I actually quite like the painted ones....they just look a bit more "homely".

*goes to get coat* :wink:

Just to be different, I like the painted ones......But I think that you should not have them in Brown.....Tooo much Brown.

Slot mags look crap.....Sorry just my humble.....I would not have them on my van....

I ripped my interior out.

It is now a homebrew day van/weekender.

It has a full width R&R bed. But thats it really. Electrical hook-up but no leisure battery as yet. Zig unit not curently installed but will be eventually.

I have a removable chest/box with a table top that I put in for crockery, cutlery, stove, washbowl and rations. I use a cool box when required for perishables.

The roof is used for storage of bedding, camping/sailing gear and clothes.

I have hook to tow a sailing dinghy.

No fixed cooker, sink, drainer, fridge, heater, water tanks, cupboards, tv, etc. Maximising utility, without cluttering the place up.

Not everyones cup of tea, I know.

Cheers

Steve H
