Van Conversion

I have had the 'van travel' bug since 2010. Travelling in our camper 'Priscilla' extensively throughout Europe; France, Spain, Portugal, Switzerland, Italy & Sicily, Slovenia, Croatia, Greece.... Have not been able to travel past 2 years having had to be a responsible adult again for a while but now in 2016 I will be a free! So have been planning a road trip taking the dog which will be a new experience. Want to explore the Scandinavian part of our world Denmark Sweden & Norway. Unfortunately Priscilla was stolen a couple of weeks ago really hope to get her back but being realistic have started to look at a replacement which is why I have joined this site to get back up to date before I choose the next Priscilla. Thank you for the linkup Pat xXx

Welcome, from someone who used to live in TQ7!
Have you thought of doing your own conversion or are you looking for something ready made, so to speak?

Welcome to the Funster community.
Sorry to hear you've had Priscilla stolen.:(
I have seen a Westfalia James Cook advertised near you (in Cornwall). If you don't get Pris back this'd make a good van for your planned travels.:) (it's on a weird site called motorhomessoldquick.com)
Yes I am biased - we have a James Cook! But it's not for sale!!:giggle:

Hi DBK I have thought about doing a conversion but it depends on the time available as I am desperate to get away this year. Lets see how soon the insurance is sorted out.

I suspect time is running out unless you are considerably better organised than me to convert a van in time for this summer.

But my suggestion would be to buy something accepting it may not be perfect and this will help you decide what you do want. :)

Hi and welcome, we did part of Scandinavia in summer 2014 and loved it. We drove up the west coast of Sweden into Norway as far up as Flam then back down for the Ferry from Norway to Denmark. Loved every minute of it
