Detailed Information
Vehicle Description

Attention all adventure seekers. Do not let international travel restrictions ruin your chance to go on an adventure or two! It’s time to explore the UK or Europe and all of its beauty, in your own stunning, converted VW Crafter.

The van is inspired by the luxurious, classic Scandinavian design, with simplicity, minimalism and functionality all key aspects to create a perfect living space.

Includes:
MOT which expires in April 2023
In the last year, the van has been fully serviced, new gear cables fitted, all belts replaced, injectors replaced and fuel filter professionally cleaned. The van has since been on a 4 month Euro trip with no problems.
New engine in Dec 2019 – The Van had done 125k when new engine was installed (replacement engine had done 25k and since done 55k) all paperwork provided

The van is kitted out with the highest quality appliances and services, that include:
A Thetford Gas Hob
A Propex Mains Electric heater
A 50l Webasto 12V fridge/ freezer
Impressive Victron power system including 1600/70 Multiples compact inverter / charger, Orion DC/DC split charger, Smart MPPT solar controller, 1 x 100W solar panels and 260-Ah lead carbon AGM deep cycle batteries
Two large boat leisure batteries
2 solar panels (250W in total) and direct DA charge from the engine
An 70-litre fresh water tank with Sureflo Trail King 7 pump and fiamma accumulator – supplying hot and cold water to the outdoor shower and the kitchen sink
Diesel heater so you can travel in comfort both in winter and summer

By day, the van can be used as an office on wheels, with your very own breakfast bar, as well as a solid oak desk/table. With views outside of the side window, it is a great option for those that can work from a laptop ‘from home’.
After enjoying views of the sunset from either of the windows, whilst sitting on the sofa; on the fixed double bed with the back doors open or closed; it’s time to turn the breakfast bar into a cocktail bar.

Now it’s time to chill, watching the day turn to night over a few glasses of wine or the option to turn the table area into your private cinema lounge! Within seconds the office area can become the prefect space to put your feet up, sit back and watch a movie (screen supplied projector isn’t). Simply screw the projector onto the ceiling mount (provided), pop up the cinema screen and you’re good to go. You can also move the projector into the bedroom, using the plain white wall as the screen.

When bedtime comes, drift off to sleep in the lux memory foam, made to measure mattress.

Layout & Design
The first thing you will notice is the amount of space the interior has. Even though it has three
primary areas: bedroom, kitchen/bar & lounge/office.

Bedroom
Bed size: width: 135cm Length; 172cm (same width as a double, 18cm shorter)
Large Roof light window includes inbuilt blinds
Rear door windows ideal for those morning views
2 type plug sockets including USB, USB C & 240V
touch /dimming lights
Ceiling bracket for the projector- which is included in this package along with a 50’’ pull up screen

Kitchen and Bar Area
One of the standout areas of this conversion is the kitchen and bar space.
Supplied with bespoke kitchen cabinets and draws, fitted with a brand new design of locks, no more tacky plastic pop out handles, the metal self-locking design acts as a nice handle as well as locking the doors/draws into place.
2 x 1.4m oak worktops in the middle section of the van. One side is 600mm in depth and as well as the aforementioned items consists of appliances including:
• 1000mm of work top to prepare meals
• 6 draws & under fridge storage
• A 1200mm length x 20cm wide shelf that runs above the 600mm side.
• With a wide walkway (700mm) there is plenty of room to manoeuvre between the two worktops
• 4 touch dimmable lights

On the opposite side is the breakfast/cocktail bar area which includes
• 1.4m in length & by 430mm width worktop
• Fixed to the counter a Swan Nordic one press coffee machine (new)
• 2 type plug sockets
• Swan one touch coffee machine

Lounge / Office:
Window either side so there is plenty of natural light. The lounge space includes:
• Oak table with 2 fiamma aluminon legs making it solid
3 people can easily fit around the table
Lots of storage space under the sofa and the single seat/footrest

Roof
2 fixed solar panels which makes the van fully capable of being off-grid for extended periods of time. It’s done 4 months completely off-grid with no issues.

Garage/Rear storage under the bed- assessable from the back doors
This section is where a lot of the main van services are stored. These include:
• 3.7kg Propane Gas tank
• Victron inverter charger + solar control, Bluetooth link
• Sureflo Water pump
• 2 x deep cycle leisure batteries
• DC / DC charger
12V and 240V Fuse boards
Storage for the table and space for more personal items if necessary.
Outdoor hot/cold shower- removable hose, with the input fixed on the side of the Van.

Cab Area
The bulkhead has been removed and blocked using a stud wall, this was due to practicality, to
maximise storage and reduce the weight of the van. It has a safety screen which means you can access the rear or front of the van if necessary.

This gives the cab a more relaxed feel when driving as you are not distracted by looking into the
camper area. It also gives the living area a much more personal homely feel, as you cannot see
through to the cab area.

The van is extremely easy to drive!!!

The Cab has had a brand-new alpain sound system installed, stereo (DAB & Maps). It has also had a new reversing camera fitted that links up to the Alpain stereo.

The van is fitted out with an impressive alarm/sensor system fitted by VW (including the rear van)
There is storage under the passenger seat.

VW Jack is also supplied under the floor.

Summary
This van is a second home, but on wheels, a lot cheaper & with no stamp duty. You have the benefit of going all over the UK and Europe off-grid. Not to mention the potential to add an additional income as this van could be rented out easily for £200
plus per night (£1000-£1400 a week).

Please only serious buyers get in touch.

Note: since the picture were taken, some minor amends have been made:
Security window added between rear and front of van for access in emergencies. No change to aesthetic
Hanging wardrobe added for increased comfort
Oak and chrome ‘pantry’ added above the kitchen counter on one side

Pictures of amends will be added soon, but also available on request.
