The van at Land's EndWith some of the panelling completed, such as the offside seat base, and the essential gas and electrical services connected, and curtains, I could go camping for the eclipse week in Cornwall and evaluate the conversion.
The van at Land's End
The major factor brought to light during the holiday was that I needed standing room, so a few days after I'd returned I visited leisuredrive in Manchester to have a good look at some roofs.
From top left, clockwise: Reimo 'hinten hoch'; Reimo 'vorne hoch' (both
superflat); Bilbo; Auto-Sleepers.
Even though it is very expensive, I decided that the Reimo elevating roof was the one to have on my van. There are not many others around. AER Developments do a few different styles (at much less cost) but they would give the van a 'home-conversion' look which I wished to avoid. High tops are available (and cheaper) but I didn't want to lose the sleek looks of the van.
