Awesome Van, I liked that the table slid forward and backwards. I was surprised with the amount of under bed storage it had and the 2 burner stove is a nice addition. This would be fun to go camping in!
Yer there really isn’t any thing you need and you can just put the roof down and go which I love . Thanks Suzy and hope you and the family are all safe and well
Just discovered your channel, Agnus is absolutely a gorgeous build. I love everything about her, and that shower "WOW". I went ahead and subscribed to your channel will be binge watching your content for the next few days. Thank you for such great content.
Thank you mate that’s means a lot . And yer man she’s had a lot of my blood and plenty of time but she’s given me so man good times as well . Thanks for the comment mate hope your safe and well
@@UrbanVanlife ive got most of everything I need, haven't had a lot of time to finish it off with Covid-19, haven't anywhere off street to work safely :( it'll get there!
Well I love your van cuz it's a VW and we're VW fans, but I also like the way you have it painted. Still absolutely love your shower set up! That would not be good to have a huge light glare on your windshield lol. Think your pop top is really cool too! You've done such a great job on your van and added some really awesome features. Thanks for the tour!
Thanks for the comment . And yer the roof lights are amazing but you do have to set them back when fitting them which some people don’t and it causes all sorts of problems . Hope you seen your sticker . Stay safe guys xxp
Superb van, fellow scouser with old 2001 lwb orange t4, fancy the raptor paint and light, after some ‘serious’ welding needed on side door rail. Top stuff. Used for festivals/camping only.
Yer man I looked into getting a high top and thought I’m probably better with a pop cos I forget some times and next thing I’d have ripped it off lol .
Urban Explorer I didn’t have the choice as needed the permanent extra space for the wife and boy. Soon as we bought the van tho I new I wouldn’t want it any other way now.
lol i was like hey you just said passenger seat swiveled and drivers didn then you went to driver seat..... wrong side of road man WRONG SIDE lol hahaha jk. so is that a ham radio or a CB?
Lol it’s only the wrong seat here haha . And no mate the superstar dosnt go ham frequency’s I’m mainly on the upper and lower side bands on the 27.555 frequency’s
I know I’m planning on doing a crafter next cos I’m kind of feeling the same as you and I want to live in it and travel as well and no way I can do all that on a T4 . Not with the amount of crap I have . Thanks for the comment bro
Chris B dude start with your phone mate . All you need is a phone and check out a friend of mine called dee Nimmin he’s got a channel telling you all about mobile creation and it’s all filmed on mobile .
Loved that mini tour along with the mini intro in the beginning aswell. I wonder tho, whats the battery autonomy if you turn on some lights, tv and pc or laptop ?
The leisure battery I have will on its own run the van lights tv and charge all devices including laptop for about 3 days on its own . It’s 120 amp hrs but with it being charged off solar then it’s pretty much free energy mate and lasts basically for ever cos of the solar system I fitted which pulls in 15volts off the panel even in cloudy light . And thanks mate that little intro was a challenge thst I was excited to do . I wanted it to be a little diffrent so thank you bud
@@UrbanVanlife Your welcome, that sounds very awesome you could do anything without worrying. If i had a van with that autonomy i could definitely convert it into portable art or video studio.
3D Plastic Fantasy 100% mate you TOTALY could . And with more solar added you could add all kinds . My next video is about fitting solar to the van start battery so it never goes flat and alllways has enough power to start the van
So I search “VW raptor paint” and you pop up mate!! 😂I want to raptor my bumpers on the T5 (commercial textured plastic) going for the swamper look I’ve used no end of gel and sprays to make shiny in the past so thinking paint might not even stick?? Have you got any advice what I could do? Thinking ...remove...good wash, degreaser, key with 240/400?, clean again... panel wipe, plastic primer...raptor?? Any tips be great bud 👍🏼
yes yes mate you can for sure do this , the company that makes raptor which it upol sell a rattle cann of adhesion promotor , just clean the plastics and spray on leave for a bit then apply the raptor , we used it on our bumpers and it worked perfectly , here is a link to the product but shop about and see if you can find cheeper mate , hope this helps refinishsystems.com/product/upol-raptor-adhesion-promoter-aerosol-450ml/?gclid=Cj0KCQiAyoeCBhCTARIsAOfpKxhH6um0y2R8mPe6JRQbJ10jpFBlbI2GrmW4Kd3ttpCgzEam4rGMV_IaAi2LEALw_wcB, i should do a video on this , cos i get asked it a lot
@@UrbanVanlife awesome! Thank you bud! I feel like it’s definitely something I can do just bit apprehensive about getting an even coat. How much did you use on your bumpers? I’d be really interested to watch any vids you do about it 👍🏼
hey up neil,super great video as always...question...what is your audio set up...im struggling..speakers where are they ?size 6x9?amp size etc....cheers
Well I have the 2 dash ones then 2 6x9 in the center console and 2 6x9 In the bed board . But then I gave 2 12 in subs in the end of the kitchen unit wired to a 1000 watt amp lol she sounds ok lol
Hi Urban Explorer great chanel after some advice really i used the aerosol raptor,however in places it squirted out quite alot so has left lumps on the finish can i sand down with maybe 8o grit and spray again ...not sure as never used Raptor before
I'm only messing kid. I got one myself with rusty arches and ended up covering inside and out with a thick layer of grease and put some chrome arches on it. Seems to have done the job last time I took em off to check 👍. Enjoying the channel 👍
I absolutely love that van, but you did not go over the greatest feature of the van..... You can see it in the video, but you just glossed right over it.
Watch how i fitted the Chinese heater here -- czcams.com/video/rkdqhgmyUAc/video.html
That shower set up is awesome!
Thanks buddy, it came in handy many times!!

How do u mean mate I don’t follow
are your 6x9nspeakers ...4-3-2 way coaxle etc
can you please tell me where you got the wing vent scoop please? I have hunted for hours trying to find something like this..
It was off eBay mate but that was easy 10 years ago
Hi Urban Explorer great chanel after some advice really i used the aerosol raptor,however in places it squirted out quite alot so has left lumps on the finish can i sand down with maybe 8o grit and spray again ...not sure as never used Raptor before
Could be a bit of a job to get it down mate but I’m sure if you stick at it you’ll get to a point where you can just give it a touch over mate
It keeps rust at bay while standing by the rusty wheel arch 😂😂
Don’t forget only 1 side is sprayed . Rust can get in from both sides . So done properly it dose keep rust at bay .
I'm only messing kid. I got one myself with rusty arches and ended up covering inside and out with a thick layer of grease and put some chrome arches on it. Seems to have done the job last time I took em off to check 👍. Enjoying the channel 👍
With it being black, how do you cope in summer time? Does it get roasting?
oh mate it sure dose . like mega hot and you know we dont have air con lol
Hi where did you get the checkered wrap on your bonnet please
We got it off eBay mate . There is quite a few designs on there and they last as well
What would I put in to find it .... I’ve been looking but no joy ...
👍🔝🔝🔝🔝🔝❤❗
Nice safe whats the combination then??
Lol I’ll give you a clue it’s not 1234 or 0000
Have you done the headlight loom mod to improve brightness?
Yet mate I have xennons fitted but some times you need a little more light don’t you
Who did the raptor paint job & how much was it ?
We did it our selves in the front garden mate and it cost about £500 for all the gear
I absolutely love that van, but you did not go over the greatest feature of the van..... You can see it in the video, but you just glossed right over it.
Give me a time stamp - I’ll play your game
