The van comes with full interior pine cladding (stained and varnished), stunning oak styled flooring and two lovely barn doors with window sills. The doors extend to the side for protection against the elements or can be fully extended to provide further space to the rear. The van comes with white netting curtains, beautiful ceramic/glass tiling and sleek oak worktops which make it feel like a home from home. Below the worktops are cupboards and there are also 4 spacious shelves offering different storage options. There is a smaller wooden shelf with two white storage containers on the side wall and a black hexagon mirror situated on the other side above the sink and tap. There is a cooler box with designated storage space.

Conversion description – See below for full spec. If you would like any further photos please feel free to ask.
The water system has a Shurflo Trail King Water Pump – 12v/30psi – this pump is a heavy duty pump which has lots of capability should Vinnie’s future owner wish to install further water appliances e.g. outdoor shower etc. It includes built in check valves preventing back flow into the clean water tank and also has run dry capability. The pump has a switch control and includes a thermal overload on the motor for peace of mind. The pump provides a high pressure water system and is capable of 10.6 litres flow per minute. There is a hand made 30cm resin sink with black push plug. High quality black resin tap with hot water function for future use. The hot water valve is currently tapered off however would be a simple fix to install a heater and accompanying parts. 2 x 10 litre tanks for Freshwater and Greywater with accompanying P trap which reduces wast water smell and relevant piping.
