Hi all I have recently moved up near Hitchin and have left my long trusted mechanic on the south coast. Can anyone recommend a T25 friendly mechanic near Hitchin or in Hertfordshire somewhere? I made the mistake of taking the van to an independent for an MOT and it has failed on the handbrake, fuel ...

Thanks Titus let's hope they send some haribo with my order

Hi guys I have sourced some 16 inch merc mono block alloys for my t25. The centers have been bored out already so they are good to go on but I was wondering if I needed some extended wheel bolts to fit them safely.

I went down the rover p6 route. Managed to get a set of 4 domed caps for a tenner, removed the rover badge, polished them up and they look great. Definitely something to consider if your on a budget.

I'm currently having my van prepped for its MOT by Dave at Eastbourne campers and cars. I have had work done there before and been happy with the results/price. They are not to far from Hastings if your still looking for somewhere.

Fuel tank cleaner? http://i28.photobucket.com/albums/c229/kev1122/ohno.jpg :D Double face palm! I am forever being suckered into buying additives and cleaners. Be it STP oil treatment or Stop leak I just can't say no to those glistening cans of promise calling out to me at halfords. Have yet to fin...

Ok I will keep an eye on the forums.

Hi CovKid I'm interested in purchasing the paint your van wagon with a roller DVD but have no DVD player. Is there a digital download option?

I just brought a set of these on ebay. Will the rover badges lift off or will they need to be nuked with nitromors?

Awesome thanks kev, and thanks to everyone on the forum that has given me advice on the keeping Bertie on the road. Without this resource my t25 would be on its way to the scrap heap!
