Does anyone know of anywhere in the Edinburgh and Lothians area to get this done?
Also maybe a ball part figure for the cost?

Or if you want a professional job Andy at AJC is a top block albeit a bit further afield.
He’s done a couple of vans for me & is meticulous in his work. Highly recommended.

A tip if going fully converted is have any pop top roof done first then wiring, insulation & carpeting. Units usually go in last.
It goes without saying the VW T5 is the king of modern campers.

Last time I spoke to him he had a lead time of at least 6 months due to demand for conversions.
A busy boy with a good team of staff, very well respected in the Vdub world. 😉
Ps thanks for sorting links 👍

a/ have cash in hand
b/ be prepared to travel
c/ know what’s worth pursuing
to get what your after.
Set a budget, aim for the highest spec within your budget & be quick if something comes up you like.
Do any haggling before travelling to avoid disappointment.
I still keep an eye on prices weekly as an interest & would have no prob highlighting any that stick out for your budget if it helped.
Good luck 👍

Some vans have had a remap, I’d avoid them unless there’s a pre / post print out.
If your converting insurance companies like Brentacre are good as they allow unlimited modifications as long as you let them know.
I wouldn’t rule out approaching Edinburgh VW to ask if they have any trade in vehicles, you’ll have vat to pay but have the safety of 12 months Full warranty.
Feel free to pm me your budget & vehicle requirements & I’ll have a look 👀

Overall I think we could go to 12k. It's not enough money so going to have to leave it.

Still no success finding a van. Who'd have thought this would be so bloody difficult.
