Maria's Converted van

This is Elma ☺️ Elma is a project close to our hearts! ❤️ The seating area can be converted into a nice, comfortable bed in no time at all. With dimensions of 1.5m x 1.8m, two adults and a child can easily sleep in it. Through the skylight, which is located directly above the bed, you can watch the stars at night. The kitchen has a large sink and a gas stove with an 11 kg propane bottle. The most necessary cooking utensils and a generous work surface are also available. Large wall cabinets, drawers, cupboards, storage compartments and the bed box provide plenty of storage space. With the 105 litre fresh water tank, you can easily live self-sufficiently for a few days. The water is then not only available for the sink, but also for our shower in the modern bathroom. Even those who prefer warm showers can enjoy the shower thanks to the hot water boiler. The used water collects underneath the vehicle in a 75-litre waste water tank, which is easily and conveniently emptied via a radio-controlled valve. If there is no toilet nearby, a dry toilet is available. Because we built Elma ourselves, being self-sufficient was very important to us. There is a 400 Wp photovoltaic system on the roof, which charges our 2kWh battery (LiFePO4) very well. The battery can also be charged via an external socket and vehicle power in the car. Thanks to the powerful battery, everything in Elma is supplied with electricity - 12 AND 230 volts! Even on cold days you don't have to worry about freezing because there is a powerful auxiliary heater installed. Next to our solar module there is a roof terrace on the roof. You can access this via a ladder. Here you can relax and enjoy your morning coffee with a beautiful view. Elma has a great motor. Thanks to the 177 hp engine with 3.0 litres displacement and a low range, it can get everyone and everything to their destination quickly and without any problems. With Elma you can enjoy a wonderful trip to the fullest! If you have any questions, please write to us! ☺️ We look forward to seeing you! 🎉
