## Description

👋👋
Hello Fellow Adventurers !!!

By way of introduction we are Emma &amp; Andrew, Reuben and our whippet Hunter (picture below of the pooch - non-allergenic!).  We enjoy Cycling, Hiking,  Dog-Walking and general fresh-air outings with our Indy.

Thank you for taking the time to learn about our well-travelled and dependable Indy - the 4x4 VW Poptop Campervan - who has sheltered and kept us toasty throughout. 

Regular stops for DIY onboard espressos are highly recommended too! 

He was converted by CamperKing to a high standard - with a modern Poptop sleep area, full kitchenette, certified safe rear seating/ bed, storage, Dometic awning, Dometic fridge/freezer and Solar panel charge system.

@@@ Indy can be driven by anyone with a standard UK driving license (manual) @@@

Our family have enjoyed many great planned and unplanned weekends (and weeks!) travelling solo or with friends around the UK and Europe - meeting all manner of interesting folk along the way and some truly amazing sights and places. 

@ DRIVING / PARKING 🚥 🅿️
Any concerns around driving a large van are quickly dispelled by the very light steering, car-like handling and confident direct braking.  This is the T32 model with superior suspension and brakes to other lower-weight capacity models.
Indy is also 4x4 which also adds confidence to the drive and feel.
For illustration - Indy is only as long as the average estate car - easily parking in standard supermarket bays and the like.
There are both forward and rear cameras with video footage storage - also allowing good visibility (with curtains open!) and a reversing camera on the rear window to aid further. 
The left hand sliding door really comes in useful when parking is tight though and becomes the main entrance/exit while parked up (and it is away from the road-side unlike on the California vans!).

@BERTHS🌜🌛
Indy can sleep four adults comfortably - the poptop bed is factory weight rated up to 200Kg for peace of mind and surprisingly easy to deploy / retract by one adult.
The upper bed (lounge#2!) is also a great bolthole if you would just like to enjoy a chill out too - and the view is even better!
There is also a safety barrier for the upper bed for peace of mind with youngsters too.

@SEATING / TABLES🍪 🍽
Both front seats have heater overlays and the Passenger seat can rotate 180 to join the party - great for a leg stretch too.  
Rear seats can be partially reclined for comfort while stationery - allowing a more relaxed position for relaxing.
There is also a matching removable indoor table for mealtimes and entertaining.
There are two outdoor tables included as standard to extend the outdoor living experience.

@AWNING🏖
The side awning is easy to operate - super for summer days and inclement weather as shelter for the van side entrance and surrounding exterior living area.

@ TWIN SLIDING DOORS🏞
The right hand sliding door is a rare extra - ideal  for extra airflow and as a minibar serving area. This door also has its own sliding window too. 
The left sliding door interior panel has been converted to extend usable storage space too - really useful for the rear passengers whilst on the move.

@LUGGAGE STORAGE 🎒👜
We find there is plenty of storage space for luggage / kit with all the built-in cupboards to help control the chaos!  As we normally use a separate large rugged plastic bin for the kitchen / cooking equipment, this frees up the storage bins for luggage and other general kit - keeping the van more comfortable, tidy and much quicker to pack / clean when moving off again.  The same idea extends to outdoor cooking - as this cuts down on cleaning time and more time to enjoy eating and relaxing putdoors instead!

@POWER ⚡️⚡️
The solar panel charger system and huge off-grid leisure battery can provide enough juice to keep you comfortable and all your devices charged - whether hooked up at a campsite or freewheeling in the countryside. 
While connected to a campsite power supply then AC mains electricity is available from the dual 3-pin sockets onboard.
A 20 metre camping power cable will be provided to allow use of campsite electricity (AKA shore power).

@HEATER ♨️
We have an Autoterm Diesel Heater installed which is indispensable in the colder months and for drying off damp clothing if necessary too - further it can be remotely operated via the app to allow the van to be warmed thoroughly upon your return too!  Only installed last year it works perfectly and runs from the main fuel tank.

@RUG / SEATING
The rug is designed for pets and is both water and drinks absorbent- perfectly fine for inclement weather and social gatherings- and can be dried and cleaned easily as necessary.

There are also seat covers to protect Indy's seats if the weather turns and clothing is damp and muddy.
The seats have also been 3M treated to offer basic protection and easier cleaning too.

@INSULATION ♨️
Indy has been thermally and acoustically insulated to improve the driving and camping experience equally.
A set of blackout curtains have been fitted for extra privacy along with the sliding blackouts on every window in the main living area.
For the upstairs guests there is also a Khayam poptop cover to improve the insulation, sound dampening and light blocking.  Especially good in winter or for keeping the younger kids slumbering to allow the grownups a good lie-in!!
There are also handmade (by Emma!) wraparound front window covers and a solar windscreen blind.

@WATER🥤🧊
Indy has a 20 litre water supply with tap and sink - plenty for a hot week in summer.  A basic portable shower can be provided however we find that booking into a campsite as needed is more convenient and comfortable.

@COOKING 🍽
For cooking there is a twinring gas stove in addition to an outdoor camping stove when the weather allows.  For example a small coffee pot will be ready in around three minutes..   
We find that outdoor cooking is much more enjoyable - and more importantly fresh-air calories don't count !
Cutlery and crockery will be provided, including cleaning materials for any accidental spills along the way.
There is also a large Dometic fridge and freezer which is more than enough to keep your drinks and dairy and vegetables chilled.
For outdoor cooking and drinks we have provided a gas burner stove and camping kettle.

@MECHANICAL ⚙️⚙️
Indy has a 6 speed manual gearbox (clutch and gearbox are not at all heavy to operate) with 4x4 which is great for muddy campsites and wintery / slippery conditions.
He is shod with 18 inch XL-rated offroad and all-weather tyres - which offer a more comfortable ride than the fashionable larger boneshaking 20 inch wheels and low-profile tyres!!  

@SERVICING 🛠🛠
We keep Indy fed, watered and in tiptop all-round mechanical condition - he has recently benefitted from all the fluids being changed- even those that VW do not mention on the official service schedule.

@BIKE-RACK 🚲🚲🚲🚲
We have an Atera 3/4 bike rack available as an option - which has the advantage of sliding rearward to allow access to the rear doors as needed - this really is a game changer when needed to access the rear of the vehicle on long journeys  - ensuring the bicycles stay safe and secure at all times.  It has full electrics and lights including reverse/ turn signal alert tone.
This rack really is the only custom-designed bikerack for these barn-door vans - having tried other solutions we can confirm they are indeed much less hassle to live with - and straightforward to attach / detach as needed.

@@@ 🦺
Our view on vehicle safety and maintenance is that our Fellow Adventurers will have the same peace of mind that we enjoy on each and every trip.
@@@

A big thank-you for reading all about our adventures with the intrepid Indy - we do hope you found it useful for your own future memories!

Happy Travels!
Emma, Andrew, Reuben and Hunter --

### Additional Rules

Dear Adventurers,

Just a few housekeeping points to ensure your holiday is as comfortable as possible-

PRE-FLIGHT CHECKS:
1.   ROOF DOWN AND SECURED !
2.  POWER CABLED DISCONNECTED AND STOWED !
3.  AWNING STOWED AWAY !


We would kindly ask that there is No Smoking in the Campervan or under the Awning - including vaping.  

If possible pls leave dirty footwear outside the van - makes for a much nicer and comfortable living space. 
 
If you are a lucky doggy owner pls consider using a towel to avoid doggy water spray as it does have a habit of getting everywhere! 

Long haired and or high moulting dogs attract an extra £10 service charge.

Festival charge is £50 extra.

If using the indoor cooking facilities pls ensure there is adequate ventilation- I.e. open the right hand sliding door a little or the the small window open.
Please note the right hand sliding door will hit the external power cable if connected - please check preior to opening the right side sliding door

Many Thanks for your kind consideration --
Andy &amp; Emma

*August 2024*

We borrowed Indy for a week long trip around the south of England and couldn&#39;t have been happier. Andy was welcoming and talked us through everything which was really appreciated. The van was exactly what we were after, the conversion is a good one, both the roof and bottom bed fit me fine (I&#39;m 6&#39;3&quot;). Everything worked well, Andy clearly looks after Indy and has kept it well stocked with some camping essentials which helped us out.
It was a pleasure to drive, with great handling an manoeuvrab...

We hired Andy and Emma's campervan for a couple of nights while I took part in a long distance triathlon. Sadly the Triathlon didn't go well, but the campervan proved absolutely perfect, and covered all our needs. 
Great communication with the host both before and after our hire, I'm more than happy recommending the camper to anyone considering hiring.
