Don't give up with Colin in Buckley, he has been away because of a bereavement, seriously you can't get better than him

Can definately recommend Colin in Buckley, his work is spot on

Hi there, just found this post - thats our old bus! :ok Nice to see the old girl is being well looked after. Like the white wall tyres BTW.

Can anyone tell me if this fuel filter was installed on 2.0 litre Aircooled vans in this country? http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/BOSCH-Porsche-914-Beetle-Vanagon-Transporte-Fuel-Filter_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQhashZitem51890a5329QQitemZ350191506217QQptZMotorsQ5fCarQ5fTruckQ5fPartsQ5fAccessories" oncli...

Glad to have given you the inspiration to do it. The dirrerence with the T4 is that the fog light just flicks out, but I'm sure you'll come up with your own solution to that

Go for the Carat, they look sweet

Cheers Windy, not come across that before - the question is now where to find one

I am thinking of buying a multivan (I need something that will fit in the garage) but what spec do these vans have? What is the difference between a blue/white/redstar and a multivan and which is the best spec'd model to go for? What price would I be expecting to pay for a good condition van prefera...

I transfered the Michelin MXT's from my steel wheels that the last owner had very kindly paid for
