I saw this curious Mercedes box van 'conversion' for sale on eBay and just had to share it. I wonder who, if anyone, would bid for this.
There is no entry from the cab to the living space and looking at the images, a four-step staircase is necessary to get into the back. This clearly won't fit in the cab with the driver, so I guess you have to try and open the back door (somehow) and drag the steps out before climbing up in.

The bed looks about the right size for a ten year old, unless the scale of the image is wrong. The furniture seems to be a mixture of home-made out of timber and reused domestic cabinets - and some things that are a combination of both.
The back door wouldn't look out of place on a terraced house, but looks incredibly out of place on the back of a box van. However, it fits very well with the wood framed windows, which look like they might have been pulled out of a skip.
The full-size sink and drainer could come in handy, as does the four-ring gas hob, but both look rather out of place in the back of a wagon.
Overall this 'camper' looks very spacious and comfortable, but the back door and windows look ridiculously out of place. While these could potentially be replaced with something more in keeping, the height of the rear door is not something that could easily be changed, so for me this would be unusable.
