Hi all.
I want to get a basic van/camper.
But my parking has a limit on height of 2.1 metres.
Before I go too far down the rabbit hole... is there a site or resource that lists vans by height?
Electric is very much on the table too!

Help! :)

A van with air suspension may lower the overall height, to make entering car parks easier

TBH.. I'm not after s'thing to live in.. just several days away, somewhere warm and dry to sit if need be.
and fitting in a car parking space anywhere in the UK would be nice.
ONE day, I'll get my full time 4x4 beast.. but babyt steps :)

I've never liked the look of these... BUT, I prefer function over form 90% of the time.. so I'll take a closer look for sure!
I guess you can't go wrong with a VW!

Never heard of a Bongo.. I like it! deffo the right size I've been thinking of.
I think that I should lean towards electric though.. I know they're newer (£££) but I want to be a part of the future too...

Welcome from The Cotswolds!(y)

Have you seen the electric VW van……?

Manic webpage, still not sure what the van looks like. Sack the producer and sell vans.

Hi and welcome (y)

Saw this the other day - Transit PHEV Eco Evolution (starts at 7m 35s in) - £76,000 :oops: but still a hybrid of sorts, though that said from what I can tell the range extender only powers the cells not the drive system - apparently like the London Cabs.




Range on full electric - 26 miles (zero emissions) max :giggle:
Then they were throwing all sorts of figures around - Mixed hybrid 90mpg but if on motorway 25-27mpg, around town 150mpg..... not sure any of that would stack up in real world driving..... But it's early days and in 5 or so years time who knows?

The VW T6 we used to have was just under 2.0m height, great van to drive and once pop top was up, fine for room inside for short breaks away.
