For all those people loosing their minds about the sensitivity of my microphone... I APOLOGISE! (Its a Rode Videomicro if anyone is interested) This was one of the first videos i shot during the trip and didn't really edit it at all. I was also doing it straight from my laptop speakers in the van so couldn't hear just how clear certain things sound.... ua-cam.com/video/BXYPCozJUHg/v-deo.html This is the revised version so please watch this instead before throwing your toys all over the room :)
Ash Pollard haha some people moan for the sake of it... great build! Might have missed you saying. But how much did it cost? Also what mpg does the van get now?
Sorry about my comment, did not read what your comment about the microphone
It's obvious you put a lot of thought into this...& it paid off. Your easy 3 day window would probably take a few hours now that you've figured it out😁. You should be proud of this. Most people dream of affording this type of luxury item until they are too old to enjoy it. Glad you're making it work. Safe travels.
Very nice conversion! Proud of you mate for not afraid of doing yourself many things and have your own priorities. Simple and effective solutions without wasting time and money on things you don't need. Many interesting details makes your build different from others, it's obvious you create it with your own plan and imagination. Have a many many nice trips in your creation!
Dude !
This is EXACTLY the sort of project I have had running around my head for a few years, thinking of saving to buy a cheapo (ish) van that won't conk out, yeah 100-200,000k Miles isn't too much.
But definitely build most things myself like what you have. The quality looks decent, the layout is just perfect, has shower, toilet, kettle (obviously!!), gas (lpg) and a telly!
It has it all.
You're so right about the high bed. I'm toying with putting a motorbike in the back (Harley !) and didn't know about the height, how high etc, should I get a bike trailer.... but having that high bed just answers everything!
I've got a mountain bike I was gonna design a sliding rack to put on, but like you say, if you have to build/assemble it every time you want to use it - you won't, I'm exactly the same !!!!
This is such a lightbulb video!
I'm glad I stumbled across your channel, will be watching with anticipation for the next few projects you've got.
I'm planning a Scandi holiday aswell and the van idea just made SO much sense, cost effective, practical, comfortable etc etc....
It's a no brainer.
Only question so far - is a 300w panel enough?
Or does it REALLY depend on how much sun/power the solar panel has gleaned that day?
I'm probably having the fridge always on, music or telly, and the kettle for the Tea.
I guess you can always charge the batteries when you're driving aswell can't you?
Anyway - CONGRATULATIONS mate on a fantastic job.
May have been said before - but it IS inspirational, and gives ming mongs like me the confidence to have a go for themselves.
I can't weld !
I can't plumb or gas anything....,
I'm just a driver who has a saw and a drill !!!!
Well done. Seriously.
Well done !!!!
Matt
Fabulous job! Love the build, it has everything necessary and placed perfectly!
Happy wondering!!
Great Van! Big and amazing job you’ve done! You have put so much effort to find cheap stuff and install it by yourself! Very creative! Congrats! Enjoy it!
I'm awe struck! For someone who's never done anything like this you did an amazing job!! Very well thought out and very cool design!! You obviously have some talent!! Hope you both have wonderful, safe, and memorable journeys!! 😁🚐🚐
If you had no experience when you started you have done a hell of a job , greetings from Sweden ;)
thank you very much :) Sweden is absolutely stunning!
Excellent conversion Ash, well done to a strict budget, love your re-use of stuff.
This is my favorite conversion to date! The way you maximized the space is awesome. For having no experience you did an amazing job. I kinda feel like I could do it now.... maybe.
For someone that didnt' have experience doing a van build you did a great job. Thanks for sharing.
wow! very nice! you did a great job.
Thanks a lot :)
You rocked it. Awesome job Lots of hard work.
I love this..I'm in stitches with the west mids vibe going on! Weighing up whether yo bid for one just like this so brilliant video to see what else we could potentially do..I love the tyres 🤩
good on you ! loved the down to earth approach - enjoy yourselves.
Been watching your last few videos so decided I'd start your adventure from the beginning so here we go.
Just found your channel and am starting from the beginning, looking forward to the journey 😀👍
Nice job there. As far as the mileage on your van, it's very low for one of these. I used to own one of these 35S13). I bought it new in 2003 and ran it as a courier van for 10 years. When I sold it in 2014 it had over 700,000 miles on the clock. Original engine, gearbox and back axle. I only sold it because the body was starting to rot. I'm sure you'll get many years of use out of yours.
You did a great job, van looks awesome, all the personal mods are a great touch, excellent full review as well.
Love the video...awesome just enjoy all your hard work. Thank u
Thanks a lot Joe :)
Recently subscribed and loving the channel and your "can do" attitude.
I think u have enough insulation 😉😊 Those tyres r sick 👍
Wow your video is such a help. I too am a beginner n solar panels, batteries etc seemed too daunting to diy it. You Definitely helped.
Nice and simple. Lots of no nonsense ideas. Looking forward to building one myself. Learned a lot from this. Thanks.
Glad i could help :)
Clever solution with the Velcro at the bottom of the blind by the seating, I've seen other solutions with wood or metal channels to tuck the blind into but yours is so simple anyone can do that.
You might want to turn your roof hatch around so if you accidentally drive off having forgotten to shut it the wind will close it instead of ripping it off, hope that helps. Thanks for sharing.
Excellent job mate, happy and safe adventures to you both! :)
Well thank you very much!
I use to own an Iveco box truck...you did an amazing job with this camper van. Congrats on such an awesome Rig!
thanks a lot! :)
Mate I've literally been researching this for 2 weeks had my eye on xlwb twin rear wheel specifically for conversion and superbike and somehow youtube throws this at me! Legend... Will be watching your vids more
Haha nice one 👍 I would say if you can get a twin wheel do it, then weight will be less of a concern. My van was always borderline
great set up on the van and some great ideas
Thanks Keith
I'm having a look at your older videos, since I've only stumbled across your channel relatively recently. You've come a long, long way with your videography, mate! Good on you. 👍🏽😉
Hahaha please skip this one, it's been the bane of my life 🤣🤣
@@LostInEurope i'll give jonna the link and get her to link to it on her next video.. yes, yes i'm that much of a c.. ahhaha
That's a fantastic van.
Thanks dude
Absolutely fantastic layout, very practical, I’ve just subbed so I’m looking forward to catching up on the channel content 👍🏻
Cheers Terry. Although, this didn't quite work for me and I made a few changes recently. If you scroll up a bit there's a more recent tour and you can see on the later videos the new mods I've done.
Nice conversion dude!
thanks a lot 😊
Loads of creative ideas thanks.
Well done mate impressed.
Really nice van! Well done! Just curious, what flavour of gum are you chewing in this vid? ;)
Thank you :) haha i know i know , my bad :D
Patti Vieta un
I couldn't watch it with all that gum chewing
Well done on the build though
😂😂😂😂😂
I think the red seatbelts are awesome!
one of the best diy builds ive seen wanna come to us and help with mine lol
Thanks, that's a mega truck, would absolutely love to see your build footage and pictures if you have any ....
Subscribed
unfortunately i didn't film during the build otherwise i think it would have taken 9 years instead of months lol. but i will be releasing videos in the coming weeks of how i made certain areas etc
Incredible job. Inspirational
I subscribed ! just at 17th person. I really like your van conversion. you got the shower, kitchenette thingy, bed and huge storage. You really did the most with the space, than i have ever seen.
pound for pound you did it.
I got a LWB high roof Iveco Daily 2006, bought for 5k, spent alot on mechanical repairs which you can work out here.
The total conversion was 25k, which after 700 nights has paid for itself. The actual physical / asset motor-home conversion was £12724.81.
I shall paste my whole setup, only main differences are: erecting with curtain bath tub/shower, stored under folding bed, i got 3 tanks of water (lasting 10 days for a single person dry camping), huge solar,: being totally off grid (no hook ups), grey water is undercarriage refuge tank, with tap.
Also swivel captain seats with no wall, making a dinette thing, my tip is to keep as much as possible 12 volt only.

Unlocking Freedom wow! Thanks
Very nice conversion ! What did you do for replacing the rusted out floor in he back before the conversion? Did you add additional rustproofing after the chassis rebuild? Interesting control panel for the heating and air conditioning, it is almost identical to the ones used by Ford in their Crown Victorias that were the mainstay of police cruisers in the USA about a decade ago.
Hey just found your channel. Inspiring build. Thanks for sharing.
You did a fab job , we have a iveco small van in the bathroom is a pull down sink con we take it out and use the pipe work for a shower . Yours looks really good .
thanks :) ah nice, well i thought that as there is a sink in the "kitchen" like 2 steps away i wouldn't bother putting on in the bathroom
thanks :) ah nice, well i thought that as there is a sink in the "kitchen" like 2 steps away i wouldn't bother putting on in the bathroom
Realy cool dude i like that kind off car also,! what u done with the bed is great idea for have a nice space in the back. thnx for uploading
Hi Ash. Don't know how I missed this the first time around, but seen it now. Excellent.
Some great work there. Given that my Optare Alero (that I mentioned to you yesterday) is based on an Iveco chassis and maybe the same (2.8turbo diesel) engine as yours, I'd be very interested to know a bit more about acquiring and fitting the right hand stalk so that you've now got cruise control.
Reading through the Alero manual, I've seen a reference to cruise control, so perhaps some of them DID have it, but I don't think mine does as it stands.
I was also thinking of doing the exact same thing that you've done with your LPG cylinder. i.e. the valve arrangement on top that allows a pipe to an external LPG filler. Any chance you could do a short video on that, or at least some pointers as to where you got the parts?
All very inspiring.
Regards Mark in the UK
Inspirational stuff dude. GREAT idea to make your own ceiling light that you can access the roof from: GENIUS.
Hand painting the van is a top idea too. Who says that we 'must' have them sprayed? I'll install a underfloor grey water tank for kitchen/shower and dispose as suggested. I'm going with the solar showers too, and I guess I could use some kettle-water in winter/overcast. Finally, you've convinced me to go for a rear parking camera; also handy to check if anyone suspicious behind the van. Enjoy your travels.
Hi Matthias, glad ive been able to give you a few ideas! good luck with your build dude :)
Just an idea...would u not rig up the parking camera to the tv in the bedroom? so when your parked you can check of any dodgy characters around the van..
yea its a good shout, might look at doing
that in the future
I like it. At night you can chuck a couple of cans of cat food outside on the floor, crack open a tinnie and watch feeding time at the zoo as the foxes and badgers feast. Don't forget to talk very slowly in your best David Attenborough voice. Gotta be better than regular TV.
Nice build man! Thinking of doing the same layout. I want to be able to have a motorbike in the garage.
Cheers dude, so far we have been living in it for a month and its pretty effective. I built it specifically so i could fit a sports bike in the back for future track days etc :) Have a little gpz 305 back home and that fits no problems
I like your build, i will do a similar one. Thanks for the inspiration :)
Well done lad,great bit of work,now just enjoy the freedom,I surmise that you are going to be off griding quite a bit,especially with 3 batteries for storage.Is it an mppt charge controller and what amp is it to run a 300w panel to 3 batteries...only asking as I am wondering what size panel,[poly or mono], and what size battery bank to invest in,...Steve
Thanks for this inspiring video on how to convert a LWB Iveco Daily into a really nice RV. As for me the Garage is a bit oversized and therefor the bed is a bit to high with only little clearance above, but that's the nice thing about self built campers, you can build it exactly the way you like it! Greetings from Germany!
Exactly! You can tailor it to anything you want 😊 I opted for the big garage and definitely glad I did now with all the ski gear etc!
Very good mate, well done.
Thank you dude! There's some more recent tours further up in the channel, it's changed quite a lot...
nice work with the van..are you heading out to the alps on your trip?
Hi there Ash, you have made a great job! Really nice! I'm just in the beginning of my own project, and I've got a lot of great ideas from you, thanks a lot. Im gonna try to make videos and take pictures as soon as i start working with my truck. My idea is making a expedition truck, so I've got a swedish military truck as a base to build on. Actually I'm gonna register it for the first time in a couple of weeks... Maybe we see eachother somewhere out there in the world...
Hey Johan, glad ive been able to inspire you with a few things! wow sounds like a pretty awesome project, i like the "overlander" style and tried to make mine look a little that way. Hopefully see you on the road dude :)
You can check out my second youtube channel, "coaching and adventure 4u", I'm just about to upload a video on my truck. Please subscribe. ;)
Here we go starting from the beginning.... I have honestly nothing else to do... That video u made pretty much made me start from the beginning.
Ok this is possibly the worst video to start from hahaha, please don't judge 🤣🤣
Just bought an iveco..great video
Wow you did a great job
That's a great conversion😊
Epic van build!
great vid mate. im starting converting my daily now. thanks for the inspiration!
Thanks dude and good luck with your build! There's a couple more recent tours further up in the channel, have changed a few bits.
Freakin awesome job!
Great build mate! Id love to see a video on how you made the roof hatch!
thanks a lot :) well im going to record all the following work and improvements i make to the van now so i will try and do a "how to" vid for the hatch
timothy790110 ua-cam.com/video/Nx6s95xS6Mw/v-deo.html
haha, nice stand out from all the posh 'van life' videos. A bit more realistic and achievable for those not having to live in vans. Great stuff!
great job on your van. One question: What batteries did you fit (flooded cell, AGM or GEL).
It took a lot of faith and gumption to tackle the work without any experience. Go on you.
Nice job fella 👍
Great video great build. What's the height of the bed space and garage beneath it ? Just looking around for a van and that's one of the design/ layout questions I'm struggling with. Thanks
Hi there, im not sure of the exact measurements right now but to give you an idea. both areas are, "snug" lets say. it doesn't feel claustrophobic in the bed so thats the main thing but you cant sit up straight without bending a bit, (dont need to sit up when your asleep :D)the key is to keep it light and airy, hence the white paint and double roof hatch. but there is enough room for two to sleep comfortably and then ample room underneath for two bikes with loads of space still left over.
I like your conversion and as I was thinking of getting the same van you've answered my first question.Can I put a full height shower in the van .I like the way you've made it practical and simple without spending ridiculous money as I also want to make all my own furniture.
Thanks Tony, glad you enjoyed the tour! Yea, the base van build cost about 5k all in (including the van)
I've added lots of extras since then but you can definitely get on the road for not a lot of money.
Impressive! Its amazing what people can do on there own without spending a fortune. If I were to make a complaint, it would be your videography skills. lol I was getting dizzy when you were moving around the camera.
VA2906 R thanks :) haha yea I now it's terrible.. I have made a new video on the channel that's filmed a bit more carefully
Really like your van. I want to make one similar either with the daily or citroen relay lwb. But need 2 extra beds for children and not sure how i will have extra seats and space for 4 to sleep
Jp1875 did you get to the bottom of this? Curious also, TIA
Thank you for the time and effort. Extremely helpful and useful.
As for the gum ? Seriously people you had nothing better to say to someone who bothered to share thier expertise?
Question: when would you use the 200 w LED bar?
Loved the fat tyres 😁
Hello Ash,its a fantastic job youve done on that Daily.Just wanted to ask what you used to line the walls as it's sort of shiny on the video.Is it that bathroom type panel? I'm actually in the middle of doing the same van myself,heavily insulated like yours,nearly finished the bed now which is almost exactly the way you have yours but the biggest difference is I am sticking the shower on the other side.
Cool van, good job. I would consider moving that fire extinguisher out of the "garage". You got both gas, batteries and high voltage in there. In case of fire, you won't be able to use the extinguisher. Put it either under the seats up in the driver cabin or directly inside the camper door.
Hi there, Thanks a lot! There is actually a second extinguisher up in the front cab that i forgot to show so we a covered for both sides.
Awesome build that you have done. I have one question as I'm also looking for the same model, what's the head hight inside, as I'm 6'2".
I got a furry steering wheel cover. Sooo retro but I love it. No cooked or frozen palms 😁
Thank you... You inspired me to go for it
wow, well i wish you the best of luck Raymond! Its the most rewarding thing ive ever done
great job!
Very nice job.
thanks a lot :)
2 reverse cams and still managed to hit the tree. Done a great job of van
great job mate
Amazing build! Do you mind me asking how much you spent in total to convert it? Also, how does the van drive? I've heard they are built to last?
Great job there. Love your ingenuity. The skylight is great and cheap..any leaks?
Thanks Robert! Actually the one that leaked was the one I bought 😂 but that was my own fault anyway... the hatch has held up a treat
Wish I owed this wow it's ace
Great van. I've just ordered my new extra long and 20 cube high roof. 2023 spec
wow nice! I've never seen a new one in the flesh
Going absolutely mad with the gum chewing/hearing it in your mouth...otherwise, very nice interior. One of the nicest I've seen.
I am so impressed all job you did. How much in total with the van and building it did you spend?
Hi there, well the grand total not including the oil leak labour was about £5000. van was £1000 and the rest for the conversion
Hi really enjoy your vlog mate I just recently bought a Inveco M3 2003 2.8L can you tell me where you got your clear indicator lights and tyres from? Glad you got the all clear mate good luck to you safe travels
Hi dude. indicators were just from ebay, around £30 and the tyres are kumho road venture mt51. Got them from a dealer but anywhere can order them
Welcome to Zeeland, the Netherlands! It's where I live. But I found you googling for Iveco Camper Van! I love Iveco vans, they're a pleasure to drive and I wondered if there are nice camper conversions out there. :-)
I see you stayed at Camping Betteld in Cadzand, it's a really nice area there.
Thank you, that's so cool! I love the internet 😄 need to go explore there more... I have a few more tour videos further up in the channel with plenty of changes on the van if you're interested!
Impressive for someone without any skills going in! Its got everything I'd like in my van tbh!
Great job
well done mate ... done great job ... how is the iveco like to drive and on fuel. .. . also I don't mean to be bain have you thought about buying sticker what you can put on the van .
Hi frankie homer it's pretty consistent on fuel, about 30mpg. Felt big to drive at first but you soon get used to it. What do you mean by sticker?
Very impressive , especially doing all that on a shoe string, question, I have one of these with a oil leak, i think its the rear mainseal, but not sure, where was yours located??
Thank you 👍🏻haha oh no... 🤣 yea mine was the rear crank seal but the garage I took it to were guessing and had the engine out twice! £1200 in labour for a 20 quid seal. I've heard you can do it by just dropping the gearbox though so someone who knows what they are doing could do the job much quicker.
Hi mate hope ur well just a quick question where did you get the large solar panel from and how much was it please? Thanks alot and great video and nice van mate thanks for posting
Hi Simon, I bought it as a kit from an ebay shop (photonic_universe) for around £500
Now thats a livable van!!! Mutts Nutts Ash... I have a little t4 but im coming around to getting a bigger van to travel next year .. or do i just go for a few months first and see? i just want to wild camp in comfort .. shower, bog, stand up... just the usual.
I mean, I'm pretty biased because I've got a big beast! But, I'd say go experience it for a while in your van, that will teach you how you want to build out a bigger one in the future. I started out with a Citroen dispatch... Sh***** in fields got real old, real fast 😂
mate, you should be proud of your build. You say yu arent a professional but from what i have seen you have created a really nice home from home, stop putting yourself down. My only comment would be that you really should isolate your wiring in the garage, what i mean is to put it into a fuse box just in case you get any shorts which will cause a fire.. the other thing is YOU MUST install a fire alarm.. you have a very lovely looking girlfriend so you dont want to loose her in a fire...
Hi Steve, thanks for the feedback! There actually is a fire alarm and a carbon monoxide alarm in the living space i just forgot to show them on camera :D the fire alarm is above the tv and carbon is next to the solar meter.
In regards to the wiring, yea i know it looks a bit ghetto haha! But, its all 12v and every outlet from the bus bar is individually fused and there is also an isolator between the battery/panel and also the solar/battery in case of emergency. I would like to get a proper unit to contain it all though so it doesn't look so scary but that will be a project for when i get back :)
Hey mate, nice camper. I'm proper tempted to pick up a extra long-wheeler like this for a project/home.. What was the gross weight on this after the conversion? Did it max out on the 3500kg limit for the normal license? Cheers, J.
Hi. Not sure if I’ve asked you about your welding yet but I’m interested to know what you did with the battery while welding. Did you remove the starter battery to do the job? Did you unplug the engine ECU? I’ve got the same van and need to do a little welding in the rear area of mine, wanting to know what to do about the computer of the van. Don’t want to damage any of that gear. Great vlogs mate. Keep them coming 👍😎
Hi dude, I'm pretty sure I disconnected the battery and ecu when I was doing it. Ecu is just two block connectors going into the top, takes 5 seconds to remove so better than wrecking it.
Awesome. Thanks heaps bud. So worried about damaging that ECU. I’ll unplug both terminals on battery and the 2 on top of the ECU 👍
"obviously you've got the red seatbelts' Naturally hahaha
Great video. I’ve been looking at Sprinters but the Ivecos seem like they’re proper goers. Is it easy to get parts abroad?
Hi bud, haven't really tried to get anything so far but I cant imagine it being that hard. These Van's are everywhere!
Awesome conversion man :) I'm also thinking about Iveco Daily to convert :)
thanks dude! honestly, they are built like tanks and not too expensive to buy so well worth considering. just dotn forget to check for oil leaks!!
I will do MOT test or something because if it stop working I will be fu**ed :)
and they look big enough :)
Greetings from Corby :)
thank you so much for this video, it's very inspiring! I am looking into buying, converting and traveling to Europe in 2019 so this was really cool to see, as I don't have the "fancy conversion budget" I often see into this kind of videos :) I can't wait to do it! Question about shower cabin, is it some camper standard and you just mounted in or you build it? it looks awesome!
That's awesome, wish you the best of luck with your build and hope to see you on the road one day! The shower room I just built myself, it's really simple. Pvc panels lining the walls with a cheap tray at the bottom. The curtain rail is plumbing pipe and shower head is another cheap ebay job with one pipe running to a tank.
Ash Pollard awsome! I cant wait to start my build, and yeah, if you’r still on the road next year maybe we can see in some awesome place :)
Great video. So thanks for that!. Could please tell me can you use a standard driving licence on this size of Van?. Many thanks.
Thanks James! Yes this qualifies as being under 3.5t
love it
