Re: just bought a '90 T25 need advice

I would keep it Atlantic. Live with it for a time. It's character will probably tell you that. The things you keep in it and the good times the bus gives you will personalise it enough. You could do the curtains I suppose. Just keep the originals. A nice stance ( improves the ride if good quality), ...

Re: Respray on my Atlantic

Indeed a dilemma. There are only three Atlantic colours. Your White, Kirschrot( cherry red), and Calypso (pale metallic green ). Maybe 2 tone - White over.......? ...It maybe wouldn't detract the value as much as an unrelated colour. Wacky wheel colours can be changed easily. Keep original curtains ...

Re: Good (T25 sympathetic ) body shop?

Thanks JJ Yes it is. But I managed to get a couple of severe stone chips.- I've had to replace the windscreen too due to another stone -. Also those concrete central barriers on the French auto routes get a build up of grit. Which creates a sand blasting effect when disturbed by other cars. It has b...

Good (T25 sympathetic ) body shop?

I'm looking to freshen up the bus paint come autumn. Nothing serious. Stone chips/ check out cracked paint on seams. But would like to know I am using someone who will look to cure any rust issues- (You know don't you )- Rather than just blow over the top. I know a really good sprayer. But he's more...

Re: Holmesly Bay - is it REALLY that bad??

We got back yesterday, having stayed 3 nights. We couldn't really fault the site. It was busy but not noisy. I was able pick a pitch which didn't require chocking the bus.
