Shower water is supplied by the 70L water container in the rear garage. Fresh water for the kitchen area is provided by a 20L tank located under the Belfast sink. This tank is filled through the filler cap located on the worktop. This water is pumped by a very quiet Shurflo pump to the kitchen tap. The grey waste from the sink water is collected into a 40L waste-water carrier that is positioned externally under the van when parked up at your overnight destination, this can then be easily wheeled to the nearest grey waste disposal point as necessary.

Extra Information: Since purchasing her in 2021 Paul & Fi have upgraded her ‘brain’, fitted the Fiamma 4m awning, improved the water filling and waste disposal facilities and replaced the soft furnishings. Paul & Fi haven taken her as a support vehicle for The Three Peaks Challenge to raise money for the local Hospice and Mind. Pai performed admirably, catering superbly for the team of 9 and offering good protection from the typical British weather over an intense 24 hours! Her time on the Quirky Campers fleet has seen Pai venture north to the NC500 and Scottish Islands and Highlands, into Pembrokeshire, Brecon Beacons and Snowdonia, into Europe to the Christmas Markets in Bruges, Strasbourg and Colmar and as far south as Sardinia, across the Mediterranean to Barcelona; of course, she has also attended multiple music festivals. She is an all-round advanturer ! Conversion Story: Pai started life as a carpenter’s van; her previous owners lovingly designed and converted her in 2019 using reclaimed scaffolding planks, pallet wood panelling and copper piping. For Paul & Fi it was love at first sight and they would now like others to enjoy their own experiences and create amazing memories in Pai.
