From Module 2.3: Setting a Realistic Budget
“As a general rule of thumb, it's common to spend roughly half the amount on your conversion as you did on the van itself. If you buy a van for €15,000, expect to spend €7500 on your conversion, depending on the finish and appliances. Always factor in extra for things like tools, mistakes, or upgrades.”
