Where are all these Bristolian syncros coming from Mudlark - I haven't seen them around town have you?

Any progress on the campsite thing dude? I did try to call you a couple of times to discuss but missed u both times. Jut shout if u want to discuss again... I heard a rumour about a standing surf wave on that site recently...

Hi John .. hope all is well with you and the family!

Two Bristolian syncros this month never seen nor heard of and the photos of the blue one look like its parked about a quarter of a mile away. Just goes to show there are probably far more out there than we think.

Site still of some interest; I read about the surfing lake and wait to see what comes of it. Is there an application in the offing?

The dossier of opposition from the BS9'ers to anything it their back yard is quite formidable though! and then there is the politics

It would be good to have a general chat about it some time; on the phone, or better still get yourself out for a day sometime with the syncro? we could hook the Bristolians up for a run day out around the Mendips.

I travel that road daily at all times of day for 14 years and I've never seen that van before. Jut saying, for no particular reason.
I think Brizzle has loads of camper vans due to it being a festival goers city.

Yeah I see LOADS of T25s around brizzle... just not that many syncros.

Hoping to get the van out and about this year after giving it a rest last year... want to do plenty of camping and could also be up for a local laning day. Heading down to futbus on fri to get started with a few bits on the van, so will see how it gets on. I was having some probs with water loss last year, but fingers crossed all will be fine!

Give me a shout anytime re the campsite stuff mudlark - I'll PM you my mobile no.

Looks a tidy-ish van, but a tad spensive for a hand job?? (painted)!!!!!

[silverbullet]

It has all the Syncro running gear, dual diff locks, and G gear. (rear diff lock requires a new actuator £40 from brickwerks)

OK not a nice job, but not bought or fitted...Hmmm

Mechanically this van is sound, although I think the viscous coupling may need reconditioning soon, the front wheels do turn though.

Also described as having a "Kitchenette" but I can't see one in the pics for the life of me...

So that must make mine worth about the same then

I'll be up for that!

Spend the same money on Mobile de for instance, you get a nice van with original paint and maybe a little history. My thoughts are it,s about £2000.00 overpriced?

[Holydiver]

It's strange I know theres lot of T3 around here but never see them on the road!
Bit like driving to a show you might see the odd one on the way but only start seeing any number within a couple of mile of the show!

I fancy buying a van off mobile.de and driving it back, almost a holiday in it's self??
