Hey Panky, yeah the interior never got quite finished, it's going back into the workshop end of April so will post some pics then. I definitely need to build up my posts!! Cheers Malcolmmer for your info and value at the insurance company. Glad that your commer has come out of hibernation!

Wow, cheers everyone for your great replies! I love the Commer van fan community! I am not planning on selling the van but i was just trying to find a comforting thought in spending 4k. And if i thought it would nicely add to the overall value then parting with 4k it doesn't seem too painful. I...

Hi All! Ok i know how long is a piece of string, but I'm trying to work out what top end Commers go for? What has prompted the question is how much money i invest in my '67 Wanderer. I want to try to get it to 'showroom' quality and I've been to a coachwork down in Brighton to get a quote for...

Hahaha, so true! Cheers once again for all of your help, much appreciated!! I'll update this post when I find out more.

Cheers Panky for all of that advice. I'll try to look at that tomorrow. I can't get the mechanic to look at it until next week, but Speedy spares are just round the corner so hopefully they will have the parts to fix it. You mentioned it would be fine to get to the mechanics but would going on a...

It is a pain as majority of time I end up going into 3rd when trying to pull away and then it can take a while and a bit of jigging to find first or at least 2nd....whilst traffic behind have to wait patiently. It's going to get looked at next week but from driving it today and all of a sudden...

Hi Panky, yes I can get all of the gears. First and second are the tricky one to get into, but I have no problem with 3rd, 4th and reverse. I am having the same problem getting it into first and second like I had before but now the gearbox seems very loose. However when it does go into gear it...

I've been reading previous posts on gear boxes but still not sure what has happened to mine. I've been having trouble getting into gears recently and it was booked in to the mechanics next week to get looked at. Today the gear stick was stiff to move, but then all of a sudden whilst trying to...

It's a bit of a facade on myside, as it's my mates workshop and his cnc machine and skills in crafting it. You could say I had the plan, but wouldn't of been possible without my mates skills. www.setyard.co.uk.

Hi Renaultivation - like the comment! Lulu...I was going to quickly explain but there is not really a quick way of doing it, so I'll get the ball rolling. Not sure how people will take to this, but i haven't kept the inside of the van traditional. It's been a long process but eventually all the...

Cheers Panky, I had a great day chugging along in the Downs and by the sea - obviously helped by the sunshine!

It seems that since buying Jog at end of August last year it hasn't stopped raining. So with a bit of sunshine Jog has come out of hibernation and it's been great driving around Brighton. Here are a few photos of Jog does Brighton. I have been renovating the inside so will follow with...

I'm in Commer heaven! Absolutely love my new van Jog. Got it back to Brighton smoothly cruising(?!?) at 55, the steep hills to Brighton took that down to 40 and to my surprise I actually overtook someone!! It wasn't quite a level playing field as the guy was well and truly distracted on the...

I'm in good company then!

Cheers all for the congratulations as I'm one very happy owner. Hi Chamba, it's good to know that there are Commer fans near by, must hook up for a beer - any excuse!

Cheers!! It's my first Commer! :) Had other campers in the past but thought i would save the best to last! :) ;)

Happy Birthday!!

Sorry didn't want to give anything away before until the deal was done as didn't want to jinx it. But now i can proudly say I am the new owner of Jog. Looking forward to being part of the Commer family.... and the madhouse! :)

Hi Everyone, My name is René and I thought i would introduce myself as the new owner of Jog who will be joining me on the south coast in Brighton. Looking forward to being a part of the Commer family and meeting fellow enthusiasts. Good luck renaultvation with finding a Commer.
