Your Vision, Our Craftsmanship: A Transparent Guide to Bespoke Pricing

At Unfollow Camper Vans in Cork, we believe in clear, honest pricing. The cost of a bespoke conversion is driven by three main factors: the size of your base van, the complexity of your systems, and the quality of the materials you choose.

Unlike off-the-shelf kits or DIY, a custom build is an investment in your lifestyle, safety, and comfort. We ensure every euro spent translates into a durable, certified, and perfect home-on-wheels.

Before we dive into our general pricing guide, please don’t be put off if our mentioned price ranges don’t match your budget. We always are committed to help you achieve your campervan vision and do our best to let it come to life – for example by designing a camper with your end vision in mind but adding certain appliances like hot water at a later stage, but in a camper which is already prepared for it.

Now here is a general pricing guide to help you budget for your dream conversion:

Small Vans (e.g., VW Transporter, Ford Custom, Renault Trafic)

Guide Price Range: €30,000 to €50,000 + VAT (Conversion Cost Only)

Important Notes on Pricing:

  • VAT: All prices listed are for the conversion work only and are exclusive of VAT (currently 23% in Ireland).
  • Base Vehicle: These prices do not include the cost of the van itself. We can advise you on sourcing the perfect base vehicle for your build.
  • Bespoke = Value: Remember, you are investing in local Irish craftsmanship, certified safety standards (Engineer, RGI), a 12-month warranty, and a final product that is uniquely suited to your lifestyle—something a mass-produced motorhome cannot offer.
