Quick question: Who will be fitting the van out? Will they be paying someone £200 a day? Or will they be doing it themselves?

Turns ou the VW Players one was rented, some places say at around £4k a weekend!
Is there any space under the CS one for storage? Could be ideal for tables, flags, even your own clothes

Our one will have underslung storage lockers so there will be no need for bringing big vans anymore. Clothes can be kept in lockers inside too.
I would rather lose by a mile because i built my own car, than win by an inch because someone else built it for me.

Where the hell do they generate that sort of revenue!?
I like the idea of a bus, would be some what unpractical to store the other 48 weekends of a year that its not at shows.

I refurb and repair lorrys for a living so anything you need advice on let me know and if your putting storage lockers on fix them to the box not the chassis I might be able to get you some drawings etc of how to make and fix lockers rear step access side door access if your planning on having that anything really just give me a shout

It'll be usable by Combe in April. Regarding completion I couldn't even say that. There's no real limit to spec with regards stuff like interior fittings and equipment, awnings and a roof terrace so we'll keep going subject to funds being available. Every time we don't hire something we'll be 500 up so that will instead go in to the build

Is the box an insulated body or just a general wood paneled box as if it's a paneled box much easier to make it into what your looking to make it into plus making the roof stronger is easy but only if you do it when fitting the inside out first
