Nice one, good info.
Haven't you got a pretty little girl to present this show or do we have to put up with you?

It's no good - I'm going to have to get me one of those little seats - be useful if I take my middle seats out.
Oh, and nice job Ian.

What a good idea showing how to do things on the Bongo. We think a very good idea Ian would be to show us all how to Lower the Roof Manually with the rope etc. Just a thought.

Great vid Ian - but you don't really need to use the engine to close the roof - the weight of it almost turns the motors on the descent

Yeah would love to see a vid of the manual roof lowering.

Very good Ian - but I think you may need to call the camera man back. Engine on -good idea. Handbrake on essential. What about being in 'park'.
I can see your enjoying this - go on make another!!!
Seriously, this is so simple but such a useful idea, it costs next to nothing to give people exact and informative guides to the basics of bongo ownership.
When are you filming coolant bleeding?
I would offer to do hook ups and leisure batteries, but typing a few things on the forum is my limit. Well done.
