Newbie-ish
Hello to everyone at MHF!
Lady new to the forum but not entirely new to owning and restoring campers having previously owned a beautiful 1965 Land Rover Dormobile among a number of classic Series Land Rovers. But that was then ... and nowadays I have LWB, full height Citroen Relay III which I intend to convert into a camper.
I bought it from a lady who'd taken the first steps in the conversion by stripping out the ply, applying sound proofing and having a side window and roof light professionally installed before running out of interest. I've been using it as a work van in this state until I have some time to get stuck in.
After years of Lexus 4x4s that never, ever go wrong and the simplicity of classic Land Rovers, living with a Citroen van has been a real eye-opener - and not always in a good way!
I'm a fairly experienced carpenter and I'm really looking forward to building the interior. But first there are electrical gremlins to conquer ... so you'll likely find me on the technical boards!

Wellcome from another Land Rover nut , but to be honest the old Land Rover electrics where Lucas and their name in the motor trade was Prince of Darkness:LOL:
So you are already a quantum leap up the evolution scale as far as electrics go,
