Hi all
I have been reading this forum for a long time getting advice and tips before I purchased I campervan
Got it last week and am loving it already and I know it’s going to cost me a lot of cash for all the things I need and want

Great looking van. Are you planning on getting away over winter?

Hi
Thanks for that
I’m really happy with the van and more importantly the wife likes it too.
Plate was a bonus as came with it

Thanks
Hoping to get a few weekends away and introduce the grandkids to living outdoors as well

Great stuff. If you’ve got a diesel heater then you’ll be fine. We only fire ours up before we go to bed and get up and for overnight we are warm enough in our sleeping bag-even in NE Scotland in Feb.

The wife bit is so important! Hopefully she understands the needs of both you and the van! Is it set up as a camper? Kitchen furniture, bed, heater etc?

Yes came with a diesel heater , that was one of the things I was wanting as wanted to use it all year round.

Yes all set up as a camper with HiLo roof fitted and heater etc.

Hopefully that will happen as long as I’m home from my job.
Hoping to get along to few things this year starting with campermart in February which is local to me and I should be home in time for it.

Absolutely no excuse for not attending Camperjam '24 living where you do!

Tom was a little naughty using a black screwhead cap to make that U look like an O. Given the lack of cops around though, I think it unlikely you'll be pulled for it.

Already removed the black cover as Tom doesn’t mean anything to me and I’m bound to get pulled with my luck
Plate just came with van

Looking at the mods on the van already I’d be surprised if the previous owner wasn’t a forum member. Any idea of the history? Certainly looks like a nice well sorted van! What is in the list to do?

There must be something we can be a bit critical about?!! It just looks too perfect!!

No idea of previous owner as I purchased it through bodans
It came with full service history and recent cambelt and water pump replacement as well as new clutch.
On the to do list first is a stereo and speaker upgrade in the new year sometime probably, the halo 9 and also finish collecting all the equipment I need for weekends and weeks away.
Also looking at the stitches and Steele tarp or the kiravans rail sail.

I’m sure something will be wrong with it.
