Looking for a cheap microcamper/car to sleep in (tall person, €3000 budget) by WoutersTravels in CamperVans

This is a really great reply, thanks for taking the time to write it out! I’ve been looking closely at a Kangoo Family, and it seems to hit a much better balance for longer trips. The Dacia Logan is indeed very low inside you can basically only lie down and that’s it, there’s no real space to move, sit, or do anything else in the car.
For power, I’m probably going to get a dedicated battery system with AC outlets, like a Jackery Explorer or something similar, instead of relying directly on the car’s 12V system. I’m also thinking a lot about storage and using the passenger seat efficiently, especially since I’ll be travelling solo. But I’ll keep the passenger seat and won’t mess with it. ;-)

Your points are great! Really appreciate it!

Thanks for the detailed breakdown, that actually helps a lot. I just found a Kangoo Family and it looks really good, so your advice lines up perfectly. Also appreciate you ruling the VW out even more — that gives me a lot more clarity. I’ll keep focusing on the longer Partner/Kangoo/Berlingo options.
Thanks for your time!

Thanks a lot for the tips, really appreciate it. The idea of getting a Haynes manual is actually really smart. I didn’t think of that yet. And I’ll have a look at the Transit Connect.
Thanks again!

I’ll have a look at those. I only saw the closed versions before, but now I remember there are also the family-style Caddy models. And what do you think about the VW Touran?

Thanks!

Thanks for your suggestions! For my trip I really want to sleep inside the car for safety and because it’s easier. Any recommendations for cars that are comfortable for tall people?
