    Just looking for some advice

    If I was to buy a panel van for around 6/7 k mark , such as Renault traffic . Opel vivaro, etc .
    They are similar in dimension to vw transporter
    Would it then be a case of bringing it to a camper conversion company say like happy campers.ie and paying them 10k to convert it to a proper campervan .
    And off I go



    Thanks

    Yeah, that's one option, another would be to convert it yourself. If you have the space and time?

    It's primarily a UK site but have a look at www.sbmcc.co.uk.

    You'd also have to pay VRT to change it over to a camper

    Thanks.
    I might have the time but not the space or required skill-sets to attempt a conversion

    Vrt - thanks that's another cost to factor in

    You should look at second hand Mercedes Vitos too, far nicer to drive and alot more reliable than the others you mentioned
