Absolutely brilliant engine with the super low mileage – 1 owner virtually from new. Took the biggest hill in the South West at 70mph in 6th gear (leading up to Exeter Racecourse on the A38). No other van I have driven has took that hill with such ease. Excellent torque and power, solid on the road/drives like a small van.

High level, off-grid campervan, completely hand-built by a professional converter with lengthy experience. I strive to find the balance between aesthetics, function and feel. Every single piece of wood has been shaped and sanded by hand and the layout is most suitable for this type of Mk7 Transit, maximising the dimensions of the vehicle to create a functional and cosy living space. The conversion is brand new. All technology is brand new. The bench cushions are brand new. Conversion completed: Dec 20th and pictures were taken that day. It has yet to be used, the bed has never been slept in.
Quality technology inside ensures you’re supported — meaning your fridge stays cold and you have electricity when you need it. The lithium battery can be drained to 0% unlike a normal lead acid battery. It is monitored using Bluetooth via your phone – just download the app and you’re good to go. There’s not much to do other than drive the vehicle a bit to charge it (and the solar panel will keep topping it up also). All operating manuals are included for the new owner.
There’s an Alpicool compressor chest fridge inside the front bench, they’re great – well tested by myself. It’ll keep your food and beverages cold day and night. Seat cushions are top quality, built for purpose from a caravan manufacturer. I bought them brand new – took them out the packets myself. Very solid and comfy. Perfect fit along the two benches. Very easy just to relax into and look out the rear windows at your view.
Cold water only – Wim Hof says yes – powered by Shurflo water pump from a 23litre Fiamma wheely water tank, a two ring gas hob runs from 7kg gas bottle for cooking. Insulation is triple layered (sound insulation base, recycled plastic bottle wool finished with a thermal wrap condensation barrier) in most places apart from the lower door panels which have 1-2 layers due to the locking machinery inside. Well sanded spruce cladding finishes things off.
Big overhead locker, large over-cab storage, plus ample storage in some of the benches. Two tinted rear windows inserted – one of the best view/seating config of any van build – park up by the beach in summer and you’ll see. The steel bulkhead has been left in for security and insulation (as most warmth lost through the cab area) but I’ve inserted a small viewing window so you can see out the front.

Perfect for a solo traveller or couple (with or without a youngster). Either an escape wagon or full-time living as it offers a good balance between size and space, comfort and privacy. It’s still a relative blank canvas in the rear, simply by adding your own fabrics/blinds/touches the feel could be transformed to the new buyer’s taste.
Van has just had a big service – I’ve just put on two brand new front tyres today also after the pictures where taken. All 4 tyres are excellent and the spare is brand new. The airbag light is illuminated and just needs resetting in garage – won’t take 5 minutes (it came on when I disconnected the battery to fit the charger).
Come and view, inspect / drive before purchase if you’re keen. Deposit Required to Hold. I’m based in Cornwall.
Two spacious singles (6ft 1 & 5ft 11 long x 68cm wide) with brand new cushions designed for sitting and sleep if flipped over. Either sleep as two singles or fit the wooden base panels to join up the beds into a king size double. Bed takes 60 seconds to convert to king size. Big enough for 3.
