Van conversion 101 | EP. 2 | Where do I start? (Planning and preparation)

The second video in our step-by-step video series detailing how to convert a van from start to finish.

Knowing where (and how!) to start on any project is often the most intimidating part, and can also lead to not starting at all. So, as the second video in our full van conversion guide we go through, what you should know before starting and the initial steps once you feel fully committed.

SPONSORSHIP

This video is sponsored by Sterling Insurance. Sterling offer great policies for a wide range of vehicles including motorhomes and converted vans. As young drivers we found it pretty hard to find anyone to insure us, but Sterling were amazing, offering us a quote quickly and explaining the whole process. We've now been with them for over 2 years (originally NOT as part of sponsorship) and have been extremely happy with their service.

Some of the reasons why we love them include:
Provide year-long cover in Europe
Cover the vehicle while it's being converted
Easy quotes even as young drivers with 'unconventional' jobs
Breakdown cover (in Europe too)
