Professionally handcrafted, off-grid, all-season 2018 Citroen L4H2

AVAILABLE NOW – professionally handcrafted, off-grid, all-season camper van.

Slide open the door to reveal stunning white walls, expertly crafted cabinetry, stunning burnt orange upholstery, and carefully chosen soft furnishings.

This van has been lovingly converted by Yorkshire’s finest trades, each a top-rated specialist in their field – cabinetry, auto electrics, gas safety installations, caravan water services. The units are built in birch ply, fabrics and furnishings were carefully chosen with the help of an interior designer, all seats professionally upholstered.

Power Setup
***************
The van is built to be off-grid so you won’t need to plug in anywhere for power (handy for park ups away from it all and last minute campsite bookings – where electric hook-up availability is rare).

The 2 leisure batteries are charged by a solar power (on roof) and by battery-to-battery charger (while you’re driving). There are 2 x regular (240v) plug sockets, and 3 x usb charge points (plus 2 in the cab when driving).

Externally there is an electric hook up point if on a campsite or visiting friends, but this has never been needed, not even in winter (due to solar).

Heating & Ventilation
**************************
Centrally heated by a thermostatically controlled Truma 4e combi-boiler and vents around the van, which allow you to set the temperature, at any time of year. It’s super-easy – reach the dial while in bed, and hit 21C in 10 mins, on the coldest winter day. A vent in the shower room dries towels and clothes within a few hours.

Ventilation is provided by a 10-speed MaxxFan roof fan – which runs quietly, even if it’s raining outside (no steamed up windows) – and a large openable skylight which lets light flood into the living space (with built-in bug and blackout screens).

The cab has air-con for when driving, and heating vents can blow cool air in the summer. Sound-deadened, and fully insulated, with vapour barrier throughout, this van is snug and quiet inside, warm in winter, and cooler in the summer.

Onboard fresh and grey water tanks (both hidden underneath) make it perfect for off grid adventures. The indoor shower is in a private, ventilated cubicle inside the main living space, which also houses a Dometic portable toilet.

Plus there’s an outdoor shower out of the garage for rinsing down after the beach or hosing your bike or walking boots, and a full size sink in the kitchen area for washing up. All taps run cold, and hot – powered by an easy-to-use combi-boiler, which runs off LPG (gas) in an underslung tank, out of the way.

Extra Information
*********************
The van was designed and built with outdoor enthusiasts in mind – all-season, off-grid (onboard heating & hot water & waste water storage, indoor & outdoor showers, no need to plug in for power) and heaps of secure garage space (enough to store a combo of 4 full-size MTB or road bikes, and still leave space for bags, helmets, climbing gear, walking boots….) all out of sight, with additional deadlocks to maximise security.

Despite its size, the van is easy to drive, and comes with a reverse camera. You can park it in a supermarket car park with its nose sticking out.

Rental potential
**************************
Over the last 12 months, when not using it ourselves, the van was rented out, via Quirky Campers, and earned £12,000 (less booking fees), and 4.9 stars reviews.
Should you wish to do the same, it is fully-equipped, safety tested, ready to go. We can even provide you with the detailed checklists we’ve created to ensure smooth handovers, safe and careful use of the van, and easy returns. And professionally taken photos to market the van.

Very low maintenance
**************************
All parts and equipment are the highest spec, chosen for quality, safety and reliability, and installed and tested regularly by professional trades. Plus, being a 2-seat belt / 2-berth, it’s never over-occupied, so less chance of damage / wear and tear. We’ve not allowed pets either (which hasn’t affected bookings).

Have any questions?
************************
We’re very reluctant to sell the van because it’s been such a joy to us, and everyone that’s borrowed it, but we are buying a new house and could do with the cash.

If you’d like to find out more, please do get in touch. Very happy to help.
