The SURPRISING Cost Of Converting This Van! Full Van Build Cost Breakdown PLUS Our Tips & Hints

[@steve-Elaine]

Less than £25k for a masterclass van build WOW bloody amazing. If you two don’t get snapped up for your own TV series then there’s no justice in the world. You’re both pure gold.💪👌Here’s hoping for many more of your amazing projects

[@truebluetravellers]

Thanks Kev, thats incredibly generous of you and it’s really appreciated, we have just got to Scotland and the van is going a treat 😁💙

[@KevCampbell]

@@truebluetravellers If you find yourself along the Moray Firth we can give recommendations for a couple of places that do a nice tray bake or cuppa - or even year round ice cream. We’ve had a flat in Keith for 20 years and get over to visit as often as we can.

[@truebluetravellers]

Thanks so much Kev, we are hoping to get to Culloden if time permits so not much further to this area. If we don’t make it this time will definitely be doing another trip so any recommendations are very much appreciated 💙

[@KevCampbell]

@@truebluetravellers Inverness is nice, and close to Culloden. I don’t know if he’s still there this time of year, but during summer there’s a chap that makes great pizza in a real wood fired oven in the back of his Defender, on the bank of the river opposite the castle. If you make it into Inverness you ought to check out Leakey’s bookshop, it’s one of a kind. Moving East along the coast, you can park at the Royal Navy/Royal Airforce heritage centre at Covesea lighthouse, Lossiemouth, and walk to one of the nicest beaches to be found. Go into Lossiemouth town and use the brand new footbridge to get to an even more spectacular beach. Go East from Lossiemouth towards Fochabers, and head North to the coast for the WDC Scottish Dolphin Centre, Spey Bay. It’s a lovely spot with a nice gift shop and cafe. Keep heading East to Cullen, and there’s an excellent ice cream shop just down the hill from the town square parking, and just down from there is a cracking chippy - Linda’s Fish & Chips. Right on the square is Rockpool Cafe which is a good choice for Cullen Skink. Cullen also has a fabulous beach, and a charming harbour. If you head South from Cullen to Keith you can park easily on Mid Street - it’s parallel to the A96. At 156 is IG Thomson Butchers where my mate Derek works, and their stuff is all top notch (they’re our neighbours 😎). The Deli Shop across the road is an excellent place to get bags of “seconds” of biscuits, and almost anything else you might want - usually a good selection of Baxters soups made back in Fochabers. Bengal Spice a bit further up Mid Street is our local Indian Restaurant, and very good.

[@truebluetravellers]

Thanks so much Kev. Really appreciate you taking the time to write this out for me. I’ll pop it all in my list, we might not have time to get out to all of these on this visit but we’ll definitely be back so will save them for sure

[@crunchyfrog555]

I personally love what you've done. Not just the van itself, but the fact of how you run this channel. You offer step by step guides on hwo to do things. You offer clear little practical tips that you've picked up and best of all you list the exact prices for things. This is EXACTLY how KZbin beats shitty TV these days. I can't sing your praises enough. And you were right about the bungies - the single metal rail to hold those boxes in the cupboards looks better. I'm defo surprised about how cheap the electrics were - the prices do seem to be coming down as tech improves.

[@truebluetravellers]

That’s ever so kind of you to say thank you and it’s so nice to hear that the videos are helpful. We’ve learnt to do most things by watching KZbin so nice to be able to pay it forward 💙 Electrical components do seem to be getting better and cheaper.

[@jonathansmith5850]

Wow that cost!!! SO much cheaper than the Landrover! (Granted the Landrover is more expensive to buy). That van too looks absolutely amazing! And your videos building it made it look so ‘doable’. I’ve done my own car mechanics for 30 years and do give most other maintenance jobs a go, and your detailed vids really make it look achievable. (Wouldn’t have thought so until your vids!) Thanks guys! Enjoy your next road trip!

[@andrewjones-productions]

You are really very kind and generous to not only explain the costs but to also prepare a spreadsheet for people to look at. Not only that, but you even provide an email address for people to contact you to ask where you got certain items! That is absolutely fantastic! So many channels on KZbin will not share this information. I understand people wanting to keep finances private and also information about certain items that are one-offs or not readily available, but I can't get my head around why people won't share information about things anyone can order online or buy at a shop. The both of you differentiate with your honesty and transparency and as a result, I sincerely hope that your channel deservedly grows massively. Won't you need to change your tyres to winter ones if driving in snow and ice or will you be using snow chains? Depending on the country, you may be legally required to fit proper winter tyres. I've tried off-road all-season tyres here in Japan. They are useless in comparison with proper winter tyres and in anycase, we are required to fit winter tyres by law if travelling in snow country.

[@truebluetravellers]

Thanks very much Andrew that’s so kind of you to say, So the tyres we have fitted are snow rated and yep we have got snow chains too incase we need them so hopefully we will be all good 👍💙

[@Simon_W74]

An Epic Build for Epic upcoming adventures far and wide. Jon did miss a trick of adding one last Tool talk Tuesday. Looking forward to seeing you first real trip away. I have started to look at Supermarket Delivery Vans in a very different light and it looks like it is only the Sainsbury van and possibly Waitrose Van, not had on stop long enough to have a proper look round. the Box looks to be slightly longer too. I thought you were in Sandringham before you said that was were you were. Spent a far bit of time wondering around there with my Girls before they started to not want to do days out like that. It won't be long before they start to not want to come away with us. I think they now use proper Auto boxes on Sprinters now after the problems that sprint shift. Our is finally going into a Garage in Monday to have the Gearbox issue sorted and whilst they have it fix an oil leak and change the rear shocks as they are very crusty, and my drive isn't the best place to be jacking up the Motorhome to change them myself.

[@truebluetravellers]

Ah brilliant glad she getting sorted mate, although I’ll keep my fingers crossed still untill u get the dreaded phone bill call, love Sandringham, we used to walk the dog there most weekends 😁

[@Simon_W74]

@@truebluetravellers Not expecting it to be cheap. Labour will run the cost up. Especially because of the awkward to work on factor with it being an A Class Motorhome, changing the headlight bulbs is a major faff, and it easier to buy new mounting lugs and just thump out the unit and replace broken lugs when about to refit it. As you have to get past the remains of the old inner wings before you hit the void to the side of them where the lights are housed. What you gain in space on the inside without the length you pay for when thing need fixing in the engine bay.

[@Blackbeard-1980]

John just noticed an oversight.. you've no lights on the step over door inside storage boxes.. u could of also modded front bumper with lower foglights as u got the blanks & maybe the thin reflective orange side red rear marker tape for safety... also carry a broom to brush off snow.. looking forward to the journey ahead.!!! P.s u upgrade headlights to Nighteye LEDs wouldn't matter if u left them on as wouldn't get a flat battery... plus brighter!!!

Cheers mate all the wiring is there for side markers so might integrate them at some point. We’ve got a snow shovel which switches head to be snow broom and scraper 👍

[@Blackbeard-1980]

@@truebluetravellers just make sure markers are not a legal requirement also reflectors over certain height for route your travelling especially in a snow storm u don't wanna be rear ended.. they do switchable orange white marker strips & orange red white etc on sides u have a nice 2 or 3m marker light in orange & switchable to an indicator.. other wire makes them white so u could use like a perimeter light.. switchable side marker strips & on rear they do full tail lights but 4ft strips u could run up edges to double up lower lights.. tail reverse indicator or brake/fog depending how u wire it.. just nice to be safe as it's not u it's the others u got2 watch out for so make yourself visable as possible... especially as your "white on white..."

Amazing build. Youre absolutely right those spinter autos are a brilliant drive. The next model definately not though. Later autos are very laggy on low speed rolling starts such as give way junctions. Sometimes you put your foot down a bit to continue and nothing happens. So you give it a bit more and nothing. So a bit more gas then BANG it kicks down very agressively and shoots forward. Theyre just a pain but can be made better by using the paddles to manually kick down or just come to a full stop junctions like that though that isnt always possible with traffic behind.

This may be a daft question, if you are going to the arctic where it's -20 odd, how do you stop the belly tanks from freezing up?

[@truebluetravellers]

The tank we have underneath is just for the shower which we will leave open, the sink tank is inside the van 👍
