But you get offered “lager top” when down sarf!!!
Fill yer boots - you’re on hols!
That is the ultimate mullet. You need to ride that at BPW
Pleased with this! Reasonable bit cheaper / less complexity than the winder awnings, but still very Thule in quality and design. Also has the advantage of being a bit more extension than the 4900/5102 options at 2.5m. Bit of a gap between it and the van but it’s more geared as a day-van / picnic warrior, so not planning to be used for anything more than sun / drizzle relief. Cambelt service next on the list

We Drove up to Bacup today and had a Van- King bed fitted to our SWB Kombi by Murray, Pat and I are very pleased with the quality of the materials and can’t wait for the warmer weather to use it.
Murray is a great guy, clean worker and very pleasant and knowledgeable to talk to.

Finally changed the headlight bulbs after my earlier failed attempt and thinking it was 2 pairs of H7’s I needed.
H15’s arrived today ……2 hrs later and a loss less skin on my knuckles, they are in. That top connected block is a complete bar steward to reconnect! Thankfully the H7 bulbs were dead easy.

Nice van and set up...looks the bizz! Just wondering with those that keep their spare wheel on the roof...must be quite a task in getting up and down? How do you manage that?Pleased with this!

Call VW Assist!
Cheers! It’s not bad in fairness, I carry a telescoping ladder at all times and the non-awning side has locating brackets so I’ve a very stable way of getting up and down. It’s still a faf since it’s so unwieldy, but other than putting it up to start with I’ve not had to move it. It would love for it to be underneath but it doesn’t fit with it being oversize, and for the privilege of being 4mo I can’t get away with an undersized spare.
What size is the wheel/tyre? You can get oversize spare wheel carriers for the underneath but they come at a price! Cheaper to keep on the roof!
