I love it. Virtually everyone said "Don't convert" or "Wait and see what you really need".

So it's straight off to get a mid conversion! First step towards turning a useful vehicle with not a lot of disposable space into a Wendy House ( I like that analogy. Billy).

As far as the alloy wheels go, there are always plenty of steel wheels up for grabs which normally take cheaper, standard sized tyres, including having one as a full sized spare and they can be made to look pimpy by fitting plastic alloy lookalike trims. I suspect, though, that along with the furry dice, the wheels weren't the most important issue!
