Beautiful High Quality SWB Toyota Hiace Conversion

Kitchen ~
This bespoke conversion compromises of a large L shaped kitchen built with storage in mind. There is storage via the trio of deep kitchen storage cubby holes and the large draw. There’s a 3 ring gas hob complete with a full Campingaz 907 butane bottle included with Campingaz fittings, all connected up (Campingaz is easily refillable), bespoke swivel copper tap with Whale foot pump (foot pump is a great way of saving water), X2 20L fresh and grey water containers underneath the rectangular under mounted stainless steel sink. There is a convenient pull up table at the end of the kitchen which provides hugely advantageous worktop space, and outdoor socialising/cooking space. The fridge is a 12V Outwell ECOcool 35L cooler box, which is easily accessible via the compact pull out draw runners and is securely in place whilst driving via the elasticated bungee cord.

Electrics ~
All the 12V electrics in the camper are powered by 2, 130watt flexible monocrystalline solar panels located on the outside roof. The 30amp MPPT solar charge controller converts the solar energy into storable energy. There is a 105 amp hour AGM leisure battery (which is separate from the starter battery’s under the bonnet) which stores this useable energy and powers all the 12V electrics and cooler box in the campervan. This campervan is completely off-grid, requiring no electrical hook ups, which is ideal for stealth camping. The incoming and outgoing power is very easily monitored via the wall mounted MT50 LED display monitor.

Living space ~
The roomy, day sofa seating transforms with wooden support and pull out slats into a luxurious double bed. The mattress is a thick and comfortable IKEA foam mattress with freshly upholstered covers. Due to the well designed L shaped kitchen, even when the bed is out, the kitchen is accessible which is very practical. At the rear, there is an optional L shape seating space which provides additional seating, but is also fully removable to allow full access at the rear which is hugely advantageous. The day seating table is removable via the Sequoia free standing table leg and can be neatly stored behind the kitchen when not in use. Opposite the sofa is a large storage box with 3 cubby holes for entry through elasticated bungee cord, and pull up lid at the top which allows access with ease when the bed is out. There is practical shoe storage, door mat and hooks which are all easily accessible from the outside, as well as 2 natural canvas hanging baskets over the kitchen. The sliding door has a tinted opening window fitted, and there is cab and tailgate curtains incorporated.

Insulation ~
The camper is fully insulated throughout with recycled plastic wool insulation and a second layer of thermawrap foil vapour barrier. The base of the van, underneath the hard wearing laminate flooring, is also insulated with EcoTherm 25mm insulation board. The interior of the camper has been smartly finished with pine tongue and groove cladding and decorated in premium eggshell paint, with the kitchen, storage and bed decorated in high quality Valspar paint, including Farrow and Ball. The inside panel metal work has been lined throughout with sound deadening.

Due to the campers compact low top size, it’s easy to manoeuvre and park, not cumbersome, which gives you great piece of mind. There are few vans of this size that are easier to navigate around in urban conditions. The cab is surprisingly car-like, with its vertically oriented steering wheel. You can enter almost every height restricted car park which is hugely advantageous, with no worry of where the low bridges are on your travels. This camper is a real head turner and is completely unique! It’s undeniably cosy and homely inside which is just what you want from a campervan – a home from home.
