Hello From Glasgow

[tartanrambo]

Hi everyone,

I recently acquired a Berlingo Multispace XTR 16V 2007 model. Over the past few weeks, I built a camper conversion to sleep 2 adults (removable for MOT). As we live in Scotland my primary focus was to have a safe, warm and dry shelter from the elements. Additionally, I still wanted 2 adults to function inside the van if the weather prevented opening the rear tailgate. It has side cupboards, storage bins, a folding table, stove (single burner), a chemical toilet and a cold-water tap and basin with running water. It also has a leisure battery with a split-charge relay. I avoided the common style camper design e.g. Amdro Boot Jump, in favour of an L configuration that allows me the option to enter/exit via the side or rear tailgate. All in all, a mighty mouse package!

I am adding a roof box and a kayak rack this weekend. Then I will only need minor modifications from then on. We spent two days over Easter traveling down the Ayrshire coast and our little van was incredible. We slept like babies.

I look forward to communicating with forum members.

Hi Tomcat3, thank you for the greeting. I'm not sure how to post pictures inside a thread. Any advice?

Don't know if it's the best way to post pictures, but I generally press the 'reply' button which then gives the option to add attachments. Typing into the quick reply window does not give me the same options for some reason.

I will be posting some photos soon!
