Reviews & comments…
We pride ourselves on providing excellent customer service and amazing camper van conversions from our base near Redruth, Cornwall. We aim to get things right, every time. Sometimes things don’t turn out as planned and we don’t shy away from publishing any unfavourable reviews – it gives us a chance to continue improving. We always listen.
Ecowagon has been converting VW vans to campervans at its Cornish base for some time but 2018 saw its exhibit at the Motorhome and Caravan Show for the first time. Print Editor Stuart Kidman of Caravan and Camping Club took a closer look at one of its latest models, the Expo Plus VW T6 conversion.
The price in the video review is advertised at £67,000.00 for the base van and conversion. Expo Plus conversions start at £34,995.00 and the Expo VW camper van conversion is from £17,995.00. You can see the prices of all our conversions here.
It was a privilege to hear Stuart sing our praises:
We sat in the Expo Plus and it’s utterly stunning… really, really excellent conversion.
Nick Harding took a look at the Ecowagon Switch bespoke Volkswagen campervan conversion boasting a plethora of luxury options which Club members Jeff and Nikki have been using to tour Africa. Read the full test report of this very special Ecowagon Switch VW conversion on pages 102-104 in the June 2018 issue of the Club Magazine (if you’re a subscriber).
Please note that the van is reported at a price of £80,000 but the conversion is from £24,995.00 (as of November 2018). Jeff and Nikki purchased a very high spec VW Transporter van for this conversion.
From April 2016, MMM magazine look at some of the best T5 VW campervans on the market. We had some stiff competition here but we decided to present a van that definitely had character!
The Ecowagon Ultimate Explorer (no longer produced) is reviewed – a forerunner to the Expo and Expo Plus. Inspired by a Scottish colour palette with heather and moorland hues, this VW conversion interior is BRIGHT and BOLD in equal measures. Please note that this conversion does not have the bespoke Ecowagon blinds that we now fit to our T5 and T6 conversions. Many other advances have been made too including technology and flexibility. We constantly improve and innovate.
The Ecowagon review begins at 12 minutes and 23 seconds and ends at 15 minutes and 59 seconds.

We have been dreaming of a VW Camper for some time and spent endless hours researching what we wanted. Taking early retirement this year has enabled the dream to come true. We first saw Kenny and Ecowagon at a camper van show in Exeter in March this year and we were blown away by what we saw and the outstanding quality of the conversions. The research, debate and discussion continued when in late summer we had sourced a donor van and we were finally in a position to take the plunge. And all we could think of was an Ecowagon camper, nothing else would do! Today we took delivery of our camper and we are absolutely delighted and thrilled with it; the attention to detail and quality of the finish are exemplary. Kenny and the team have been extremely helpful and provided excellent guidance and endless ideas throughout this process. We cannot thank them enough.

We just wanted to thank you for our superb camper van conversion which we picked up on Saturday. We stayed overnight on our way back to Pembrokeshire and had our first experience of the comfort the van now provides.
During our van conversion odyssey, we looked at many conversion companies and were fortunate to meet you at the recent Exeter motor home show. It quickly became apparent to us the quality of the van conversions that Ecowagon achieve, in particular the total attention to detail.
During the conversion period you answered all our enquiries promptly and kept us updated with regular photos which we appreciated. The completed van photos on your Facebook show the high quality of your work, we shall be recommending Ecowagon to any people we meet during our travels who are considering a van conversion. A special thanks to John for the quality of his cabinet making and his design CAD skills!
Kind regards
Phil and Ceri

Asked to do a day van style conversion on our T5 as we wanted a full width bed rather than cupboards down the side. Still managed to get a hob, sink, fridge, 240V and 12V, plus a massive cupboard and drawer. Very clever design and done from scratch to meet our requirements. Quality and finish both great, staff are polite, knowledgeable and down to Earth. Will be back soon for a wind out awning!

These guys are great!! 5* all round… the transit custom seats I chose to have put in my T5 where a bit of a task, but they did it & they look awesome to top it off they fitted my floor as well… the service provided was efficient and friendly… fully recommended, one happy lady.

Thanks to Kenny, John, Alex and everyone else at Ecowagon. Really love my T5 camper. Stylish, high quality and has everything I need. Such friendly service. No hard sale. Kenny and John answered my never-ending questions without making me feel like a nuisance. Looking forward to some great times in my van.

Picked my newly converted “Ecowagon” up on Monday and headed straight for Salcombe to try it out for 3 days. Absolutely blown away with the attention to detail and finish of the whole conversion. If you need a quality bespoke conversion then these are the boys to use. But be quick, they are already booked up to xmas, get in before they put prices up!!!

We are so delighted with our camper van from Ecowagon, thank you Kenny and everyone who turned our van into such a stunning home on wheels! We’ve already had a weekend away in it and it has surpassed all expectations, the finish is beautiful, everything feels really sturdy and we were so pleased with the clever design that gave us loads of storage space as well plenty of room for 4 of us plus 2 dogs. My kids want to live in it, literally – they did their homework sat in there last night (so it must have magic powers too). Everything works, fits neatly, it came in on time and on budget – we couldn’t be happier.

Kenny, John and Jay turned my old electrician’s van into far more than a camper. The meticulous attention to every little detail has produced a work of art. Well worth every penny.
Here’s a collection of not so good reviews, some are even quite strange.

We called into Ecowagon almost 3 months ago… the guy we saw assured us Kenny would call us to discuss a quote for some units we wanted to have made and fitted… still waiting for that call…

I contacted this ‘specialist’ company about taking my van in to them to carry out some work converting my van. They took all my details and no one has had taken the time or courtesy to contact me – how can people turn away thousands of pounds!! Complete lack of customer care.
Interestingly, Chris Smith changed his name to Jayne Pearce recently. Google are investigating.
This was our response:
“Hi Chris. Sorry we didn’t get back to you we have been really busy recently. We don’t seem to have any record of you contacting us? We were away displaying at the NEC motorhome show a few weeks back possibly it was then you phoned? We pride ourself on good customer service as you can see by reading our other reviews.”

This was our response:
“Hi Chis, I can’t recall ever doing any work for you. If we did and you have an issue please don’t hesitate to contact me. We always stand by our no quibble 3 year warranty on all our work.
