Re: Storing Meals for a Bongo Trip

Pot Noodles, tins of Spam, packets of easy-cook rice etc are ideal. Simple things which we can get the kids to cook too, when Jr went off to university he was in a house (3 girls, 3 boys) and he was the only one who knew how to cook ANYTHING.

Re: Fuel tank capacity

I've run our diesel dry (once...) and the needle definitely goes a lot lower than 'empty'. I reckon on about 40 miles after the light comes on. The mileage from a tankful is a useful indicator, I've had 450 miles out of one tank without running it dry. And the self-priming fuel system definitely ...

Re: Rotten Gearbox oil cooler pipes - HELP!!

Most Mazda dealers don't want to know but Warrington Mazda will definitely provide, the first thing they'll want to know is your chassis number then they'll get the part(s) from their warehouse in Belgium. Email is [email protected] and if you get Shanil Sohi, she knows Bongos and will ...

Re: Rust - is this the end of the road?

It depends whereabouts you are in the country and how much you love your Bongo. Your list doesn't sound that bad, have a look through THIS and you'll see that a lot can be done with an angle-grinder and a good bit of sheet-metalworking...

Re: Allan's Vehicle Services

Sad news, Allan is a top bloke. In 2011 we were on our inaugural tour of Cornwall (haven’t been back yet…) and we suddenly needed front discs & pads (should have been a bit more thorough on the pre-tour checks). Allan’s was closed for refurbishment or some major works but he opened up and sorted ...

Will's Whereabouts

This guy has done a load of stealth-camping videos on YouTube, quite a good watch. Well he's just been away in a Bongo and posted THIS up - could be useful for potential newbies....

Re: Touring Europe in a diesel

I don't know the current rules on low-emission-zones but steering clear of city centres is a good ploy anyway. A lot of parking is height-restricted so when we went in 2014 in Bongy, we parked outside the likes of Marseilles, Barcelona, Valencia, Madrid, Seville, Lisbon etc and just got the train or ...
