Hello, ive just joined up to the site.
I have converted a few vans in the past and am looking to complete another self build.
I have a question in regards to base vehicles:
A fridge box van (like the type used by supermarket delivery companies - sainsburys, ocado etc would to me seem to be excellent base vehicles. They are boxish in shape thus offer good space options. They are excellently insulated using styrofoam. They are very cheap for what you get i.e a 2011 sprinter for 5k (granted high mileage but could buy box separately and source low mileage van) the box can be transferred if there is a catastrophic failure with the vehicle. These at least are my observations. Am i missing something here as i can find no evidence on the internet of anyone converting one into a campervan?
This is the type of vehicle i had in mind:
I must be missing something but would be interested in peoples views?
Thanks Tom
