We now have our very own Shaker Style doors, all hand made. Quite pleased with the results #vanlifeuk #vivarocamper #vanlife #vivarocamperconversion #campervan #trundlevan https://www.instagram.com/p/Cn6nPwGofar/?igshid=YTgzYjQ4ZTY=

More progress while it’s not raining. Splash back installed along with some rather nice tiles, just need to varnish the worktop now #camper #vanlife #vanlifeuk #vivaroconversion #vivarocamperconversion #trundlevan https://www.instagram.com/p/Cnb79EMIGPE/?igshid=YTgzYjQ4ZTY=

The sun has been shining this afternoon so we made some progress on the van. Galley now has a top and the sink has been well sunk #campervan #vanlifeuk #vanlife #vivaroconversion #vivarocampervan #trundlevan https://www.instagram.com/p/CnXEhggo4_F/?igshid=YTgzYjQ4ZTY=

Might not be the neatest rewire I've done but it's all labelled up and fully functioning #vanlifeuk #vanlife #campervan #vivarocamperconversion #vivarocamper #TrundleVan https://www.instagram.com/p/CnFFruWof6s/?igshid=YTgzYjQ4ZTY=

Van update:
After removing all the racking the first big job was to cut a hole in the roof! Scary moment, the point of no return! I could no longer sell the van as a van, after this I would have to complete the project, no going back.
Turned out quite well, only slightly skew and most importantly, watertight! Well, apart from a storm in Manchester where it rained as it only can in Manchester, and leaked badly. Resealed now so fingers crossed it holds.

So, in January 2020 I decided to buy a van, a tiny white transit complete with flashing lights and a racking system from its old owner, Virgin media. This is to become my retirement villa, my beach hut, ski shack, my cabin in the woods, oh and also my daily transport. I set about removing the racking and patching the holes, removing the (very little) rust that had accumulated, and began insulating it. Two months later we were thrown into lockdown!

Spent the afternoon deconstructing the 12v electrics and moving the board ready to rewire and introduce an MCB for hook up. @campervan@twitter.com #vanlife #campervan #campervanmakeover #vanlifeuk #vivaroconversion https://www.instagram.com/p/CljjC6OLdET/?igshid=YTgzYjQ4ZTY=

The view from my office today 😍
It’s a content and writing sort of day. With lots coffee and tea.
Autumn colours are hanging on in there but the trees are quite bare and winter is whispering at the door ❄️
