Based in Stevenage, Hertfordshire, Outlandish is capable of overhauling a van in around two hours with a unit that can be slid in and out in just minutes.

Speaking to , Outlandish boss Max McMurdo said: “I only realised how small the Volkswagen ID.Buzz is when I took delivery of mine.

Best of all, the top-of-the-range Expedition set-up costs just under £5,000 - much cheaper than most room decorations in your home.

McMurdo added: “New motorhomes and campers can get expensive.

“The point of our company is for people to rock up with cheap vans that they’d bought for next-to-nothing, and then leave with a completely overhauled interior for a reasonable price.”

According to their website, Outlandish’s mission is to make camper conversions accessible and affordable for all with a safe and secure fixing for camper pods, bike racks, tool boxes and surf boards.

A cheaper Adventurer option is also available that advertises itself as suitable for micro campers measuring over 1600mm in length - including the Citroen Berlingo, Peugeot Partner, VW caddy SWB and Ford Transit Connect SWB.

Described as “perfect for an overnight stay or weekend away in a micro, small or medium-sized van”, the kit includes a raised kitchen area that slides out to create a table for dining, working or food prep.

There’s also a desk that fits on top of the low sofa to create a level platform, while two long tables simply slide between the units to make the short double bed.

She explained her reasoning for stuffing her belongings into the cramped motor and living life in the driver's seat.

"I wanted to retire at 65 and I couldn't afford it," she revealed to CheapRVLiving.

"I need to wait until I'm 70 to have social security.

"I discovered that I actually could lie flat in here and took everything that I needed.

"I already had the car and she gets 55 miles a gallon."
