    I've gone off vinyl plank flooring in vans because vans get so hot in the summer and so cold in the winter, it eventually opens up the joints.

    I don't mind the longer video, the more the better I would say. Floor is looking great, so are the seat bases. Are you going to reupholster the seats? Or only Ella's seat as it stands out a lot against the other two?

    • @life_uncharted

    Hi Adrian, Straight off😂 I d say I prefer 30 min+ ….the more video ‘s the better in a week ;also I like the promo stuff separately which your doing already. ( or daily shorts of 15 mins say 🤔🤷🏻‍♀️) . I recon we all would like to see more of you & your build /adventure. Floor is grt a little dark BUT you would need it because it’s a high traffic area. Don’t let people sideline you & delay the fit out of your new home ….I would gladly watch you daily. 🗣️🗣️🤔ITS END OF OCTOBER GET ON WITH IT ,SAVE YOU IN RENT. 👍🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿👋

    • @life_uncharted
      @life_uncharted  3 місяці тому +1

      Interesting question. I always wanted something bigger like a Luton for the 3 of us. But I wouldn't have space to convert it. Then I was also restricted by parking at the kids grandmas in France where we will be spending a bit of time. So the answer is yes I've often thought it would be nice. But sadly not practical this time around 👍😁

    When it comes to van build vids..I’m happy with 1min or even an hour👍🏼 if you’re showing good details and relevant stuff..and not filling with waffle the time is irrelevant to me bud 😊
    Kinda transforms it straight away with that floor👍🏼 looks great ..albeit very heavy!
    Any reason you didn’t go for a 5 ton van to begin with as I “assume” from the grey beard like mine!ha you passed your test pre 97

    • @life_uncharted
      @life_uncharted  2 місяці тому

      Ha ha. Yep the beard gives it away🤦. I do have the licence but unfortunately was not aware of how much weight I would be adding to the van. In hindsight I probably should have. But I was also restricted by size as I knew I'd have to build it on a driveway I share with my neighbour and I will also have to park it at grandma's house in France. Oh well. I'll up plate it and I have airbags to up the suspension 👍😁

    Love the new intro, enjoyed the vid. I dont know if its me but i struggle watching anything over 30 mins, if its longer than 30 mins i usually wont watch? I haven't watched a film in years as they are too long, i dont watch TV my only thing i watch is UA-cam i struggle with watching long vids well tbh i dont watch them. its nothing personal i just have a short attention span, but im ok up to about 30 mins
