Hya -
Just to get things started:
We live inland from the Costa Blanca region of Spain, and we've recently got a 1992 Euro mobil 4-berth over-cab motorhome, on a Peugeot J5 2.5 litre non-turbo diesel chassis-cab base. 139,000 kms on the clock.
It has got factory fitted PAS, which apparently was a rarity at that time - but it's a damn good feature!!
It has spent most of it's life in Germany, and was then imported into the UK about 2 years ago.
I bought it here in Spain about 4 months ago off an English guy who'd used it to ferry stuff back and forth to here as he has emigrated to Spain.
It's an old dog, but everything works, and it's in superb condition for it's 15 years of age - no rust at all.
It has however got "saggy bottom" syndrome (the rear leaf springs are knackered) so I'm this week fitting a set of Grayston heavy-duty spring assisters to it to firm things up a bit.
We've already been on maybe half a dozen adventures around south eastern Spain, and we're off on a major excursion to Galicia, a region in the far North-west of Spain, in two weeks time.
Great fun - and should be even better when the temperature down here drops a bit back to tolerable heat!!!
Any other Peugeot J5/Citroen C25/Talbot Express chassis-cab chuggers from the same 1982-to-1994 chassis-cab PSA production time out there?
Cheers,
Bruce.
