    Great conversion! Love the rear blinds, very clever. I'm in the middle of my own small van conversion and your videos have given me some inspiration. Go Banksy!!!

      Thank you so much! I don’t have a grey Water tank, I just have a drop out pipe and if I’m somewhere that I need to collect I have a collapsible bucket that I put under the van 😁

    I really like what you’ve done bud. As I told you before, I recently got the T5… was actually my Dads from new. It’s only a low top swb so not too different from the space you have. I’m struggling a bit with the fuel difference from my little car camper lol. This is a 2.5 Auto… juicy!
    The way you’ve done your caddy is how I’d like this ultimately… I’ll keep you posted! I’m on instagram where you’ll get glimpses of the van. Take care mucker 🤘

    Just a suggestion - perhaps swap out the food pantry for the loo. That way you can access it when the bed is down otherwise it may be inconvenient when REALLY needing to go. Otherwise it's all fantastic, something we would like to do in the next few years.

    • @BanksyTravels
      @BanksyTravels  Рік тому

      Fortunately there is just enough room to use the toilet when the bed is out 😅 I would definitely recommend giving it a go, buying a van to convert was the best decision I’ve ever made 😁

    Great little camper, there is a lot to be said about this smaller type of van.
    I noticed that you have the same small Calor gas bottle, Calor have discontinued this size of bottle so when you take it for a refill you will get the next size up which might cause an issue with your cupboard. I’m planning on switching to Camping Gaz bottles as they are smaller.

    • @BanksyTravels
      @BanksyTravels  Рік тому +2

      Thank you very much 😁 My dad has a transporter and found out about Calor stopping the smaller bottle as we were converting the caddy so we were very lucky there. I’ve tried the bigger size, it’s a bit of a squeeze but it just about fits in fortunately 😅

    I found another person on youtube to watch! 😂 Vans looking good too! I'm hoping to do the same at some point in the future, I have a roof tent on my car to travel in for now but the caddy size van looks enough for solo travelling which is what I'd be doing

    I saw 2-3 videos of you… Did you already count the number of time you say "cupboard"? 😂 BTW, I didn't recognize that "sound" as cupboard (thanks to auto-generated subtitles) but phonetically as something like [cov•it] (as a native French speaker, listening in 2x speed).
