Mocabu ... where you want
The most valuable time of life is free time. Your everyday work consists of a tight schedule and with every date you have made your desire for flexibility and freedom? Would you like to travel independently, explore the world, discover new places and maybe even work on the go? The solution: live on the camping bus, be at home when traveling. Today here tomorrow there! Whether spontaneously escaped to the sea for one or more nights under the open sky or high up in the mountains. The trend of "modern nomadism" has long been understood by automobile manufacturers and motorhome equipment. The steadily growing number of models and brands and the increased demand for camping and outdoor accessories, help sources for installation and conversion reflects this again. But what is the right type bus for you? How do you feel comfortable? Which model becomes your mobile home? Which installations and conversions are necessary? Can you carry out the renovation yourself or are there any contact points that will help you? Let us be told, because Mocabu is your full altitude - we know what is important! Whether illuminating moments by installing your windows in the bus, the expansion of the sleeping place with one of our branded camping boxes or a chic rear tent, we have what you lack. Here is a guide for you, with preliminary considerations for your dynamic life on tour:
Desired concert - the expansion
Three, two, one, everything yours? It takes a little longer, but with competent help, your dream of camping bus is possible. If you research the word camping bus online, it quickly becomes clear that even after several years and despite countless vehicle variants, the VW "Bulli" still embodies the symbol of a camping bus as an unbeaten number one. The classic among the expanded camping vehicles will probably have a long time as the best friend of the camper through world history. And as is the case with friendships, it also wants to be maintained.
Before your project can start camping bus expansion, you should consider some aspects-thorough planning is everything. Think about which components of the interior are important, plan your budget and create a rough schedule. Of course, this is individually different and depends on the demands your vehicle should meet.
Here is our checklist for your planning purposes:
- How many people travel with you?
- Depending on whether you travel alone or accompanied, you should make the interior of your bus flexible and space -saving - be it with sliding or foldable benches, rotary consoles and sleeping facilities or by additional storage space.
- What should your camper do?
- Short weekend trips, multi-week tours or even permanent camping driving? Plan as precisely as possible here, because it is a big difference whether you only travel with the mini -mamper for two days or two weeks. The equipment should be selected accordingly.
- Keep space - how much storage space do you need?
- Here, too, it depends on the number of people traveling along and what kind of excursion you have in mind. For a surfing or bicycle vacation, for example, it is advisable to attach accommodation for the equipment on the outside of the car, such as with a roof rack.
- What do you want to do in it?
- Is it just enough for you? Or do you also want to cook in your mini mamp, consume food, wash, play board games etc.?
- How much comfort and what equipment do you need?
- The goal is as much comfort as possible in small space? Or is a small survival mobile enough for you that only offers a place to sleep or a roof over your head? Many also use the tours in the motorhome to consciously take a break from the distractions of everyday life such as TV and the Internet and see the core of relaxation, especially in the minimalist way of life. What do you expect from the life on the road?
- Tip from us: create sketches!
- In order to create a sensible room layout, it is always advisable to create sketches with the exact dimensions of the camping bus. Many vehicle manufacturers have PDFs of the models with floor plans and vehicle dimensions that you can use for planning - otherwise simply contact the manufacturer directly.
- You could work for more professional and careful planning with a graphics program, for example Corel Draw, if you don't want to sketch by hand with pencil. With this program you can upload and edit the PDF file of the vehicle manufacturer directly.
- Budget planning
- How expensive the expansion of your travel companion is cannot be said in general and is very different.
- material costs
- This depends primarily on the general initial state of the vehicle - whether it is needed and first has to be polished up or brand new and completely functional in your inventor's hands.
- Who wants to see hardworking craftsmen?
- Do you need a craftsman or are your skills to be converted?
- To install the electrical system, it is always advisable to add a professional for security reasons alone. Also to make the furniture safe, you should have at least one craftsman looking at it and then improve it if necessary. Professional craftsmen and electricians are also very familiar with the current TÜV regulations that you definitely have to keep. You can then prepare everything else on your own and thus inexpensively.
Type - the agony of choice
As a newcomer to the world of camping, the selection is huge and maybe also confusing. The range of models is overwhelming, but with the help of an expert council, we can also help out here and thus give you an overview of the guy.
Self -building is particularly worthwhile for you if you use a used van as the basis - so many discarded authorities still experience his second spring in student hands. Self -building also has its charm from a screwdriver's point of view. After all, the vacation starts when working in the home garage. And you don't have to be a carpenter to make presentable results visible. In the meantime there are perfectly prepared kits for every vehicle type with detailed instructions.
Camping bus
Camping buses are the most agile motorhomes and are set up on the original body of a van with a sliding door. Due to their smaller dimensions, they are more suitable for everyday use than motorhomes from other genres. Heck doors also allow you to take it from bulky luggage. The space is sufficient for two people, but with several it becomes tight. In the case of camping buses, a distinction is made between the compact camper vans in VW Bulli size and the expanded panel van with an integrated bathroom.
The most common models are now a VW T4 T6 or one of the Mercedes V-Class. If you are planning to do everyday and leisure activities with only one vehicle, then an expanded van of this size is the right one for you. With these all -rounders, city trips, thanks to a lean line and suitable for parking work, are just as feasible as a week at the campsite. However, you should keep in mind that the space is rather modest, so you often look for a real bathroom in vain and also do turf trees on the sleeping place. The storage space is also limited, which is why the compact camping bus is ideal for traveling individuals or couples, but is less suitable for families.
A somewhat more spacious variant is then a expanded large panel van. It offers you a little more comfort in terms of living space, since a continuous standing height and a compact wet room are mostly standard. But that also makes him a little longer than a compact camping bus, because expanded panel vans start from 5.40 meters in length. But don't believe in the dream of endless comfort. Of course, the number of fellow travelers, four sleeping places in the vehicle in this size class are decisive for the mass.
Motorhomes
You can see the alcove mobile from the well -arched nose above the cab. In this niche, the so -called alcove, the mostly only, solid bed is located. Fest means in a motorhome bed that it does not have to be converted from the seating group. So you can always use it except while driving. An alcove mobile is the typical family model. Some even offer up to seven people a place to sleep, so this model is quite suitable for large family without having to stack. In an alcove, the topic of storage space is usually not a problem: in addition to clothing and wall cupboards, a rear garage helps, occasionally even a double floor. A point to be considered is that alcove mobile have a massive appearance and are neither particularly agile nor stubborn.
Partially integrated motorhomes
A successful alternative to the Alkovenmobil is a partially integrated Wemhobil. This mobile genus has its name from the construction, in which the original driver's house partially integrated into the living area. The driver's seats - as with camping buses - are usually rotatable and, if necessary, belong to the seating group. However, the sleeping facilities are really limited compared to the alcove mobile - lying areas are usually in the rear or as a lifting bed above the living area. A seating group can also occasionally be converted into a sleeping place. So there is space for couples or smaller families. In contrast to the Alkovenmobil, the partially integrated is flat and low. This leads to a deeper focus, so that the driving experience is very similar to that of a car.
Integrated motorhomes
Integrated motorhomes are the most extravagant version. They impress with an independent bug mask instead of the original cab and a huge windscreen that also ensures airiness inside. Integrated are not necessarily longer than partially integrated, but they stand for more living comfort. The independently designed cab changes seamlessly into the living area, which therefore has a particularly spacious effect.
Integrated often have a lifting bed in the bow over the front seats and therefore usually four sleeping places as standard. The fact that a driver's door is usually only installed is very rare, a passenger door very rarely. In addition, service and maintenance work on the engine are time-consuming due to the special front construction. Disadvantages: a confusing bug with some bad engine access and a relatively high price.
The Bigger, The Better - Liner
Money must not play the main role in this type of installation: the liner dominates the upper class. With start prices of 120,000 euros, this classification is also appropriate. The technically sophisticated and chic structures are based partly on adult truck chassis. The cab is often raised to the level of the living space.
To enlarge the already lavish space, some also rely on incoming and extendable bayments (slide-outs). After all, high-end are models with car garages. But liners also have weaknesses: the dimensions not only require the driver's caution, but also an adapted vacation planning.
Top up your Adventure - what is a sun sail?
We at Mocabu know: nobody wants and should sit in the blazing sun for hours! This not only affects general health, but also on the mind. There are many options. From awnings to awning, in a wide variety of colors, shapes and sizes. But they all have one thing in common, they are relatively time -consuming or complex under construction and have a high entry price. That doesn't have to be! With the sun sails from Deiwo you have an essential in your luggage that is built up in no time and is ready for its use.
Your holiday destination, a large sun terrace of the hotel, a sophisticated balcony that makes nothing but romance, in the background of the subtle but stylishly grilling cook on the buffet, quiet classical music and what spans this scenery? A huge, white sun sail ...
The sun's sail is a visual and sun protection that is made of a robust fabric- often of acrylic, polyester or HDPE fabric- and is attached to the corner of the house wall, a tree or anching in the floor at the corner points. It serves the shading of terraces, gardens or balconies and protects them from wind, rain and curious views. A sun protection sail can also be used as a carport.
Depending on the selected color, a sun protection sail can also be used as a design element. For example, a sail in the color gray and azure brings a chic holiday flair into your garden.
Despite all the positive effects of natural vitamin D-synthesis, the sun sails, awning or also herseerson serve to protect against UV radiation, which can be harmful to health. Nevertheless, the sun protection is not the primary function of these large textiles, another preference is the simultaneous privacy protection for more privacy at home, wherever this is, sometimes here, sometimes or always in the same place. A sun protection sail is therefore an eye -catcher for the balcony, terrace or garden that is easy to assemble.
But that's not all: even small, moist cooling from above, i.e. rain, cannot harm our sun sails. Waterproof impregnated, our sun protection sails also protect you from short rain showers or an upcoming wind. Our DEIWO products are characterized by high-quality workmanship, first-class materials and a fair price-performance ratio.
