its amazing to see the layout and how functional everything is. Great job, well done.

That is a nice layout. Does not having access to the cab ever an issue? Some this as a security issue - not being able to jump in the drivers seat and leave. Also, I missed what/where you have the fresh/grey water tanks.

Such a brilliant build. Well thought through and looks really gorgeous. Be proud.

You should be so proud of yourselves. Excellent job. I hope you really enjoy this adventure. Good luck!

What a thoughtful design with excellent results! I would not have guessed your experience level had you not mentioned it.

You guys did a great job…the shower is say just shower outside would be easier less time and more roomy but you’d give neighbors a show 😂

Cracking build guys, in the middle of doing mine so may pinch a few ideas and products. I hunted high and low for a shower tray and did not find one so settled for ourdoor shower between the open rear doors with a shower curtain across the doors, but might add an internal now. To fix garage just raise the bed, fix a bit ply using the bed support fixings lift as much as you need then re fit the hangers to that bit of ply and insert the ikea supports at the new height job done.

I love your van layout, I watch a lot of van life videos and I think your layout is one of the best I’ve seen. Happy travels ❤ (liked and subscribed 👍🏻)
