Mercedes Viano Campervan Conversion Review
At Free Spirit Campervans, we take pride in crafting unique, high-quality campervan conversions, and nothing makes us happier than hearing from satisfied customers. One review that really stood out to us came from a delighted customer who picked up their Mercedes Viano camper van conversion in April 2021.
In their own words:
“Delighted with our Mercedes Viano camper van conversion. We picked it up in April 2021 and did have to wait a while. The build quality of the conversion is excellent though and we wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Free Spirit to anyone.”
Our campervans, like the Mercedes Viano, are built with both performance and comfort in mind. This luxury vehicle offers plenty of space and detailing, making it a perfect base for conversion.
We strive to maintain the highest standards of craftsmanship, and it’s always a pleasure to hear that our customers appreciate the quality we deliver.
A Tailored Experience – The Mercedes Viano Campervan Conversion
When the customer visited us in August 2020, they were able to tour our yard, where they selected a range of custom features for their camper, including a heater, swivel front seat, and curtains.
We believe in giving our customers the flexibility to build their dream campervan, so our team is always on hand to explain each option, helping you to make informed decisions that suit your travel style.
Our customer also noted that while our stock changes quickly, the quality of every vehicle we offer remains consistent. And even though they had to wait a while—due to COVID-19 and supply chain challenges—they were understanding, and the final result was more than worth the wait.
Why the Mercedes Viano Campervan Conversion Stands Out
The Mercedes Viano is an outstanding platform for camper conversion, and it’s easy to see why it remains one of our most popular models. Its luxurious interior, powerful engine, and excellent build quality make it a joy to drive and stay in.
The Viano is spacious enough to accommodate all the comforts of a full camper setup, from swivel seats to extra heating, making it a versatile and functional choice for both long trips and weekend getaways.
Our customer echoed this sentiment, stating: “The van looked stunning when I picked it up, and all the paperwork was sorted out without bother.”
We know that the details matter, which is why we take care of all the necessary MOTs, registrations, and paperwork, so you don’t have to worry about anything except enjoying your new van. Our base vehicles also come with a no-quibble warranty, and we provide a 12-month warranty on the conversion, ensuring you have complete peace of mind.
Top-Tier Customer Service and Aftercare
At Free Spirit Campervans, we pride ourselves on our high-quality conversions and the service we offer throughout the entire process. While this customer experienced some minor issues—a perished washer bottle cap and a failed rear wiper motor—our team resolved them swiftly and without hesitation. As the review mentions:
“I returned in the van, and these were changed without any quibble whilst I waited. The base vehicle comes with a no-quibble warranty and the conversion itself 12 months.”
Even after your purchase, we’re here to help with any repairs, updates, or questions you may have.
Whether you need to come back for a check-up or want to add more customisations later down the line, we’re committed to offering the same level of attention and care as we did from the start.
Why Free Spirit Campervans?
This particular review also highlights one of the key reasons why so many people choose Free Spirit for their campervan conversions: value for money. Our customer noted:
“Yes, it’s not cheap, but a T5 or T6 would easily be another £10,000.”
While some conversions may come at a higher price point, the Mercedes Viano offers exceptional value for the quality of the build.
You’re not just buying a vehicle—you’re investing in a lifestyle filled with adventure, comfort, and freedom. Every element, from the bespoke furniture to the high-grade materials, is designed to provide long-term enjoyment and reliability.
We are always upfront about our timelines and pricing, and we understand that patience is key when waiting for a high-quality conversion.
As our reviewer said: “I did have to ring quite a bit to chase how things were going, but as this was over a Covid lockdown and the winter period, I wasn’t particularly bothered.”
We’re always working to communicate effectively with our customers, ensuring they know what to expect every step of the way. And despite any minor delays, the end result is always worth it.
Continued Excellence Under New Ownership
We’re also thrilled that this reviewer appreciated the ongoing support they’ve received even after the company changed ownership. They mention:
“By way of an edit, the firm is in new ownership now, and the team has been fantastic in helping with things since. I was there this week to have a repair done, and they couldn’t have been more helpful. Thoroughly recommended!”
The new ownership team has been committed to maintaining even higher standards, and it’s great to see that customers continue to have such positive experiences. We’re always here to help, whether it’s with a repair, a customisation, or simply answering questions about your campervan.

Delighted with our Mercedes Viano camper van conversion. We picked it up in April 2021 and did have to wait a while. The build quality of the conversion is excellent though and we wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Free Spirit to anyone.
It’s interesting reading through the various reviews. Some we can relate to; others not. We went down to see them in August last year and found the yard to be exactly as the web site photos. Rupert has a very high stock turnover so whilst the models differed to the ones shown and the price we paid varied slightly it was in line with what we were expecting.
We were impressed with the build quality of what we saw and as we’ve come to learn, Rupert is a very busy person and delightfully chaotic at times, so we were shown round by one of the guys in the yard as well as Rupert and given all the time we needed. We had everything explained to us and selected a couple of options; heater, swivel front seat and curtains. We put the deposit down in August and then had to wait a while due to Covid. The vehicle was MoT’d and registered without any issues. The vehicles are all Japanese imports.
I did have to ring quite a bit to chase how things were going but as this was over a Covid lockdown and the winter period, I wasn’t particularly bothered.
The van looked stunning when I picked it up and all the paperwork was sorted out without bother. There were no surprises, though I did have a couple of faults that needed to be corrected, a washer bottle cap had perished and the rear wiper motor had failed. I returned in the van and these were changed without any quibble whilst I waited. The base vehicle comes with a no quibble warranty and the conversion itself 12 months.
I haven’t met anyone yet who isn’t impressed with the quality of workmanship with this conversion. Yes, it’s not cheap but a T5 or T6 would easily be another £10,000.
So, I would recommend Free Spirit, but be prepared to wait. The clue’s in the title of the company!
By way of an edit, the firm is in new ownership now and the team have been fantastic in helping with things since. I was there this week to have a repair done and they couldn’t have been more helpful. Thoroughly recommended!
