Agreed

If you're worried about top speed and hills you bought the wrong van mate :wink: Basically anything over 70 and you're caning it and yes hills will slow it down. Yeah I know I'm not worried about getting huge top speed or hills i'm concerned that the bus wasnt isnt running right you know what its l...

Hi Everybody,
Does anyone know the top speed i should expect out of a bulk standard 1.9 DG Caravelle 1986 C reg ?

And do they suffer going up even the slightest of hills ???

As all ways thanks in advance guys

Hi there, Van looks great, Did you line the roof?

If you are talking about the plates with the pins which the back of the seat hook over then this photo may help? (The plates are in place but the "pins" are missing) http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8302/7768683618_e2324198af.jpg seatbelt mounts by Larfinn , on Flickr The circled marks are t...

Here's atleast one image of how the standard caravelle seat is fitted (lower part folded forward), hope it helps! :ok http://images.thesamba.com/vw/gallery/pix/431433.jpg Thanks mine is nothing like this :oops: back to the drawing board and looks like i am missing a bracket.... :roll: Thanks again ...

Hi everyone, I have just battled with the rear seats in my caravelle and i'm not 100% sure that they are correctly fitted. The caravelle was a camper and i'm putting it back to a caravelle so i didnt remove them in the first place or have them at all, I bought them off that auction site and they cam...

I'll get my other half to take a loko when he is in the garage next as he has the van for welding at the moment

Cool thanks

That doesn't look factory as the factory roof has drain pipes going into and down the pillars but if it is genuine the reason the handle hasn't been changed for genuine is cos 701 877 453 4YX has the mechanism in it and is over £100 from VW the only way to know if the van was originally fitted with...

My van is a converted panel

Ok thanks is the handle the same?

Mine has those brackets too, hard to see in this light, but i reckon mine probably are hidden by the chassis too. i think mine will most likely have a fixed thread in the floor seeing as it's a genuine multivan, maybe you could use a rivnut for the ones with no access underneath? Yep thats an idea ...

Found this link on here mine like this but blue..... http://www.ebay.de/itm/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&_trksid=p4340.l2557&hash=item41601360dd&item=280784756957&nma=true&pt=Reisemobil_Caravan_Teile&rt=nc&si=GhPbObWclw4de0Jich84XRIYolg%253D&orig_cvip=true&rt=nc"...

That Multivan interior is way different to mine as my bench seat bolts to the floor via a sheet steel bracket on which the seat hinges mount. yep, mine the same as yours. Maybe his is a homemade bracket? Hi I'm have been trying to fit my multivan rear bench seat today in my caravelle i'm not really...

I have a Caravelle which apparantly has a factory fitted sunroof????? The handle has been replaced by the previous owner and does not work correctly. 1. Can anyone advise me if this is in fact "Factory Fitted" or just an addition 2. If a replacement handle is available 3. What it would loo...
