Vans Overview
Marty, a renowned van designer based in Mérignac, Gironde, is making waves in the European campervan scene with their latest creation—a luxurious 5-seater campervan featuring a horizontal pop-up roof. This innovative design is set to be displayed at the upcoming Vanlife Expo in Bordeaux on November 14 and 15, 2026, attracting attention from van enthusiasts across the continent. Marty is celebrated for their bespoke, high-end campervans that are packed with features designed for comfort and functionality, making them a top choice for those looking to travel in style.
The Marty campervan is not only designed for family outings but also caters to the needs of those who wish to explore Europe without sacrificing comfort. The horizontal pop-up roof allows for an expanded living space, making it ideal for both short trips and extended adventures.

Why This Matters for UK Vanlifers: The introduction of Marty's innovative designs into the UK market marks an exciting development for van enthusiasts looking for luxury and functionality. Given the current exchange rates, a comparable high-end campervan in the UK would typically range from £45,000 to £60,000, depending on specs and features. Marty's models, while left-hand-drive, offer unique customisation options that can set them apart in the competitive UK market. For UK buyers considering a purchase, it's essential to evaluate the conversion costs associated with transitioning to right-hand drive and ensure compatibility with UK regulations. This growing trend towards bespoke, high-end builds reflects a shift in the UK vanlife scene, where quality and comfort are increasingly becoming paramount.
