Taken from Camper van illegally parked on seafront moves on
I like how the comments are split 50/50 between the usual pricks frothing at the mouth and people rationally discussing what a great vehicle it is
"Camper van" doesn't really do this justice

I downsized from my previous monstrosity but my current van is still killing me on petrol mpgReally who needs a van that big other than space marines. Surely it’s size isolates you from all the travelling stuff you are meant to appreciate.
Pretty cool though. And pretty expensive. I’d guess 230 grand minimum

I have never been a fan of #vanlife because why shit in a bucket and dine on dairylea on toast when you could stay in a nice hotel. However, I would like a toterhome for track days.

Only mentioned you as it was you that flagged up that website with expedition vans that I lust after on ages ago I think.

It would look a thousand times better if they gave the fucking thing some paint.I wonder which side you're on
"rationally discussing what a great vehicle it is"
What is it? It looks like some kind of military thing with a shed welded onto the back. If the right hand side is the back, it can't be road legal with that gap to the road.

let me rephrase that... Fuck off
In Aus a lot of people live in amazing buses. Mostly older people who have retired and spend their time chasing the perfect weather. They get called grey nomads. And as I live in a tourist town I often see the same buses around the same time every year.
There's this amazing huge Volvo bus, its completely chromed. One year I managed to blag my way into it for a look and it was super luxurious inside. At the time I was hanging out with a fella who was a bit criminal minded and between us we hatched a cunning plan to steal it..... It'll be back again in July
I actually used to own a 52 seater bus turned home in England in the 80s, woodfire stove etc.. and sold it to come here. The idea being to get another one and live in a country with room to park up without getting arrested all the time. But life happened and the closest I got to it was a pop top Kombi.
So a bus is now my retirement plan, although recently I've been thinking about houseboats a lot

I've actually been looking at this as a project and future home. My eldest has just bought 12 acres in town so I could put it there and do it up....then put it in the marina.

Yup, the smallish circus that comes to a country town near me had several of these truck-based campers mostly housing whole families, and what looked like a converted cattle truck, with double-decker “pod” accommodation for single performers/staff. IIRC it was 8-10 pods on each trailer.

Spymaster I am so disappointed in you. As you point out, there is a massive overhang at the back of the van in the op.
Not only that, but the overhang sticks out across the whole width of the cycle lane.
That could be a killer for an unwary cyclist or two
back overhang is for clearance when you are driving up and down crazy countryside

It seems Hove's 'The Argus' readers have had previous beef with these "Travellers/Not Travellers" clogging up the seafront before.

I like this one...
Dozens of camper vans pitch up on seafront lawns
SCORES of camper van and caravan owners have driven onto a protected seafront site.
I like this one...
