We bought a VW Caddy Maxi last August and have converted to hold a double bed in the back for our trips to ultra races and short holidays. I took some photos along the way and put them together in a video. It last 6mins 52secs …

I set up this blog (Oct 06) to record my training and thoughts in preparing for the 2007 WHW Race – a 95 mile ultra race from Milngavie to Fort William.
I have now run 52 ultras over the past 14 years including the whw 6 times and you can read all about them, watch my race videos and lots more by using the tabs at the top of the blog.

That looks like a fairly swish conversion job you’ve done there; I’ll be looking forward to hearing how your first go at using it in anger went!
Questions – is the bed frame permanently fixed in, or could it be taken out (if, say, you had a need to use the van to transport something that was too big for a car)?
Blast, pressed “post” too quickly.
2nd question: How did you find the underbed storage space/drawers – is there enough room for all your kit, or does some of it have to be piled up in the back while you travel (e.g the awning etc)?
Watching this has given me ideas for taking on a project of my own…
…and I’ve just seen your post on Facebook – feel a bit silly now. Hopefully the van is found & returned intact!
