[Harlequin]

[Guest]

Numpties

are you replacing or repairing the interior?

 

[dubberatlast]

Nice bay good luck on the mot dude :wink:

 

[Scampi]

Welcome and good luck with getting your ticket sir :lol:

 

[numpties]

thanks for all the support + welcomes.

full original interior in good nick was thinking of just sanding down & varnishing woodwork. Buddy seat in need of some repair. Upholstery is at menders now - just repairing fabric part. keen to get it thro' mot and take it for a ride...

will need to replace canvas concertina but looks difficult and not cheap...for now duct tape will do :!:

:?: has anyone got any idea how to make up the low double bed. figured out how to do the single bunk with the buddy seat and thought that the table would shunt up against it with the 3 shorter legs?? but doesn't seem to fit right :!:

got mot wednesday last week - nowt was really wrong with it...went down to vanfest on friday..nearly 500 miles in total. This was after sitting on my next door neighbours drive for four years...

got there and back without any bother. we were all excited and enjoyed the weekend. 1st time at van fest...utterly amazed.

we were high just getting our 1st camper on the road and our first trip in her...but VF blew us away. :shock:

Thanks for all the northern support.

Nice bus dude. Van fest is the best show I was there and really enjoyed it too. I hope you and your family enjoy your new bus. I have 2 year old twins and they cant get enough of buses and beetles.

 

[Guest]

the bellows is in extremely good condition, hope next year will be the first of many VFs for me

 

[Chris]

Nothing beats the feeling of your first trouble free long trip in your (new) camper.
glad you enjoyed it
new cushions look great
