Carpetright do a cheap cord carpet. Foam backed & very flexible, fixed in place with some b&q spray adhesive.
Cheers, Pad.

nice idea, dont think lino stuck to the sides is going to look too good, and ive no idea how many pairs of scooby doo slippers it would need!
oh and i'll probably have my eye out on a bunch of pipes!
cheers anyway

ahh, you mean carpet for the sides of the camper
the standard florring for autohomes, like gazzas, is brown/biege carpet

We were going for the carpetright option.
Used some of the aforementioned carpet for the floor of my bathroom when I sold my house.
Would not use the carpet on a floor but looked liked very useable stuff for sides of the camper. oh and its cheap !!!

yea i used the cheep carpet for mine as it had a fire in the back destroying a lot of upholstery its only £1.65 per meter i think £17 done my whole back.cost more in glue than carpet i think 5/6 cans at £5.only thing is you are better to scrape off the foam for better adhesion takes an hour or so but worth it. also use carpet fitters spray glue.hope this helps

If you don't mind, I am going to join in hear.
I have a DEVON converted Bus that I am going to strip the interior and convert to camper. At the moment it has fiberglass moldings all round the roof. These I will have to remove to fit curtain rails .I also have to cover the side panels (Every thing back from the sliding doors) and the roof. Any ideas on materials and glue, most welcome.( that don't cost a fortune)
