Cool Anyone got Van kitted out as a workshop in the back

Thinking about doing this to my own vivaro. Always doing jobs all over the place so would be good to have a wee workshop in the back of the van with all my tools.
Was just wondering if anyone else has kitted one out like a service vehicle.
Looking for inspiration, pictures or anything.

Would even like to know how the AA and RAC vans are arranged in the back

cheers

We have loads of different vans kitted out for the BCCC events, many of them are 'Day Vans' in the front and have garages in the back.

Theres loads of different solutions; we are just doing another now. The van we have chosen is a Fiat Ducato Maxi....will try to get some pictures of that and another Merc Ex-Riot Van that we recently did.

Come from Stranraer got a kind of fun club at the old kart circuit down hear. Gordon came down and raced a few times at it. Got a parilla 100cc water cooled ica used to be paul di restas kart, 100cc Tm jica and a 100cc parilla swift jica the swift was one of lennox lambs engines. All tucked up in the shed though lost intrest in it. 2 of them not even been run in since last build just the swift thats been used. Can't remember the last time I was up Would have been with my dad ( Ian Gordon) the last time i was up
