The Van is complete so it's time to do the full tour! The work completed has a shower, toilet, mountain bike storage, computer monitor and more! 4 months of hard effort has all lead up to this and now I can hit the open road. Check out VanGo Conversions here 👉

Probably one of the most thought-out and organized van builds I have seen.I really like the wheel and shoe storage idea.

$70k CAD is about £40k GBP, which when you compare to a brand new VW california, they start at £55k GBP - Awesome value!!! Best MTB'ers van build on youtube!

@hf7382 4 года назад

Yeah but if you are spending £55k on a VW then you need your head testing. Way overpriced and overrated. You could spend £25k and get a much better van.

@beemo4 4 года назад

H F yes but the California is a camper, for 25k the only camper you can get is an old used camper from the 70’s..

@Bi0Hazardfr 4 года назад

He said the price was without the van

@hf7382 4 года назад

@@beemo4 You need to think outside the box mate. If you buy a camper van pre made you will always pay way more than a self build. For 25k you could buy a van and convert it yourself. And 25k is a huge budget. Pick up a decent used van for 12k and then spend 12k on the conversion. That would be fitting it out with everything you could imagine to a high standard. I just did my own high quality convertion for less than 10k including buying the van. and wouldn't trade it for a VW. California or not.

@richardredmond2502 4 года назад

Considering ready made campers based on the Promaster 2500 start at $90K+ USD your van is a great value. You got a van built to address all your needs with far superior workmanship... not a mass built generic camper that has to be adapted. Thanks for giving us a great series of the build out. Great Job VanGo!!!

Fan bloody tastic! Absolutely love this van build. I have so many likes in all areas of the van. I loved how the guys at Vango Conversions (In Squamish, BC) Spent extra time on the finer bits of detail even if you will not be able to see it. As is, right now. To Have that build van in my life (with my Scott spark 960) would change my life and way of thinking. I could happily live in that, Checking out Canada at my pace is crying out to me. This build would give me the ability to roam around and be me. Well done Vango Conversions, Good luck and have fun Paul.

GREAT van build series, although I do have TWO suggestions. Please please please, firstly, get Kitchen rated fire extinguisher for the living cabin and an electrical extinguisher for the garage... Secondly, a vehicle size trauma kit... They make molle pannels that fit the seat backs, you could then put whatever extra pouches you'd like neatly on the seat back. Again great build.

Hey Paul, I'm planning a build myself, and I'm drawing a lot of inspiration from your van build. I'm curious about how well the duel climates between the garage and the living area is working out? I know your routing heat back there, but I'm wondering how you determine how much of your heat is being diverted where?
