New here

Hi just new on here my husband and I are hoping to travel and need a campervan. What do we need to look for should we buy new or old. Or transform a van into a campervan which is better thanks.

Hi Paula....welcome to the Forum

Personally, I believe it will be cheaper to buy a good used van and convert it to a campervan rather than buy one already done.

There are plenty of conversions that you can buy from ebay and simply bolt it in to start the conversion.

Albeit, you'll have to pay professional trades to put in the gas, electrics, pop top, etc but even with these costs it would still allow a profit in the van if you decided to sell it after a while.

Let us know how you decide to go forwards with this idea.
