Detailed Information
Vehicle Description

This is a 2020 VW Crafter CR35, finished in a standout factory blue that’s as eye-catching as it is practical. It’s powered by a reliable 1968cc diesel engine and meets Euro 6 emissions standards, meaning it’s ULEZ-compliant and ready for city driving as well as long countryside escapes. The van is in good mechanical condition with solid bodywork and no known issues. Recent overhaul of the emissions system at a VW Lookers means the van is driving cleaner than ever.

Conversion Description

Whether you’re wild camping in the Scottish Highlands or hooked up on a pitch in the New Forest, this much-loved van is fully equipped for comfortable, reliable, off-grid adventures—whatever the season.

At its heart is a Shepherd Stove™ multi-fuel burner, perfect for keeping things warm and cosy on chilly nights—and yes, you can cook directly on top of it too (we’ve made everything from flatbreads to morning coffee on ours). The van runs fully off-grid thanks to a custom-built 12V solar system with 200AH leisure battery, powering lights, USB charging points, the fridge and water pump. For campsite stays, there’s a 240V electric hook-up for all your plug-in needs.

The 70L freshwater tank sits neatly behind the driver’s seat and feeds a full-size sink, with grey water draining into a hidden internal waste tank. A landlord-certified twin gas hob makes camp cooking safe and simple, and there’s plenty of worktop space to prep meals. The dining table slots over the rear platform bed and comfortably seats two—before transforming into a generous 200 × 170 cm sleeping area (or keep it snug at 140 × 170 cm for quicker setup).

Inside, you’ll find clever storage throughout, with easy access front and rear for everything from muddy boots to that essential bottle of red. There’s also a compact composting toilet stowed under the bed—discreet, clean, and ideal for middle-of-the-night emergencies.

This van has been a true labour of love, built by hand in South London using upcycled materials sourced from charity shops and local finds. We’ve poured our hearts into it—always staying on top of maintenance, with no corners cut on the things that matter.

✔️ Landlord-certified gas installation
✔️ Weighbridge certificate shows just under 800 kg payload available
✔️ Quirky Approved for listing

It’s now time for the next chapter, and we’d love to see Smurf head off on new adventures with someone who’ll love it just as much.
