It's from a place in Bridgend in South Wales. They have an eBay account and Facebook page. Think their Facebook page is called BCLC RnR Beds, can't remember their eBay name now though. Very friendly and helpful.

It's for a swb so I went for the spacesaver version. The normal style with a little seat on the rear would have worked but would have filled too much of the van in the seated position, and I wanted to keep some storage area. I do have the bulkhead removed and the bed will extend about 6ft and just fit in with the front seats forward. It will take up ALL of the rear though when in bed position :lol: I also decided to go with shorter legs due to less headroom. Basically it's a pretty much a standard 3/4 spacesaver with little legs!!

Price for bed was £425 all in (+£35 fitting). They do other options for the upholstery/kickboards/seatbelts/headrests etc but I just wanted the basics.

I will update with pic's when it's done. Hopefully end of next week.
