I am suffering with "Seperation Issues" over my van!!
We have been to see a few now with a view to getting a bigger one for, more or less, full timing. We both then go back to our van and sit there talking about keeping it, as the van just viewed wasn't as cosy/warm/light/did we really need to spend another £12,000 on top of whatever we get for this one, just to get a bit more space.
We started to formulate a plan to change the layout to make the sitting area more comfortable and get more storage space. Hilldweller, if you see this can you direct me to the thread you did a while ago on changing your layout please?) upgrade payload so the unused scooter rack can carry an external locker/box thingy, fit an underslung LPG tank so current gas locker becomes storage for a fitted 2kw generator. A final job will be to replace the gas struts on the drop down bed and the slates under the mattress and reupholster all seats.
Bearing in mind Colin can do nearly all of this work himself, is it really worth the effort in a 20 year old van?
