Hi there,
Just joined the forum and looking for some advice as we're planning on getting a camper this year and there are just loads of options. I think we may use it as our daily drive so we can add to the kitty by selling our current car. We have a small child and a dog so looking for something with enough seats to accommodate everyone and enough space to be able to fit in bikes etc. when just running around. I was thinking of a LWB T6 with sliding rear seats so we can make the most of the space. It has to be Euro 6 compliant too as we live in the London area and the emissions zone is set to be expanded soon. I'm looking to use it for family holidays as well as it being our daily drive but as we have a great tent and camping set up I'm not too desperate for a pop top bed - although the extra height would be nice! Our question really is whether to buy a van and convert it or to go for an already converted / factory version? I know that if we did convert we could get the exact layout that would suit us best, but looking through threads this seems to be something that can end up as expensive if not more so to do. Plus there's the decision of which base van to start with (Kombi, Caravelle and so on).
Any tips welcome!
