Have you ever dreamed of owning a campervan but felt put off by the high prices? You’re not alone. The good news is that there are affordable entry points into the world of campervanning, and the conversions from JCT Cars are a perfect example. They offer a simple, budget-friendly way to get on the road.
🚗 What Makes It So Affordable and Practical?

JCT Cars specializes in converting small, car-like vehicles such as the Citroën Berlingo and Peugeot Partner. Many of these are ex-Motability passenger cars, which means they are well-maintained and come at a great price point. Because it’s based on a car, the vehicle is incredibly easy to drive daily and will slip under height barriers and into normal parking spaces with ease. It’s the perfect stealth camper that doesn’t scream ‘motorhome’.
🛠️ What’s the Conversion Like Inside?
Think of the JCT conversion as a classic VW camper interior, just scaled down to fit a smaller space. It includes a rear seat that folds flat to make a bed, a small galley with a two-burner hob and sink, and seating for four with travel belts. While the bed is cozy and storage is limited, it provides all the essentials for a solo adventurer or a couple on a weekend trip. It’s a low-cost option that opens up a world of freedom.
