Lincolnshire show was a great success, with many people visiting the stand and seeing the V-trek van for the first time, the positive feed back was that they were very impressed with the style and layout. (This was the first time that we had exhibited at any show.) The weather help and was fantastic for both the show days, which I think is pretty unusual!
V-trek Mercedes campervan will be showing at this years Lincolnshire Show on the 24th & 25th of June 2009 at the Lincolnshire showground, on Witham Oil & Paint Ltd Stand. If you would like to come and meet us, have some refreshments and take a closer look around one of the campervans then please call in at Stand No. 85 Row C, 3rd Avenue. Look forward to seeing you then!
After going to the bike show at the NEC Birmingham, we have come to the conclusion that we would like to put a monster under the bed.!!
Ducati make a compact lightweight sports bike that we are keen to put in the v-trek van. We do now need to do a bit of careful measuring and manufacturing of a suitable ramp/stand for the bike in the boot. If the bike will fit, it will make an excellent touring vehicle for two once at location. Will keep you posted and pictures once we get to that stage.
The new show van has come back from the workshop in the burr walnut finish, which looks fantastic! The new design with the curves on the bathroom wall and the end cupboard softens the lines within the van. In the bathroom there is now a brush aluminum shower wall which reflect the the modern LED lighting giving a new look to the interior of the v-trek bathroom.
It has been a long old wait but finally we have got sorted with the privacy windows for the v-trek van. A wait well worth waiting for! We have not seen any other camper van that has these particular windows in as yet. The beauty for them is that they look a limo black from the outside, but do not restrict the light from coming in. With the flush finish they look like a glass window, but actually they are a double glazed plastic pane. Take a look at the picture.
A new addition to one of the V-trek camper vans is a dog cage. This allows for up to two small dogs to be carried safely while travelling. A cage has been made under the sofa which can be pulled out to allow extra room for the dogs, or removed completely and replaced with a draw for extra storage.
Work has started on the V-trek show van. The interior of this van will be finished in a walnut veneer, which will look completely different to the Carbon fibre finish of the last van. We are hoping that the V-trek van will be finished in time for the Goodwood Revival weekend at the end of September. fingers crossed! Just hope that we can finally get sorted with the tinted windows.
The V-trek campervan came back from the fitters last Friday and it looks fantastic! The carbon Fibre is a very retro modern look that works really well with the brush stainless steel and the blue LED lighting. We are still awaiting for the delivery of the tinted windows, at present we have inserted clear panes but these will be changed at a later date. The customer of this van had the extra of Recaro seats which makes all the difference for the passenger and the driver, well worth the extra.

The Mercedes van came back from the body shop looking like a new concept vehicle! The metallic paint has united all the work of the back composite door to the rest of the van. Very pleased with the finished result of the v-trek van.
