Hey, I'm Neil!

Colchester , United Kingdom – Member since May 2024

When the kids left home Maggie and I had several trips riding our motorbike on the continent. After a camper van tour of New Zealand in 2023 we decided to get a van and do a simple conversion to be explore some more.
I lead a church and community centre in Colchester, Maggie runs the cafe there.

We had a second successful trip in Vincent, we were very happy with the experience as before :-) July 2025

We had such a lovely time! It was a great introduction to camper vans for us, huge thanks to Neil and Maggie, who are delightful. Vincent has been lovingly created, with so much thought, there was nothing missing. Just when I realised I had forgotten to bring along kitchen roll, there it was! Great to have electric hook up, we loved the water “urn” (not sure what to call it, but a genius addition!). We didn’t need to use his toilet or shower as we wimped out and stayed somewhere that had those facilities, but I have no doubt that we would have survived off grid with Vincent. We cannot recommend this camper van enough, and his owners. April 2025
Response from Neil thank you - so glad you had such a good time

I enjoyed driving Vincent, a very easy to drive van indeed. The quirky right hand hand break was very novel. I was on a work trip and so did not use all the facilities as I just needed a place to rest my head and that is all. I am sure someone who wants to enjoy the outdoor camping experience will find all you need on board. Vincent is simpler than some campers and so it depends on your requirements. The chemical loo has a little wigwam to preserve privacy, I did not need it as I had a nearby loo to use. I did use the table and chairs that fold away after use and are for outside. Had a slight struggle with working out the tables mechanism but got there in the end. Make sure you get a grasp on the battery power charging system. I believe it would be simple enough but again I did not need it as I had power from an electrical external supply. Thanks Vincent, for keeping me warm and dry and driving so well. In the pictures you can see I was not travelling alone and the arch way is my work and the reason I was travelling. August 2024

Really enjoyed our first experience of life in a campervan. 'Vincent' made our Latitude experience the best. Good communication with Neil, seamless pickup and handover. Vincent was well equipped and comfortable, and perfectly suited our needs. Thank you Neil July 2024
