Hey guys basically finished off the conversion now for a grand total of £400 spent :-) we have tunning water, 240v hook up, plug sockets, led lighting, 3 way fridge, large double bed, wardrobe and other storage. We are going to paint the outside black when the weather is a bit better but for now its usable and will be our permanent home come the end of may until mid September as we travel up and down the country working as part of response teams at music festivals and events. Then we head off for a 2 year round the world trip so will be selling it come September :-) hope you enjoy the pics

Painted a van of mine black before I went off travelling/living in it,big mistake(especially if you paint roof aswell),was Matt paint,van acted as a big sun trap,used to get too hot,was insulated but,still got too hot,before painting had no problems(was a multi coloured primered mess,with a white roof),but a lot more comfortable to live from.(did one month in it unpainted,two painted,two months of being uncomfortably hot,personally wouldn't have a black camper again for this reason)
