A van conversion is a challenge that very few people can do to a high-quality level. It involves thorough prep work, skilled craftsmanship, and a whole lot of problem-solving. We are in a very fortunate position to have worked with Blueline Automotive Suffolk and have been able to convert a 2013 Volkswagen T5.1 into a beautiful camper.

When it first arrived at the Bridge Classic Cars workshop, our T5.1 looked good, although it certainly lacked the appeal and comfort levels of a full camper. However, as a starting point for a fun life on the road, it turns out, it was a great choice.


Designing the interior layout is a big part of the conversion process. Every inch of space needs to be carefully considered to make sure you get as much functionality as possible from the limited space available.

The original interior was in great condition but was a long way from how it needed to be for a usable camper.


Once work began to transform our T5, it began to look very different to how it first started out. It took a lot of work and hundreds of hours but, as things continued to progress well, the van slowly became more and more camper-like.

The most obvious change was clearly in the back of the van. Windows were added, floors, units, electricity, and a whole host of comfortable additions were made as it became more and more homely.


A Finished Van Conversion

Once the transformation was complete, our 2013 Volkswagen T5 looks almost unrecognisable and is completely ready for a long road trip or a family camping holiday.

For a few days out on the road, you will certainly be comfortable and can enjoy some relaxation as well as plenty of adventure.
