Since 1996, had Elddis/Swift/Rapido/Rimor/Chausson MHs. Autocruise/Globecar PVCs/Compactline i-138
60 plastic coat hangers to replace the 60 wire ones.

I'm bored and need something to do:cool:
Don't dispose of the wire ones ... as soon as you do you'll need a piece of wire to stick somewhere and won't have one! :giggle:

I’ve just bitten the bullet finally and bought a Dunlop Air Assist kit for our Moho. It’s only taken a year to make up our minds but boredom has played a part too.
Before someone says I could have bought this model or that model , I would rather pay a little extra for a well known name , both airbags and supplier . Please don’t be offended if I ignored your advice / suggestions .

Roofing felt adhesive for shed roof bloody wind?? now the rain is getting in so needs to be done soon. 20k bag of readymix concrete to fill in crack in Breeze blocks been meaning to do this for 4 years?

Some extra pads for the new car/van polisher. Got to wait until it has been raining makes it easier to get the bird poo off then hopefully get a shine on the van.

Bought a set of tyre protectors off of Amazon to keep the UV from the sun at bay.

Although they have an elasticated strap and hooks, I found that the elasticated edge gripped very well and did not budge even I the gusty winds earlier in the week.

Amazon product ASIN B07C5D6RHB

Hair clippers now that John is happy with the haircut I gave him. Pair of wedge sandals for me, after boasting of how I could reach the pedals no bother in the new van realised I had only ever driven it wearing boots. amazing what a difference 1/2" makes ;).
Only difference to last ducato is the type of seat swivel used.

What size wheels are yours ? Ours are 16” rims and have I think 265 tyres on

My tyres are 225 x 16" and the covers are by no means a snug fit so will fit a broader tyre.

265 sounds a lot wider than I would expect as the Auto-Trail website says the bigger Apache 700 runs on 235 x 16" and the smaller Apache's on 225's.

Bought a 150w solar panel to add to our miserly 80w. Might as well do some upgrades while we can't go anywhere.

And something harder to find than unicorn poo... Multi finish plaster 😀

Yeh bagged a victron Smartsolar 75/15 off a fellow funster the other week. 😁

So good to go, just gotta make some ally brackets. Will leave the 80w running on the factory one
