Cheers @andythom188 If you can texts or WhatsApp me the number I'll give him a call and pop over to see him. I probably looking for the impossible but he may guide me on the best solution for what I'm looking to do.@Mfwic you need to do this caravelle rail conversion the triple seat can be moved to the front of the van so you have a big boot space or all the way back to rear hatch if you want lots of living space.
The triple seat weighs 90kg so bit of a handful getting it out if needed.
I can put you in contact with high line campers in oswestry that can do the conversion for you I did mine in Oxford before my m8 Matty started up on his own
You need the double caravelle rail system like mine, I have the triple + have x2 single swivels to fit if I need to carry more than 5 people max 7 ppl van.Cheers @andythom188 If you can texts or WhatsApp me the number I'll give him a call and pop over to see him.

This is the sort of set up I'm looking for with a 3rd single seat sat behind as and when required. I'd like captain seats to make it more luxurious for travelling in the rear and when using the van as a mobile office.

That's brand new I paid £600 for second hand then had to shell out another £230 for new rail coversA grand just for the rails. That’s daylight robbery!
Ouch. So that’s Caravelle seating system on the “can’t afford” list! That list is getting longer by the day.That's brand new I paid £600 for second hand then had to shell out another £230 for new rail covers
Triple seat will cost you minimum £1400 and that's cloth £2k for oem leatherOuch. So that’s Caravelle seating system on the “can’t afford” list! That list is getting longer by the day.
Well thanks very much for making it even worse; MATE.Triple seat will cost you minimum £1400 and that's cloth £2k for oem leather
Around £400 each for single cloth swivels ,Colin from t5 Oxford charged me £350 labour for fitting rails and needed approx £100 for extra chassis brackets.I'd be looking for 3 x captains in cloth so assume that will be more.
Assuming total budget cost of around 3-4K for start to finish for everything including fitting?
So quick tot upWell thanks very much for making it even worse; MATE.
@Mfwic don’t forget you will then need to make/ buy the floor, new rear threshold trim and side door steps (as the caravelle floor sits higher than the transporter floor).So quick tot up
£1000 for rails
£1,200 for 3 seats
£200 brackets and unforeseens
£ 350 fitting
Total £2,750.00
Minus £750 for sale of existing seats.
Grand Total £2 k
If my math is good and there is nothing I’ve missed then that could “just” squeeze into the “can afford” list.
Hope that’s made it better @DaveyB
PS. @andythom188 If I do away with the sliding table will I only need a single rail ?
