Hi All
We took delivery of our T6 about a month ago now and haven’t really purchased anything for it as waiting for the Black Friday Sales, can people list what they recommend you need please.
So far we have the following which are the big ticket items but smaller ones would also be helpful.
Thanks in advance.
-Awning
-pop top thermal wrap
-screen shades
-net for pop top to stop kids falling down

Thinking through some of the things that live permanently in and/or get added when we use our van:-

Outside tables and chairs.
Something to cook on outside, eg. Cadac.
Lightweight tableware - melamine is good.
Decent pans - forget the cheap, non stick, camping specific ones.
Cooking utensils.
Cutlery.
Large doormat.
Hosepipe and/or something to carry water in.
Levelling ramps.
Selection of travel games.
Waste water container (if no integral waste tank).
Electric hook up cable.
Head torches.
Etc. Etc.

Much appreciated.
Do you have a mat in the kitchen at area of the van?

No, we just have a narrow mat inside the sliding door as need the bulk of the floor clear for outer door of fridge and table leg insert.

Ok, Great point as I haven’t checked if the fridge would open with a carpet in the kitchen area.
Busy Friday for me.

The little O-Light i1R EOS torch. Tiny, rechargeable, aluminium, waterproof, dual settings of 5 or 130 lumens, and you’ve always got it with you.

It’s about £12 and includes a really short micro USB recharging lead. Perfect for the van.
