Thanks for this video. I’m considering doing the same thing as although I’d like a new caravan I’m not sure I can afford it. Your makeover is great
@bodienutt1 Жыл бұрын
Thank you. The idea for us was to buy a used van for a couple of years then upgrade but 5 years later we still have it. To be honest we love the van so much we'll keep it for another year or two the we'll proberbly upgrade. I'd recommend buying a used van to see how you get on and then upgrade as you'll probably have a few scrapes here and there. I've gone through 3 jockey wheels lol

@englishrose11222 жыл бұрын
It looks good but I agree on the upholstery needing a change to something more modern. Loads of the older caravans have dated fabrics it seems but £1000 sounds a lot but I suppose if you buy a couple of sofas it would be more, I have just bought two for my sitting room. You did so well to get the caravan at that price, its in very good condition. In my kitchen my husband used a vinyl wrap on the cabinet doors in a slate grey concrete finish, its amazing its the second makeover in last 7 years with this material and it doesn’t show chip or show fingerprints due to the mottled concrete look. Maybe you could have a go in another part of the van.
