VW Caddy Maxi Camper Dream Build | Full Cost Breakdown | Run4Adventure

Around April last year we kicked off our biggest channel project to date, building our dream VW Caddy Maxi camper van. Operation Adventure Bus 3.0 was officially underway, and over the following months we transformed a standard VW Caddy Maxi into our ultimate micro camper van, built for adventure and off grid travel.

We documented the entire process in a full VW Caddy Maxi camper build series, showing every stage from empty van to finished swamper style micro camper. However, one question we get asked more than any other is how much did it actually cost?

In this video I finally break it all down. You will get a full VW Caddy Maxi camper van cost breakdown, covering each element of the build, what we spent, where the money went, and the unexpected costs that cropped up along the way. If you are planning your own camper conversion or are curious about the real world cost of building a micro camper, this video will give you a realistic and honest insight.

Thanks for watching, we'll see you in the next video and as always – stay safe and keep on running!
