Hello!
You are very welcome to drop by here. All of you.
I am between Jn's 21 and 22 on the A89 motorway. Bordeaux- Clermont ferrand. Smack in the middle of l'hexagone
I'm on holiday till 15 aug. There is plenty of room here and workshops.
I've just finished a T2 engine, so even the benches are tidy.
Set of spare wheels and tyres to get you home?

Re: Argh... Emergency in France...dragging noise
Thanks everyone for the advice when we were stuck in France! After that first day nothing else went wrong with the van so that was a relief. I was a bit paranoid about the wheel coming off for the rest of the trip though..
When we got back we went to a wheel specialist and they took one look at it and said the offset was wrong. (not that that would affect the fixing but obviously still not ideal). I think its possible that the nuts used weren't quite. Anyway, we're investigating getting some new wheels and once they're on i won't have to worry about it any more!
Cheers
