THE SANDY VAN
We have created our own signature van conversion model – The Sandy – which collates all of our favourite features in a van build using a LWB Mercedes Sprinter or Crafter van. This model is designed and optimised for off-grid and all-season use.
This design has also been adapted for a MWB van – The Mini Sandy – which includes everything in a smaller more condensed version.
INTRODUCING THE SANDY VAN (LWB)
This 4 or 5 berth conversion uses proven methods and materials in our signature style. This van is perfect for couples and families as it can seat/sleep up to 5 people. It has a fixed double bed at the rear, and the sofa-bed in the front easily transforms into a double bed. The positioning of the beds and sofa has been meticulously planned to enable you to enjoy the beautiful views you will be parked at. There is a full bathroom with shower and toilet. A kitchen compromising of cooking facilities, worktop space, fridge/freezer and sink with hot and cold water. There is a spacious garage and lots of storage throughout. You can choose your own finishing touches to make the van feel like your perfect home on wheels. This versatile and spacious van provides the ultimate home away from home. After years of living life on the road, we know exactly what is needed in a van to make it your perfect campervan.
THE BASE VEHICLE
This conversion is based on a Mercedes Sprinter LWB van or VW Crafter LWB van. You are welcome to supply your own vehicle, or we can help you source one. We can also adapt this design to fit a MWB van – The Mini Sandy.
