This is Rusty, a 2005 Peugeot Boxer that we lovingly converted ourselves three years ago. We've had many wonderful adventures with it and now want to share it with others!
Rusty is compact (less than 5 meters long, so it easily fits in a standard parking space!), but feels spacious inside, thanks in part to the pop-up roof. It drives superbly, and the advantage is that you can easily reach 130 km/h on the highway. Inside, you'll find a kitchenette with a two-burner stove, sink with faucet, refrigerator, and ample storage space. There's a U-shaped seating area with a table that converts into a bed. The bed is 1.40 m wide and 1.80 m long (Siebe himself is 1.85 m tall, which works well if he leans slightly) and sleeps wonderfully comfortably thanks to the thick mattress topper.
Under the inviting awning with lights and decorations, you can relax outdoors. You'll receive complete camping gear: a table, two comfortable chairs (plus two loungers if needed), an outdoor rug, a hammock, and everything you need to prepare a delicious meal.
You can also camp off-grid with Rusty thanks to the built-in second battery. This allows you to camp for two to three days without camping power. The second battery charges while you're driving, and if you need camping power or are staying in one spot for an extended period, you can use the CEE plug.
The van seats four people (the rear seats are two official RDW (Netherlands Vehicle Authority) seats). So if you bring a tent, you can even travel with four people! Furthermore, the camper is very well insulated and comes with an electric heater, so you can travel with it year-round.
Below is a brief summary of the inventory:
- 2-burner gas stove including gas bottle
- Tap with submersible pump, water tanks easily accessible and refillable/emptied at the campsite
- Connection for camping electricity
- Refrigerator on 12V and 220V
- Additional fans at the front for a cooling breeze
- Storage space for your clothes and belongings
- Cozy double bed 1.40 x 1.80 m (with mattress topper, blankets, pillows and sheets included) that can be converted into a seating area with table
- Plates, pans, cutlery, glasses, etc. available
- Good blackout curtains
- Easy-to-fold awning (with solar lights and cozy decorations)
- Camping chairs, table and camping blanket for outdoor use
- Hammock
- Shower bag for outdoor showering (fishing toilet also available)
- Bicycle carrier for 2 bicycles
Since we're just starting on Goboony and want to test it out first, we're currently only accepting trips that aren't too far away (the Netherlands, Belgium, Luxembourg, Germany, and France). If you'd like to travel with our van, Rusty, and have a different destination, please let us know!
Love, Siebe and Joly
