My home for my European adventure is a Volkswagen Transporter,T28, circa 2006 with 104bhp 5 speed gearbox. I had her converted by Elite Camper Conversions of Worksop, UK to my own specifications which includes Fridge, cooker,sink,grill electrics, central heating, running cold water, double bed and external awning. I also have a TV, extra cool box and external shower. Havings used the van throughout 2011 in the UK I am confident that I shall be very comfortable during this extended tour up to Nord Kapp, Norway.
The reason for a VW van was amonst other things,reliability,the availibility of part throughout Europe and the size, it fits into a car parking space and goes into multistory carparks, so I can use it as my everyday vehicle and thus save a bit by not having to run 2 vehicles.
The adventure starts 11th April 2012 and I expect to be home by early August.
