Hey all, Well, the time has come to own up... I have sold Clara :( I'm still not sure it was the right thing to do but when someone comes along with a fat wad of cash it's hard to say no when it opens so many other doors. I'll still be lurking around on here and posting, just won't have my...

Hi everyone, I just thought I'd share this on here in case anyone was at a loose end this weekend and fancied meeting up with any like minded individuals for a bit of a tour, some food, tech talks and other stuff too. It should be really personal and the perfect antidote to the massive...

For sale is our early bay Westfalia in immaculate condition having been fully stripped back and restored by Johnson Autoworks. This is a heart wrenching sale but there is a move to Australia on the cards for my wife and I, therefore the sale is unfortunately necessary. History Originally...

The title says it all, the battery light is coming on and my bus is running rough when I slow down to idle. A quick press on the gas turns the light off and stops the stuttering so she hasn't stalled yet but it feels like she wants to. There's no issues with starting each time. Our battery is...

Hi, I'm trying to de-tech my life a bit so I'm getting rid of a few of the things I seem to spend too much time looking at. The first to go has to be the number one culprit - my iPad Mini 2 It's in space grey and in great condition as it's only a couple of months old. Its the most recent model...

Well the title says it all really. I'm looking at a camera but the seller wants only collection. I don't suppose anyone would be available to pick it up and post it on? Obviously I'll cover any costs. Cheers, Pete

Hi all, I'm getting a bike after a few years of just driving cars, and I've decided to get myself a Triumph Bonneville. The question I've got is, do those of you with bikes keep them outside? I've only ever kept mine in the garage but there's a bus in there now. Do I need to do anything...

I'm considering something a little fun in addition to the Bay, has anyone got any experience of these little beauties? http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Commer_FC_van_Bj_ca_1968_photo_2008.JPG#mediaviewer/File:Commer_FC_van_Bj_ca_1968_photo_2008.JPG" onclick="window.open(this.href);return...

Hi all, due to an unfortunate turn of events I am looking for funds and have one of Gadget's tow bars available to sell. It is brand new (never fitted, never even seen by me - still being made!) See this thread for more info...

Hi, As the title says really - is anyone going from Telford ish to near grantham? I have bought a trailer on eBay but my towbar won't be ready until the 29th and we're off on holiday the day after. I can have beer waiting! :msn4: Cheers, Pete

;) Not quite what you were thinking but last night I flashed a lorry in as it was overtaking and since then I can't flash my headlights or select main/dipped beam. Am I right in thinking it is the headlight relay under the dash that I need to replace or could it be something else? Cheers, Pete

Right, this is a bit of a strange one but you never know. One of the reasons I bought a bus was so that I could learn a bit about how to keep it on the road and look after it properly myself. Unfortunately we have started to use her regularly for weddings and I don't really want to take the...

I have been tasked with getting a few busses together for a lineup at Carfest South this year. It's from 22 - 25 August and is a great weekend away. The downside is that they want 7 buses and I've already got 3 early bays going and a T4 so ideally I'd love anyone with a T25 or splitty to join...

Anyone doing one? Here is mine and my friend's (his is the more creative one - mine is for PR!) [

Hi all! I have finally managed to find a 30 inch screen for my computer. Unfortunately it's in Bath and the guy has no box to post it in. I don't suppose anyone would be passing through and be able to brink it up to (or nearer to!) Nottingham? Naturally there's a six-pack in it for you! 8)...

Hi all, I have a couple of questions... 1st. Is this my M Plate? 2. If it is, what does it mean? I've tried using the M Plate decoder but it oesn't make much sense to me. Any tips? Pete

Hi all, I have bought my better half a scooter as a little surprise present. It is currently down in Colchester and I'd be grateful if anyone was going near there if they could pick it up? If it could get anywhere further north I'd really appreciate it nd naturally cross your palm with beer :P...

Hi all, I had an email out of the blue from Volksworld asking whether we'd be free to do a magazine photoshoot of Clara! :D Has anyone got any places they know of that would make an interesting location? We were planning on going away in her this weekend anyway, so can travel pretty much...

Hey all, Since the Lincoln meet is one of the most active on here, I was wondering whether anything has been sorted about going to the Van Jamboree in May? http://volkscene.co.uk" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; Pete
