ABOUT US
The Past
VisionTech Automotive was born from foundations as early as 2000 where Dan worked as a car technician for Honda both in the UK and abroad.
Dan went on to a specialist division of a UK Car Dealership network where he gained various skills in custom audio and Multi Media installations, working on, modifying and converting new Range Rovers, Mercedes and BMW’s.
Initially VisionTech Automotive specialised in Vehicle installations of Audio Visual Systems and vehicle interior trimming and modifications, and soon built a strong network of Mercedes and Range Rover Dealership customers in the South of England.
In 2009 VisionTech Automotive debuted the first Demo van at the VolksWorld Show at Sandown Park. The aftermath of which led to many customers placing orders for the team to convert their pride and joys.
The company has grown from strength to strength not just moving with the times but ensuring they are ahead with innovative builds and utilising the most up to date technology and materials available, more often than not before anybody else.
Over the past five years Dan has focused very much on product quality. Two main focuses have been our GRP, light weight pods, our electric M1 pull tested Rock n Roll Bed and Battery Monitoring systems.
Dan has always been a VW enthusiast, and has owned T5’s since they first made an appearance in the UK in 2003.
He had a long passion for his a 1957 Beetle ‘Polly’ from his early 20’s. Polly made her first appearance down the drag strip in 2018 after having a Porsche engine & air ride fitted. She currently sits with pride in our new showroom.
The Present
The team continue to invest into the design & productivity of our bespoke conversions. We believe the construction, design & layout of our conversions offer more storage space and are up to 75% lighter than a typical conversion. This greatly improves both drivability and fuel consumption, all helping to reduce our carbon footprint.
We have also taken pride in our electric Rock ‘n’ Roll bed which are “In chassis” M1 pull tested, easy to use, efficient and a comfortable way to spend many a nights in your camper. At the click of a button your rear seat forms a perfect bed, no fuss required. After a lot of investment and engineering, we now have a world leading product to be proud of. It is also designed to work in conjunction with the “Horizon” Elevating Roof System with a lower seating position than any other Bed. Allowing Maximum headroom in the vehicle, with the roof closed.
Our Lithium Battery Systems, are also constructed “in house” and when coupled with our Solar Systems, almost eliminate the need to hook vans up to 240v when camping.
As part of our investment into an ever evolving industry we our proud to have recently invested in our own in house 3d printing farm where we design and produce our own unique patent-pending products including the e-Grille.
The Future
We always working on various new projects, either for our own in house builds or working closely with other companies like Transport HQ’s Tesla powered T6.1
We highly recommend you keep an eye on our Social media platforms for updates on these projects, some of which can end up in our store for self-build customers.
