What a crazy month!!As you can see by my lack of updates, I haven't had much time for anything other then work! Been extremely busy in the workshop this last month or so which has been great! Really enjoyed meeting some new customers and seeing their camper vans come to life.Managed to pause, reset, and have a good tidy up of the workshop yesterday. A wise man once told me... "a tidy house leads to a tidy mind". My dad. Thanks dad, you were right!Looking really busy and almost fully booked for the rest of the year, but theres still time to squeeze in a window, diesel heater, or electrical installation. ...

Charging into a very busy 3 weeks at BB Vans! The books are closed for now, and all new inquiries and bookings will be scheduled for October 1st onwards.Watch this space for some exciting updates with some cool vans and some cool things going on in the workshop.Introducing... my van!This is our MK7 Ford Transit 4WD. My partner and I have traveled and lived in this van for a number of years before starting BB Vans, and it's now time for a big makeover!I've just finished fitting a side pod to the rear to allow for more space in the back and a sideways bed. This is a pod I have made fit that was designed for a MK8 Transit.And for those with a mechanical head on their shoulders, check out what's going on at the front hubs. I snapped one of the 4WD CV joint shafts, so it's been upgraded to big beefy UJ driveshafts. No more CV boots! These will really give the 4WD system some strength, and won't have me worrying about snapping shafts when out in the world exploring and adventuring!Huge project and lots more to come. ...

Excuse the mess!I'm in the middle of a big shuffle around in the workshop, along with doing some off site work, so everything is... everywhere! Even my work benches have moved out for the moment!However, work must go on! I've invested in some new battery testing equipment.I can comprehensively tell you if your battery is performing as it should, or if that dodgy split charge relay you bought for £30 has done some damage.You can see this battery pictured is properly ST*&*"£D!If you need electrical help, give me a call at BB Vans, 07584 865427, ben@bbvans.uk ...
