Fortnight in Ireland coming up

I'm a year into life with a Bongo and it has made me happier than I ever thought it could. Apart from the odd issue, which have all been easily solved (Alan and Roger at Fairview Garage in Cheltenham are genuinely the kindest and most honest pair I've come across and they don't rest till they've got...

Re: reupholstery

Hi Brett - I've seen some lovely work from https://www.jomaupholstery.com. Her brother posted some great videos of his and his other half's conversion and the Joma seats looked fantastic, I looked into it from there and she's obviously really talented. Worth a look!

Keeping warm without a diesel heater

Happy new year everyone! I'm finally picking up my fitted-out Bongo next weekend - looking forward to sharing some pics and properly joining your merry band. I haven't had a heater fitted yet as we were a bit short of space and I've been trying to avoid diesel so didn't opt for that in the build, bu...

Re: Central locking on sliding door not working

I've had this too - I clicked lock on the key fob before the sliding door had fully closed and now the passenger side makes a noise when I try to lock and unlock. The boot and driver door still works; the passenger and sliding door don't. Have I broken it? TORPUSCAT any joy with a fix for yours?

Lids on the sink/hob combo - robust?

Morning all, I'm just deciding on the fit-out of the silver dream machine, and before I go for the Dometic combo can anyone tell me how robust the lids are? For those that have them, do you use them like glass worktop savers and put stuff on the top of them or chop things, or are they easily damaged...
