Hi mate welcome and all the best for your new venture

Hi, likewise I am coming towards the end of my camper conversion. I decided to do a french bed style conversion this time (my 3rd ducato conversion). I am very pleased with the progress, but do not seem to have quite as much space as my previous conversions which both had a high level bed across the vehicle with loads of space underneath. Good luck with your conversion, and look forward to hearing about your progress. Geoff.

I think that is similar to one of my earlier ducatos, 2001 lwb l3/h2. Mine was a maxi rated at 3500kg and had 16" wheels, wing scuff protecters and was designated an 18. I believe that yours could be on 15" wheels, 3300kg and is a model 14. Nice vehicle and mine made a lovely camper. Geoff.

Google SBMCC (Selfbuild Motorcaravanners Club).

You should get lots of ideas and practical help from that site.

Good luck.
