2004 Berlingo camper - Richard1192 - 25-11-2015

Hi all,  

I picked up my berlingo last week and I've started converting it into a single man camper (with room for my labradoor and mountain bike).

I've so far managed to build a bed and cabinet to fit into the back nicely. The bed frame is only 5'2 but with the front seat folded down it turns into a 7ft bed, it really has a lot more room than I first thought! 

I will include a few pictures (Hopefully) at the end but what's the best (and cheapest way to insulate the van, I want to go down the bubblewrap foil from wickes stuck everywhere then veltrim on top, can this be done does anyone know?   Anyway here's my little camper so far, ive only had a couple days work on it (then the engine started playing up, I've spoke about in another thread if anyone can help!) Smile


couldn't add photos image size too big, but here is a link to my profile on instagram which i have been updating with the progress:

Good work on the bed. I've brought my van out to Spain and we've kipped in it a few times. 100% going to make something similar to yours on my return to the uk

i've something similar, have insulated and lined it and got 12v out the back for lights and chargers, have shyed away from making a wooden bed as I like being able to remove it so i just use underbed storage boxes and 2 on top of each other is the same height as front seat folded over, but your's definately looks wider than mine.

how are you going to store the bikes? I have nothing behind my drvers seat so usually have it along the side with wheels off in wheel bags to keep things tidyish
