Mate has just bought a van to convert, Renault Master I think it is.
He's not on here, so I thought I'd ask...
Who and where is the best place to get the 'innards' to do the conversion - cooker, sink, table, panelling etc??
People just say eBay, but who on there would people recommend, and / or are there other people we should know about that are not on there...???

I converted a LWB Renault Master and I would be happy to help your friend out in whatever way I can if you message me with their email address etc.
As for the best place to buy all they will need for the conversion, well the best place with quite literally everything under one roof is Magnums Motorhomes at Grimsby......... https://magnummotorhomes.co.uk/
They aren't the cheapest, but boy oh boy do they know what they are talking about.
They will also need loads of electrical stuff and this company is brilliant http://www.vehicle-wiring-products.eu/
The Master isn't the easiest van to convert because of the tumble home of the sides, but they are an amazing van to drive. As I wrote earlier, if I can help your friend in any way, then let me know.

There is a great World to be found out there, but by the very day, to find where it is becomes more of a challenge!
