It's a credit to you, great job

 

[Lenny HB]

Thats a lot of work, nice to see its being done properly. Hope he got it a the right price.

Some would say is it worth it...? But without mad dogs and English men these motors would be in the scrap heap....

An Autotrail as well.... I wonder if it will leak again....

looks a good job done..

A lot of work Well done , hope they are not in a hurry to get anywhere , I use to use the old 208 /308 vans , god they were slow , My first new van was a 1995 sprinter 312 , 5 cylinder 120hp seemed like a Ferrari after the 208

Seriously, amazing job - well done

I share your cringe Alan , almost identical to the ‘bargain’ my eldest daughter dived in and bought two years ago

we haven’t gone as far as you, don’t think Nats was quite as bad , but our troubles continue , I would get rid when done

I bought a 208 earlier,haven't been able to use it yet though. It is a Venture Wren Flyer limited edition. The habitation door is in the middle which makes for short bunks along or a double across. I prefer your layout for single bunks
