Re: Mot
I would just use a garage you trust, easier said than done I know but the one I use have no real previous knowledge of T25s but everyone at the place loves my van so all take an interest in it. Had a couple of issues that they've resolved, they even enjoyed doing it. Your van should pass or not wher...

Window fitting - Cambridge
Hi all, does anyone know of somewhere who can fit a side window in the Cambs area? I've got a small plastic caravan type that I want to take out & put in a standard size glass one. I'm not at the stage where I'm comfortable cutting a large hole in my van just yet! Many Thanks and a Happy New Yea...

Re: hook up cable
I bought a 10m one when we 1st got the van & soon realised I needed a longer one. Not all hook up points are that close so 25m would be best. You can never have too much!

Re: Engine Trouble
I have a 1.9dg as well. A while back I parked up after work & everything was fine....got in it next morning & turned the key, nothing. No sign of life apart from the lights on the dash, battery was good & all it ended up being was the ignition coil. Replaced it and all good, only cost me...

Re: Lakes or Peaks??
Thanks for the info. Distance to travel isn't a worry but we don't want it to be too busy so we're going for the Peaks.
Just a matter of finding that perfect campsite!
