Title: THE NEW VAN IS HERE!!!
Post by: dazmond on February 03, 2017, 06:14:38 pm
130 miles on the clock! ;D ;D ;D

i need to get a new roof rack for it as i knackered one of the screws on the old one and cant get it off the old van! >:( >:(

tank getting fitted monday  then tuesday ill fit all my other gear in.back to work wednesday.sign writing a few weeks away yet.

first impressions are it looks really nice and sleek however it seems smaller inside than my t230?narrower and the roof is lower(better for getting the ladders off though).

the tank frame is getting fitted over the plastic load liner.as long as i can fit all my gear in ill be happy. ;D

i love having a full steel bulkhead as ive never had one before on a van(mesh bulkhead in the old one).

a lot of gadgets in the cab though.probably wont use most of them apart from heated seat and air con. :)

Photo's or it doesn't exist!!


If you're into this sort of thing, I still put a bit of protecktakote at the back of the van as the liner doesn't stop water getting to where the latch is for the barn doors, and where the door seals are

Also, dont be tempted to take the bung out for the spare wheel 'just to see what it is', as its a total arse to get back in flush!

Excellent.

Hope you enjoy it for a few months before it starts getting battered about and becomes just a van and a 5 year financial Burden.

As some would say on here
