Mine is like this too. Someone suggested getting a kitchen type syringe and squirting bleach onto the green bits, leave it overnight then rinse out using the syringe and clean water. I haven't tried this yet. I used kebab sticks with cloth on the end to push in between the panes initially and got ri...

Bigger - thanks, will have another go later.

I haven't done this before, so apologies if the links don't work, but here goes! https://www.dropbox.com/s/ua4u0xzklq552wm/2016-05-27%2014.38.13.jpg?dl=0" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; https://www.dropbox.com/s/mq95shd900ifcbn/2016-05-27%2014.37.57.jpg?dl=0" onclick=&q...

Sean384 on here had his van done there a while back and recommended them to me, felt they offered a good service and were upfront about costs etc.

we are just having ours completely stripped out and resprayed. I hadn't got a clue what I had bought when I got an Atlantic and soon realised that to try and change the standard fittings was not the way to go if you want it to retain any value. Yes I know you think you will have it for life, but, in...

thanks everyone, it's gonna be a big decision!

yes, Newton Abbot in Devon, but it is the bodywork I am more interested in at the moment, I think that it is his wife who does the interiors if required.

thanks, that's good to know how the work has held up over a few years.

Went to Leeds VW Festival yesterday (yes, we caved in and paid the extortionate £17 each entry fee - might not again!!!), and saw a beautifully restored California. Had a long chat with the owners who recommended the above guy for bodywork and his wife for the upholstery and door cards etc. Does any...

Here's the update; the new auto electrician seemed to know what he was doing and tracked the battery drain down to (wait for it...) the TV/DVD combo that I had "professionally" fitted by Car Audio Point in Leeds about 18 months ago. So how two previous auto electricians had missed it, I re...

google VW curtains, look on E Bay, there are loads of suppliers out there.

are there any metal poppers around the cab area? That's how my original curtains were attached. I made myself some window screens with fabric to match the curatins in the back and the silver insulating foil you can buy from B&Q to put behind radiators. I bought some strong suction cups off e-bay...

ha ha! Thanks for fighting over me guys but I know it's only my battery you're interested in! I know Malpas and if it's not sorted, I will contact you. Where is Eastern Angle....?

thanks for that Ghost123. I have a new guy coming Friday so I will pass on all comments to him and we will see how we get on from there. I have now had TWO new batteries and at least one of these was not required, simply the caravan place being lazy and not really wanting to do the job when they act...

This has been an ongoing problem for 18 months now! I have had two new batteries (one of which I definitely did NOT need but that's a long story...), and I have a 3rd Auto Electrician coming out on Friday. I thought I would just flag it up on here to see if anyone else has had the same issue and wha...
