Someone tell this dude Czechoslovakia does not exist since 1992

[@rickjanicki3705]

Nope, there is nothing you can do to a van that makes it worth £195k.

[@colinstewart173]

£190k for a van conversion. Madness 🤯

[@rubymouse6904]

They are basically huge motorhomes aren't they?? You'd need to be a retired banker to afford one.

[@rgeo2024]

Whilst I appreciate seeing those lovely campervan that 99% of us can’t afford, it would have been really nice to see what most people can afford. Enjoyed the video nevertheless.😊

[@bertyboy7126]

The world is turning black and gray ! yuch

[@tremainekent1983]

Thanks for the review as the MWB Dune Kaktus is our van and we will be posting our travel as we go. Glad you like it

[@ABusAndBeyond]

Great van! Bet you can’t wait for all the adventures!

[@luciegallagher2710]

Stunning van!

[@shredthetrack6858]

Congratulations absolut amazing Van!

[@proxyuk]

Awesome van! just wondering about the build time for your van, from first contact with Kaktus to driving away?

[@LB-W]

Well you lucky buggers hurry up and show us your awsomeness ⭐️

[@tins81]

Czechoslovakia!!!?? It’s been over 31 years now since Czechoslovakia as a country existed!!

[@ABusAndBeyond]

Yes, it was a mistake. We mean Czech Republic of course. We are sorry if this has caused you any offence.

[@timeaves6164]

£195,000... £195,000? for a van? Please, that's insane... please stop this. I used to love your vlogs... Help!

[@seagoddess524]

😂

[@gbwildlifeuk8269]

​@timeaves6164 then you have to insure it and in a few months it will devalue to about half that price! But if youre daft enough to pay it theyre daft enough to let you!

[@robertcook2572]

​@@gbwildlifeuk8269People spend a lot more on a car which has little utility compared with a camper

[@Teddynewz]

@@seagoddess524 Look at the debt ratio according to the statistics, it has doubled or tripled in the last five years, depending on the country

[@ph5056]

I bought a low mileage long wheel base Peugeot with great mpg for £9000 fitted it out professionally myself using the best materials , units and gadgets available almost copying a top range design off a plan. The whole interior + solar / Aircon/ pull out canopy / large glass skylight , etc total was £12000. £21000 in all and as good as any top of the range camper on the market at the moment the same size .

[@MrJayscinema]

Bet that van wasn’t from Czechoslovakia 😂😂😂😂 what year you in?😂

[@ernestoquintero747]

Kaktus interior trim is exceptional with unique colors, cutting edge windows and roof glass.

[@BilldalSWE]

Feels like they've gotten a lot of inspiration and finishes/materials from the yacht industry which I wish more van manufacturers did.

[@WildLiveTV]

Yes the Kaktus was very nice. I realized most of the nice vans are 4x4s. I‘m wondering, does anybody make nice roadgoing vehicles without a mudoption? And still no electrical powered options…hmm…😢

[@Terry-zs4ir]

To expensive and takes away what caravanning 2:02 and camping is all about.

[@vanandcountry]

I went on Tuesday and I agree the the Cactus vans were very nice. I'd like to see the vans actually going off-road. I was chatting one guy and I asked if the fit-out had extra fixings to cope with the movement off-road, blank look! The finish on the huge Spottec conversion was exceptional but it was £200k+!!! I'm still struggling a bit with some of the very-high-top vans and it's probably me but the main difference to me is more headroom over the 'standard' height type ones. All in all a good show, thanks for sharing.

[@tonyflanagan5682]

That cottage on wheels and the roof lining wow proper 1970s😂

[@raygeary1698]

Auto explore like autosleeper Kingham copy 😮

[@keithdavidson1280]

Is this van built in the UK?

[@stevo2828]

£195 k ! For that Sprinter.....who could realistically afford that I wonder ? Can't see anyone with that budget buying a campervan...... they'll be in St Tropez supping cocktails.. great vans but mega £££££.

[@thedestroyer3262]

195k for a van with 2 completely useless seats taking up room for no reason when the van can very clearly only sleep 2, no need to have more seats than beds in a campervan. NO THANKS!

[@murrayblair67]

Those Kactus vans are amazing! Amazing ideas like the roof,seats n lovely wood! Just waow How refreshing ❤

[@Robbie-sv6wq]

Stupid money again...

[@fraserconnell21]

Vans with 4 seat belt seats should have sleeping berths for 4 people. It'd be a sensible option.?

[@cabbunk9906]

You can always add two extra childbeds into any of these with Patented Cabbunk Twin. ❤

[@herbyhannan1675]

If people stopped paying nearly 200 grand for a VAN, then the companies wouldn’t charge that much for them, but if retirees will throw away good money,these companies will gladly accept it,

[@osianmeilyr89]

Czechoslovakia was dissolved over 30yrs ago

[@robww5921]

[@jamesgreco1827]

My favourite van was a boat 😂

[@dogson5000]

Didn’t the teardrop camper with the washing machine doors have a fold out kitchen at the back?

[@Maltbrew]

8:20 "It's actually from Czechoslovakia" Someone needs to go back to school.

[@colinlee5429]

Kaktus and project yonder clearly leaps and bounds ahead! 😚

[@kevingriffin6199]

Wow, thanks for showing us all around. You're right. The cactus vans stole the show for me, bet they're expensive. Thanks once again Kev x

[@ABusAndBeyond]

Thank you so much for watching 😊

[@PlantbasedSilvi]

❤❤❤I love the interior design in England, so colourful, chic, innovative, very different from the conservative architecture in Germany. Boring and always the same. No innovative ideas. It's a shame I can't buy a van from England, I like them much better.❤❤❤

[@andyblake1849]

You NEED a ladder me thinks….

[@LeisureBit]

The Kaktus vans were great weren't they - something a. bit different which is great to see with plenty of innovation! We really liked those and also the Project Yonder van too! All the best, David & Rachel 👍

[@ABusAndBeyond]

Yeah there was some real top notch van builds there. Lots of choice, now where’s that lottery ticket 😂

[@cabbunk9906]

Great review, one of the hidden gems on the Project Yonder vans is an Ai charging system which learns how best to maximise your batteries! Game changer from them. Kaktus also look great. Both have great couples at the helm and great back-stories. Also (shameless plug 🤭) both the Kaktuses and the Wonders can become family vans with Patented Cabbunk Twin childbeds.....Ahem, I couldn't stop myself💖

[@LB-W]

The yonder lounge should have comfy seats as it is a two person van. This is what is missing in two person vans. Van life has sorted this why can’t NEC vans 🤷‍♀️

[@robww5921]

Have been following Kaktus For a while. Great builds. Project Yonder is a new one to me though and look awesome too!

[@Investor-365]

£195k for that Van is scandalous. They deserve to go out of business for Charging that markup.

[@Taffyappleify]

Superb review Shaun, great job, very professional- Kaktus was certainly the highlight for me 👍

[@Invertmini1212]

These are as much as a home.. At that price youre better off buying a solid base 4x4 model and building it out yourself.

[@fishwars5979]

I can buy a nice villa with a pool,in Spain for 160,000

[@ABusAndBeyond]

What if you want that villa in The Alpes the following month?

[@Gmh6477]

Some of the prices these companies are asking for a converted van is laughable you’d have to be a moron to pay what there asking.

[@Luke.czepiela]

Dude Czechoslovakia dissolution happened in 1992

[@GedandMichele]

Yup loving the Kaktus (Kakti) 😊

[@neilab3614]

More American vans Aussies are lagging behind dam hard to find much here.

[@garthtickle1707]

Wow to the cactus crew. That’s a special rig !!!

[@zenmachine50]

No incinerator toilets? when they come in it'll be a game changer..

[@kellymelrose8527]

rich people toys arent they ... i wouldnt swap my self built iveco for any of them.. even tho i have a bucket for a loo..i like the fact that i know it inside out and it can easily be adapted..

[@neilab3614]

A tent is a tent a tent a tent go to BCF much the same ,hot cold damp humid.

[@procue]

Very nice video.wish you would of told us the prices

[@neilab3614]

Would be a lot of weight in most of them hard to tow a boat.

[@josh_bfc_2769]

Kaktus oasis for me. Absolute stunning. The way to go moving forward. If you want off grid, it's got to be off-road capability. The interior looks superb and the window black out button is on another level. Great video .

[@modevans3569]

Off road capability to go park in a campsite or a grass verge on the 500 😂

[@EVDaysOut]

First time watching the channel. Great walk round

[@ABusAndBeyond]

Thank you very much for joining us 😊

[@MiroKalig]

Czechoslovakia? There is no such country. Hasn’t been for over 3 decades

[@ABusAndBeyond]

Yeah we know. It was a brain fart moment. There’s another 50+ comments saying the same thing here 👀😂

[@DavidCook-t9k]

Please come back into the real worl.

[@debdavet-cornwallandbeyond1649]

Nice video . Looking forward to going on Friday and Saturday, as we continue to plan our own layout.

[@ABusAndBeyond]

Enjoy your day at the show 👍

[@rob20452]

Said cool to many times sorry just bailed out this one 😢

[@sandra-l3g]

The too expensive for people because I haven’t got that kind of money

[@slacktones]

Thanks great early viewing

[@wojciechpudlarz3077]

:) Czechoslovakia does not exist for years. CZ= Czech Republic - Slovakia is another country :)

[@Дин-г3к]

Право рульный 😂 не купил бы его .

[@GWAYGWAY1]

All these fancy vans ,with all these not needed ‘extras are just plain HEAVY. Too heavy unless they owner want to get an HGV licence with the bullshit medical requirements. All motorhomes fall for the weight trap.

[@TheIrishMegaphone]

Very good overview but including prices info as part of the overview would have made it more interesting.

[@Angelalivingaquietlife]

I’ll be saving my pennies for a Kaktus! Just stunning. There really is something for everyone’s budget there, high to low.

[@bassmonk2920]

American Vans are boring...

[@stanbembridge1751]

O M G absolute beauties I've owned Toyota estimates in the past for 10 years but the last 10 years I have owned Lexus RX 450h but the Alfard Or Vellfire is definitely what I'm looking for now... I think I need to surrender👍🏽👍🏽👌🏽👌🏽

[@SwamperJez]

Shaun, fab vlog, again, although you were missing a few crew members. Kaktus is the one for me, by far, but don't mention it to our Brutus. Hope to see you at Camper Jam or BusFest, with your (by then) finished family adventurer👍 PS - currently in Portland, vising our mutual friends, where Brutus is having a 'little' upgrade...

[@matthewrichardson666]

Shows the increasing popularity of the Crafter and TGE as base for conversions. Few interesting builds on newer Transit customs, expect next years show will show the T7 builds starting to come through. Converters going to be fighting to get the last of the T6.1 coming through the dealer network. Knights Custom are top quality conversions on the Transporter platform.

[@ivecamperbuild_thomas4084]

The MAN have loads of problems with electronics and automatic transmission I know a few people who have them and they are all having issues with them and would never recommend one to any one

[@simonfrost7561]

Czechoslovakia seriously mate what year is it 1960

[@nickjh1968]

Great show review. By far the best as most get bogged down in too much detail. Disappointing that the Ensuite2go wasn’t at the February show, one of the reasons we attended. Are you still hoping to review it any time soon? I know you said after the October show you were planning to. Thanks!

[@igatago9166]

Kaktus Oasis for the win. Just need a LHD delivered to California 🙌

Did you say £195 fot that Mercedes conversion 😂😂😂😂😂

[@allthegearnoideaoverland]

Add chapters to the video. Very helpful for viewers. Thanks!

[@diwarburton5369]

It’s a shame that you only featured MAN and similar sized vans. It would have been nice to have seen some Transporter and Caddy conversions as well.

[@jameswilliamson8050]

So whats the price ?????? If your posting videos at least tell us the PRICE

[@Daffy0208]

The Wildax at the beginning had a shocking interior. Why do they insist on the 70s caravan formica wood?!!

[@peteypops]

I can see some of these lovely vans after a trip through the red dust of northern Western Australia…a nightmare to clean. Lovely, nevertheless….if only….we will just plod on with our T6 and dream.

RS Sport? I can see the lawyers from Audi and Ford sending off the trademark infringement paperwork very soon

I’ll stay at some of the top hotels in the world for the next 40 holidays and I won’t spend 195k/gas/maintenance etc.

[@ABusAndBeyond]

I’d say a Campervan holiday maybe isn’t for you then! 😂

[@Seektruth-59]

@@ABusAndBeyond I’ll rent one when I want one. Price of ownership and depreciation is a waste of $ unless you have $ to waste.

If only you had opened the left hand barn door on the WildAx Crafter you would have see the very neat and compact power source - the Clayton Power LPS 2. Looks a brilliant bit of kit and well suited to the WildAx.

Great vid. Would be good if you could include the price and length of all the vehicles you show us around

190k for a sprinter conversion though….. wow 😂
