Finally got our Bongo Winnie

Post by Quinny » Thu Jun 29, 2017 5:53 pm

After quite a long wait we have finally got our hands on our Bongo, Winnie. She has only had her roof converted for now and then she will go back in September for the full conversion. We are off to the Cotswolds on our first adventure next week, for a couple of nights. Hope we don't make too much of a fool of ourselves trying to attach the awning!!! I would like to thank everyone for your help and advice in getting us to this point.

I would love to add a picture but It keeps telling me the files are too big grrr.

Welcome aboard indeed. I liked reading your posts, I've searched them as relevant to my quest for a new one. In Brighton and have had trouble finding a V6 to replace a V6 warhorse that's served us 10 years. Looking at the Worcester man and currently being put in my place by email! I feel he will get what I want.

I'm glad you enjoyed my posts and that they were of some help to you. I was put in my place many a time, by email and by text!. It was quite comical really, but he does indeed come up with the goods and I am really pleased we went with him. Our Winnie is all packed up and ready for our first adventure in the morning. I can't wait. :D

I'm probably not brave enough to drive to France but intend to explore the British Isles from top to toe. High on the bucket list is Scotland the Lake District and Northumbria. Enjoy your Bongo :D
