VW Caddy Maxi

Why the VW Caddy?

We think the VW Caddy Maxi is one of the best small campervans out there. It’s the perfect choice if you’re looking for all the functionality of a larger campervan such as a VW Transporter, but ingeniously designed to fit within a much smaller space.

Our VW Caddy Maxi Camper conversion fits everything you need but in a micro camper, built in a van that drives as easily as a car. We are VW specialists – we’re confident we can make a conversion that suits all your needs. If you need help with where to start, read our guide to choosing a base van.

Love Campers has developed designs for both the VW Caddy, which is the short wheelbase VW Caddy, and the VW Caddy Maxi, which is the long wheelbase VW Caddy. 

Micro campervans such as the VW Caddy have many advantages over larger models, including:

  • They have lower running costs and often use petrol, making them suitable for ulez and low emission zones
  • They’re perfect for anyone who’s worried about driving a larger vehicle as they’re built on a VW Golf chassis and drive like a car
  • They’re easier to park compared with larger vans, and can often sit on a driveway or pavement in front of your home
  • They’re great for everyday use as well as travels off the beaten track, many people use them as their only vehicle

You can read even more benefits of micro campers in our blog.

Expert converters of the VW Caddy Maxi

We were the first conversion company to develop full conversions for the VW Caddy Maxi. We are experts and leaders in the field. Our VW Caddy Maxi conversions have been featured in multiple trade magazines and media, including Channel 5’s Million Pound Motorhome!

We’ve been working with these vehicles for over seven years. Our vans are made using lots of wood, crafted by skilled joiners. However, we’re also expert campervan builders, ensuring lightweight conversions that meet legal payload limits – all without sacrificing functionality.

Love Campers are microcamper specialists. Our vast experience means we can come up with some clever solutions to the wildest challenges. We’ve even completed the most elaborate and comprehensive conversion of the VW ID Buzz, a notoriously challenging model.

Quality, safety and sustainability is at the heart of everything we do. We’re proud to have gained both ISO 9001 and ISO 14001 accreditations from globally recognised certification body, NQA.

Our VW Caddy conversions span a diverse range of requirements and uses. You can have from two to four belted seats, and sleep from one to four people (or even five including a smaller child).

With the bed down, there is a fairly long load space so they can be used to transport longer items such as surfboards. And this is all within a campervan that drives like a VW Golf and has a footprint of less than five metres long!

Customised campervans built on proven designs

At Love Campers, we specialise in crafting top-quality campervan conversions built by hand in our workshop. We offer a comprehensive warranty, aftercare service, and access to our convenient “customer portal” for a seamless ownership experience.

We understand that everyone has unique needs. That’s why we offer a range of well-established campervan designs as a starting point. You can then personalise these designs to reflect your taste and travel style. We’ll work closely with you to choose the perfect colour scheme, fabrics, and wood finishes to create a campervan that feels like home on the road.

The beauty of our approach lies in the choices you get. Opt for a pre-configured campervan outfitted with some of our most popular extras, or customise your van to your exact requirements. You can select from a wide range of accessories, including a portable toilet, heating system, or an off-grid solar power system, to ensure a comfortable and convenient campervan experience.

We are on hand to advise you throughout the process, from helping you to choose the right base van through to well after you are off adventuring. Our camper vans come with a comprehensive 24 month European roadside assist warranty, as standard.  This can be upgraded to up to three years (36 months).

We provide hand-over guides and are always on hand to troubleshoot and advise after you drive the van away.
