Conversion recommendations - south-west.

[interbear]

Picked up our new camper conversion a few weeks ago from Autohaus Factory in Minehead. Great quality conversion, excellent buying experience, really helpful advice throughout. No hesitation whatsoever in recommending them.

Anyone able to recommend a converter/ someone who knows what they’re doing in the Glos area?

I don’t want a traditional conversion so no one seems interested in helping, all I want is a bed and more space! Not able to do it myself as being a single Mum to 4 I don’t have the time or patience

Looking at the following options which I need help with:

1. Keep the Velle, add roof bars, awning rail, bed board (have someone to do this), adjust the ride so we’re not bouncing around, leisure batt, night heater, privacy tint.

Orrrr 2. Get a LWB velle and do the above. Can’t find one anywhere though.

Orrrrr 3. Get a LWB Transporter and make it a Velle (spec, floor rails, isofix seats which can make a bed etc). And also do everything in 1.

Any advice on anyone who can help with getting this done would be appreciated as it’s giving me a headache

Is there anywhere in the South West that supply and fit RIB beds?

Several I think inc Clearcut themselves.
Have a look on this page, but I think loads of others do who aren't even on this list

Hello everyone! Just want to ask for some recommendations. I recently bought a T6 factory kombi and I’m thinking of getting some work to be done on the van eg. Diesel heater, leisure battery and lowered suspension. I’m based in Exeter, Devon. Thanks in advance.

The Van Cave isn’t a million miles away, top quality workmanship that I can personally vouch for.

Ping Chris on here - @The Van Cave

 

[The Van Cave]

Thanks for the shout out @Insert Coin

Happy to help @superstar1323. Send me a DM or email Chris@thevancave.co.uk and we can discuss further.

I’d highly recommend Chris at The Van Cave as well.

I’m In Exeter as well and have struggled to find anyone else around here.

IMO I would travel for the best price / customer reviews. There’s plenty of competition.

another shout for Chris @The Van Cave. having dealt with him on a couple of non van related issues, he was and has been nothing but professional and i would have no hesitation on letting him work on my van.
