Yes it certainly is buddy , I have to say he has exceeded my expectations as the job is superb , I hope the roof turns out to be better than some on here but all I can say is if I do experience any problems it won’t be down to poor fitting so I will have to wait and see , and fingers crossed

Yes I've been there a couple of times. He seemed genuinely surprised when I spoke about HiLo problems. Told me he had never had one leak and I believe he was being honest.
Hope yours all goes well. I still like the HiLo and would go there to get it fitted, but the reports of their after sales attitude is putting me off, as I'm having a shocking time with the after sales of another well known company who are ignoring all my attempts to contact them over a problem.
 
I’ve just had a HiLo roof fitted. I had one in my last van as well. No problems at all. The issues were really with the cheaper surf version which you can’t get anymore. The Sport is fine.
 
I've never liked the look of Pop Top Roofs until I just checked out HiLo Sport roof. Due to the fact they ruin, in my opinion of course, the lines of the vehicle. A bit like I think the rear spoiler does now I have roof rails and bars fitted. I could be swayed by these poptops though. Very neat solution indeed. Van looks great, love the colour.

Looks like Jaibow to me. I was going to get him to put a HiLo roof in mine but changed my mind about HiLo after reading lots on here.

aaaah damn it, as Mr Skyliner said, i'd kinda changed me mind and gone off the HiLo but here you are, with your fancy (ace) looking van making me doubt that decision again!! :unsure:
 
Lee hoops, that looks amazing you must be well chuffed, still love that colour.
I have a Hilo roof, I love it 4000 miles this summer around Europe, only problem is its black so it gets really warm, around 25 other nights sleeping in it, but I am not sure I would have a surf. I have said it before, Jaibow is definitely dedicated to his customers and I am so glad he built our van, I have so much trust in him.

Thanks @Critch , I am very pleased with the outcome and Jason really does want to make a perfect job ! And it shows in the finish of his work , I really can’t sing his praises enough :) is it a black roof you have or just a black canvas ? I nearly had a black roof but decided on color coded in the end :thumbsup:

Is he moving premises?

Yes he’s moved to a bigger spot not too far away as the old premises was just too small , it’s a lot better ! He is also keeping the old spot on so as to promote the business as the new spot is off the beaten track ,
Jason’s long term plan will be to hire out campers from the original premises

So the fronts are 8.5 inch et 35 and the rears are 10 inch et 40 and the tyres are 265/40/20 ... it was the staggered look I was after but didn’t want to have rubbing on the arches etc and while looking at brands of wheels I liked I found not all do this offset as I originally wanted the Judd t311r !

Hi pal, could you not get this in the Judd T311r? I'm having the same dilemma having a T32. Do you have some closer pics of the poke of the wheels and tyres?
