I have squeezed mine into 650mm from the wall and 800mm long (25" x 32"). But I have a recess in the back wall where the Porta Potti can slide into the garage give more shower space. I also have a corner sink from CAK tanks (285mmx285mm Quadrant) and small unit on the front side 200mm 8" deep. It's tight but everything fits. Loose Porta Potti is better than a Thetford swivel casette in a very tight space.
If you have the space, 700mm x 900mm or 700mm x 1000mm is more practical.

Mines based around a Thetford shower tray with cut out for a swivel bowl toilet.Ive fitted a domestic Bristan shower with mixer valve,but not fitted a basin yet.Its lined with hard glaze board from Magnums to make it a wet room. The overall size is 1m x 650mm.

I could really do with an extra 100-200mm in length on my room. You can just about sit on the throne and close the door. If there's no-one else in the van it's easier with the door slightly open and there is a curtain which separates the lounge, so the kitchen/corridor can become part of the shower/dressing area if needed.
If I'd had a 5.7m long van that extra 300mm would have given me 100mm on the toilet and a 200mm wide wardrobe too - luxury!
As it was, neither the double bed at 1225mm or the lounge at 1100mm could afford to give any space to shower room so 800mm it was. That's compromise for you in a small van!

5.99 m would be luxury indeed ! Full wardrobe, decent shower, 1300 double bed, big lounge and oven could be fitted.
I converted a Luton in 1989-1992. It didn't do 95 mph or 36+mpg though ;D

I've touched 40 with economy driving on long runs. Amazing these common rail engines, even lugging 3.5 tonnes around.
