Indeed. Ours is still hibernating, but the more I read, the more paranoid I get about leaks. I just want Bongo ownership to be a happy experience for us both. Definitely gonna be doing this shortly.

Re: Are we in the right place?

Are we in the right place?
Hi folks. We're located in East Northants, in a certain ex steel town, and have been wondering whether we would be in the eastern counties group or the midlands one? Quite a trivial question I know but want to make sure I'm posting in the right place.

Re: 18" Road Wheels

Re: 18" Road Wheels
P-med, what year is your Bongo? And do you have any tyre clearance problems? I was looking at different sizes of tyre at work today and I think a 225/55/18 could be spot on.

Sediment light.
Evening folks. Been wondering what the sediment light means. Not in 15 years of driving have I owned a vehicle with a sediment light, and i've had few Jap imports in the past.
