 We also have been isolating the cabin and added a sofa-bed, a diesel heating system, a second battery and a fridge. The mechanical improvements were done by [[https://www.autofernandez.es/|Autofernández Vilafranca]] and the comfort modifications were made by [[https://bivaccamper.com/|Bivac Camper]]. We also have been isolating the cabin and added a sofa-bed, a diesel heating system, a second battery and a fridge.
