Almost certainly.

Went in a Devon conversion FWD H2 at the motorhome show. I'm 5'9" and I could stand up in it no probs.

Just done some sums for you:

The Mk8 catalogue states H2 FWD load floor to roof height to be 1886mm. The H3 FWD (which I have) as 2125mm. A difference of 239mm.

My H3 is converted now (with approx 25mm under floor insulation plus 9mm ply plus lino. 20mm battons plus 4mm ply and carpet up top). Measuring my floor to ceiling height as I've just done, I'm left with 2060mm at center line. (65mm less than catalogue value, which would seem about right given the boarding out.)

Taking the 239mm difference off my measured height, you should be left with a useable height of 1821mm in an H2 FWD (we're yours boarded out similarly). This is just over 5' 11".

Hope that helps.

Hi just reading the posts, what have you put in your campervan a permanent bed, hob, sink, shower and can I be nosy and ask if so what was the cost. Reason being I've been considering to do it myself but I was thinking about getting the Iveco daily because it's a bit bigger in the back
Thanks
