Vehicle

​Mercedes Sprinter 314 MWB 140BHP

Camper Spec:

​Fixed full size double bed and large garage underneath. Memory foam mattress topped with Reflex foam for extra comfort and support.

​EvoMotion rear side Space Pod installed. This extends in internal sleeping width so the bed can be positioned width ways and still provide a 195cm length bed. See images of 6 foot me laying on the bed with room to spare. This setup allows for the same size living space you would find in a LWB but in a MWB van small enough to fit in a normal parking space. Perfect for UK driving.

​Fully insulated throughout including the floor, walls, doors and ceiling. We use a mixture of Celotex, thermal fleece, closed cell foam and reflective foil insulation depending on the location. A complete selection of pictures taken during the build will be available at the time of viewing so you know what is behind the panels.

​Thermostatic 5kw diesel heater connected to the vans main fuel tank. This heater ducts to both the living space and garage area. The hot air can be shut off from the living space and left to only heat the garage area for clothes, wetsuit and towel drying. The heater also heats the 5L onboard hot water tank.

​80L fresh water holding capacity consisting of 4 x 20L easy to carry and refill water tanks. This removes the need to fill from a hose pipe which can be hard to find when on the road or requires moving the van when on a campsite.

​5L Trauma hot water tank heated by either the diesel heater or mains hook up or both. This water gets extremely hot so when mixed with cold water through the mixer tap it creates around 15 to 20L of warm water.

​3 x 130ah Leisure batteries creating a total of 390ah 12v battery power. This system is charged by a 200W slim (aerodynamic) solar panel through a 20A MPPT Renogy Solar Charge Controller with bluetooth app control, 140amp split charger when driving and 240 hookup with 20A AC to DC battery charger when on a campsite.

​Hook up also powers 2 x 240v internal sockets and the water heater

​USB and 12v power points are positioned throughout the camper along with LED lighting

​The 12v remote controlled ceiling Maxx Fan blows cool air in the summer and can be set to extract when cooking, showering or toileting

​ The Kitchen

Sleek black 2 ring gas hob

​The deep stainless steel sink is surrounded by a modern stylish splash back made from lightweight tile panels

​The worktop is made from lightweight stained pine and can be extended when used with the versatile table top positioned next to the kitchen.

​65L Apicool fridge freezer with removable freezer compartment to create a bigger fridge. This 12v fridge is ultra light and very efficient.

​Button operated metal handles operate the very deep soft close drawers and cupboards.

​The sink tap pulls out to become the trigger operated shower head for the pop up shower cubicle.

​Our pop-up shower cubicle solutions provides extra seating when down. When open the large kitchen door provides privacy when using the toilet. When the included shower curtain is connected to 4 simple hooks above you have a full size shower cubicle, bottom half tiled, top half curtain.

​Full size shower cubicles in campers take up so much space but are also tiny when inside resulting in bruised elbows when washing. Our solution provides a watertight base with full freedom of movement for your arms thanks to the top half being a curtain.

​Living Space

​Complete privacy with tinted slide open side window and bunk window both with blackout curtains. A black out windscreen blind for the cab windows is also provided.

​Fixed 2 seater sofa with upholstered Reflex foam cushions. Huge hidden chest storage underneath.

​Fixed 1 seat directly opposite which houses the toilet and pop up shower cubicle.

​Double front passenger swivel seat. When not driving the double seat can be turned to face the rear turning the living room area into a 5 / 6 seated social space. It also allows access to and from the cab without having to go outside.

​Turn the living room into a dining room / office with the removable fully adjustable table leg and pine table top to match the rest of the surfaces.

​When lowered this table top fits between the single seat and sofa to create an L shaped sofa or even an extra 5.6ft long single bed making this a 3 berth camper

​Storage

​Huge amounts of storage throughout including overhead units, chest storage, soft close drawers and cupboards.

​The garage area under the bed has been fitted with a tough, hard wearing floor and includes a Sortimo rail system for added storage versatility.

The area can be accessed from the living space as well as the back doors.

​The Vehicle

​Mercedes Sprinter 314 MWB 2.1L Diesel

​Ex fleet vehicle, one owner, serviced in house. At 194k, the engine sounds as quiet as a new Sprinter and will easily last another 300k+.

​We have had it fully inspected and serviced including all filters, liquids, door locks and hinges, the works. The mechanic reporting that the van is a very good example for its age and mileage.

​We have also given it a new MOT, only fail was a light bulb that was replaced to Pass. Its past MOT history is fantastic with no previous fails.

​Rust free body work and under body

​Bad Bits

​The van does have a few small external dents visible in the pictures

​It also has a number of small stone chips on the bonnet to be expected after driving 193k.

​All very minor cosmetic things, we haven't had these touched up to keep the final cost of the camper as low as possible. We know most wont care about minor bodywork imperfections however we do work closely with a local body shop so can always have these things touched up at an additional cost if requested.
