For Sale
1996(N)Nissan Vanette 2.3 Diesel SOLD
This campervan started life as a 5 seater MPV. The vehicle was bought by us and then serviced and MOT'd prior to conversion. This allowed us to assess the mechanical quality of the vehicle before investingthe time and materials necessary for the conversion.
The vehicle was stripped from the cab seats back, cleaned and then insulated with thermal lining. This lightweight metallic padding is easy to use and takes up very little space but offers excellent thermal and noise insulation. All cavities and panels were covered.
Next a new floor was laid and secured, then covered with hardwearing 'chequer plate' vinyl.
All interior panels were either retrimmed or custom made in light grey velour, giving a neat finish and continuity to the interior. The colour scheme was chosen to draw in the colours already in the Nissan - red, grey, black.
The furniture is fashioned from kitchen grade laminated chipboard, giving a wipe clean surface both outside and inside the cabinets. The cabinetry is custom made specifically for this vehicle, giving a more bespoke fit than just using generic flat pack units.
Upholstery is in a wine and grey two tone, drawing in the burgundy curtains and complimenting the soft cherry furntiure. The foam cushioning is 3" thick, supportive and fire retardant.
Smev appliances have been used throughout the campervan. Smev provide excellent quality, classic designs and stunning reliability - that is why they are used so widely in the industry. The two burner hob has piezo spark ignition and flame failure devices. The sink comes with matching plug and a chromed tap, providing water via a submersible electric pump from the removable water containers.
Lighting is a mix of flourescent tubes above the sink and hob and LED movable lighting above the seating area.
