Some of your thoughts if possible...

We have a 2016 VW T6 Campervan which we hire as part of the fleet. Obviously during the summer it's out all the time. During the winter, as expected, it's much quieter.

So have been thinking of ways in which to utilise it, and have come around to thinking of it as flexible office space. Here's a pic of the interior:



(although ours has different colour wood).



As you can see - has a table, bench seat, with the roof popped it's easy to stand up in, has a mini fridge, heating (when connected via mains) and radio. So I've been thinking:

Add in wifi
Put milk and water in the fridge etc
Add a coffee machine
Use the 25m mains cable to hook it to the mains (location dependent)
Has sink and water tank which can be used

Now we have a business unit (which holds the supercars we hire) so could set it up outside and hook up to our mains and wifi, or, find a location with a view locally and do the same.

It's a brief outline, and having worked in it myself with my laptop before it does make a cool space to work from - but would it appeal? That's where i'd love some thoughts.....

Thanks, Mark

Not a bad idea.

We don't have any space inside to offer at the unit, but I see where you're coming from

I can imagine working from it full time for more than a few weeks

We're thinking more like a day here and there just like those you can hire in office blocks if you need somewhere isolated to work or somewhere different from home working, or a meeting etc

Agreed, meetings of more than 2 wouldn't suit it, we're thinking more of mainly one person needing a small quirky office space with a difference for a few hours or a day etc
