With the campervan industry being so busy at the moment we thought it was the best time to get our writing hats back on and create a blog highlighting the benefits of picking your van and making it your own campervan.
It is a given that buying one ready-made is easy and simple because itâs ready to drive off and enjoy straight away! But we believe there is a lot to be said for creating what you want. If you can look past the negative of the wait time for a build slot with a good conversion company then we believe it'll be really worth the wait.
We will take you through the 7 benefits of purchasing your van and choosing your conversion in the hope that we can provide you with some good advice when looking into buying a campervan.
Benefit 1: Personal specificationâ
You can make sure that the van you are buying is exactly what you want and need. We know that things like air-con, reverse sensors or a tailgate can be deal breakers for some people. To make sure that youâre not compromising on the vehicle itself you can be the decider on what specification list you want in the van youâre purchasing. We know it can be tough shopping around looking for the right base van, but with our forecourt and our other contacts, weâre confident we can help you find the van thatâs right for you.
We only source vans that are up to 3 years old. This is because we like the benefit of them still being under the VW 3-year warranty and we have found them to be extremely reliable which gives our customers peace of mind too.
Benefit 2: Unique choiceâ
A couple using their campervan for travelling may want something different to a family of 4 who uses theirs on weekends. Deciding what is important in your campervan is the first step to figuring out the layout that will work best for you. We offer 5 different sizes of beds, each with its own layout that lends itself best to that size. Some people choose the comfort of a larger bed over the size of the units. Itâs all down to personal preference and how you can best utilise every component in the camper. The initial process of figuring out bed size, the layout, and the type of elevating roof you want are the most important parts to work out how to make the most out of the space a van provides.
We have a standard package of 6 conversion layouts that we offer. They have all been designed from our previous camping experiences alongside customers' bespoke builds optimising the best layout for the space and requirements provided.
Benefit 3: Conversion coloursâ
We know that everyone has different tastes. Imagine buying a campervan because the layout is perfect but you arenât overjoyed with the colour choice? This is where the perks of a bespoke build really come in. We go through every choice with you to make sure you have full say on each component of the build. There is a huge amount of choice when it comes to pop-top canvas colours, kitchen units, floorings and so much more! Being able to build up your own design and pick exactly what you want makes your campervan completely unique to you. It also means that you wonât be looking at something and thinking âIâm not sure why we have thatâ. It gives you full control.
Benefit 4: Campervan extrasâ
You can add what you want, where you want it. An example of this is that itâs also the best time to get things like wiring sorted for extra sockets. We have many customers coming in wanting extra things added on which just arenât something thatâs possible without ripping out half of what already exists. Where it is possible it could end up costing a lot more in labour!
Take a look at our Extras page for some ideas of the additional products that you can add to your campervan during the build process.â
