    Being in the process of finding a reputable top-notch builder for my L3 H2 Mercedes Sprinter office/camper van conversion, since I am useless at DIY. I have seen loads of DIY and Professionally converted Camper vans, this includes vans converted in the UK, Europe, USA and Australia, from which I came to the conclusion that the quality from Europe (German, Dutch, Swiss, Italian, Poland, etc) seems to be the ones to beat. Germans, Americans and Australians, to mention a few, are also focused on off-road camper vans. Watching this video, looking at the quality of Andy’s work, which I believe would be way better in person, I can finally say, I have found one UK based camper van conversion that can fully compete with the European made ones! Top Quality Andy!, you need to open a CZcams channel for promoting and marketing! Note, there maybe more UK builders like Andy out there, that I haven’t seen.

    • @urbanarkoverland
      @urbanarkoverland  Před 4 měsíci

      So over here. 144 is called a mid wheel base. 170 is a long wheel base.
      Same chassis.
      The 313/315/316/319 relate to the chassis weight and engine size. Starts with a 3 being the 3.5 tonne. Starts with a 5. T tonne 👍🏻
