Hi.

I am looking for a reasonable priced workshop in the Highlands of Scotland as I would like to repair archers and spray the bottom half of my Bongo. I live just outside Inverness. Any recommendations? Thank you

Re: 17" Tyres Size

All Bongo tyres are essentially van/commercial vehicle tyres because of the increased load rating. The problem comes when people install car tyres, as they are not designed for such heavy loads.

Hi,
Anyone selling their Bongo in the Highlands? I am thinking of getting something newer than the 1996 one we have just now.
Not converted and free top please.

Re: Pipes, leak

Hi all. I am not sure if they are the right pipes and will need to take the vehicle to a mechanic who knows what is doing, this way I order the right part. Thank you all for your help.
