VW and T25 aaand Syncro newbie
Well Hello, just saying Hi as a new owner as I just collected Ian's (aka Twiggy) old yellow Syncro. I've been a stalker on here for a few years on and off and hoped to get a T25 and now its finally happened and I'm very happy.
I've spoken with a few people from here recently with a view to buying a Syncro etc. and have been impressed with the friendly and helpful attitude, ta very much indeed. It has been one of those purchases that are just right as Ian made it such a pleasure. Both nights we met, at his house, I got back home around 2pm as we spent hours talking about everything and anything!!
Squeezed her (Sandy, Mellow Yellow . . . ? ?) into the back garden tonight onto the lawn (does that count as offroading !!??) so that Liza my better half can get the camping stuff sorted.
Looking forward to our first mini adventure
all the best,
Les n Liza

Well done! It's a very tidy bus, it's the envy of many, myself included.
See you around

Re: VW and T25 aaand Syncro newbie
Ah that's great, thanks for the welcome.
I've been adding a few security 'features' this week, if anyone has any top tips on security I'd appreciate a PM. Really don't want to lose this van or any of the bits n bobs.
Ian hasn't left me much to do but better put a workshop manual on the shopping list for the future, whats the best one to go for?

Bentley for the full syncro low-down. Aidan can sort you out a digital one, much cheaper than the paper version!
