Youve inspired me to plan a van build with that extending bathroom idea- line it with waterproofed caulked board and a rubber wiper seal , and itd be ideal for fitting a shower cubical with cassette toilet feeding into a greywater tsnk under the van

Any idea why no one is doing a pop top for the crafter without the bed, same as the T6 has, I have the low roof version and would love a pop top so i can walk around upright, no need for a bed up there, just want it to have more head room and feel light and airy

I think the hot water, first thing in the morning issue, is easerly overcome with either a AC kettle or filling a thermos after the nights cooking. I think if space & noise are a factor then the Wallace wins handsdown. Good video. Thanks 🤗

Can the kitchen be on a slider so can cook with the door open and move the seating area behind the driver seat.. as there is a pop up there will not be a space for an exhaust.. ( to remove the smells and condensation)

I've just had one of these completed and couldn't be happier. Firstly they found and fixed a couple of issues I was unaware of. Second, I'm now a lot more relaxed knowing that everything has been profesionally checked. Finally the service was excellent, as good as or better than many other companies I've dealt with. A total joy, I can't praise them and this check more highly. Thanks guys.

Great vid, don't have a van at the moment, but have hired a Cali on a couple of occasions and a van is in my not too distant future. Couple of things, under the roof bed the wooden slats are on show, do you have an option to cover those? Is the diesel hob night heater as efficient as a webasto blown air unit? Finally Transporter HQ do an after market chair carrier which fixes to the rear door, would that be an option? Cheers (Loving the vans, especially the Full Type Approval)

It’s going to be interesting to see how the T7 is received as VW has been a very popular vehicle for many years. Has anyone got any ideas about the engines that will be fitted. I believe the current ford diesel that is referred to as “wet belt” seem to have a bad reputation.
@JerbaCampers8 ай бұрын
The wet belt thing is one of those things people of heard of but don't actually know anyone it happened to. The van just needs to be serviced when recommended and won't be a problem. The issue is very old vans in the past not ever being checked.

@stevezodiac4918 ай бұрын
Volkswagen tried that with the id Buzz. They couldn't get the weight down below the 3.5 Tonne licence limit, with all the battery weight added to the camper van as fitted out. This vehicle is heavier still. They could put less batteries in it though, to save weight, but most people normally camp outside a 50 miles range limit lol.

There are the 2.0-litre units that powered the previous generation with a choice of 110, 136, 150 and 170hp power outputs. Later this year or at the start of next they will release the 2.5-litre petrol engine with a 65kWh battery hybrid and a full EV.
@JerbaCampers8 ай бұрын
They are going to increase the weight limit that your license is allowed to drive to 4.25 tonnes. They have already agreed in Europe and there is legislation going through parliament in the UK greenfleet.net/features/26102023/changes-425-tonne-electric-van-operating-rules#:~:text=The%20government%20has%20announced%20changes%20to%20the%20operation%20requirements%20of,extra%20weight%20of%20the%20battery.
