Bush Tea... Nearly spat mah coffee out, lol... Ah mind in Egypt a good few years ago midday the hosts would serve a hot mint tea, seemed mad to me coz a) ah dinny drink tea and b) its hot n the last thing ah need is a hot drink... ...... But to be honest, it was nice... Different, but...

Duckato, two sorted cars then... See you out there, cheers...

Mercedes parts are sometimes cheaper than patern from FleaBay, ah always check there first... Dont get me wrong, some things are eye wateringly more expensive but ah always check...

We have a small double in the Sprinter, longways, its 6x4 so works width wise with cupboard space to one side. Its bigger than you think when your on it.

Which one? (MG fan, had a TF fully prepared by Dreadnought, 302mm AP racing callipers, the 911's looked like they went into reverse gear going into the hairpin at Knockhill.... ...... Then they razzed me going up the hill but hey, it was an MG TF, its expected...) Sorry, thread unrelated...

Had a few times with the Sprinter but each time cleaning the contacts and ball n sockets (shed load of debris on the bottom where the runner lives) etc, n touch wood it keeps working... Ok, different van but some things to look at... Chers...

My honest as ahv got a LWB HT 2013, not the EHT fiberglass so not 100% comparison. Almost indestructable, even when its been sick it still got us there and you can get parts anywhere. On the Euro compliance, we have a problem with the business vans now Glasgow has a zone so it all depends...

I have the Fiamma F45 but dont have the leg holders on the van yet... Ahm just too nervous about the awning, ah mean we have the awning with privacy room, ah brace the legs with 2x2 (a gypsy trick ah saw in Germany) side beams, rafter brace, the works and use some quite mental ground anchors...

Ah leave mine off but do think its a pain in the arse on off on off... Ah didnt realise folks just left it on...

If it were my money, no. TBH, ah think the build as is would have to go, dont look up to much...

No expert but mind, its 2007 so money should be small to begin with (holly cow... Just did a quick web search and the money for a 2007 is mental !!!)... Dunno what your paying but a lowish price on my quick search shows four and a half grand (no sayin theres no cheaper), christ, ah got a 2013...

Ahhhhhh ha ha ha ha ha ha.....

WOW !!! That is on the build list for my Lottery Camper... For now though, four grand to burn a turd.... ....... Thats mental...

Ah use Pu sealant 40 from Toolstation for near everything, Pu is the stuff windscreens and side windows are bonded with as far as ahm aware... Anyway, the shower in the van ah know didnt leak as ahm redoing the bathroom the now and all was dry... Off topic, 2nd incarnation ah clad it with...

Nabsim, ah'v the garage but have the bed over it so its height limited, think the only option is on the bulkhead for the bed just inside the back door but thats a vent issue. More thinking juice needed... Cheers...

Ok, so I like the idea of on demand hot water but seeing that the whole ethos of the van is self sufficiency electricity is out, I mean we have a 270AH with solar but its not shore power so we have gas onboard. With that, I done a little research on those "camping" showers that are all over the...

Ah... Much different to my build then... We used to have trouble with the compressor (its got a big startup capacitor, think thats what ahv heard) but we upgraded the inverter and that trouble went away... Cheers...

Thinking about it the wrong way mate... Ah mean, why turn 12v into 240 volts to power lots of 5-12 volt things... Ok, cooker and a handful of other things aside but theres code for it, its allowed... Think of it as a big van and we run everything off 1 panel and a 270ah battery for 3 days at...
