Thread: First Van--

Noice.

Good choice, congrats!
The Golf is a very nice and high quality van.
The factory closed down but AVan bought all the jigs and parts so they will be able to help with parts if needed.

Very good!

I looked at and would have liked one of those but settled on a much lesser van to see if we can make enough use of a van to warrant investing more or to scrap the whole idea.

Excellent choice, only ever heard good things about Golf vans.

That is excellent news about it also having solar. Its very difficult to go free camping properly with a full size van without solar. A 18 footer is a good all round size as well, not to big or small.

The best thing we ever did was buy a good off road van, makes last minute decisions on having a bush camping weekend away so easy to do compared to a camper/tent etc.

cheers,
Terry

Congrates to you both


I am sure Di as ticked all the boxes on this one when's our next camping trip?

Mrs hh

Soon!!!

Took it over a weighbridge this morning,,
4.04 all up.
1.62 with just the trailer wheels on the bridge,,
broken jockey wheel so no ball weight yet--.

The good news is I ran up to Oakey sans the hayman reese battleship towball hitch,, while I could tell the difference, I'm happy to run without,,
I might not sell the HR hitch just yet,,
I want to play around with ball weights, (who'd a thunk??), and the van ( I think-----) sits ever so slightly nose up.

Both Mrs Pedro and Guiness slept in it last night and pronounced it " Luxury",,
[actually Guiness just barked]

Congrats Pedro. That's a nice looking van !

May the D2 now hold up its end of the bargain.
