Will do thanks @Chippie1 Get yourself on 'Team Ascot Grey' on here with a pic or two and please help us find a way of decorating the outside of the van! I mean it looks classy enough as it is but it would be lovely to find a suitable wallpaper that works!

@AJCConversions - more money coming my way for the undecided 2025 Christmas upgrades?
 
Another day ....another beach :cool:
Following a mad 24hrs of ridiculous wind we recently had in Peniscola (spain) where we were quite literally sand blasted and virtually confined to being inside the van for a whole day (and night)
We've moved just a hop further south to a little place called Alcossebre for a couple of days.

You'd not as far south as I thought you'd be for this time of year, although I'm guessing the extra days drive to the south of Spain isn't worth it for the few extra degrees you get? Or are you working your way down that way based on the weather?
 
A quick jolly to "Van Furniture" this morning (circa 250mile round trip)on the new wheels. Looks like I've been rallying, This is a bad thing because walking back to the van at Costco Thurrock this morning I couldn't help smiling and thinking..... I now need a snorkel to add to "The Look" :rolleyes:

Lean into the 'swamper' look, you know you want to... :p

I won't do things that cut into the van, being a Caravelle and wanting to keep it as original as possible, but if I had a panel van/kombi I'd go full on.

Still, wheel arch trims, Lazer lights/light bar, rear ladder are probably all in my future!

I'm all over that look, dont you worry, I venture out with a KTM Enduro, E-bike (sorry if you are a purist, but honestly love my E-bike, you need to have a go on one if you haven't #totalgamechanger), and also various slipways / beaches.
So as much as its a look the 4motion, diff lock and headlights were "must haves" when I bought the van.

Things that are on the list for me are: arch covers, side bars, replacement rear bumper protector (its currently stainless) and bull bars! looking at it today i think a snorkel and maybe a lightbar up top a bit like Aidan @UAO

Must finish interior first!!

Anyone know someone that can make me a really nice scribed slide out bed (NS - needs to be reasonably easily removable too - and yes i want it all:p)

Is that an electric enduro MX/motorbike, or an enduro EMTB?

I've ridden various motorbikes over the years (didn't get into off road though) and currently ride mountain bikes and will be looking at getting an eMTB this year.

Fire breathing GSX-R
KTM 520SX
and I got a CUBE Action Team EMTB a couple of years ago, genuinely epic bit of kit, toying with the Idea of selling it and getting the DJI Amflow

Nice! There's a couple of threads in the pub section for motorbikes and mountain bikes!

I've had a few motorbikes, most recently an Aprillia Tuono 1000 v-twin. I don't ride any more though.

Currently have 2x mountain bikes, one a big long travel enduro, the other a hardtail. Trying to sell the hardtail at the moment to fund (part of) a lightweight emtb purchase!

I've just bought a lightweight emtb for the wife after she borrowed our friend's Orbea M20 Rise over New Year. Ended up with a Giant Trance X Advanced e+ elite 2. Just built it up today and it's a stunning piece of kit. I'll be the one at the back now, slogging up the hills on my old hardtail.
