An concise and well layed out plan to convert your van into a camper . I used it to take ideas and plans for my own vans needs .

Good introduction to campervans and the function of their parts.
The book gives a good detailed description of the types of things you can have in a campervan, laws applicable etc. I have to be honest though - personally I was hoping for more of ‘how to’ not ‘what to’ do type book. Still very worth while though but if you’re looking for a guide on converting, this may not be the only book you will need to purchase.

From what I've seen, this is the best single book to buy.
The best book yet, from what I've seen. Good advice, clearly based on real experience. My conversion is in progress and I'm finding the book helpful to refer to along the way. It's also quite inspiring.A couple of comparisons. John Wickersham's Haynes book is quite good, but he's distracted by having built some "coachbuilt" conversions (where you build the body as well as fitting it out) and he "wastes" a lot of space on things most people will never do."How to build for less than £1000" is funny and entertaining, but a lot of it is only relevant to a build using a donor caravan.Speed's "Travel vans" is inspiring, but a bit old-fashioned, it's worth reading but you wouldn't want it as your only book.The subject of this review, Kenny Biggin's book is not cheap, but if you want to buy just one book, it's the best I've seen.I'd say it'll say you considerable time on your conversion firstly because he gives good advice, and secondly because you can refer to the book, then get on with the next job rather than trawling the internet, getting distracted, and having to sort out a bunch of conflicting advice!Good luck!

Bought as a gift
Bought this for my son who is looking for a van to convert. The pictures are very clear and the information is very detailed.
