  3. Anything taken?

    On the upside, they are an easy screw in replacement.

  4. I think they made away with £1.30 in change.

  6. I originally thought that it was like a bay and going to be a real
    Hassle and caused me to swear really quite a lot…..but then I spotted the hex bolts holding the glass in.

  8. Well just under 4 years of owning the syncro, we finally went camping in it!!!- ‘cos I couldn’t fix the bay in time.

    Was it equal to the Bay? Have you just got a bed in it, or is it a full camper?

  11. It’s got a Westfalia interior - with loads of cunning storage cupboards…fridge, cooker but ….

    May well have dropped a ball as it turns out.

    Caroline is now campaigning to sell the bay and use this as it is admittedly, just a much better camper!

    Oops! :) . I like the extra width of the T25, they just seem more roomy.

  14. The problem is that she has said we can sell the orange van and put the money towards getting the loft done…..

    My viewpoint is that any money in the orange van is firmly in the ‘fun’ category. Loft conversion is not ‘fun’

    A power boat or sailing boat is ‘fun’. As is a motorbike, beach buggy/Trekker/Citroen Mehari or quitting jobs for 3 months and living at the beach in a sunny, sunny place….

  17. This is broken…..

    It leaks and makes a very disconcerting puddle of water on the floor.

    it has been leaking for a while but by ignoring it long enough the subsequent torrent of water from it yesterday confirmed my diagnosis that it is broken…..I am the king of reactive maintenance….

  18. No point jumping the gun and changing it as soon as you find an issue, you have to let it develop, to be really sure of the issue

  19. Yes, it is best to wait for catastrophic failure of a component.
