SLEEPING
The super easy pull-out sofa-style bed measures 120 x 190 cm and is supported by a custom heavy-duty drawer slide system. For added comfort, the bed features a 13cm memory foam mattress. The sleeping area is equipped with dimmable USBC rechargeable reading lights, thermal blackout blinds on the skylights, and 100% linen privacy curtains.

LIVING
The van includes an L-shaped sofa that is 70cm deep, with 2 large storage drawers underneath. There is also large under-bed storage with gas-assisted opening, providing enough space for a small chemical WC (not included). For added security, there is a small discreet hidden storage area for passports and documents. The living area also features a Laguna-style swivel table, shoe storage, and dimmable, portable, rechargeable lighting.

KITCHEN
The kitchen boasts a solid beech wood countertop and an Alpicool 22L 12v chest fridge with an ice cube tray, which is Bluetooth connected. It includes an 18L portable water dispenser and a stylish portable gas-powered stove. The kitchen provides ample preparation area and a water hyacinth basket for dry food storage. There is storage for tableware (plates, bowls, glasses, mugs) and a large storage drawer for pots and pans. Additionally, there is a drawer with a collapsible washing-up bowl, a pullout solid beech wood coffee table, a cutlery and utensil drawer, and large upright storage for camping chairs and other items.

DESIGN
The van features hardwearing vinyl flooring and lower cabinets painted in ‘Ochre’ matt finish from COAT paints. The walls and ceiling are painted in ‘Pale Cashmere’ chalky matt finish from Craig & Rose, and the dark stained wood is finished in ‘Jacobean Dark Oak’. The countertops are made of solid dark stained beech wood, and the removable cushion covers are complemented by brass hooks and handles. The surfaces are wipeable and wax-protected, and the metalwork is covered in ‘Oat’ color 4-way stretch carpet.

INSULATION & VENTILATION
For insulation and ventilation, the van includes 2 Mini Heki Dometic Skylights with built-in mosquito nets and blackout blinds. The floor is insulated with 25mm PIR board, while the walls and ceiling have 10mm Dodomat closed cell foam and an additional 50mm Dodomat recycled thermal fleece. Expanding insulated foam is used in nooks and crannies for extra insulation.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
The electrical system features a brand new Bluetti EB3A Portable Solar Generator with a 600W AC Pure Sine Wave Inverter (1,200W surge) and a 268Wh capacity. It offers 430W max. fast dual charging (Solar+AC) with a LiFePO4 battery that has 2,500+ life cycles to 80%. There are 6 ways to recharge (AC/Solar/Car/Generator/AC+Solar/AC+Adapter) and 8 outputs for charging multiple devices at once. The system is smart-controlled and monitored via the BLUETTI App. The van also comes with brand new 120W foldable solar panels that are easy to carry, fast charging, safe, reliable, and cost-effective.

EXTERIOR
The van has been professionally resprayed in VW T4 Classic Blue and boasts great bodywork with no signs of rust. It drives like a dream, being equipped with the sought-after 1.9TD diesel engine.

The van itself drives really well and, as part of the sale, we ensure all basics are covered mechanically, including a brand new MOT. Blu has had a professional full service, oil change, new timing belt, new accessory belt, new water pump, new radiator, new coolant, new glow plugs, new glow plug relay, and new tyres. She’s ready for your summer adventures!
