I've been on a quest recently for a set of springs for my Bongo, and the question has arrisen, is my Wellhouse converted Bongo heavier or lighter than a non converted with all the seats in ?
I guess, without taking the Bongo to a weight bridge, this will be hard to work out.
Its got one side converted with a fridge, rock N roll bed, gas bottle.... I'm guessing its about the same ??

I don't think there's much difference and it's certainly lighter than one with all seats filled
