Can’t believe you get negative comments you are showing people how you can actually achieve owning motorhome on a small budget I for one think that you & Emma are doing a brilliant job ❤keep charging forward & thank you 🙏
WhAt waS the mileage pleAse ? How is the engine ?
Yeah FairPlay you’re not getting a 2023 Motorhome for £500 unless you rent it for the weekend , that said under the bonnet this thing wants shooting, wafting paint over it covering up just adds to the problem and flogging it to a idiot is usually what happens for a earner . Ahh well
I think you two are doing a really good job on Doug. He looks fantastic
Thank you we like him 🤩
This is real life for most of us. Not everyone has 50K plus to spend on a campervan and in my eyes you don't need to be spending that much when you can have just as much fun if not more in something like Doug. Good work guys look forward to seeing whats in that safe?!
no idea about the safe buddy neils lost the key again , and your right most peope jsut cant afford the crazy prices that motorhomes have , and lets face it something like doug can be done up on a small budget
@@UrbanVanlife it's in his pocket lol
Love you 2.lots of humour. And obviously lots of love between you.
I think Emma just about copes with me David if I’m honest but defo love her for it
"searched and searched but can't find any f**ks to give" absolute class! Gonna steal that one from ya! Love the videos guys, ordinary and straightforward, keep up the great work! Oh and thank you for showing my OH how to change battery operated lights to 12v, absolute game changer 😁
Not gonna lie, enjoying this transformation. Cracking job
i have to admit we are as well
Why can't folk just be happy, it's fun seeing what you have done with doug. Thanx for tip on wicks, I didn't know they sold offcuts.
people are a strange thing , gladdly we dont get many trolls to be fair 99% of the people who watch us are bloody lovely . and yer i was shocked with wicks as well , i know b and q do it but 2 pound for 2 sheets of ply ill take that saving
@UrbanVanlife didn't know BQ did it either, not wood, they used to do damage packages, worth a trip to Chester, (our nearest).
Your doing a great job Neil and Emma on the motor home 👍👍
Thank you sir
Hi Neil and emma, really enjoying seeing you transform your new project, it’s looking great, negative nellies can do one, welcome to vanlife on the dark side, living in a motorhome.🙏👍👊🚌🏴
Keep doing what your doing , people who leave negative comments are just sad tossers who don’t have a life , keep going and enjoy yourselves
😂😂😂😂we ageee glen . Thanks buddy
Loving the direction the channel has taken, not everyone can afford mega bucks motorhomes. It just shows what can be achieved.
You guys are hilarious!
What was it about the tree and F**ks? 😂😂😂
Well done!
We love watching your videos and love the way you bounce off each other.
Carry on the with the great content 🎉
Haters are always going to hate!
arrrrrr thanks guys , we dont worry about them , the best thing they do is watch and that helps us lol , and yer we all have a tree helping us breath
2 Haloumi burgers😂 You’re having fun and I’m enjoying it too. Great work reviving the old girl (steady on Neil, I meant the van😊) and nice to see you both actively involved. Can’t wait to see what awaits in the safe🧐
This is Rick from Rayleigh in Essex. You’re doing a good job you’ve turned a turd into a gold bar. It will have more life. Keep it up doing what you do. You never know. Might see you on our travels big Rick
Amazing job,I like the expression,I do what I like and I like what I do.
❤️❤️❤️❤️
Lol some people just don't know how to have fun, you guys make me chuckle in a positive way😁
That’s a bonus thanks buddy
Hi all. I think your Doing a Great job on the Van. I have an old Talbot Express Talisman. 1992. I wish I had the ability to do the jobs I need to do on my Van. I do What I can, But I'll get Garage to do all the Mechanical work. Great videos, love to you both. Yours. Jeff & Helen.
Thanks guys and we just wing it . But we are heading to Scotland on Sunday to see if he can handle this big snow that’s coming
Im sure he will be fine. I think these older vans are better in cold weather, than newer ones, Less Electronics to go wrong. Safe travels.
Brilliant job 👏 👍
Your doing a great job. Glad your not giving any f…cks about the negative comments. Just do what you do. I’m sure you get more positive comments than negative. Keep up the great work. ❤
Thank you, for the kind words
What a fabulous job you guys are doing! Can't wait to see next remodel installment xx
Some folks are unbelievable. Screw em and their negative waves. Super job folks. I'm 62 and still learning shit from watching your channel. Can you believe that? I really need to get a life you know. 😂😂
We got your backs so keep em coming. Your doing just great!
Cheerio.
Great work you two! Not enough people appreciate how good older MoHo's can be :)
That's true! and they can suit most budgets as well you dont need to go spending thousands to havea little motorhome
My mom always told me if you can't say something nice don't say anything at all. Kindness always WINS. I love what you are doing with this it looks GREAT!
Looking good 👍. Maybe you’ll find the “no f**** left to give “ in the safe 😂.
😂😂😂😂😂😂 this is funny . Cheers kev
Properly invested in this transformation now - it's looking great so far!
Another fab video! You keep it real and if people dont like it, its their problem, not yours 👍👍
Oi what about the safe 😂😂. Loving the transformation…..I’d love a Doug!
still dont know whats in it, but we are guessing nothing
Love Doug! His transformation from being a sad, old van to a lovely home on wheels is incredible. I knew, as soon as I saw him, he was in good hands. Looking forward to the next instalment.
Take plenty of no notice of the negative nelly’s. They obviously don’t have the vision or the know how to fix something like this up. ❣️
Motorhome really is looking amazing 👍
It really is coming along , and for once it feels like it wants to be made better cos its not fighting us like out own van has been , thanks for watching deniese
I think Doug is looking very snug very quirky he’s ace ❤
are thank you buddy and we agree , hes getting there slowley
Fair play to you for breathing life back into an old classic . You are both doing a brilliant job. Love watching your vids 😊
Thank you so much 😁 there must be loads of motorhomes like this out there
Negative comments from negative people, Your both such a massive inspiration, and are helping me through 1 of the hardest loses of my life...I feel so inspired having seen your energy. Keep it up guys. Much respect from Nottingham ❤
I'll leave you a positive comment!! love what you both do, your humour and approach to the build is great entertainment, keep up the good work.
I think the van is looking beautiful , you are doing a great job. It did look like a pile of ........ but I think well worth saving.
we think so too! and man did it look a mess , but hes looking ok now
Im absolutely loving this, Listening to the KLF, watching Emma get covered in paint , bringing back a awesome old tranny kicking and screaming back to making dreams come true and living for weekends away. Love and miss you guys. er one thing, i dont see a dogs den. ❤❤
no dogs den in this one buddy cos they never stay in them so they get to have the full couch to them selves sean
I'm really enjoying your videos. I have a 1992 ducato globetrotter that I'm struggling to keep on the road so I appreciate your positivity while renovating Doug. Gives me motivation to keep going with our Rosie, thanks! 👍
You can do it! Good luck from us 😊
@@UrbanVanlife thanks!
Love the name Guys.
Looking forward to this project, be lucky
Thanks and great name to you too! 🤩
Bloody loving Doug we are!! Ignore the negative ninnies - they’ll be laughing on the other side of their faces when you turn a whopping profit if/when you sell it. Can’t wait for the next instalment 👍🏻
Absolutely brilliant we have loved watching
It's looking great I'm loving the progress you have made. It's so nice seeing it come back to life x
exactly
You're doing a fantastic job on the Motorhome,love you're channel keep up the fantastic work Phill,and Janet pidcock. X
well done you two, a good job done without complaining about how much work had too be done. some people get it in their lap, you worked for yours and should be proud. Eric
Ignore the haters there only jealous , Doug is looking amazing and you pair have done a great job on him. Cant wait to see the finished Doug and watch the adventures you take him on.
Oh and I cant believe you didn't show us what's in the safe and left us all in suspense for another installment. Hope there is a good wad of cash and it pays you both for all your hard work.👍
Absolutely love this build but I love the humour more. 😁
👏 good job, looks great
No....... don't end there 😮 you forgot to open the safe! It's looking good guys
I’d have thought that thing was for the knacker’s yard but I’ve got to take my hat off to you, what a transformation. Inspiring to everyone on a budget 👍
Very amazing video well done and keep up the great work and I loved listening to your videos as I am fully blind
Omg...I started watching this becoz you remind me abit of my hubby he used to do these sort of things and now I can laff about them but b4 he used to play on my last patients....but you guys are hilarious and the vans looking amazing keep going and ignore negative vibes there not worth the thought anyway can't wait to watch more xx❤
Arrrr thank you taz ❤️
Really enjoying this budget build ❤
I bet if you offered the trolls a free holiday in Doug they would jump at the chance... you've hot a lovely camper van for less than 2k... nothing wrong with those figures... keep going 👌
Haters gonna hate, just give them Dementors a damn good ignoring folks, keep up the great vids guys, always enjoyable to watch.
You are doing a great job guys love to see it
You're doing an amazing job, saving something that most people would have consigned to the scrapyard. Looks good so far, look forward to seeing the finished thing.
I’m glad u take no notice of the negative comments guys. Keep doing what yr doing we all think yr ace. Now get that bloody safe open and stop keeping us in suspense 😂. Maxx
What a neat project. Well done guys. 🚐
Thanks buddy
I'm in the same boat as you two, at the end of the day as long as your both happy and enjoying yourselves who gives a f**k what other people think. Loving the video's on Doug and cant wait to see more!
Great vlog guy's. It is looking good looking forward to the next vlog
Be safe
I must admit I thought you went more crazy then you already were, buying this motorhome but the amount of work you put into it is showing... Great job your doing. Personally I would have never started or dare to start. It's amazing to see what you can achieve if you just keep on going. I think the make over is absolutely perfect.
Thank you Edwin that’s a lovely comment and we totally appreciate it thank you
I don't even own a camper van let alone a full license...yet here I am 😅... love the content and look forward to the banter between you 2 🩷💙
Your speach about negativaty....absoulute quality. Love it
well done great video... as my mum used to say, if you have nothing nice to say don't say anything.... Doug has feelings as well. :)
Love that! doug has feelings , i bet hes feeling a little better now some ones loving him , thank you
I think that you are doing a wonderful job you have put a lovely kitchen in (I know it’s only painted) it, looks fabulous love what you did with the lounge area you are a wonderful couple I look forward to your videos they are always uplifting. Those people who criticise would probably never try what you do so they can go find someone else to critique
A stumbled on a short neil. A pray to God youre okay. Thank god youve got emma and family . Please take care mate or Sky Daddy will piss allover you 😆😆 ffs forget you tube and get well x
Great video as this is what thousands of people are doing on a budget , You could have a million pound motorhome and you would still get negative people they are just pathetic , keep up the good work folks
As long as the motors good and the floor isn't falling out you stand a good chance of sorting it.
Brilliant Job guys also love the banter😂😂❤🎉
Thank you matt
I love watching you rebuild Doug ❤️
The body work may benefit from a citrus wash left to dwell then rinsed followed by a snow foam & wash. A compound, polish & wax will make it look a lot tidier.
I think you are making a cracking job and some people are just cheeky with their comments crack on pal looking good
just leave them to it isn there a odd sort buddy
Your doing an amazing job guys. Love your attitudes, give no F***s to the negative Nellie's. How did you treat all the damp? Love that you set up the solar to the power bank, great idea. 😊
ignore the NEG FERRETS......you will have the last laugh....... great job guys can't wait to see the finished van.
neg ferrets omg love it , from now on thats what they are called , f kin brilliant
I recently saw someone say you’ve not made it until you get negative comments. I don’t get the negativity as you two are among the funnest and most entertaining to watch. Glad you have no more fecks to give. Keep up the great work! ❤
Thanks for that! its just not worth letting people you dont know worry you buddy lifes hard as it is with out letting things like that worry you
Really enjoying the progress guys 👍🏻
Sorry Neil, not being critical just offering some advice, I trained as an aircraft electrician way back. I’ve been using solder sleeves since the early 1970’s in the aviation industry, and you should make the stripped end of the wires a little shorter. The reason being the coloured bands inside the solder sleeve is the environmental seal and should be shrunk onto the ends of the wire insulation.
The ones I was used to were made of quite a tough shrink sleeve and the coloured bands red, blue or yellow depending on size was made of nylon. As the main sleeve shrinks the nylon melted and sealed round the wire insulation forming an environmental seal to keep out moisture. As you can imagine in aircraft manufacture and maintenance we had strict fitting standards for these sleeves. We weren’t allowed the hook and twist method, the two (or more) wires had to be stripped and laid parallel before the sleeve was shrunk. Your method does have the advantage of a bit more mechanical strength, but the seals wont work unless they are on the insulation. Moisture can creep in under the end of the sleeve then migrate up between the multi cores of the wire into the joint.
I do have to admit to being one of “those” As you started on the solar panel job I was saying “clean the roof Neil, the sticky stuff will bond better” then you shot me down when you said “of course I cleaned the roof first”
Maybe that’s what’s in the safe Neil, all the f**ks you need to give to the negative nannies, that’s why you haven’t found them yet! The worlds full of critics, that can only criticise and think negatively.
Good job on the old van though, lots of work, but great results. Keep on with the videos.
It’s coming on very well, Looking great - what a transformation in progress -
Well done - really surprised how fresh it’s looking and impressed with the cost.
Have a great weekend and hope you manage to get it finished before your trip.
All the best, David & Rachel 👍
Your doing an excellent job on that van I need to get one and do it up👍👍
Food the haters!! Love the channel, guys.keep up the good work.All the best from stoke on trent
I hope you don’t think my comment was negative lol. I love how brave you both are! It’s coming along amazing ☺️☺️
haaha cheers buddy , and no bud your all good lol ,
Looking Great .Love the 50s look kitchen , Black and white squares floor would look great
You are both doing a fantastic job with this van..and should be proud. As for these people giving negative feedback then as the saying goes..if you can't say anything nice then don't say anything at all!!❤
We agree! thanks for watching jean
Emma is likely to want to batter me for this BUT honestly I think you need to do this again with another van and make it a regular thing.
Not everyone has a huge budget for a van and you are showing people that even a really crap horrid van can be relatively cheap to turn into something amazing. Honestly Neil and Emma DOUG looks so bloody fab now. A lovely cosy beautiful space to live. Anyone would be happy to have a holiday in Doug now. Well done both of you and next time buy an ‘Ethel’
Aaaww love your choice of name Ethel, but I’m going to have to put my size 5 down and say no more vans for a while 😂😂 need to get some sleep at some point 😂😂
Brill to see youre getting more subs. Well done bring on 50k .
Fingers crossed! its been shooting up since we started on the motorhome , but we know whos been here for a long time buddy and still appreciate the originals
Great job guys👍 Doug is starting to take shape keep up the great work 👍
Looking great both👍
thanks shane , hes coming along , we did his roof today with rubber paint so hopefully stopped any leaks he had
looking good and in these times where people are struggling it shows nothing is impossible ❤
The word impossible could also be seen as I’m possible 😃

That white paint is excellent I've painted galv scaffold poles on my carport with that. Looking forward to seeing your next video. Best wishes to you both. David and Beverley Norfolk.
Negative people have nothing positive to pass on to anyone! .....however, you two and of course your little helper, inspire and encourage hard work and determination to create wonderful things. Thank you and good luck ❤
