“Tess 2.0” : VW T6.1 TDI450 4Motion LWB Transporter

Converted for Janette from Newcastle, NSW

This girl has everything!

Tess is a one of a kind camper in nearly every respect. The original owners dreams for their perfect camper were detailed and extensive and they knew Camper Envy was the only company who could complete the brief. Three under chassis water tanks and a town supply, additional electrics, VB air suspension, bespoke seating with Bentley Portofino leather, custom cabinetry layout, overhead storage for a projector and much more. Tess had everything or so we thought!

Tess has been updated and reimagined. Over the last 12 months as with everything certain elements of our conversions have evolved. We took the opportunity to give Tess a top to bottom make over, bringing certain elements into line with current specs, thoroughly inspecting every last component and also replacing a few items that were unique to this owner but not necessarily for the wider market.

This renovation included new lower cabinetry, a new sink and plumbing, new cooktop, electric components and more. The finished product is simple, beautiful, and hugely functional. Tess is immaculate in every respect, she has a huge spec and is extremely capable.
