    One of the most popular converted vans is the VW Transporter.
    They'll be everything for high end commercially converted campers and motorhomes to Bob's builders van with a mattress in the back and a don't knock if this van is rocking sticker.

    I'm not says buy one, but it's worth looking around for something similar that would suit your needs and transferring that to a suitable van of your own choice.

    It's not hard to lag and line a van or expensive.
    Lots of vans run roof mounted ventilators or pop up caravan skylights are cheap and easy enough.

    Maybe even start with a crew bus, they usually have a couple of side windows, mid ship that are either tinted or can be tinted.

    I knew someone that converted a LWB, high roof Renault Master.
    It was quite clever. The living part was in the middle and the sofa part opened out into a double bed, but from the back of the forward facing sofa they had created a bunk up top that stretched to the rear for a couple of teenagers.
    Under the bunk was a "garage" big enough to store a couple of Trials bikes in length ways and all the muddy kit.
