Well that’s an ‘A’-frame and a half!

Good bit of kit ,don't get used much now but use to drag series 1&2 rs turbo,s from all over the country back to my place, lucky I hadn't sold it or would of had to use the tow pole

Did say the van was not moving off the drive today ,then get a call from mum & dad saying they have broken down on top of Brecon, dig the A frame out the shed and drive 85 miles to the rescue .
The 180 towed the Peugeot 306 estate home lovely didn't even know it was on the back and only got over took once on the way home by a bmw.
Had to take a couple of pics

It's a nice run, Top gear used it a few times and continued on to the road over to panderyn. (Where the two SAS guys sadly died when training a few years back)

I've All ready got x4 range rover sport space savers just got to find the time to deliver them to the bloke who is going to band them.
Must admit they do look nice on lowered vans, you running b14 now ? I'm still on the eibach 50mm which I'm happy with

B14 is my next big mod after the re-map. I'm running 30mm springs and I was finding them very comfortable, but recently they seem to be getting a little crashy. I don't know if it's just me, or the general state of the roads, but after hours of reading the reviews on the comfort and 'night and day' comments on the Operation B14 thread, I think it's time I gave in and joined.

Best thing I did was remap this 180 dsg very responsive now.
B14 or air

Lol, thanks. Had the back end done too by PP Tuning so only got the side skirts to do and then that will probably be the lot........although an ABT front end could be on the cards lol

is that the forum challenge?

 

[Tourershine]

is that the forum challenge?

It's a common misconception that mine is always shiny. It's just the same few pictures from different angles when it was brand new, and the backgrounds cleverly photoshopped.

 

[TomH]

Forum challenge then, how shiny can we get our vans? As it’s on the side on Sunday thread, here’s a side on shiny pic taken on a Sunday.
