I agree with those about your great use of space - I especially like how you have a hideaway shower and toilet to keep the space available when they are not in use 🙂
I like the shower set up ! I'm kiting out a sprinter . Gonna try to keep the weight to a minimum so looking at avoiding all the ply and ready made units
Pretty thoughtful build! Fullsize kitchen counters for sure. Love that you have all your needs covered pretty well. I also love hearing your manner of speaking, vocabulary and all. Nice channel!
Firstly, love the video ( easy going, no nonsense, not trying to be something your not!!) came across the channel by accident, and so glad i did! I too have had a vivaro (LWB) as my first camper, enjoyed but need more space / scope. Sold last month after 4 years, and i am on the hunt for a MWB Crafter!!! Love your layout!, will be watching all your videos over the next couple of weeks, thanks so much for taking the time to post.
Exactly. It's a really practical, well designed, solid build. I've seen ridiculously over priced, over built campers, that are not half as well designed as yours.
Most succinct clearly presented no nonsense video and van build/tour and UK yay. Looking to move the tiny circle sink to the door. Where did you get the countertops please? Do you have video on that build please. Will keep my water tank underneath the big square sink from BQ. The shower set up is very innovative. Like the use of entrance for shoe holder 👍
WELL Thought out Build. You Guys utilized space very well. Loved Your FULL fridge (Beers😛). Keep Us going with videos of Your travels. I wanna go. MANY BLESSINGS !
Wow, fantastic down to earth and realistic, plus I think you from Essex which is always a bonus, just found your video channel today I subscribed and hit the Bell button,
Thankyou so for showing me around your lovely new van home loved your cooker and your shower and toilet 🚽 well done some the homes do have a toilet in there van home the 3 things I look for is the bed and a good cooker and the two plus are a toilet 🚽 and a shower well done now enjoy your self
Lovely couple, lovely job, lots of good ideas and a nice finish, my only question is about the exhaust for the diesel heater, is it okay to have the exhaust go into the van and not to the outside via a vent? The exhaust is under where you sleep so it made me wonder. Cheers and happy travels.
Great job. We want to do mwb Crafter so it's great to see how you've utilised the space. Much is close to what i have in my head. We'd have to rethink the fridge placement as that's where we'd "kennel" the dogs. Thanks for sharing 👍🏼
I love your conversion! I'm looking at exact same model, colour and size to convert. I assume yours is a MWB Sprinter? I'm hoping to have my double/queen size bed the other way around though and to fold or slide to a single. My main intention is a shower/toilet in corner behind driver seat. Your sink cabinet is brilliant!
I am so inspired!!! Thank you ! I hope you don't mind I may copy this layout it's perfect. How do you get hot water as I'm picking up the same age sprinter this weekend! Mwb
This is a beautiful build I love all of it and your dog plus you as a couple .you're so well organised neat and tidy.....happy travelling stay safe and happy..... 🎄🐕🚘🦴👍..Jan from down Under
8:35 Not sure if you had compared, or read reviews on the different computer fans (as to which is most silent), but if I may ask, what brand are those? A link would be beautiful, along with your review of them.
Hiya, no didn't really compare to be honest, Ben bought them based on the size of the space he had to play with. We've found these fans to be really good, they're silent and use very little electric so get a thumbs up 👍 There is a link to these fans in the video description If you'd like to check them out.
Really enjoyed your video and very thoughtful layout was length is the van and do you have the dimensions of the shower which is brilliant I am thinking of a mwb for my conversion either ducato. Or transit cheers 👍
Love this build hoping mine will be similar, but i have the the low roof version little less storage but can't wait to hit the road definitely gained a new follower ☺️
Hi, sorry but we're not too sure what you're asking. The gas bottle in the van's garage is connected to the oven via a copper pipe, if that's what you're referring to 🤷♀️
Clever shower design.
I've seen many van tours, but I think you have made the best use of space of any of them. Well done!
Love the video. Will be definitely putting in a shower like yours in my build. Would appreciate a link for where you purchased the shower tray.
Oh wow I really like this build great option for the shower
I’m so glad someone finally put in a splash guard by the bed.
Thanks for tour, brilliant built van. I love your shower/ toilet
I love the fact that there is a shower and a toilet. Nicely built. Love it!
Thankyou, we really wanted to incorporate both into the van and thankfully Ben managed to pull it off 👍 we're glad you liked it.
The fact that it's small yet looks comfy and wonderful is amazing! I will this in a camper van when I grow up
I agree with those about your great use of space - I especially like how you have a hideaway shower and toilet to keep the space available when they are not in use 🙂
I always love the hidden shower concept!
Great Van conversion, great couple..... have a lovely life. cheers
Wow. That’s beautiful design. Let’s of inspiration.
Great van. It's really very well designed, and spacious looking. Thanks for sharing your ingenuity.
I like the shower set up !

I love to cook, so as near to a full-size kitchen as possible was important! Thank you for watching, we're glad you enjoyed the video 😊
Seeing your shower/toilet design has made me realise that I don't need a LWB. Great vid. Thanks :)
Thanks for video. You have built a great van there. Love the shower and using computer fans. Very clever ideas.
Thank you!
I just aquired the same van. Lots of inspiration from your van. Love it

For me the best van tour iv seen , got a mwb sprinter so spot on love it
Thankyou Matthew!
Brilliant build all the way around! Awesome bathroom /shower set up.....love the out takes/ bloopers at the end! Lovely couple! 😊❤️
Thank you! We've always got lots of bloopers 🤣
Amazing build! You’ve thought of everything! Well done, guys.
Thank you! There was alot we wanted to incorporate into this build and I think we've covered most things 😂
Exactly. It's a really practical, well designed, solid build. I've seen ridiculously over priced, over built campers, that are not half as well designed as yours.

from across the pond.....Nice Job indeed
thats an awesomely practical build. so many good ideas and so well built
Excellent build. Proper oven and sink in the kitchen and very smart idea for the shower. You should be proud of your work and happy travels 👍👍
Thank you, I love to cook so a proper oven was essential in this build! Thanks for watching 👍
This van is exactly what I want, its ace. Im hoping to go full time and sell my house so I hope I can do it this good!
Hi, great video and conversion. One thing I missed was how you heat the water for the shower.
Love this shower and toilet idea. Where did you find the shower tray?
Ben found it on EBay for cheap, infact it was the first thing he bought for the conversion, even bought it before he got the van!
@@Thecampervanlife Thank you.
Great video guys. Great content. Now going to catch up on the others. Cant wait to get out touring again. Love your dog.
Thank you! 👍
This is a small van but he e everything. Well done 👏
Looking good can’t wait to see next episode
So many genius space saving ideas!! Love! That shower though 👌
Thank you Fiona 😊
WELL Thought out Build. You Guys utilized space very well. Loved Your FULL fridge (Beers😛). Keep Us going with videos of Your travels. I wanna go. MANY BLESSINGS !
Thankyou! Always gotta have cold beers at the ready 😆
The hidden shower is so good 😍
So impressed with your shower!
This is a brilliant design. I keep changing my mind what to do with ours, but this looks like a well thought out design, keeping it open plan.
it's a lovely build..amazing amount of space considering it's only a mwb..well done
Thank you! A lot has been squeezed in 😆
pardoned. Very nice conversion, definitely a thumbs up 👍
Wow, fantastic down to earth and realistic, plus I think you from Essex which is always a bonus, just found your video channel today I subscribed and hit the Bell button,
Hi, thankyou for subscribing we're glad you enjoyed the video! We are from Essex, are our accents that obvious? 🤣
What a lovely van conversion!
Thankyou so for showing me around your lovely new van home loved your cooker and your shower and toilet 🚽 well done some the homes do have a toilet in there van home the 3 things I look for is the bed and a good cooker and the two plus are a toilet 🚽 and a shower well done now enjoy your self
Thankyou for watching John! A good bed, cooker & a toilet were definitely our 3 must haves, the shower is an added bonus 👌 glad you enjoyed the video!
This is a beautiful van, so much worktop space!
Thankyou 👌
this is well thought out! people usually go for a transporter but this is a much better option clearly! well done guys. I love it
Very well thort out
Thanks for the insight into your traveling world. Some brilliant ideas there - well done. Lots for me to think about for my dream build.
No problem and thankyou, we're glad it's given you some inspiration. Good luck with your build!
Lovely van volley couple ❤

Great job.
We want to do mwb Crafter so it's great to see how you've utilised the space. Much is close to what i have in my head. We'd have to rethink the fridge placement as that's where we'd "kennel" the dogs.
Thanks for sharing 👍🏼
Thankyou, we thought about a 'kennel' but no idea where we'd have put it! Good luck with your build When you do it 👍
Subscribed!
We’re thinking of swapping our van for a similar one to yours and this layout really works for us.
Great job 👌🏼
Wow do you have more about how you did the shower??
We may do a more in-depth video on the shower setup 👍
Hi guys wonderful van just wondering what stain u used for yr roof
I love the sink area and the stove!
Thankyou!
Very nice, well planned out. ☺️
Thankyou!
Very nice too. I am considering one of those vans. But there is no way I have the skills you have tomake it like yours.I like the layout though.
I really like this setup. Gave me lots of ideas
Thankyou, we're glad it gave you some inspiration 👍
I love your conversion! I'm looking at exact same model, colour and size to convert. I assume yours is a MWB Sprinter? I'm hoping to have my double/queen size bed the other way around though and to fold or slide to a single. My main intention is a shower/toilet in corner behind driver seat. Your sink cabinet is brilliant!
Thanks for sharing. Some good ideas in there. Enjoy your travels. 🤙🏼
Thankyou 👍
Some great innovative ideas in this build 👌🏼
Full kit kitchen with lots of work space but fridge only has the bare essentials: beer 😂😊
Wow best self built van i seen.😁
How kind, thank you 😊
Awesome conversion. Is it an L1HL?
A great layout, I love it!
Thank you!
Love your van, so well thought out. 👍
All very neat
Amazing!!!!
Amazing kitchen in the van, awesome build, you have more counter space than I do in my kitchen in my mobile home.
Thankyou, yeah the kitchen was important to us and Ben has done really well to maximise the amount of worktop in the van!
Cool van! What is the size of that shower pan? Thanks.
Wee funnel is an amazing idea!
It's a must have!
I am so inspired!!! Thank you ! I hope you don't mind I may copy this layout it's perfect. How do you get hot water as I'm picking up the same age sprinter this weekend! Mwb
Hi, very nice built! Congrats
Great van-enjoy!
Brilliant

That's so kind of you to say, thankyou Jan 😊 you stay safe too!
Great job 👏 subscribed and going to binge watch your videos tomorrow so I’m up to date. Keep up the good work
Thanks Dylan! Hope you enjoy the rest of the videos 😊
Very very nice build.
Thank you 👍
Really nice job. Some great ideas thanks. Jon 👍🦊
Thankyou Jon! 👍
Bloody brilliant van thanks for the look around.,even though the boot excited me the most but that's a man thing isn't it lol
Great job! Was wondering if it is high roof?
Thank you. It's a high roof but not an extra high roof!

Oh! Thank you! I must have overlooked that when I checked for the link previously. Thank you for your reply.
Good build 👍 looking forward to your travels .
very nice van, looks good
Thank you Alan 👍
A really clever and well planned out build - do you have a waste water tank somewhere?
Thank you! Yes we do, it's under the van 🙂
Really enjoyed your video and very thoughtful layout was length is the van and do you have the dimensions of the shower which is brilliant I am thinking of a mwb for my conversion either ducato. Or transit cheers 👍
Thanks for the tour, Do the tires rub on full lock ?
Yes they do, you have to modify the arch liner.
@@Thecampervanlife As in cut it back a bit? can you send a photo please?
Love this build hoping mine will be similar, but i have the the low roof version little less storage but can't wait to hit the road definitely gained a new follower ☺️
Hi Dom, thanks for following along! Good luck with your build, hopefully you'll get to enjoy many adventures with it soon 🤞
Great looking van,
I like the way you have it laid out,plenty storage etc
Did you build it yourselves?
Top job👍
Thank you! Yes we built it ourselves ... Well, Ben built it & I watched 😁
Hi guys you’ve got two solar strips would it be better with more and would it save more money also Wi-Fi what do you use thankyou
Hi Again , how did you modify the wheel arch so the tires didn't rub on full lock?
Beautiful van. Thank you for showing it 🙏
Thankyou, you're welcome. We're glad you liked it 👍
Your van looks ace, you’ve done a great job
Thank you very much!
what year were th cmax seats from ? i have an 09 crafter id like to do this to plus a link to the passenger swivel if possible please
Lovely conversion. In the garage area is that the diesel heater exhaust?
Thankyou! No not the exhaust, it's one of two vents. We have one in the garage to prevent mould growth under the bed 👍
@@Thecampervanlife ah excellent, makes perfect sense now. I was thinking it can’t be the exhaust ha ha
Very nice van.
Thankyou! 👍
Where did you find your information for the gas hookups to have it so far away
Hi, sorry but we're not too sure what you're asking. The gas bottle in the van's garage is connected to the oven via a copper pipe, if that's what you're referring to 🤷♀️
Great build , how much did it cost ?
Good question, we have got to do the sums and we will do a video in the future about this 👍
I Love it 💖💖 its super fun it’s a wonderful experience thank you for sharing 💖
Thank you for watching! 👍
Cracking van guys ✌
Thank you so much 👍
What height is the mwb crafter please ?
Hi guys, Irish guy watching from Germany… love this van just wanted to know is it a h2 l2 van… want to judge the size as we are a family of 4
