You guys should be proud of what you have achieved especially for your first time 👍
Thank you
Totally inspired me. Best conversion for this bod that I’ve seen. Thank you.
Thank you so much. All the best
Amazing built. Not only learned a lot but also enjoyed every moment of this built series. Kudos to you guys. 👍
Thank you, that really means a lot
I know it's not bike related,but I've really enjoyed watching you convert it into a camper van.
Thank you 😊
Guaranteed you added more than you spent in value of this van. Damn good job, I cant wait for your trips in your new completed van. Dont fret about losing subs, people uninterested in this style of content will go, and people who are interested in it will come in time... just do whatever you wanna do in your creation process. This being fun for you is far more important.
Very well said
Hi nick and jodie. Brilliant conversion both
Be proud. Enjoyed watching. Looking forward to your adventures
Old dave
Thank you for sharing! This is an excellent reference if I ever start my own van project. 👍
You're welcome, and I thank you for watching and sharing a comment 😊
I'm quite impressed actually, this being your first time doing something like this. I don't have the patience to do something like this, and that nice.
Thank you Paul
A real credit to you both and can`t wait to see you both, out and about in it, during this year.
About that... I've kind of sold it already, new bikes on the horizon?? Maybe...
I'm sure you'll have a lot of enjoyment from it, good job 👍
Brilliant guys well done just subscribed
Cheeeeers
I am an old viewer of your NC videos and came back to see what you are up to, and this is a bit different! But what a great achievement. I would love to do something like that one day. It would be good to see some of your van adventures in the future.
Well, don't leave because I might just be getting another bike, and the nc is at the top of my list !
Nice conversion! 👍
Thank you 😊
Wow Great job!
Thank you 😊
Great job people.
Cracking job mate. If you come down to Devon in the summer let me know. You can take my NC out for the day across Dartmoor.
oh ill bear that in mind haha, cheers!
Great job 👍👌.
Great how you even under sealed van.
Thank you! Cheers!
Thats just class guys ❤️
Thank you 😊
Well done both. Just shows what you can achieve with a little bit of planning, thought and cooperation plus of course a few readies. Have followed your channel from the early days with the NC. Whats the next project?
Bike Hunt 2.0
WOW...Hi Nick its been sometime now, and maybe even a Tad Late in saying..Hop you had a Great Christmas and a Happy New Year...I sold my Blue Beloved NCHonda 750x as it was Hurting my Bum even with Air Cushion and ive gone Back to Maxi Scooters for Comfort and Carrying Capacity, i forgot to mention way way back, i couldnt help but notice you wearing DIMEX Bike jacket ( I wear the same) got both from Ebay fully Armoured and a Brilliant Price..Anyway i see you are off Bikes now and what a Project..Two of my Friends have done this, and Trust me it saves in the Long run a Fortune for Touring Holidays both Here in the UK AND IN EUROPE.......Bloody Lovely job done Mate, and as always your High Standard in Videos.......
Hey bud, thank you so much for stopping by. It brightened my day reading your comment. All the best
Hiya, first-time converter here. How did you achieve the rear floor metal trim? I have a vivaro with a tailgate and am struggling to make the floor fit flush due to the ribs on the floor. I see you have removed the plastic strip that covered the door latch. Can i do the same? I take it's not necessary to keep it down? And to make something more appealing. I hope I've explained that well enough. It's hard to say what i mean...
Remove the plastic trim. Use insulation between the ribs
Is the bed long enough for you both to lay out fully stretched?
Van looks good.
Yes am I'm 5ft9. Thanks for watching
Very nice job. I'm in the process of converting my 2015 Vivaro. Could, I please ask for details of the fridge (does it use much leisure battery juice) and any info on the curtains please?
Crx50 fridge is by far the best. The solar panel alone can run it everyday. Curtains are from kiravans on ebay. Highly recommended 👌
Thank you, I have purchased an excellent swivel seat base from Kiravans. @@nicksepisode
No diy experience yeah right 😂
I'll take that as a compliment. I was a mechanic for 20 years mind
Brilliant job mate
Where did you get the curtains from
From ebay seller "kiravans"
astronauts to launch pad, T minus 20 seconds.
Nice, I'm doing the same to the same van
How do you sleep width way or length way?
Width way, but I'm only 5ft9
Great video however; WTF was that horrific Muzak?
What Muzak
Is it a swb
lwb version
Can i ask what colour you used for the tongue and groove on the sides? I really like it. You've done a great job!
