Hi everyone! We are total newbies, to the Forum but also to T6's (although if feels like going back to my roots - we had a T2 camper growing up, and my very first motor was a (devastatingly rusty red/white) 1972 T2).
We are looking for a T6 to convert, and really like the notion of twin sliding doors, to enjoy the open air better by opening up the space. (Although obviously it dramatically reduces the choice of used/nearly new vehicles - so if anyone knows of any do let us know, we are based in Brighton).
Do any members have experience - good and bad - with twin sliding doors, advice in converting etc. We followed some threads on the forum last night and were guided to the EVO Design site which has been really helpful. Flatpack/self-project-managing seems like a much more affordable way to go than a full conversion by a specialist company.
We would like to create a kitchen design which would allow both indoor and outdoor cooking, either by making a pod that can be lifted out of the driver-side sliding door, or on some swivel or pull-out mechanism, potentially with a freestanding twin hob that can be lifted into different positions. We like the back door kitchen pods we've seen, but then we wouldn't be able to cook in bad weather inside the van. Anyone have any tips or advice on inside/outside kitchen design solutions?
Thanks so much in advance!
