Buzzy the Ex BG Maxi camper.

[HeftyDanielson]

Thought I'd start a thread to keep track of the progress and maintenance activities.

She's a 11 plate Ex BG Maxi which has already had a camper conversion.
Fully carpeted, insulated, wired in solar panel, leisure battery on its own ring main, pull out bed and mini fridge.

Interior, electric windows, mirrors, double din head unit with reverse camera and most importantly, AIRCON!

The engine is your usual 1.6 tdi with a mild 145k miles now.

The day I brought her home.


Interior.


Rear conversion.


Dog tax, keeping an eye on things. Spot the upgrades she's protecting.



Servicing, maintenance and cleaning coming up.
Comments and feedback are appreciated.

I'll be chucking more up here alongside my Megane track car.

Nice! Just getting one myself.

Few more updates, slowly getting into the swing of van life.


Think the dog approves.


Gave her a good full service, all filters and engine oil changed. Brake fluid is coming soon with R32 brake upgrade.


Cleaning and tidying started whilst under the bonnet.


All these pesky screws changed to make future me's life easier.


Engine bay needs a tart up.


Reminder to clean behind your arches! Thankfully no rust.



Tested a night away, the camper conversion was great, even in near zero temps we were lovely and warm.


As always, more of the van, and my track build can be found here.

Helps negate the camper conversion weight and the future hassle of rusty arches. Win Win. However, the R32 brake conversion added all the weight back in.
