Vehicle Description

Sadly parting with my much-loved self-build van. Bought in April 24 with the dream of travelling full-time through Europe. Since then, life has taken a turn I’ve moved into a house and with personal and work commitments, I no longer have the time to finish it.

This van is not a profit project I’ve put thousands into the build and mechanics, and I’d love to see someone take it on and use it for what it was truly built for. I will only sell to someone with intentions to finish the build and travel.

Mechanical Maintenance & Upgrades:
Just MOT’d (Jan 2025) – no advisories
Serviced every year and all issues fixed promptly

Recent upgrades:
New brake discs and pads (front and back) – September 2024
New caliper and handbrake cable – September 2024 (cost over 1,000)
4 new tyres, shock absorber replacement, and ball joints replaced during the April 2024 service

Drives like a dream – it’s a very special van

Private plate NOT included – will be sold on original plate: SK18 USW

1 previous owner who looked after the van, and I have all receipts and documentation

Conversion Progress So Far:
Fully insulated (walls, floor, ceiling)
Plywood floors + walls with vinyl flooring installed, I have spare.
Two large sliding windows – my favorite part of the build, bringing in natural light and air
Carpeted doors for a cozy feel
IKEA bed slats with small double mattress
IKEA kitchen cabinet (installed)

High-End Electrical System (Worth 4500):
Professionally designed with full schematics included. Perfect for full-time off-grid living:
Victron 360W solar panels (roof mounted)
Victron 100/30 MPPT
Renogy 40A DC-DC Charger
Renogy 2000W Inverter
Victron SmartShunt
12-way fuse box
280Ah 12V LiFePO4 Lithium battery
550A 48V Battery Isolator
Victron Lynx Distributor
Double Pole Consumer Unit

Wiring has been started but not finished – perfect for someone who wants to finish it themselves or get an electrician to complete.

Extras Included (Uninstalled but Supplied):
Pre-cut Ikea kitchen worktop
Roof fan (purchased & ready to install)
70s Style Custom Sink Bowl
More insulation
All wiring, fuses, bolts, connectors, etc.

You won’t need to buy much more to get this finished – all the big stuff is done or included.

Photos & Videos Available:
I’ve documented the full conversion process with hundreds of photos and videos, which I’m happy to share with serious buyers.

This van has been built with care and attention. With the right person, it will make an amazing full-time home
