Those white things are contrails? (I’m just jealous!)

There's a table there, Dickie, that hasn't got loads of food on it, let alone a kebab. Are you a changed man?
Took a drive down to Weston Super Mare today for a walk along the beach and bike ride in the sunshine. Surprisingly little VW action in general but when we got back from the ride, this T4 had appeared and was getting a little TLC from The AA. We're the blue one that's not a Ford.
What wheels you got on there? looking great!! Are they Bfg's too?
They are KMC Holeshot wheels with BFGoodrich T/A KO2 245/65R17 11S
The tyres are great but I can’t necessarily recommend the wheels. They function perfectly well but are corroding at the interface of the stainless steel bolts and alloy thread.
Yeah, I heard about Kmc wheels rusting, I might go for some black rhinos. Are they 17's or 18's? Your van looks lowered, is that just because of the big tyres?
Pitched up at Sennen cove, pissing down but at least its not blowing a gale.

That's the on beach parking at the end of Marine Parade I think? Might have to give it a try!
@kg1709. Spot on. As you might expect with the weather that we had, it was quite busy in Weston yesterday but the beach car park (I think they call it 'Beach South') only had about 15-20 vehicles parked across quite a large area. The sand is plenty firm enough, even fo a T6 to drive on and it's a hell of a lot easier than trying to squeeze into one of the slots along the parade, especially when you're using a bike rack - £6 for 4 hours, card payments only.
It’s still on standard suspension. 4Motions all look a bit saggy at the back end. I’m planning a suspension lift as I keep smashing up the plastics underneath. These are 17s they are the smallest wheels that will fit over the front brake callipers. The aim was more rubber, not more wheel for me. Black Rhino wheels would be a good option. Wolfrace are making some good wheels too.
Mull of Galloway lighthouse last weekend, Saturday was stunning blue skies and overnight it got a bit wild with the wind and was overcast the next morning:
Got some time on the beach with my little man when the sun started to break through.
WSM belongs in the “Shy toll” thread.
If you want beach down that way you’re better off going to Brean, not brilliant but a lot better than WSM.
Love it! That’s the way to do it! I bet you got some envious looks!!!
Bala for the weekend
Is that Mr @VanDamMan on the right there?
