RENAULT MASTER
// The Efficient Fleet Favourite.
Foundation Analysis
The Renault Master (also sold as the Nissan Interstar and older Vauxhall Movano) is a staple of UK delivery fleets. While it lacks the premium feel of the German vans or the extreme width of the Sevel chassis, its lightweight construction and efficient engines make it a practical, budget-friendly foundation for simpler builds.

What It Will Fit
Bed Layouts
Longitudinal Only: The narrow body requires a lengthwise bed unless you install side flares/pods.
Wet Room Potential
High Potential: The LWB variants offer enough floor length for a dedicated shower and toilet unit without sacrificing the kitchen.
Garage Space
Typical high-roof builds allow for a 900mm–1100mm high garage space below a fixed bed, ideal for ebikes and technical systems.
THE VERDICT
Best For
Budget-conscious builders looking for a newer van with lower running costs.
