It's been a good van so far, owned for 5 years now.  2008 model and has now only got 76,000 miles on it.

I didn't do a full conversion on the interior because we wanted to keep the second row of seats, so it's more of a day van than a camper. 

Can sleep two in the rear though if needed, LWB so more than 6ft of space behind the rear seats. We use an awning anyway when we go camping.

Thanks for the pics mate, you’ve made a cracking job on the interior!!

 

do you go to any of the shows too??

[JonnyUK]

Cheers buddy. 

Had plenty of time to do most of the interior because did it during the first lockdown.

Not been to any shows with the van but when we lived in Yorkshire we used to go to VW Festival at Harewood House in Leeds. Went to the first 7 or 8 when it started.

Girlfriends Golf was on one of the clubstands one year.

The Pay and Play day was great though we did cut it short due to it being extremely muddy which was very interesting on road tyres. That being said I was really surprised at how capable the Navara was, I wasn't convinced it do half of what it did. The Hill decent control works extremely well.

 

Only got one pic but I think there were a few people taking videos so if I come across any I'll post them up.

To be fair that was after the "first" lap, but yes it is awfully clean 🤣 Though not looking forward cleaning it now though 🙄 🤣

Our van gets dirtier going to Aldi lol 😁

 

Hose/jet wash underneath while it's still wet, thick mud is like concrete to get off once solid.

This is my little red light bomber..

 

It's 2002 Peugeot 206 1.4 GLX.  Say what you like about the looks and the marks.  It's ULEZ compliant, goes like a rocket, got Air Conditioning and was the best price of all.  Free 🙂

My friend had one of these, although I prefer the E60 M5, that engine, when its working is an absolute masterpiece. One of the best engines ever in a road car IMO

im enjoying it too and he thought he was driving it in eco mode but was normal mode, brilliant looking taxi loads of people turn and stare at it as its a pretty agressive looking astra and makes less noise than my losi mini b lol

 

hes getting a house charger fitted for it so should be hassle free, then he will have to look for who gives him a cheaper tarriff on leccy and solar panels lol

My 1/1 car was written off last night ☹️ was going straight on at a mini roundabout.  Already on the roundabout and some kid thinks he can cut the roundabout completely and get across in front of me 😔

 

It's ok though cause this little twerp 'was indicating mate'

[wolfie1]

Now that really is a bummer!
