Are you going to convert it?!!Finally got my grubby paws on this beauty, happy to be back in a defender, night and day from my ones of old. Miss my t6 though but couldn't keep both.View attachment 138758

It's marketed as the 'ultimate specification' - but £115k?
I'm not doubting the quality of the conversion, and it does look pretty special. It is however a converted used 'Velle with 2k milage on the clock, so properly crackers money IMO.
And I'm sure they'll sell it...
The market is absolutely bonkers at the moment.
Picked up this great unit that JSB Campers made to go on my Ovano drawer. Perfect fit! Vvv happy. Highly recommend James’ work

Thank you very much Jimbob76. I spent a very long time figuring out what I wanted - full width bed, big fridge, space for dog and loads of space for toys that is easy to access The Ovano is great - no squeaks or rattles - they have put a lot of thought into it. I love the drawer but also love having the thru channel down the side for boards, etc. I can highly recommend it. I put a Forty Winks mattress on top - fits perfectly. Having used it throughout the summer I realised I wanted a unit to cook on and keep everything tidy (I was using plastic storage boxes) but had trouble finding someone to make it for me. James from JSB Campers was great - took my original idea and made it better with the pop up wings. He did an outstanding job with the unit and put a carpeted shelf inside - I can highly recommend him - he is based near Oxford. I had a 6 week wait for Ovano and 5 week wait for unit from James. Hope that helpsThis is the dream set-up for me mate. Love it. And great to see it works with Ovano's Switch Narrow set-up, which is exactly what I'm working towards getting in Spring '22 (plus the dog edition pod at the side for the mutt).
I'd love to hear how you're getting on with this set-up, both the Ovano unit (any squeaks or rattles when driving?), and the JSB Campers addition (does this just lift out when not needed?)
Great set-up for a Kombi you've got there mate. Love it. More than a little bit envious pal.
Super planHaha, no, however planning some trips into Europe and intention is to get hold off one of these off road camping trailers. Croatia first on the list once things settle down again.
There's no van in the world I'd pay £115,000 for. Just stupid, IMHO.I don’t think anyone should buy this.
It’s not the nicest van I’ve seen… and I’ve never seen a van worth anything near £115k.
And there was me thinking that some of the vans being advertised here on T6F were a bit over-priced!I didn't buy this...

Something about “fools and money” springs to mind!As with most things there will always be somebody who wants it because it’s the most expensive.
Seems a likely reason for the poor fit. I’ve returned the Stiches + Steel cover. I want one the fits exactly right. To their credit, they’ve been quick to reply to e-mails and have accommodated the return.@Dave Mac is correct. Lots of companies being lazy and selling T5 stuff as T6 without checking. Most fits but the covers dont as mirrors are one of the things that changed.
