This May Just Look Like A Regular Van… But WAIT Until You See The Inside!

One couple from Gloucestershire proved to be extremely resourceful recently when they were priced out of the rental market. Adam Croft and Nikki Pepperell found the cost of renting too high and unable to buy their own home, instead spent £3,500 on converting a Ford Transit Luton van. The couple then went on to spend a year and approximately £6,500 transforming the van into a solar powered home,  complete with toilet and shower. They plan to tour Europe.

It was the first time Nikki had picked up a drill and I hadn’t done any building work before,” he continued. That bed looks pretty cosy!

You can keep up with their adventures here and in the meantime, check out the gallery above to see how cool their new home is.
