Ford Transit Custom L2H1 fitted with an Exokit side unit and a surf-style sofa bed: a custom-made campervan in Brittany

A Transit Custom converted into a campervan for travel and mountain biking

The first-generation Ford Transit Custom in L2H1 version is a van that appeals due to its intermediate size: more compact than a large van, but with much more space than a simple leisure activity vehicle. It's an ideal vehicle for a comfortable and versatile conversion, capable of accommodating a family, sports equipment, and everything needed for travel.

In this project, the Homad Van team, based in Saint-Brieuc, collaborated with Exokit to equip this Transit with a left side unit and a 120 cm clic-clac surf bench seat. The result: an elegant, functional conversion perfectly suited to the owners' lifestyle.

Ford Transit Custom L2H1: a compact and modular van

The Transit Custom L2H1 (L2 length, H1 height) is a model favored by vanlife enthusiasts. Its extra length compared to the L1 offers more interior space, without sacrificing maneuverability.
With the addition of full insulation and additional side windows, carried out by Homad Van, this van becomes bright, pleasant to live in, and ready for all seasons.

The clients primarily use their van in summer and mid-season for holidays all over France. A solution that combines comfort, practicality, and freedom.

Exokit left side unit: design and practicality

An elegant and personalized finish

The Exokit left side unit was made with an oiled "hint of white" finish for the furniture, creating a soft and bright atmosphere. The table and worktop, meanwhile, have an oiled black ("ebony") finish, adding a touch of elegance and contrast.

This combination creates a warm and modern interior, while remaining easy to maintain.

A complete and functional layout

The side unit is fully equipped to meet daily needs in the van:

Integrated sink with faucet
Two jerrycans (fresh water + grey water)
Electric water pump
42 L refrigerator
Simple electrical system (powering basic equipment)

This setup offers enough autonomy to travel for several days, without any hassle.

120 cm clic-clac surf bench seat: comfort and versatility

A spacious and modular sleeping area

The 120 cm wide clic-clac surf bench seat is an ideal choice for combining comfort and modularity. In the seated position, it allows for travel and relaxation. When unfolded, it transforms into a comfortable double bed.

Optimized storage space

One of the advantages of this conversion is the possibility of storing an electric mountain bike under the bench seat. By simply removing the front wheel, the customer can store their bike with ease. A practical solution for athletes who want to travel with their equipment without sacrificing living space.
