My first van

[SixOneCamper]

OK, please be gentle - Here's my first ever van...

She's a New Wave Customs conversion with suspension sorted out by @CRS Performance (thank you Steve)... Koni Special Actives and H&R ARBs are taking care of the ride (it's super comfy). The van is running on Black Rhino Overland wheels (17 x 8J) shod with Pirelli Scorpion AT+ tyres (225/65/17). I know I could've gone lower / wider but this van is going to be heading for the Highlands regularly and I wanted comfort and good traction / clearance in all weathers.

Conversion includes audio upgrades and on-board Wi-Fi too.

I'll take some better pictures when she's in her natural habitat









What do you think of her?

Personal, the van is brand new and I could have had VW71 BUS but by the time I'd made my mind up it had gone. It took me ages to figure out what to go for... Looked for a plate starting with T61 but no joy... This one made me smile.

Hi @drinfinity, it's a Dometic CRX 50L fridge with a freezer compartment.

Lovely looking van!

What's the Wifi system you have?

Hi @CAB, it's a with Kuma Connect Pro with a Pro 4G low-profile aerial on the roof.

@Morris67 Thanks, they're different for sure... I can safely say the new SportLine seats look boring by comparison
