Such a well thought built. Your knowledge about other builts is obvious. Love the thinking about building it fully insulated with interior space utilisation in mind, rather than fitting a regular steel wall van.
Love this build..Jess, you can talk as much as you want as I love listening to the banter between the two of you. Keep the videos coming as they brighten up my day ❤❤
It's been so good watching this build. So inspirational and the videography is top class too. I think it just needs some Joy Horn graphics on the side and a shadow foam torch drawer.
Such an amazing build ! But more than that you are an amazing couple so, so inspirational and watching you two you can feel the love thank you for all the Saturday mornings 😜
Been loving all your videos and builds, especially the Aus series. Jess- your comment during this build of “8 billion people on the planet and I chose this idiot” cracked me up. Looking forward to seeing this van in the Artic!
Great build! I was in Norway recently on a motorbike tour. If you're arriving in Kristiansand on a ferry don't just scoot straight out. It's a nice place and worth a mooch. Roads are great and we saw plenty of people enjoying wild camping all along the roadside. Enjoy your trip!!
Now done, please keep these videos coming, the banter between the two of you makes for great entertainment . hope you keep reminding her Jon ,she is a very lucky woman lol ,lol , lol
The best van build on the internet. Top quality, great entertainment, loving the content. My wife and I have now exhausted the entire back catalogue of your channel, so we cant wait for more videos from you guys. Anyway, tool talk Tuesday needs its own dedicated video. Keep up the amazing videos Jess & Jon, you guys are brilliant.
Fantastic build series full of amazing content and craftsmanship from both of you, great teamwork from a lovely fun couple and full of humour, happy travels for the future and best wishes. Looking forward to videos of you getting the best out of this camper, amazing job well done. 🇬🇧👍❤️🛠️
Quality Guys - Had me laughing all the way through 🤣 John yr a spoilt boy with all them toys and that workshop 😜but Jess is the real star of the show (can't believe you let her loose with a drill tho mate😉) Keep em coming.. Rapidly turning into my Fav UA-cam couple at the moment 🚐💨❤
@@snoman1999the van has 3 big opening windows with fly screen, a massive opening roof light with fly screens and an exhaust fan in the bathroom. We do actually have one of the vent slots in the roof vent all the time just to let fresh air in even when it’s fully closed.
Cool Beans.. just when I had ours in a cabinet like yrs, the compressor always seemed to be running when the weather was hot.. Once Id re-located it under the bed where it has plenty of ventilation, the compressor runs until it reaches its temp and then switches off saving battery life.. 🤙🏽@@truebluetravellers

Cheered me up no end…….so cheerful & spontaneous. Engineering skills and the quality of work you both produced was awe inspiring! Cannot wait for you to hit the road. ❤❤❤
watching your video is the best part of my day, I love your compatibility with each other and your relationship is perfect, stay happy.. keep posting, ✨🌼🌱 love 🤍
We need that Sainsbury's sticker back on the van cause it would look amazing like half of it too fool people 😉 love that you both joke with each over and play around as well 😁😁 fantastic craftsmanship you put into that amazing van of yours 🙌🏻🙌🏻
Love the quality of the video and the quality of the build. You two are a perfect couple and bounce off each other. Unfortunately I don't have the tools or the skill to do such a brilliant job, and also so quickly. Wish I could drop my van off to you for 11 minutes and get it kitted out. Cannot wait for your future travel videos.
Just got home and what a great surprise - a Wednesday video from my favourite adventurers 😊. Love your conversion/build of this van and looking forward to seeing the video where the bungee proves to be a useful addition to the build! 😉 😂. See you Saturday 😊
Love the banter, love your sense of humor. You two are just amazing and should offer conversation builds as a business for those who don't have the knowledge or time to do this. Your work is top notch. 🎉🎉🎉
@@truebluetravellers I've done some camper renovations myself by watching UA-cam vids for tips and know how. I wish I'd watched your videos first back then as would've saved myself a lot of time and money. I tip my hat to you both.
The second to last build video came up on my reccomended, I then went and watched all the others to "catch up" before the next one came out. 😁 The van looks amazing and attention to detail is inspiring. I'm also in awe of that tool shed! Makes such a difference having the right tools for the job, I learned that the hard way as a kid watching my Dad do DIY with lots of improvised tools! 😂
Just found you guys and hats off to you - your build looks fantastic, not over the top but your attention to detail and the level of your craftsmanship is top notch. Added to which you both seem remarkably normal and likeable (I’m sure you’re both monsters really! 😉). The perfect start to my Saturday and I can’t wait to catch up on your travels in the van.
ABSOLUTLY AMAZING!!!!!! seen as how you are not "allowed" a plasma.... I think a nice Bungee Wall picture/memo board would look FANTASTIC on the loo wall above the seat
Hopefully you are both now enjoying the results of all your hard work, skill, craft and graft. Jon the bungee boss and Jess the best Aussie it’s time to relax 😊
We didn’t want to put this out as a Saturday video 😁 it’s just a little extra. Our first Scotland video will be out Saturday 🤞a beer sounds perfect about now!!
Keep the vlogs coming we look forward to them , when you have been there about 3 weeks you will be completely chilled and used to the French getting up early morning and they tend to go to bed early in the winter months, your body clock will adjust . Steve and Wendy 🇨🇵
Have loved every minute of watching this series 😊Obviously the end result is fantastic and you should both be proud of that but I think what I have enjoyed most is showcasing that the journey (as cheesy as that sounds) is as important as the end result... I also think for the first time I have found people as finickity with detail as me and Megs (thats a good thing by the way) ... keep it up! John with all those tools you need a jetski already for your adventures!
Hope you both have amazing adventures in the Landy and the Sprinter. Been good fun watching you both work on the two projects. Looking forward to your adventures away in them, they are going to be Epic!
@@truebluetravellers I am envious. I love Scotland. Used to Live their as a Kid up near Inverness. Hopefully there is a video to follow. I would ask where you have been, but that would ruin the surprise, I will just have to wait in hope of a first trip video.
Wow look at that bungee ! What an amazing job you done on that bungee The van looks good as well !😂😂😂 Well done guys loved watching your videos on the build very inspiring
Rrrrrr man this is my Saturday morning vlog with a coffee what’s up you 2 hope you have had a great week you need to start daily vlogging 😂 another great vid you 2 are smashing it ❤
Well after being fooled with a mobile home . Going to give it my last try and try this build it’s just amazing yet you both work so well together. You both are talented 👌
🎉🎉🎉 No waffle about tools 🎉🎉🎉 Jess definitely get his lordship a No1 haircut might actually make him look human. Seriously though guys keep an eye on the weather if your planning to go up to Scotland -5c forecast before December make sure your diesel tank is insulated, have you considered putting a privacy film over the living area windows on a security note I would recommend getting a tracker fitted after all your effort JESS
😂😂 I’m glad someone has seen who does all the hard work 💪💪, yeah the weather is getting rather cold up here 🥶 but it’s good for us to get used to it for the real cold I suppose 🥶 what are we doing 🤦♀️😂
What a fun 8 week van build . ( and I’m not even a van life person . Go 110 Land Rover defender over lander fan 😁. ) great video again you two . Cheers from Steve Stott in Sutherlin Oregon U.S.A. :) :) 🛠💪🏻🍻👍🏼😁🚚
Cheers Steve, it will be a nice change to get in the Landy and head for a warmer climate after the arctic in the sprinter, but looking forward to both all the same, thanks for coming along with us 😁
I honestly think you need an extra Battery for backup at the very least. I also believe the vans floor gets extremely cold! I wish I could remember the channel an American stealth camper builder fitted his van out with heated floor pads that just took the edge off a freezing floor rather than a source for heating the van. I just realised he had them under the leisure battery! He also had a recycling water filter system fitted to the shower. The 2 gallons of water goes through filters, I believe 7 times before it ends up in the grey tank. Remember heat rises if you can blow the heated air down you should get a more even spread of heated air in the cabin. May if you exit and enter the van through the cab you shouldn’t loose as much cabin heated air? It’s just a thought. Good luck with your trip.
Cheers Gordon, so the plan is to test the battery setup in Scotland, we had a whole day off yesterday in the van and the battery system held up well but we will keep testing to see how it goes, heat pads are a brilliant idea but they need a huge battery setup to run, the recirculating shower idea I love and I think it’s something I’m going to do in a future build as water is probably the hardest thing to source on the road 👍
@@truebluetravellers Ref Heat pads this particular setup just used enough power to take the edge off the freezing floor? If I find the link I would send it to you.
What a build, what a journey, what a laugh! Brilliant, brilliant, bungee, 〰️ brilliant. Oops sorry Jess 💪 a bungee 〰️ slipped in there - but you must admit it does look great. Fun, fun, fun guys. Dave Birmingham
OMG Just stumbled across your channel a couple of days ago. Amazing build... now if I had a qtr of the tools and the 1/2 the knowhow, I'd be off to 1/8th of a start! Nice one guys.
That’s such a tough question, I’d say a pannel van is much easier to convert as you don’t have to make any doors or windows etc electrics are easier to run , and you can just do the interior if wanted, where as these need more work, but then on the flip side, for a full time van to live in a box van like this is hands down the best van u can get, so well insulated, so much space, can be allot more stealth depending how you build it
you should setup a business building camper vans to order, the quality is excellent and the turnaround pretty quick. You can use that to help fund your trips bu not only selling at a profit but also you tube the builds.
I have just watched your video it’s beautiful, I love Scotland we have 8 days booked in June just love it, the food is great the scenery fantastic I know you will have great time. X
This was an epic build loved it the quality you guys put in to everything you built was beyond amazing, so,wish you had a company making these and selling them I’d rather pay you than some overweight motorhomes out there
I am GUTTED there was no TTT 🤣🤣 guess I’ll have to wait for the full workshop tour 💪🏻💪🏻 also the 20s Vs 20 minutes comment made me spit my coffee out haha.
Thanks mate, so the duck board at the front stops it moving back and forth and there is an air extraction pipe which stops it moving sideways, it doesn’t move at all to be honest and we didn’t want to fix it down as then it can always be easily removed to clean etc, our last van build was the same and we never had an issue 👍👍
Fantastic builds you’ve both completed really loved watching. Can you tell me what windows you chose and could you let me know more about the walk through and the frame you made also the accordion seal please ? Love you guys
Thanks so much Jim. We did a video that shows building the crawl through. I’ll link it for you. The windows are just from eBay and will link those too 💙 ua-cam.com/video/VHCeB7O_pCA/v-deo.htmlsi=XU9gS1D-EPVafRPF www.ebay.co.uk/itm/404373112871?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=Sm7PhKPoTpW&sssrc=4429486&ssuid=h77jMQulRBK&var=674308999802&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY

That's a nice job you have done on the delivery van, looks the business. I have a long wheel base Sprinter and I was wondering what you think of the comforser cf1100 tyres
I’m in love with the project and final result, the attention to detail that you guys put in it! Such an inspiring camper! Also I’d like to ask if you guys recommend the shower pan you used and what’s the supplier, it looks low profile and very professional ❤️
Thanks very much, the shower trays are very good but also very expensive, I’ll drop a link below www.romerworld.co.uk/product-page/stainless-steel-shower-trays
Brilliant, but where’s my Sainsbury’s order. Disgraceful service I want my money back. Very well done, I’ll forsake the baked beans for your new adventures. Keep smiling.
Great van and what an amazing job you have done . I did Norway this summer in my t5 but no way could I do the winter and would love to! So this is a great option 👍🏻 weight wise could i carry a 120kg mx bike across the back ? As would love to take it with me on summer trips
I really enjoy watching your videos. Really inspires me to try to be less scared of using tools and trying new things. I had a question about the mattress you guys used here, you said it was better that the one in the defender. Do you have a link for it??
Hi Lizzie, oh that’s so great! 🥰 yes of course it’s from Amazon www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B08N6LVKQZ/ref=cm_sw_r_as_gl_api_gl_i_43S4Y14VMW1BZ350E2FW?linkCode=ml2&tag=truebluetrave-21
You joke around a lot, but I want to say the craftsmanship and attention to detail in this build are second to none. I love it so much.
Thanks mate 👍
they really do fantastic work. all the builds so far have turned out excellent

Amazing build... now if I had a qtr of the tools and the 1/2 the knowhow, I'd be off to 1/8th of a start!
Nice one guys.
😂😂😂😂 cheers Paul
They're here ❤❤
😁😁💙💙
Would you say that these box vans are better than panel vans for a first time build? I plan to live in mine full time including winter.
That’s such a tough question, I’d say a pannel van is much easier to convert as you don’t have to make any doors or windows etc electrics are easier to run , and you can just do the interior if wanted, where as these need more work, but then on the flip side, for a full time van to live in a box van like this is hands down the best van u can get, so well insulated, so much space, can be allot more stealth depending how you build it
Will it be for sale or maybe you will make some more the same???A Superb vehicle...
you should setup a business building camper vans to order, the quality is excellent and the turnaround pretty quick. You can use that to help fund your trips bu not only selling at a profit but also you tube the builds.
Sounds like a plan that 👌
The 60-degree wedge of the table closest to the bed looks like something which I’d def hurt myself on constantly.
😂😂 funnily enough we have had this comment quite a bit 😁
Amazzzing so talented you two! What’s next? Have great week 🎉
Thanks Sandy, we are up in Scotland in the van at the minute, first video will be out on Saturday 😁
I have just watched your video it’s beautiful, I love Scotland we have 8 days booked in June just love it, the food is great the scenery fantastic I know you will have great time. X
This was an epic build loved it the quality you guys put in to everything you built was beyond amazing, so,wish you had a company making these and selling them I’d rather pay you than some overweight motorhomes out there
Cheers mate, yeah if someone had the space they could buy the boxes of these and do a good business from them 👍
I am GUTTED there was no TTT 🤣🤣 guess I’ll have to wait for the full workshop tour 💪🏻💪🏻 also the 20s Vs 20 minutes comment made me spit my coffee out haha.

What an achievement in 8 weeks.
Cheers mate 👍
This is frikking epic van well done you two
Cheers mate 👍
Awesome build. Awesome build videos!!! Thank you.
Uhm. Did I miss how you've secured the loo in the shower room?
Thanks mate, so the duck board at the front stops it moving back and forth and there is an air extraction pipe which stops it moving sideways, it doesn’t move at all to be honest and we didn’t want to fix it down as then it can always be easily removed to clean etc, our last van build was the same and we never had an issue 👍👍
Really is a fantastic job.......
Cheers mate 👍
Fantastic builds you’ve both completed really loved watching. Can you tell me what windows you chose and could you let me know more about the walk through and the frame you made also the accordion seal please ? Love you guys
Thanks so much Jim. We did a video that shows building the crawl through. I’ll link it for you. The windows are just from eBay and will link those too 💙

That's a nice job you have done on the delivery van, looks the business.
I have a long wheel base Sprinter and I was wondering what you think of the comforser cf1100 tyres
Brilliant mate, I’ve tried a few different males and for the money these are brilliant
I hope not the wife won't be pleased !@@truebluetravellers
😂😂😂 sorry I meant makes 😂😂😂
Me encanta!🎉 Me río mucho con ustedes jajaja
Muchas Gracias me amgio 💙
I’m in love with the project and final result, the attention to detail that you guys put in it! Such an inspiring camper! Also I’d like to ask if you guys recommend the shower pan you used and what’s the supplier, it looks low profile and very professional ❤️
Thanks very much, the shower trays are very good but also very expensive, I’ll drop a link below

@@truebluetravellers thank you very much to share ❤️
Nice summary, after my weekly fix ❤👍🇬🇧
😂😂 thanks 😁
Brilliant, but where’s my Sainsbury’s order. Disgraceful service I want my money back. Very well done, I’ll forsake the baked beans for your new adventures. Keep smiling.
😂😂😂 your delivery is on a bit of a detour…… round Scotland 🏴😂👍
Great van and what an amazing job you have done . I did Norway this summer in my t5 but no way could I do the winter and would love to! So this is a great option 👍🏻 weight wise could i carry a 120kg mx bike across the back ? As would love to take it with me on summer trips
Would love to put a bike on the back, that would be so cool 👌
I really enjoy watching your videos. Really inspires me to try to be less scared of using tools and trying new things.
I had a question about the mattress you guys used here, you said it was better that the one in the defender. Do you have a link for it??
Hi Lizzie, oh that’s so great! 🥰 yes of course it’s from Amazon www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B08N6LVKQZ/ref=cm_sw_r_as_gl_api_gl_i_43S4Y14VMW1BZ350E2FW?linkCode=ml2&tag=truebluetrave-21
