This years trip to France

Hi all, I know I am bongoless (alas), however as some of you know I still like to keep in touch with you all. On the 23rd July we'll be popping over to Roscoff with Betty (our self converted Renault Master) and spending 5 weeks exploring. We have no intention of setting foot on a campsite and plan t...

Re: Not leaving just yet after all!

That's Ok and thanks for the advice - may be the door since now and then the curtain on the door gets damp as though it's not sealed properly (though not all the time), which makes me suspicious. No idea how to fix it if it's that, but I'll give it a go. :D

Re: Not leaving just yet after all!

Thanks for the advice - I'll have a look at the sliding door first.

Re: Not leaving just yet after all!

Hi - it's a medium wheel base 2298cc 2012 model. We're not going to the East of France this year (it's being discussed for next though), we're going Plymouth to Roscoff and then down the West coast (maybe with a bit of the Loire, Dordogne, etc).....we'll see where we end up. One of the main things t...

Re: Not leaving just yet after all!

I’ll be honest. We’ve had it for 7 months and I still indicate with the wipers. Forget to change gear a lot too

Re: Not leaving just yet after all!

A spam butty sounds ace - can't make it to the bash though- busy that weekend. we're going to Woolacombe in a couple of weeks though and hoping to make it to Looe in September. Loving the Renault - it feels enormous - and we converted it ourselves so very proud of it. Doesn't mean we don't still mis...

Not leaving just yet after all!

Hello everyone,

Just thought I'd let you know that after my fairly recent promise to leave Bongo Fury (after having to change my van for a Renault Master), I have decided I just can't do it and have renewed my membership.

You've got me for another year! Aren't you lucky :D

Re: Elevating roof (pop top) too heavy to pull down alone

I once met someone who joined them with a longer piece of rope and then would sit in it so that it had his whole weight to pull it down - kind of like a swing!

Re: WOOLACOMBE BONGO BASH 11th-13th May 2018 (North Devon)

Looking forward to seeing you all there. We no longer have our bongo, but had a great time at Woolacombe last year, so will be there in our Renault Master.

Thanks Bob,

Don't know how many meets we'll be able to make, but I might still lurk on here from time to time.

Leaving you all!

As some of you already know, our beloved Bongo was written off during our French trip this year (luckily we weren't in it at the time, unluckily the lorry driver involved didn't leave any details). Because of this we have taken the plunge and done something we've been wanting to do for a long time w...

Re: Coolant or no coolant.....

If you're near the dealer I'd take it back and let them look at if. Failing that, take it to a garage (unless you're more proficient at mechanic stuff than I am - which is likely). If there's nothing in the header tank and what you pour in just disappears I suspect the system might need bleeding and...
