Currently, all our conversions are built on 2018+ MWB Mercedes-Benz Sprinters. These vans provide the perfect balance of space, reliability, and driving comfort, making them an excellent base for our builds.

We work with a number of trusted partners to source both brand-new and used vehicles for conversion. We don’t add anything to the price for sourcing the vehicle on your behalf.

If you already have a van that meets the correct specification, we’re also very happy to convert that for you.
