its not that big, its pretty small really. Just enough room for a double bed up top, dining area that converts into a second double, kitche, fridge freezer, toilet, shower... you know the bare essentials when camping

yes the parking bays are a bit tight haha its on pretty much permanently, its a bit of faff to take it off. Itll be left the colour it is. Painting it would devalue it massively. Its being used as a test bed before i make my own really, see what i like, what i dont, how to improve it etc.

ive got some stronger rear springs on order!

picking it up on monday now mate, saves me a 300 mile journey as its only down the road from my work. Need to fix the transfer box leak beforehand as its howling - i suspect the input gear splines are about to pop - but at least getting some oil in the thing will help increase its life. need...

Well as if the 130 isnt too big enough to park in the office car park, burn enough fuel, and generally not the ideal commuter...... ive gone and purchased a demountable camper for the back of the thing. Pick it up on friday. It makes it about 20" longer and 35" taller... should handle like a...

out of a fourtwo, although fourfour seats fit too.

Smart car seats It's easy to modify them to split bases and they are way more comfy than rx8 seats. Also don't have stupid seat bolsters that are irritating when you get in and out

Good job im not doing the work then :p

ok so if i wanted a 170 chassis, and got it done by a proffesional chassis company, whats the crack with the DVLA? I am a bit confused about it as the interwebs flooded with so much crap. Does modifying the chassis length immediately make it a Q plate? Or is there a way of retaining the...

damnit i missed out on that transfer box.

phew normal service has resumed 3 amigos are back on :)

i presume that once it had lifted it was under quite alot of force from the wind speed - and it gave up the ghost. new bonnet on now :)

hey up i have the old turbo from my 200tdi in the shed, i bought a new cartridge for it (as the original is knackered) Its all in bits with the brand new cartridge yet to fit - but would work out considerably cheaper than buying a new one, with the benefit of the main bit being new... if you...

New propshaft ordered. Cant be arsed repairing the old one.

oohhh is it the double cardon joint that has snapped?

God damn it Passed its mot yesterday with no advisories and this today.... (i know propshaft etc is not part of mot test) Its my wife thats broken down - im 150 miles away. Is that part of the transfer box its snapped?

new bonnet sorted - puma one innit wallets feeling bruised from it though... sheesh!

i have fitted a new rear hub a while back... hmmmm good news is that it went for its mot today and only failed on the one anti roll bar drop link i hadn't done. so its in for its retest on tues :) excellent

Well choof me.. if the disco isn't totally fixed! New air bags, anti roll bar drop links, watts linkage, abs sensor, abs shuttle valve rewire, lights etc have all meant its ready to go for an MOT. At last! Took it for a spin down the drive and ye gods it drives soooooo much better. Must say...

Well the 130 is pretty quick for an old gal, itll do 93 mph on the flat. (ps I'm not condoning speeding, but we all do it) Shame the bonnet doesn't..... Decided it couldn't hold on any more and well, a little tiny bit of poo might have come out. Luckily the roof rack prevented the screen from...
