The vehicle is currently owned by Calum, who lives on the Isle of Raasay off the coast of Scotland. The island is only accessible by ferry, so all of the goods have to be brought in by boat. As a child, Calum used to watch the Suzukis unload the cargo from the ships and deliver it to the islanders. That's when he fell in love with these little vans and knew that one day he would own one himself.
When he was finally old enough to buy a Suzuki of his own, he immediately set out to find the perfect one. After an extensive search, he found this Super Carry in Glasgow, which was a five-hour journey from his house. He checked the van out, decided to buy it, and then he and his dad went back to trailer the Suzuki back to the island.
This Suzuki Super Carry has a registration as a motorhome with the government. Power comes from a 1.0-liter engine making around 40 horsepower (30 kilowatts). The power runs through a five-speed manual.
To make his car more efficient, Calum replaced the old stereo with a new Bluetooth-compatible one. In addition, he hooked up a Sony PSP for in-vehicle entertainment to pastime himself during long drives since 4G connections are poor quality in rural areas of Scotland. His dad wired and installed a leisure battery so that power would still be available even when they're not near an outlet or grid.
In the back, Calum replaced the original two-burner stove with a butane cooktop. It is more compact than the original setup. There's also a miniature sink. A closet gives enough space to store a backpack.
The van was used to go all around Scotland, and it worked well. Because the small size allowed him to avoid having to search for a specific campsite just for spending the night, he didn't have to. He even drove his sister to her wedding in the van.
