The image above is the one I used to publicise the theft of my old van, just after returning from a camping trip to Machynlleth this time last year. I've just got back from this year's trip in the new van, pic below. Each van is different, this one makes more noise when driving, there's less...

Sorry Lee C that's insensitive, though I know it was not meant that way that's how it reads. I had my van nicked a year ago this week. I've just been back to the same campsite I last used my old van on. It's a great van, really good, but however good I still miss key things about the old one. I...

It's a long way for an evening meet but parking up on the harbour arm seems like a good idea to me... https://www.facebook.com/events/458366037507303/ The organisors are happy for anyone to turn up.

http://www.kentvwfestival.co.uk/ I'm away or would have probably gone to this show.

AS with others on here I got stung the first time I used it in the van which then also beacme the last. No good reason for paying that much. On the same journey I paid the usual £1.50 at Dartford. What's the differenec?

Am I missing something - the 20th of September is a Thursday! I'll be able to get along after work but how many people can take time off work?

Last year a guy selling an F reg deluxe had the van parked there. He seemed to have used them and trusted them. Again not much help! Good luck in your search, the right one will come along...

Not used them in years either. Got a bad reaction to my problems with damage to paintwork from their cover, left their forum and found earlybay. The rest is history! Sadly the guy I bought my van off was a JK fan so I'll be replacing much of their shoddy stuff over the coming months.

I'll see if I can find the old registration document, maybe you could take a pic of where the van used to live!

Welcome dude! I'm not far behind you at 57, I find the van keeps me young. Mine is a California bus as well, last owner was in Big Bear Lake so that's it's name! I've picked up some postcards and memorabilia and a super grizzly cuddly bear keeps the van company at all times from the dash...

Cheers dude! One of the most helpful thrads ever??? The latest offer from our mirror mate is... http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=330723781463

Just been down the garage and found my nice new mirror glass on the floor in pieces... clearly best not to use double sided pads! Live and learn...

I was lucky, I found a set of seats from a Subaru which someone had welded VW runners onto. They are superb, not too high and really really comfortable. No more shuffling round as I drive now!

I'd had my old van for almost seven years bbefore I realised what this was - had to be told by Harlequin. You may have more luck by descrining it as the useless rack on which your grill goes! Luckily my new van has the rack, and I know what it does!

No way! They are welcome on here and I've been made welcome there for the firetec group buy but otherwise am happy with things as they are. Anyway they are just a pale immitation of us in every way, vans, website etc etc! And they have nearly £200 a year less than us!

Keep asking! As I said to another guy who dropped by for a chat and who has taken a look at earlybay (if you read this get signed up and posting ahead of buying a van dude!) you'll find nothing but helpful people on this forum.

I drove down to the Herne Bay classic car show yesterday, first trip with the new mirror glass. The difference it made was incredible and even if just stuck on with double sided pads as mine is I can thoroughly recommend them to all lhd drivers.

Good to meet up with you today, hopefully you'll bump into Marcher round town and also Baldrick who is not far away in the Medway area. Good luck with your resto!

Van packed, tea, coffee and mugs so just milk needed. I keep remembering things which I had in the old van, latest being the umbrella which is beside the single seat if the thieving so and so has not moved it or sold it more likely. Still angry!
