Great experience from start to finish

Just picked up our T6 SWB Olive and couldn't be happier with the finish, things were exactly as ordered and when we first came to see Mark and discuss our options he was incredibly helpful, meaning we got exactly what we wanted and within our budget. Picked up on time and can't wait to have our first trip away in her. We would definitely recommend Spartan for the customer experience from start to finish, especially with the 12 month warranty on everything.

chosing and buying from Spartan

After much searching we finally alighted on Spartan Campers for our major purchase and picked up our van, yet to be named, on November 4. A great experience. All people we dealt with were welcoming, knowledgeable and very patient with our endless questions. Our van is kitted out with quality equipment to a very high standard, a great internal design and the colour of the upholstery, for our Captains' seats is perfect. A lithium cell as standard is perfect and the way to go. I would highly recommend Spartan, a great Company to buy from. Looking forward to some serious adventures.

Got our dream campervan from Spartan…

Got our dream campervan from Spartan Campers. Excellent service throughout (but would have liked a photo or 2 through the process).
Mark was fab throughout and was always interested in our views.
A little hiccup on the way home having just picked it up to find the cab heater not working. Had to to put it in a garage, and warranty were brilliant in the reimbursement.
Tried our van (Miss Molly) and already looking forward for our next adventure.

A Spartan Adventure

What an experience!! And that's exactly what it was, an experience.
We walked into Spartan Campers, our van, now named Bessi was sitting awaiting our arrival, as was Mark. We didn't feel like strangers with Mark, the welcome was warm and friendly, like a mate you've not seen for years and just picked up from where you left off.  With that being said, Mark was highly professional throughout. After a cracking cup of coffee, we went out to have a look at our van. Mark spoke so passionately about their conversion. This is when we met Joe, the founder of Spartan Campers. His passion and excitement for what they do showne through as soon as we shook his hand. We were then given a tour of the workshop, shown the creation process from start to finish, a real labour of love!
All in all, Spartan Campers are a professional company with excellent customer service. I would highly recommend them to anyone looking to join the campervan world.

Love our van thanks Spartan …

On our first visit to Spartan campers we were showed around, met the team and were able to see the products used in their conversions.
We were so impressed by how friendly and helpful every member of the team were and that has been the case all the way through the possess.
We did visit other van converters but the quality and attention to detail at Spartans superseded the onces we visited.
The handover and after service have been equally excellent.
We apsolutly love love our van ❤️, we have had just one night in it so far and can't wait for spring so we can get out and about, living life and showing our beutiful van off.
I definataly would recommend Spartans, thank you to matk, Joe and the team,

Best experience ever.

What an amazing customer experience we had with Spartan campers. It was our first time purchasing a camper van and Spartan campers made it a wonderful one from start to finish. We are so happy with our camper we purchased, couldn’t have asked for anything more. Amazing firm with amazing people. Go buy your camper van from there you won’t regret it.

Spartan Campers ... ready for the next adventure

On our way back to Somerset with our new T6.1 LWB conversion. From first contact with Spartan Campers we have been nothing but impressed. A small team of engineers clearly delivering a product that they all know inside out and believe in. Today, has been handover day, our van ready for delivery and standing out proudly gleaming in the yard. The few minor snags we identified were rectified immediately without a quibble and by staff who were constantly engaging with us and the multiple other customers, most of who turned up on spec like we had a few weeks ago. If you're in the market for a van conversion, Spartan are a fantastic team.

A big thank you to everyone at Spartan…

A big thank you to everyone at Spartan for helping us to achieve our dream of owning an amazing top of the range VW Campervan conversion. To say we are happy is the understatement of the century. We have not stopped grinning since we picked up our new van just over two weeks ago!.
Our journey with Spartan began three months ago when we arranged an appointment with them to find out what they were all about. We'd seen some of the vans they had for sale on the website and were really keen to have a look and a chat with them to find out what options were available to us for our budget. We met Joe and Mark and they showed us the vans and explained how things worked. We were absolutely blown away with everything we saw and the passion and enthusiasm that Joe and Mark clearly have for the products that Spartan produce. So that was it we were sold - hook line and sinker!!
We decided there and then that the way to go for us was to let the guys find us a van to meet our requirements and to convert it for us within our budget.
We then had a few weeks to wait until they had carefully sourced us our van ready for conversion. In that time I can honestly say that we never stopped thinking and dreaming about all the adventures we were going to have!
Once our van had been purchased we went back to Spartan to spec our conversion and then five weeks later we returned again to pick it up as the finished campervan of our dreams! What can we say...we were completely blown away with the results! It's an absolute show stopper!
We have just returned from our first trip and we are still smiling from ear to ear.
Thanks a million times over to everyone at Spartan who helped our dream come true. Especially to Mark who was a continuous source of contact in those weeks when we were like two stupidly excited children waiting for Christmas Day 😂😂
Spartan you are A Star +++++ 😃
Thank you Karen, Phil and Maggie x

Great van, great service, can’t recommend enough

We visited Spartan just with the intention of looking at what was available and what we could afford. We came away with a deposit paid on an almost completed van. It was love at first sight!

We were blown away with the thoughtful design and excellent build quality, the van we were shown ticked all our boxes and more.

Everyone we met was very genuine, helpful and knowledgeable. It is obvious that the whole team have a real passion for, and pride in, what they do, which is design and build beautiful camper vans.

As new campers, we really appreciated the thorough handover. It’s good to know that we can contact the team for support and guidance in the future if we need it. The warranty gives peace of mind.

We never imagined we could afford a newly converted van, Spartan made it possible. Thank you Joe, Mark and team.

Love our campervan from spartan

Love our van from spartan. The whole process was seamless from initial contact to handover. Mark was first class and kept me informed with updates and photos of the build as we are in north east scotland. The handover was great also with plenty time taken to show us how everything worked and answered any questions. The camper van is stunning and high quailty finish and attention to detail. Thanks again mark and all the spartan team.

Fantastic from start to finish

Well, what can I say about Spartan Campers, other than fantastic, from our first contact all the way through handover this morning. The whole process has been excellent, brilliant communications, fantastic customer service, and a great understanding of what we wanted and how to provide it.

I had contacted a couple of other companies with a view to a custom build, having seen some of their vans advertised I decided to contact Mark and Joe at Spartan.

We had viewed a number of dealerships to see what we wanted, and filled in the form online. They came back to us almost immediately, we went through our requirements, and they said they could provide it within 8-10 weeks, we booked a build slot. However they came back to us a few hours later with a vehicle that was in production, different exterior colour to what we had originally considered however it was a two tone copper and white which was stunning.

We decided to go with it as it was the exact spec, and as it was pre production we were able to change a few times such as the upholstery colour, wheels and we added an additional side table as was long wheelbase and an Awning rail.

We were able to arrange a handover for just over 3 weeks from initial contact, with updates and constant communication throughout.

The van was perfect when we collected we had an over 2hour handover, went through the vehicle and everything and even got a tour of the facilities, near in everything is hand made and done on site, kitchens, paint shop etc.

I can't thank Mark and Joe enough, they are so passionate and dedicated and you can see that in their whole team with the quality of the end result.

Anyone even looking should get in touch with them, they are fantastic and highly recommend them to anyone.

Thanks again guys. Look forward to sharing our adventures with you and the team.

We love our van!

We absolutely love our van, which Spartan turned around in record time for us following the loss of our last van (built elsewhere ) in an accident. I’m still not well enough to go anywhere in it, but it’s drawing admiring glances from friends and neighbours and we’re desperate to try it out for real as it’s quite an upgrade on our previous van (all sorts of great features that I know will make a difference like the lithium battery, heater, inside water tank, swivel seat on rails and the large wardrobe) Spartan team were really communicative and helpful, and really open about their processes, showing us around the factory. Great experience. The warranty offers peace of mind too.

Awesome Campervan & Conversions

We went to look for campervans about 8 weeks ago and we decided to stay local in Coventry if we could and help our local businesses.

We saw our van when it wasn't completed and it wasn't the original one we wanted but we went back and saw the finished van and we decided that was the van that fitted the spec we wanted.

The spec on the conversions are absolutely 1st class. You couldn't ask for more, although Spartan kindly threw in our solar panel and Reimo rail too. All vans are absolutely top notch and the conversion includes a microwave too 👍

As for customer service, we couldn't ask for more from the minute we first visited to picking up our van yesterday.

Joe took the time to go through everything for our handover and if we had any questions then he was at hand to ask and responded quickly.

10/10 to Spartan Campers. If you're looking to buy a converted van or have one converted, then we can't recommend them enough.

Awesome van - would definitely recommend.

We ordered from Spartan and they sourced the van for us. We then chose the interior and all the extras (water tank and solar etc). The van is awesome and stunningly beautiful. Would definitely recommend Spartan to build and convert a van, the communication wasn’t as proactive as we hoped. Any new build niggles have been resolved quickly, efficiently and pragmatically. Their build design is the best we have seen in all our market research. Thank you Spartan.

One year on.

Thought I’d left a review when we bought our van, but can’t see it. We’ve had our van now for a year, sourced by Joe and custom built. Joe was the only one who actually listened to what we wanted and was able to make a slight tweak to the basic design that’s given us exactly what we wanted. Really good quality and very usable cupboard space. We’ve now had 10 weeks of holidays over the year and been really pleased. The solar panel failed when we were in Germany and Gabriel managed to get it swapped over without any quibble so we could take the grandchildren away and have a fridge for the week! They’ve grown considerably over the year and now have a big stock of vans on site. Thanks again JoeGabriel and the team.

Camper van of our dreams

So pleased with the amazing service we have received from Spartan Campers. We are first time campers and had no idea what we were doing and Joe and the team were so knowledgeable and have helped us to design the camper van of our dreams- it’s absolutely gorgeous. On collection, we were kindly greeted at the train station by Fraser who then drove us to their showroom and showed us how everything worked- he was really patient and and answered all of our questions and provided a great demonstration. We are thrilled with both the service and the camper van and would highly recommend.
