can anyone send in any piccys of how they have got their vivaro swb vans kitted out. just trying to get some ideas before i av a go. many thanx
I just put the bike on the left side. Two straps to the centre tie down points. Then I've got two storage boxes for all my kit and I've strapped my toolbox on the right wheel the wheel is. That stays put, isn't in the way. Mines a swb high top. The van is full atm so can't take any pics for you. But there's loads of room in them. Will be insulating it over the winter because it is freezing sleeping in the back with no heater!
^^^^that basically. I've got a camp bed in the back. More comfortable than the seat up front with a gap in the middle. Plus you can't have any engines running in the paddock at night to keep the heaters on.
They were there when I bought the van mate. It was already kitted out. Good idea to put the spare wheels though
We have spent some time in the paddock before track days with the Kent massive and had hellova good laugh but we headed up the road to b&b/hotel bout midnightish to get some kip then back down the next mornin for track time then head out for dinner or whatever afterwards. We would also have two bikes in the back of the van this yr plus kit so wouldn't be room back there anyway!
Back is perfect matey! I use 2 50mm Gym Matts laid side by side then a Sleeping Bag on top. Can lay flat out with loads of stretch and leg room etc and I'm 6' tall. Sleep in the Cab U say? Lol!
James, if you're cold in your van, forget trying to insulate it! Instead of a sleeping bag, use a duvet on a few cushions. I used a 4 season bag and was freezing. Tried a 13.5 tog duvet and was toast!
What's with all this 'sleeping with the Bikes' malarky? Obviously the Bikes n Gear are unloaded into a Garage before U set up Sleep Central. If at Cadwell etc then get yer sen a Gazeebo instead.
