What's the best camper van for a family of three?
We are new to the world of campers and would like to buy a van. What would be the best camper van for a family of three?

A camper based on a medium-size van like the Ford Transit Custom or Volkswagen Transporter would be fine for a family of three because it provides two double beds (one in the raised roof compartment and another via the rear seats).
If you have the budget then I'd recommend Volkswagen California and Ford Transit Custom Nugget - both are excellent. However, if you don't have £40k+ to drop on a camper then there are a lot of cheaper alternatives that have been converted by independent specialists.

Refined and easy to drive, excellent driver and passenger comfort, still the coolest way to camp.
Will sleep up to four adults, fully fitted kitchenette, available with Ford's powerful 185PS EcoBlue diesel.
