    Gas bottle in engine bay

    Is it a completely mad idea to mount the gas bottle for the propex heater in the left hand cavity of the engine bay? Would save me bags of room under the seat as I've only got 3/4 rock and roll. Worried this might be a fire risk though. Any one do this? Thanks

    Wheel clamps - vehicle security

    I'm looking for a good wheel clamp for our van. We have the dome hub caps and many I've seen don't look like they'd attach well. Which one do you use? I want something to deter the van being towed away by a rogue! Any other vehicle security tips welcome. Thanks in advance

    Drum Brakes - value?

    Hi, We've got a 1970 VW Dormobile Conversion with drum brakes all round and a 1600 engine. A recent trip around the Yorkshire Dales confirmed to us finally that we want to look into upgrading the engine power. Obviously this would mean replacing the drum brakes for discs. However, with one eye...
