- Is the Citroen Relay, the Peugeot Boxer or the Fiat Ducato the right van for your Motorhome or camper conversion? In this video I try to show you the what you get for your money with this type of van.

Thanks mate, this is the only post on CZcams that answers my question 👍
Thanks for the comment. That's the whole point of making the video so at least I know there was a point to it.
I am 192cm and van is 193cm height. Great.
Good stuff mate
Keep going mate you're doing well.
Thank you for the video.
You're welcome. Hope it was useful.

Yes.
Hi, great informative video. Can also I ask where you got that magnetic work light from?
So what's the update? I'm really interested as I'm looking to do the same build.
ask for the milk on the side ;) in a little espresso cup. and make sure you get them to leave the teabag in!
Thanks for the tip. To be honest I've gone off normal tea altogether now. I've started drinking green tea with lemon. Not a life choice just a taste one.
was hoping you would discuss differences between the branding, are they identical apart from the badges, or have different engine options / trims etc?
As far as I know there are a couple of extra engine options with the Fiat but otherwise identical.
Apparently the Fiat only comes with the Fiat engine.

Hi did you get the van converted if so any video of this?
Hi, thanks for asking. Iv'e made significant progress with it and I'll put video of it out soon.
When you measured across the van for the bed and you said it was 71 inches or 6ft 1”
What the Measurement across the van beyond the plywood to gain the maximum width as I’m seriously considering buying a Citroen relay because my sprinter van is 61 inches maximum and the bed or i should say mattress is 63”” so in the end I bought a foam mattress and it’s uncomfortable as hell sheets don’t fit si I’m now thinking sprinter get rid and buy a Citroen relay as we love seaside trips
Looking forward to your reply

Hi. Sorry it's late. I've only just seen this message. I did manage to get a full double mattress in with just a little tightness in the corners due to the upright supports. There's still room for some minimal insulation too. Just a thought though. I know that IKEA beds and bedding is made to their own sizes. I couldn't tell you 8f they come out longer or shorter but it's worth checking that if you haven't already. Could save you changing the whole van.
Well the sprinter Iv got is getting a bit old. But it is a fantastic van tho it’s not old old but on a 2011 plate and only on 120.000 miles so someone will snap it up. And I need a project to keep my brain occupied. And I like the boxer vans
How's the van coming?
Hi thanks for asking. I can't pretend it's anything like finished but I have made what i think can be described as significant progress. Enough that I was able to spend a few nights in it down in Cornwall making vids for my other channel. I'm tied up with other things at the moment but i hope to get a video done soon showing all progress to date.
How'd it go?
Hi thanks for asking. It's still a work in progress and I'd say about half done. I will put a new video up soon showing my progress. Are you building one yourself?
@@missionmotorhome9913 I'm looking for a van to buy at the moment, probably going to go with a Boxer due to the width and the prices for Euro 6 don't seem too bad. Looking forward to your update.
I expected a comparison...
I am doing the same thing in the same van........why is everyone doing this...I know why I am doing it ?
Probably because buying one already done is so expensive.
I bought a Fiat Talento, the worst mistake I ever made. The Turbo failed after approximately 13000 miles, the van has only now done 17000 miles and it will cost £1000 for a new Turbo and £2500 labour to fit it within the Stellantis network. Terrible quality in my opinion.
