A 4x4 ‘work’ sprinter with a high roof and decent spec cabin as a white panel van is north of £90k now in the UK…

Nice video Shaun. Great to see so many examples of MAN / Crafter conversion. We couldn't make it to the show this time, but are currently having a MAN converted by Dirty Weekender and because of the brilliant bespoke way they build, we can still tweak bits as we go along. The bigger MAN / Crafter / Sprinter definitely seems the way a lot of converters are now going. Deb and Dave T

We went to the show as thinking about these... insane prices!
@johnmackay5288Ай бұрын
…off the scale prices. Who can honestly afford £200K for a Sprinter conversion?? Crazy.

Really like Shaun's constant enthusiasm! There's vans here I like, and vans here I just think "the designer's never slept a night in a van in their life!" For me a bigger van (greater than 5m) should have a fixed adult bed for 2 and a washroom as a minimum spec. We have a kid and a dog as well - and if we can avoid a pop-top with an over cab bed, so much the better. Which is why, despite all the alternatives over the last few years our current bet remains a Grand California 600 ...

I’m a big fan of the Ford to drive the after sales however can be quite shocking. I have the Ford Nugget Plus and love the Westfalia conversion. It will be interesting to see the Ford/VW fusion. I too have noticed that a lot of conversions are based on Ford Monsanto / Trekker / Wildax plus many more. It will be interesting to see if it’s due to a lack of VW base vehicles or a general switch. Time will tell.

Noticed on the kaktus. Surprisingly they used that cheaper base vehicle Just the cheap head unit. Instead of the usual big screen type

I believe the new transporter is based on the new transit.
@darrenjones3681Ай бұрын
Unfortunately yes but the new connect is a caddy I think Vw got the bum deal on that agreement just about to lose its loyal transporter customer base what a shame so yeah Vw has really messed up there as the newest transits aren’t good at all
@teethtrainsandcameras2668Ай бұрын
Was at the show a few days back, Hillside had some big discounts on some of those vans. Do they latest Transits still have that dreadful engine that trashes itself after a few years? Those MAN base vehicles seem the most attractive shape at the moment, not sure what they have done to the front of the Ducato's!

Hi Shaun, (forgive me if I have spelt your name wrong) thanks for doing the reviews of the vans, its great to get a different perspective on the bigger vans. My favourite is definitely the Venture S but then again its uber money! I do think they have pinched some of your designs in your VW... Cheers Andy & Lyn.

Hi Shaun I was up at the NEC yesterday ,the project freedom was my star of the show ,I was talking to Grace the co owner of the company ,super impressive of what they have accomplished in only 4 years since settling up the company. Also I couldn't believe just how much van you can now get if you move away from the smaller panel van conversions and step into a motor home . 65 to 80 k now gets you so much for your money 💰. You can quite easily get a 65 k van then spend 15 k on a daily driver or something that you could tow on a A frame behind your motor home. So many options available now .
@ABusAndBeyondАй бұрын
Yeah I agree, the owners of Project Freedom are lovely and very talented van builders

Anyone spending 60k to 100k on a converted work van must be off their tits. Sorry, don’t shoot the messenger.
