Hiya John
Did you get your van lowered when you had it converted

My T6 Journey...
- Thread starter moomin-j

Yes, but after spending on the van & conversion, I had to choose the low cost option of -40mm H&R springs with the original dampers.
Everybody raves re B14's, but as I have never driven a T6 with this option, I can't compare. I actually daren't drive a T6 with this option, as if I do I probably will want to spend another load of money!!!
I am happy enough with the H&R's - at the moment...
When is Christmas?
@moomin-j stumbled acros your build thread and your van looks amazing. Currently on the flooring stage of my van and have seen the flooring photo you posted here. Don’t suppose you know any details of the edging AJC used? I’m assuming it’s a rubber edge run along the sides of your flooring to bridge any small gap between floor and carpeted walls of the van.1 piece floor covering:

@BlayneKinley - after looking through the build photos, it would seem it's a sort of "P" profile rubber, held to the wooden floor with a million staples:
Possibly this sort of stuff:

Thanks for digging out some photos also, really nice detail to your conversion. I’ll definitely be purchasing a profile like this, really finishes off the edging nicely.
Well AJC have just joined the forum and I must say I have enjoyed reading about busters journey from start to finish Great write up John
Regarding the floor finishing, it is indeed P trim. Its available in several colours but we normally find the contrast works well

Welcome aboard, is it possible to drop in for a few minutes late one afternoon this week?
Thank you and yes your more than welcome.
It maybe best call Brandon on 01457 239071 to arrange a time. I am at work all week but have several other customers booked in for visits so we can arrange a suitable time when I have time to chat.

Thanks. Will do.
Also, either hitting the reply button or putting an @ sign before the username will alert the person you have replied @AJCConversions
He'd be even happier with a Yeti mug.
Have got the yearly review booked with a financial planner in Jan.@moomin-j I remember having a conversation about you when we discussed the minimum amount of monthly income for a happy retirement.
Glad to report, it's a lot less than we thought
Hopefully, he'll be the bearer of good news & I can become free from the chains of the daily 100 mile commute & the responsibility / accountability of work.
I may buy a cottage & rent it out @Sackmycook ...

Rachel Reeves and Millibund are trying to fcuk us over though so be careful. They don't like hardworking folk trying to make a living after early retirement through property.
Sorry about the politico....
