We took a trip out to Tiree in July taking in the Tiree Music Festival (TMF) and here's a few photos for you all out there in Earlybayland. For those of you who like music festivals of a smaller and more intimate nature then the TMF might be for you as no more than 1500 tickets are sold for the...

Now that summer is upon us and we'll all be living off-grid at various festivals and wild camping in the back of beyond has anyone in EB world got any first hand experience of portable solar chargers? Mainly for topping up smart phones and tablets - not necessarily for adding juice to the...

It's been a while since I last posted but I check in regularly to see what you lot have been up to. Here are some pics of a trip we made to Assynt over the Easter holidays. After getting the front suspension sorted (new KYB GR2 shocks, adding adjuster to lower beam and replacing the 185/65-15s...

Here's a link from the West of Scotland VW Club forum for some photos of the Biggar meet. Unfortunately I couldn't make it myself but it looks from the photos that there wasn't as much rain as there was in Newquay over the weekend. The more observant amongst you will spot the ex-Popcorn Balls...

OK, I know this is a perennial question but bear with me...My bus is moderately lowered and runs 185-65-15s both front and rear. I've experimented for the last year or so with a cheaper front shock option when I replaced the standard shocks with Cofap beetle rears. I also hammered up the lip...

Last weekend was our first bus outing this year. The bus had been laid up since the autumn but I had her plugged into a battery conditioner so the start up wasn't too much of a drama. Drove up the road to Oban on Friday afternoon to catch the Mull ferry and then headed out to the Ross of Mull...

Given up lurking :D . Firstly, thanks for a great site 8) - it's about time early bays got their own exclusive perving area. Here's some photos of my 71 bus. Bought her 4 years ago having previously owned a 73 westy which took us all over Europe. Judging from the paperwork she lived most of her...
