My modernisation attempt :)

Greetings all
One topic I broached when I first joined was whether or not to update the interior of my camper. Nearly all the comments I got were against this My Euromobil has / had 2 single beds at the rear and a pull down over the front cab. I suffer with a dodgy shoulder so I always struggled getting in and out of the double and found it very awkward late at night. Our young daughters take the two beds at the back and even when I did try sleeping there, there was little to no room and I was left with about an inch to spare and a locker a few inches above my head. The kids are young and love sleeping in the double, the ladder is a big novelty to them, So myself and my wife decided to turn the room at the back in to a space for ourselves and modernise the rest of the camper while we were at it! I always wanted to paint the units, And after shopping around for a company to come in and do it, all the quotes were in the region's of €1800!! So with some time on our hands we set out to do it ourselves. It wasn't the most difficult of projects although it was time consuming. We used Johnstones Trade Ultra Sealer Primer & Johnstones Satin paint for top coats. I went to B&Q for the flooring which is a special adhesive laminate and quite cheap at €16 a packet. It looked so good that rather than wallpaper we decided to use it on the walls too! Just waiting for new curtains to arrive then I will get the seats reupholstered and we will be all set! We went with a mix of grey and white paint in the front and kitchen areas, I will post more pictures later

Thanks Panda, Very happy with how it turned out

Nice job. Looks really well.

Looks great, we done similar to ours and have since changed it again. I'll post photos when I get all the finer bits finished.

I struggled with the mind set of changing it then thought, it's mine, if it was my house I'd change it without a thought. We plan to keep it so what the hell

It's now the way we want and no compromises.

A lovely looking job, well done on taking the bit between the teeth. I bet there are many of us out there who would like to make a change to the internal layout but it has never got past the planning stage.

One thing to consider. I notice the mattress seems to be directly on top of the wood, to avoid condensation it's a good idea to have some sort of ventilation between the two. CLICK

That looks great only if Motorhome manufactures would listen to the people who are going to buy them I’m really considering changing the toilet round we hate our layout

The old girl looks great Keith,I always think those single arrangement lend to great double setup even if you loose a bit of garage space. Show us a few more pick's when you have the rest done.

I got some of the same stuff from Kiravans.co.uk sold by the meter what bits are Left over make great plate rattle stoppers.

Here is another not so great pic, Where you can see a bit of the floor better along with the grey that I have used around the kitchen area. The difference since going white with the interior is night and day!

Thanks so much Malcolm, Some very kind words!

Mine actually never had garage access from the inside surprisingly, So made perfect sense to make the change. Although a friend of mine has a Euromobil with a factory transverse bed which has an access panel underneath so surprised they never tried to incorporate one.

I love it!

nice
