Re: Brighton Painting Body Work

I left the top as is... it's white so not an eye sore like a faded red one... No prep work, though the rust was purely cosmetic. They did it for £550. They also sorted out some of the cosmetic rust on the gas tank and a few other lower parts. They turned it around in 48 hours. It's the first job I'v...

Re: engine hatch seal

Hi I bought the engine hatch seal from Just Kampers for T25 (part J10737) a while back but didn't try installing it until today. I cut it down to size and it fits fine but now I can't get the lid back on. The J10737 seal is made of solid foam while the original is a foam piping i.e. it is hollow rat...

Thanks Jason

Body Worx did a top job!

For the record they do a lot of T25s and he said that mine was the best he had ever worked on :ok

Hi

Can anyone recommend somewhere in or near Brighton that will do a decent job of painting a 1991 Westfaila T25 with Hi-Top? She's in need of a fresh coat :)

Cheers

Westfalia hi top t25 height/clearance?

Hi have a 1991 T3(T25) Vangon Westfalia Hi Top, unfortunately she's at the mechanic's so I can't measure it myself, but does anyone know the official height of these beasts? I'm applying for a parking permit and one of the questions is weather or not it exceeds 2.25 meters in height (7.38 feet) cheers

Thanks

How bad is a cooked engine?

It was still running when I stopped, and it had no trouble starting

Oh oh Panic?

I'm very worried that I've really hurt my camper's 1.6TD engine (1991 T25). The battery indicator light went red, the revometer stopped responding, foolishly I kept driving... Then the engine temperature light started flashing red and I must have kept driving for just over 10 minutes.. Yeah I know! ...
