Booooooom...it’s a pass and first year without advisories - even none on oil leaks (I give it a month ). A summer of Commering ahead. Thanks for all the help
Growing family so more space needed so as well as doing the 2x three point belts in the rear, a bike rack etc. (And trying to avoid trailers) I’ve been searching for a large top box without success, was about to start making one when fell on a fairly lightweight aluminium flight case - make great and very cheap roof boxes with tons of character, this was £35. probably has some stories to tell as was being used for years by a roadie for cabling. Added hinges this week and got a couple of struts on order to help lift the lid.
Yer thought about that but did wonder on the legality of it got one of those telescopic ladders for now which is quite useful for rescuing cats and generally being the campsite hero. Fitting the spare on the front at some point to allow for water and gas to go under the van, will be incorporating some type of rungs into that I think
