The VH-PMV. A VW Transporter T7 conversion hand-built in Dorset, finished to a standard most won't attempt, and customised around the life you actually live.
Every VH-PMV carries the assurances that matter. From the day you order to the years that follow.
Official. Documented. On record. Every build meets converter standards, not because it is the minimum, but because that is what building properly looks like.
Your manufacturer warranty stays intact. Every conversion is engineered to preserve it. No compromise. No small print.
Business or personal. VAT-recoverable, capital allowance eligible, and structured to make financial sense. Flexible options built around your budget, not ours.
Wherever you are, your VH-PMV arrives fully prepared. No halfway handovers. No collecting from somewhere inconvenient.
You leave knowing every switch, system and setting. Not a rushed walkthrough. A proper handover from someone who built the thing.
The relationship does not end when you drive away. Questions, servicing, support. We stay on hand because that is how this works.
Every image on this page is a genuine VH-PMV conversion, photographed from the workshop floor. No renders. No studio tricks. No borrowed stock images.
From real owners. Unedited. Independently verified. Read them and decide for yourself.
Step inside a VH-PMV and something changes. The weight
of the door. The feel of the trim. The smell of real
materials. The way nothing rattles, flexes, or
apologises for itself.
That is not luck. That is what happens when you refuse
to work to a budget instead of a standard.
Most converters cut corners you will not notice until
eighteen months in. We built Van Haven to close that
gap. Permanently.
Off-the-shelf panels. Standard fittings. Materials that look fine until you touch them. Built to a price. Not to last.
Highest-grade materials, hand-finished by specialists who have been doing this for decades. Every panel. Every stitch. Every system. Built to impress on the day and to hold up every day after.
The difference is felt, not explained. Every owner knows it. Every passenger notices it. The work shows without you having to say a word.
Every VH-PMV is considered from every angle. Every body line deliberate. Every stance earned. This is not a van with accessories bolted on. It is a vehicle built with intention.
Front splitters, side skirts, rear diffusers. Integrated properly, not fitted as an afterthought. Because the difference between a van that looks the part and one that just wears the badge is in the details you cannot fake.
Air ride and coilover options, set up right. Big brake kit upgrades for serious stopping. Premium wheel packages. Stance with substance behind it.
Every panel colour-matched. Bumpers, mirrors, handles, optics, inside and out. Colour PPF protects the finish and gives you the option to stand out properly without paying for it twice.
DRLs, rear clusters, ambient integration. Every light considered. Nothing just plugged in and pointed outwards.
Most people expect more from a fitted kitchen than a van interior. We think that is backwards. The VH-PMV interior is designed, engineered, and hand-finished to a level that changes what you expect from now on.
Your choice of premium hides. Colour-matched. Hand-stitched where it matters. Looks right pulling up at the office. Feels even better when you are parked up somewhere the week cannot reach you.
ISOFIX compatible. Heated. Fully adjustable. Client meeting Friday morning. Family loaded up by Friday afternoon. No compromise between the two.
Diesel park heater for cold mornings and winter overnights. Premium audio that earns its space. Whether you are moving or parked, the cabin works.
Passenger-configurable zoned lighting, independently set. The light in a room changes how you feel in it. Same principle. Better vehicle.
62mm. Three stages. Hand-fitted
throughout.
2mm Dodomat kills the vibration at the
panel before it becomes road noise.
10mm Thermo Liner acts as the thermal
break and secondary acoustic buffer.
50mm Thermo Fleece holds the temperature
wherever you put it - January trailhead
or August motorway.
Slide the door shut. The outside stays
outside.
Every VH-PMV passes through specialists who have spent
decades learning how to do this right. Not faster.
Right.
The detail work is not decoration. The carbon fibre
aero, the wheel finish, the mirror caps, the headlight
integration - it is the difference between a vehicle
that looks good on collection day and one that still
holds together five years in.
That is what 120 hours per build actually means.
Studio-shot and stripped back, this is the VH-PMV with nothing to hide. Carbon fibre aero, bronze wheels, and a deep metallic finish protected by colour PPF to safeguard the paint and let you choose a standout colour.
The VH-PMV is not a lifestyle purchase. It is a properly considered asset. VAT-recoverable, capital allowance eligible, dual-use, and built to hold its value. Here is what sits beneath the finish.
Items marked with an asterisk are optional extras. Final specification confirmed at order.
VAT-registered? Reclaim VAT on the full conversion cost. A legitimate advantage worth thousands. Not a workaround. Standard tax treatment, applied correctly.
Claim Annual Investment Allowance on the vehicle and the conversion in year one. Reduce your taxable profit. Talk to your accountant. The numbers hold up.
Monday to Friday it works. Saturday it escapes. One asset. Two lives. Both on the books.
VH-PMV builds are known. Sought after. Residual values stay strong because the quality behind them is real. Ask any owner who has tried to sell one.
"After many years of dreaming of owning a super cool van it has finally happened & I can't recommend Van Haven enough! We were recommended through friends and we were not disappointed. From our first meeting with Olly in sales it was clear the company gave the customers interests at heart."
"Picked up my van on Saturday and I wasn't disappointed! Everything was done to a very high standard and had the little finishing details to make the van yours. Olly and Toby were great with everything from start to finish. I would tell anyone who is buying a van to pop and see them guys first."
"They are incredibly customer focused. I picked up my van yesterday and it's beautiful! Doing business with Toby was very straightforward. The sale process was handled with me, the customer, in mind. It was all about me and what I needed rather than what they had on the forecourt to sell."
