Thanks.

It's an Avtex STH1000 12v DC suction mounted aerial- £33. Needs power but is defo worth it. Picture quality is brilliant and no interference.

Re: Tank range? Diesel.

The low fuel light came in at 1998 or so, S reg late old-shape and all new-shape. Ours easily does 600km on a tank on a run, I think about 630 was the best we ever dared. But you do have a self-priming fuel system so you can just stick more in if you run out, takes a good few seconds cranking to ge...

Funking up the Dash...

Hi all,

Is it possible to purchase dashboard trim bits and bobs, e.g. Wood effect like in the facelifted Bongos?

Or any other ideas would also be appreciated.

Just fancy livening it up a bit. Grey is so boring! :x

Cheers

Taunton/somerset & surrounding area, please add to list!

Hi,

Just wondering how many Bongos/Bongonaughts there are in and around Taunton. I see a few about.

Can you all add to this list. Maybe we could have a local meet sometime soon?

Cheers

Nathan =D>
