Not quite correct there as I have always held up the banner of sensibility whenever writing about any van that has a fully galvanised body, an in a similar vein I have alays complimented the Merc. Sprinter, Iveco Daily and indeed the RWD Transits when discussing their mechanical strengths...

The only problem with those vans is of course that they are RUST BUCKET Transits that personally I would avoid at all costs!!

I don't believe that such a layout would be possible in the normal Sevel/Master/Sprinter etc. type vans but it might just be so in XLWB IVECO vans and of course it would be very possible in the truly excellent Mercedes Vario's and then of course there are also all the library and bus options to...

When I installed the WAECO 12V fridge into 'Millie', I followed the WAECO supplied instructions and used 6mm cable. Phil

Way back in the mid 1970's, my boat was of a similar design but slightly shorter in length but slightly wider of beam with a displacement hull, as for the engine mine was an outboard but I went for a low revving but quite large capacity Tomos 4 stroke that always ran like a dream. When tides...

Hey Geoff you lucky old so and so that is one very nice looking craft..... Is it going to be fitted with an inboard outboard and if so hat power? And, as and when you get her into the water where will you be intending to use her? I, oh so greatly miss my boat that I used to keep down at...

You pay through the nose for specific Motorhome tyres, most especially those made by Michelin. They do claim that they have a greater resistance to UV rays that can knacker a tyre which is parked up for long periods of time, but trying to prove that would be nigh on impossible! Personally I...

Sorry Chris, but in my commercial past I had to do a very significant amount of both copy-writing and proof reading and so I have always been a person who notices both grammar and spelling even if my own diction and general phraseology is anywhere close to being perfect!! As a clue, my company...

Quite a lot of words such as specialise which is how it is correctly spelt in UK English whereas the darned dumb Yankies spell it specialize with a Z and the word spelt which is correct in UK English is marked as being incorrectly spelt ! It drives absolutely around the bloody bend Chris and I...

I have just endured the singularly most hellish day and I then tuned into the site and I thought it was fatigue causing my eyes to do strange things to me..................... But by eck, now that I realise it wasn't my knackered state of mind and you know what ................ I love the new...

Air can be a right royal 'B' to pump out .

Although the Shurflo pumps are powerful, a 1 mtr., your lift height might be your problem if there are any glitches or weaknesses in the rest of the system and the fact that there isn't uniformity of size in the rest of your pipework that could all add up to the kind of problems you are...

The problem could be being caused by an air bubble in the system if there are any high points along its route. I had exactly the same problem only recently with my kitchen sink whereas the shower taps were working perfectly. However going up and down to such a very significant extent with the...

I agree with Mr. Brown, the only problem with this kind of window being that the panel they are fitted into has to be flat.

Robert; looking through all the past MOT history for this van it doesn't show any data which would reflect the onset of the dreaded tin eating monster, so are you sure it needs welding? The windows and rooflight look as though they have been done properly. My big question would be with regards...

Always be wary of dodgy dealers............... Personally I wouldn't trust any car/caravan/motorhome/van breaker further than I could throw them!!

Robert you are in the driving seat so to speak! If you decide to upgrade the headlights that will be a far bigger job as you will have to engineer into the installation captive points which are adjustable which is of course doooooable but it would be a pain! As for the side lights and indicators...

Those were such low rent vehicles being manufactured by a company that was existing almost hand to mouth, as such, as sure as eggs is eggs the light units won't be individual to only this make and model. But if you can't find any it will be a very easy job to blank off the recessed light unit...

One of the very great inspirations of my build was the amazingly and generally mind boggling capabilities of Ian when he decided to take on the Deep Red build. I was so totally captivated by his capabilities that I printed off several hard copy paper copies of the build that I used during the...
