I agree, that kitchen is definitely the highlight of the build. That worktop is fabulous!
Also I prefer the dual sofa - worktop layout to the traditional rock-and-roll bed popular in VW campers. Means you can longe / nap without turning the entire van into "bed mode"!
Thank you so much 🫶🏼. We are going to be bias of course and say we do too... who wants to sit up all day in the van 😄
Nice and simple, power bank for lekky, thoughtful nooks and crannies!
Thank you 😊
Very nice indeed, I like how simple it is with no fixed gas or water tanks. Great video.
Thank you 🙏🏼
This looks really nicely built, and well specified too !!
Thank you John, another build with our love poured in to it. We can't wait to see it out on some adventures 😊
Looks really lovely. You are so clever fitting so much into the small space.
Thank you so much, we couldn’t quite believe how much could fit in there, it feels like we did the impossible 😄
BEAUTiful van. So inspiring to see what can be made of the space in these caddy vans. ✨
Thank you 🙏🏼
Beautiful work guys 👍
Thank you 😊
That's a lovely micro-camper you've built👍Being completely honest it's probably one of the best if not thee best I've seen...great job guys👍
Wow, thank you so much 🥰 going to have to quote this on the van sale listing 😂
Wow love this!!
Qué bonita quedó su camper. Espero pasen momentos muy divertidos en ella ❤❤❤
Lovely. Mini camp wagon ❤
Thanks for a interesting video, I thinking on building a new small camper.
That’s awesome, good luck with it 😊
Super!
Thank you 😊
so many fabulous ideas
And Sam would believe they all came from him🙄😂
It looks amazing ❤ i wish i could afford it
Thank you so much, we are open to reasonable offers 😊
Very compact toilet no extra privacy
Amazing job and great video. Just bought the exact same model and looking to convert. Do you guys have any resources on the wiring and insulation? Looking to attempt something similar ❤
Wicked!! I hope it goes well, is it also ex British Gas? We learnt it all ourselves,this is our series on how to build a campervan :) czcams.com/play/PLgStkN8OaBMqa2wKjY8azC3dBuhR7bwjI.html&si=ShpHMYdXY-WBawh- , we go over how to do wiring etc :) let me know if you need anything else ✌🏼
Love the van! Quick question, what size / where did you get the sink basin? I'm looking for a sink for our conversation, and this one looks about right!
Thank you 😊 The sink is from ikea, this is it www.ikea.com/gb/en/p/boholmen-inset-sink-1-bowl-stainless-steel-s99157501/
@@nicroams Thank you! Loving the videos, the dork build series has been great inspiration and entertainment for me!
this is something im planning to make for myself one day. everyday car to use for work and vacation car for summer time, simple water plumbing and use of large portable battery than few car batterys to hide somewhere whit wires and needs to take out every time when in work use. and i like the toilet idea. is it smell proof tho?
That sounds perfect! what kind of size vehicle would you be looking to convert? I wouldn’t say theyre smell proof haha, but if you manage the smell, its absolutely fine, we use vinegar to neutralise the urine and sawdust for the 💩
@@nicroamssomething similar size to this one and plans are still just ideas in the head. likely waiting my current car to break down before that
love the build. I want to do something like that myself.
This is a 2 seater version right ?
I would love to take a 4 seater and just take out 1 seat permanently and keep one in (semipermanently) that i can take out, whenever i go full vanlife mode, so i can take more people..
Is that something you have already thought about ?
Thank you! Ah ok is that the caddy maxi life? This van is for sale so not on the cards 😂, I think it would lose too much space in the van too for a seat, depends what your priorities are, if you plan on taking two extra people in your van everyone, it’s unlikely you would all sleep in there?
This is really really sick, is this the LWB or SWB model?
Thank you! It’s the Maxi LWB 😊
How to ship to US? :) Also do you offer Wire Shelf, zero wood, super light-weight builds for highest mpg + lowest mold option?
Pay us the import cost ;) 😂never heard of these concepts, be interesting to see what you mean, our builds are always built with weight reduction in mind 🤟🏼.
Do you reckon it would be possible to make the bed a little longer? I'm 190cm
Yee, just don’t have a storage unit at the end. But also, this bed is 190 in the middle section due to the curve in the doors 😊
Do you recommend sound proofing these caddy’s?
The bitumen self adhesive sound deadening strips? Sure, it helps reduce an excess noise from rain, wind etc
@@nicroams thanks, do you do van builds yourself if I bought the materials etc…
The bed looks a bit narrow to me. We have a Caddy Maxi which has a full width bed. Not sure how it would have worked, but I might have made the kitchen unit the same height as the sofa and had a cover for the sink to allow a wider mattress. Cool build though.
The bed width is ample enough for this size van, it is a caddy 😂. Not sure how what would have worked? The bed height is pretty much the height of the kitchen but it’s not for sleeping on 😂.
Can you sit normal?.or with your head leaning on the schouders?
Yes you can sit normal but if you’re over 6ft then unlikely
No diesel heater?
Yeah dude, its next to the shower 🤟🏼😂
wheres the solar panel from?
It was from the power station provider Allpowers :)
Still available
Yes 😊
No shower..
Not in a micro camper, you’re welcome to pack your own portable one though 😊
Glass half empty kinda guy, huh? All the work, creativity and passion gone into creating something so beautiful and practical but all you can say is "no shower..." - bet you're fun at parties 🥴
I really wanted to watch this but you are acting way over the top like Americans do on TV shows.
Ok, we’ll try be less us next time 😂
You were getting on each others nervs in a bigger van,why a smaller now ?? This is not you. You want last long in this . Anyway, nice to see the 2 of you again
Hi Frank, we built this van for sale which we stated multiple times in this video. Thanks for the concern with our relationship though 😊
