Interior change for a wider bed?

[andy greenwood]

We've had our T6 camper since 2018, the layout is a 112cm rock n roll bed and a side kitchen unit. For ages we have wanted more sleeping space. One option is to sell the van and get something bigger or keep the van and change the layout.
If I changed the layout I'd probably go for a full width RIB bed and buy a pod unit ( see attached ).
Do you think that changing to this type of layout would de-value the van ? Do the standard layout vans such as what I currently have go for better money ? Many thanks guys

I hunted high and low for a van without the woodwork down the side....as 3 seats/full width bed/less storage met my needs better. It really depends on what the buyer wants, but the full width is less common.

Lots of us would not change our 130cm beds.

My conversion has a similar pod behind the drivers seat and a narrow (but really useful) rear wardrobe.

If your happy with your van, and plan to run it for many more years, then make the change to suit your needs.

To be honest I was thinking full width 150 wide bed rather than 130.

sounds like mine...I've got the hob and sink in the top of the pod, the Microwave on a shelf in the pod with storage under and the fridge under seat. still plenty of storage under the seat and back that meets my needs. If i was to change anything, it would be a narrower/wider pod so i could recline the drivers seat a bit more. i cant move the pod any further back as when the bed is fully extended its almost touching the pod as it is.
