How Much Should You Spend on a Campervan

May 7, 2021

This is a question with no right answer. Ultimately it all comes down to how much you want to spend and what camper van features are important to you.

In this article, we’ll talk about some of the most popular types of van that people convert into campervans, how people pay for them and also how much it’s likely to cost you to convert your van into the living space of your dreams. This will give you the information you need to start thinking about how much you want to spend.

Types of van

The three types of van that people most often convert into campervans are:

  • Cargo Vans (think Chevy Express, GMC Savana, Dodge B-Series). These vans are great because they’re designed to work hard, which means they can tow heavy loads and they shouldn’t have too many mechanical faults. The downside is that they aren’t quite as pretty as other types of van. You might also find storage space is pretty limited.
  • Euro Style Vans (Sprinters and Transit Vans). These are larger than the other cargo vans, which means they have a lot more room inside. The downside of this is that it can make it much more difficult to park or to fit down narrow roads.
  • Classic Vans (VW Bus, 70’s and 80’s Vans). Probably what you think of when you think ‘campervan,’ these types of vans are great because they are designed to be lived in, and they look great. The downside is that they are more expensive upfront, and they do have a reputation for breaking down often!

Another option, of course, is to get yourself a newer camper van. You’ll find that newer vans are more comfortable and more reliable but that they come with a higher upfront cost.

How to pay for your van

If you are planning to live in your van, then the most common way that people pay for them is to sell all of their possessions and then use the money that they would have been spending on rent to live in their van.

If you plan to use your van for weekends away and are going to keep your day job, you have a few more options and probably a little more money to play with. If you are interested in a loan to pay for your van, then https://www.autofinanceonline.co.uk/ have a calculator which will help you to see how much you can borrow, at what interest, and over what time period. It’s a great way to see what your monthly payments are likely to be.

Cost of conversion

The cost of converting a van can vary wildly depending on which materials you use, whether you do the work yourself and how plush you want your van to look when you’re done!

It’s a good idea to start following people who have converted their vans in places like YouTube and other social media channels to get an idea of what’s possible. You can then use this information to start making plans of your own.
