- It finally was time to rip out the old camper and start fresh. It was cramped and outdated, I wanted a design that was more useable and looked more inviting. The whole build was very enjoyable and I am pleased with the results. I hope you enjoy the film.

It doesn't matter how well you think out your camper, only after you live in it for a while do you realise what you actually need and how to organise things. Good to see the 2.0 version!
Thank you!
'Roaming Reckless' got me here .
Nice fit out 👍👏
Welcome aboard!
Really class. Great to see it all come together. Nice to see someone turning a defender into a camper without breaking the bank too. Restoring a series 3 that’s been in the family since before I was born, so I appreciate the hard work and perseverance that goes into a build like this
Now it's BORIS THE DEFENDER 3.0!
I think you did an excellent job with the new camper build. There are some pretty nifty solutions! I thought about doing the same thing with a stainless steel salad bowl (I ended up buying a small sink) but awesome to see the idea works out just great! Might steal some other ideas for my own Defender Camper build 😉Cheers!
日本から😃こんにちは、
restore楽しそうですね。
天井・壁・床に断熱塗料・防音シート・断熱材を施すと更に夏場の猛暑や冬場の厳しい寒さもFFヒーターと電気敷き毛布を兼用すれば過ごし易いですよ。万が一の為に水を使わないトイレのラップポントイレ電力12Vを使うとパックされ凝固剤で固めるので匂いも無く燃えるゴミで出す事も出来て便利ですよ。素敵なキャンピングカーライフを楽しんで下さいね。レストアの参考になりました有難う😃。
Thank you very much!
Thank you so much for inspiring me! I want to convert but too many choices and not sure which way to go! I love that water tank and pump set! I like that you did not make too many holes to secure things.
This was really fun to watch. I love going camping and this would be an amazing vehicle to go play in! I love how you used the space. It feels SO spacious for being such a small area. I feel so inspired. Thanks for sharing!!
I haven't watched this build for more than ten minutes before because I want to use my defender as a five seater rather than a two seater. I am. glad I took the time to watch it all the way through because I learned a lot and you gave me ideas how to make my landy right for me rather than trying to duplicate someone else. Many thanks
This is not a camper , this is a one man Home 😊👍
I've watched a lot of designs but this is the most practical and simple way of building. Great Idea
Having recently subscribed to your channel I'm really loving the content. I think that you've done an amazing job fitting the new layout. Sorry to hear about your father's passing but a nice touch to dedicate this to him. Looking forward to seeing you in future Vlogs.
Men don’t mind let’s talk more work
Love what you guys do to these Land Rovers. Excellent work.
So lovely including your Dad's bits in 🙏🙏🙏
Yeah I like that! Thank you buddy
Just so inspired by this Jack Old chap! Have been binge watching your channel getting so much inspiration and motivation to do my 110! Amazing Old chap! 🙏 TSD Huge well done.
Haha amazing!! Thank you. Glad it’s inspiring you 😁
Really nice, practical, real-world build with lots of good ideas.
Also, good on ya for making this one single video rather than a "series" of mini-videos.
I LOVE This!! Can’t wait to see Boris one day! X
Ayyyy thank you so much! You must! Maybe even borrow for a night!
Brilliant mate, Looks great! Really amazing use of the space 👌 everything you need !
Excellent work! You should be very proud! That looks like a very welcoming and useful place to spend time. Sorry about your Dad. I’m sure he would have loved your accomplishments here!
Great job and even more impressive that you're working with just two power tools. For the LED they sell aluminum extensions that the stops sit in and you can put a diffuser over it so it's not too much glare from the lighting elements
Thank you so much! And that’s a great idea
Looks stunning Jack!!
great video as always Jack and I loved the little bits you added in tribute to your Dad and the picture at the end, im sure he would've loved it
Wow. Well done!!! Looks pretty cool and useful. Wish you lots of fun with Boris.
Job well done,Sir.I like the professional conversions same as the van conversions but there is something better about a self conversion which for some reason just makes it better.
By far the best layout for the space, well thought out and it looks great. How is it on the move?
Very very lovely build. Have nice journeys with Boris 👍😎🇩🇪
What a fantastic build! i'll be using this as a template for myn, thanks mate!
Such a great video. You’ve done great and I’m borrowing plenty of ideas. Your Dad would’ve been proud!
Thanks so much! That's really kind of you.
Excellent work! Just about to start doing my 110 and you've given me some great ideas :-) Do you have a link for the water tank/tap? That looks like a perfect fit :-)
I’d like some info on the water tank/tap too!
Me 3!
素晴らしい仕上がりです。どんどん出来上がっていく様を見てるのも楽しめました。
ちょっとしたトラブルも楽しんでいる様子が良いです。ありがとうございます。
Thank you so much!!
Lovely - I am very impressed. I assume that you properly fused that wiring which goes behind the passenger side panel? Last thing you need is a short there and the wires catching fire. For the under counter lights - I'd have been tempted to put a reed switch on those so that the light comes on whenever you open the doors. A future improvement, maybe - and it'll free up the buttons for other things.
Built, not bought!
Top effort cobber.
Cheers for sharing.
I love the rig. Looks awesome.
Cheers from Canada. I love this Defender, but you had me laughing when you spoke of cutting ply-sheeting with a jigsaw!!! Cheers mate!
Brilliant work Jacko!
Fantastic job! Love it mate.
Absolutely wonderful video! Love the defender, great work!!
Glad you enjoyed it. Thanks so much!
Loved this what a great watch well done mate great build 👍
A great ‘warts and all’ production full of entertainment and ideas. Bravo mate! 👍🏻🙏🦘
Great vid and a lovely tribute to your father, all the best
You did a good video here. Nice to see the full process with enough detail to get a proper idea of what you di.
Very nice. I like the blinds instead of curtains. Also. You have a rear door sliding window. If you can rig a 12v fan to that, you could get great ventilation with the. Cracking of the front Windows.
P.S.
The front compartment by the Jackery were to had to notch out for the electric panel,that would make a great emergency toilet compartment.....
Nice job, you certainly made the most of the space.
Great video, nice job. Not my cup of tea but immediately after watching I was staring into space eating a mince pie, thinking about my 109 and the overnight camp set up I’ve got that means I can use it as a shit wagon for the rest of the year. This entails building a swing away rear spare carrier. And the problem there is my number plate is offside and the tyre could just about obscure it. Thanks to to your vid I’ve now had a solution pop into my head. Have a numberplate and light which attaches to the spare when the spares outside when I’m using it as a camper ( like a bike carrier on the back of an estate should have) mounting problem solved, and your video started that mental ball rolling 👍happy Christmas!
You make me to rethink the campering ideas.... Great job mate!!! Really I'm impressed. Unfortunately I need a camper for 4 people to live in so I can't have same as yours.
Yeah it’s a big consideration isn’t it!
Nice job!! It still has that all-important “home made” feel but is really plush - but with a bit more of a clean, airy feel. Nicely done!
Superb! Really well built project and loved your visuals and edit! Thanks
Looks amazing. I will keep a look out for it at billing.
Nice build ! Defender is my little dream, I hope that one day I m gonna build something like this for me and my son ! I m glad that I found your channel, thank you !
Thank you so much for commenting! Cheers :)
That is an amazing job you have done there, I going to do mine slightly different to yours, seen so many camper builds but this by far is the sort of thing im wanting to do, Im a wildlife photographer and make videos, so all my camera and lighting equipment will have to go aboard as well, but some great ideas there Thank you and will follow you to see how things are going. & yes i am a drag Queen too so all my Girlie stuff too Ha ha I need a bigger truck
Dude, just wow! The doors are a good touch, I did the same and haven’t regretted it, this vid is great!
Thanks so much!!
Beautiful!
Amazing build. I love your Defender. 😍
Because the LRD has a modular roof and side panels, I have always considered this to be a good basis to adapt to a high top or elevating roof, giving a low profile for driving and maximum internal living space for camping.
For maximum effect in keeping out water, Butyl Tape will more than likely be better than the OEM Seal Strip.
I like your presentation and narration and have subscribed to follow your build.
Very good result from day one!
Roof looks gorgeous, though I an surprised that you didn't insulate the floor, especially if that doubles as the sleeping area.
Very odd that your supplier shipped the insulation in two separate deliveries, and quite irritating for you I would imagine.
Day two sees nice improvements, and I particularly like your drawer access, radiused corners look really good in travel cabins, and yours look the business.
You started well and are continuing in that theme.
Its now looking really gorgeous!
You've got plenty of storage and when rained in, you've got a lovely interior to be in.
Do you recall where you got the hinges for the kitchen access hatches?
You've done a superb job on your LRD, and despite your self criticism I believe that you will inspire many viewers to consider doing a build out for themselves.
What you've done you've done well, and you should be proud of the finished result.
Cleanest & usefull design i eves seen,love the details too,really good works dude ✌️
Thanks a ton! Tried to make it as usable as possible
Well done mate ! Looks amazing 👍🏼
looks sick and brilliant use of space, nice one 👍
Mate….. you have done a spectacular job. I bet in a couple years you will rip it all out and refine it again …. Well done champ 👍🇦🇺🥃
Hahaha thank you mate!!
A great project and awesome results!
Thank you! Cheers for watching
Awesome Landy
Nice work. Well done seems so cozy, congratulations…
Beautiful work, Congratulations for the Defender conversion and you tiny garage.. Three things I think you have to do.. fit a fridge, instal a grey water tank underneath the sink (there is enough space inside the wheel arch) and install a diesel heater (I don’t know if you have installed yet). A great solution is the sliding window on the rear door!! Best wishes from Tuscany!!
Thanks for the tips!
@@BorisTheDefender where did you find the sliding window? Could you post the link? Thanks
Aménagement réussi 😉 le résultat est vraiment au top!
Merci beaucoup 😋
Awesome ! I love it, good job man
Looks incredible!
beautiful build. I wish I could try this in my ford expedition. thank you for such a lovely video.
Glad you liked it!
Looks great! Nice job and thanks for sharing.
Condolences on your loss. liked to watch your build. Great to see the hole process from bits and parts to final product 🙂 Question if I may: The water container,… did you build that yourself?
Fantastic build well done 👏
Looks great!!!!
Nice!💎✨👌Yeah that thicker insulation is so much better!✨👍 This is the ultimate stealth camper car! #Defender👑
Great video and great job. Inspiration for my next car, Mrs cars on camera really liked the idea!
Looks great that mate. You’ve done a good job on it. Enjoyed watching the video 👍👍
Great review.
Nice one bro! Really great set up.
Thanks for video! After few years spent with my Defender 110, and many interior evolutions, maybe this year I will make perfect on for us. We have roof top tent but I hate it and we prefer to sleep inside.
What plywood dimensions are you using? Is it 12mm everywhere or something larger for horizontal spaces ? How many sheets of plywood have you used ? How wide is the space between kitchen and right storage containers? I've made plans for similar build to yours, but with raised section in the space where second row seats are right now.
Great job well done 👍🏻
Incredible mate!
Thanks so much. Inspirational.
I learned something so special here.
You are so welcome! Cheers!
Awesome job!
Thank you soo much, to look what you`ve done so perfectly. Very nice work ans excellent Filmer as well. Greeting from a german Camper Friend 👌
Great build and result. :)
Excellent work! The carpet is reminiscent of the one in “The Office”. I wonder, how has all the added weight reflected on the performance of the car on and off road?
That is epic mate.
Absolutely mint mate! Great looking build! :)
Cheers!!!
Awesome job dude!!
Awesome video! Has definitely inspired me to give this a go in the future!!
You should! Thanks for watching buddy!
This is absolutely amazing
Fantastic job I love it you’ve gave me a few different ideas thanks for sharing top job
You’re welcome, cheers!
Top job, looks great 😎
Awesome 2.0 build! Happy Trails
Thanks! You too!
Brilliant very well done
Thank you
Wow just great wish I had one
Great work, bro!
Wow! wow and wow! what an absolutely beautiful job! Thank you so much for sharing, I love this so much my absolute dream :)
You are so welcome! Thank you
Very nicely done, entertaining too.
Really loving this video. I'm looking at switching from a van to a defender and I'm gathering up as much info as I can and I'm loving your channel.
I'm toying with the roller shutter side defenders as there's a few of those on the market, but not really sure.
You're not too far from me, I'm south west Devon, I note the trago bag😂 Always a bargain to be had!
Nice touch that kiwi sign ;-)
You know it! Haha I got that in wanaka
@@BorisTheDefender Wanaka... great place!!
That is wicked
Awesome build!
Awesome mate.
Thank you buddy!
