Adventure campervans, built in West Sussex.

Onyx Vans is a small specialist manufacturer. We design and build a range of adventure campervans on the MAN TGE platform, in our own workshop, to a standard built to last.

What we do

Every van designed and built under one roof

We build complete adventure campervans on the MAN TGE platform — designed as whole vehicles, engineered around systems that hold up, and finished to a standard you can see and feel.

Everything happens in our West Sussex workshop: the design, the in-house fabrication, the electrical systems, the fit-out, and the final checks. Every van is built to order.

Why Onyx

Built to the highest standard by the people who designed it.

01

Designed and built by the same hands

We design your van, build it, and answer your questions for years afterwards. That continuity is the whole point.

02

High spec systems

Victron electrical and Truma diesel heating, specified because they hold up in the conditions that test equipment properly — the same components used in marine and off-grid home installations.

03

The MAN TGE platform

We build exclusively on the MAN TGE: great to drive, and supported by MAN’s commercial dealer network across the UK and Europe.

04

Made to order in West Sussex

Every van is built to order in our own workshop, on a four to six month lead time.

From an owner
“Adventure is an understatement — the Summit goes where other vans (and cars) wouldn’t, which gives you great options.”
— Michael L, Summit owner

Our story

Built by people who actually use them.

Onyx began with a van Chris and Heather built on the driveway during lockdown. It had to be sold to fund an engagement ring — but it started something, and we began building vans for other people. Now we build the vans we’d want to travel in ourselves.

Get in touch

Start with a conversation.

A discovery call is a relaxed 30 minutes to talk through how you travel and which van fits — an honest conversation with the people who’ll build it. We typically have a four to six month lead time, so the sooner you’re in the diary, the better.
