Any more pictures.

Going to do a post with lots of pics as it's a model I haven't seen on the forum, but that's for the weekend. Not as if I've got anything else to do

A new Funky Leisure DEBUS POLYCOTTON SUN CANOPY / AWNING - (cotton/canvas tent nostalgia!)
Just like the original coloured polyester ones but lovely poly cotton fabric. It is a sort of a natural, putty colour! Should be nice and cool in the hot weather.
The extending poles have been redesigned so now have a different locking device.
Looking forward to trying it out as and when.

A new edition to the car club, well not new I owned it 4 years ago and the guy I sold it too let it sit for the last 8 months with a knackered clutch so offered him £500 and took it off his hands. Baffles me why people let their cars get so bad the first pic is of when I owned it after spending a week detailing it after paying £8k for it and a quick 30 min wash last night and it’s 100 times better.

@Sabre Which model did you go for if you don't mind me asking?

 

[Big.mac]

Rear stripe to replace the one I fitted previously but made a hash of.
Some Logo projector lights to replace the ones I burned out.
Clear lacquer and some logos for the brake callipers, just waiting for the caliper paint to arrive now

 

[Martin Gibson]

Hello @Big.mac ,when i painted my calipers a while back with red caliper paint,when i sprayed the clear laquer on,it reacted badly causing the paint to bubble up. Luckily i had only done one of the removable covers so aborted that idea. The van was booked in to be ceramic coated so i left them and the detailer applied some ceramic to them. I could easily have done something wrong mind! Make sure to test on a cover or something small first,better safe than sorry.

Got my Duvalays washed and in the van!

Hi @Samalang I went for the Deci 165's but have now cancelled it as I can't find a mount and they wouldn't arrive until the end of the month... :-( bored NOW!
So looking at the Etons which are plug and play and have mounts. But there's a 3.1 version I wouldn't mind getting. Just awaiting any info from the smart cookies on here!

I was looking at those aswell, Amazon have them available, those Eaton's do look good though!

 

[Berto84]

Can recommend the Blam 200s from skipton car radio as a plug and play also. Massive improvement over stock vw speakers.

@skyliner put Eton's in and they did sound good but he's just sold them so not sure if that was an issue or a change in plan?
Probably the latter...

I'll see what I can find out then make a decision.

Looking good! Didn't see that colour when we got ours, would have gone well with our white van.

Tried ours for the first time last night and very warm and cosy!

I’ve not sold them yet. And it’s change of plan rather than an issue.
