Sat in my van last week on a campsite in Cornwall, couple walked past and the guy commented wow that’s a nice van,I was a happy guy until his wife replied yes but it’s a bit bland. Then walked off back to there white colourful caravan .

You were supposed to invite them in, give them a tour and feed them!

He's always wanted one and she is yet to be convinced and they can't afford tickets for the NEC!

I find it is better to just laugh at them and try not to communicate, there's is a foreign tongue to non conformists like us.

What is even laughable is when you pitch up and because you have a continental van, your door is on the wrong side you spoil the nice neat rows!
 
I have had lots of comments that relate to the colour of my van. People say nice colour. I don't like to say I did not choose the colour I brought this one because it was cheaper than others available. When it is hot I wish I had a white van.

I look at other vans at campsites and am amassed how tidy people keep them, mine is always disorganised. When we take the caravan with us we get nice remarks about the caravan and the van. It is just a nice way to say hi to people and a change from "nice weather today"

Yes having the door on the other side can cause a problem sometimes but now we have a basecamp caravan as well we also have the problem of having a rear door.

Snap, we used to have a basecamp2 towed behind a beach, transport and accommodation for six.
Traded both in on the motorhome, door still on wrong side.
Apparently on some sites the basecamp and the beach had to be on separate pitches and pay twice!

Only 2 of us so sleep in the caravan and van is just a tow car. Some sites only like a caravan or a van to be habituation apparently it is due to fire brakes between where people sleep. I use the van as my normal transport and if I go to a site by myself. I notice you had Eribas , we had one for a long-time so the basecamp is still in a learning stage.
