Requirements camper van

A camper van has to meet the following requirements:

• The interior must be able to hold an oblong block of at least 170 cm in height over a length of at least 200 cm and a width of at least 90 cm.
• The interior is the space behind the driver's and passenger seats, in which the facilities should be fitted.
• The interior must contain:
  • at least 2 fixed seats
  • a table
    The table, or its mounting, may be designed in such a fashion as to allow the table to be removed simply.
  • beds for at least 2 persons
    These beds may be created using the seats, but not using the driver's and passenger seats.
  • fixed and lockable storage facilities
  • a fixed kitchen unit with a work surface that is at least 60 cm high, equipped with built-in (removable) water facilities with a sink, a tap and a drain. The facility as a whole must be intended for use inside the vehicle's interior.
  • a fixed built-in cooking unit intended for use inside the vehicle's interior

Non-standard height

Is the standard production height of the interior not 170 cm, but at least 130 cm? Then you may raise the interior to at least 170 cm over a length of at least 100 cm and a width of at least 90 cm. This may be done using a fixed raised roof or a pop-up roof. This only applies if the camper van also meets the other design requirements.
