For van #2 index, see HERE There are many suppliers, some specialist and some general. This list will be updated over the next few years, and we’re adding locations on a googlemap so that we can see where they are in case we’re passing. All have showrooms (of sorts) Suppliers, and…
For van #2 index, see HERE We need a van to last for 2-3 months minimum with onboard supplies, and Gas is one of those things that can run out! One way around that issue is with refillable gas, and whilst I loved ours in the old van, I get the…
In order to figure out if our plan is realistic, we’ve made a scale model in TinkerCAD with real-size appliances and equipment to see if it fits. The floorplan is based on a L2H2 Ducato/Citroen/Pergot chassis – but ASSUMES the walls are square, the bulkhead is square, the rear arches…

Note: Writing this late 2018, build will be 2020-21 – so this is very much ideas and draft!!!! The Van2 project is different to the NV200 self build. The NV was designed as a camping car with a 5 year lifespan to fit in with our plans then, which included…
