that is a classic Renault Alpine ( A110 ) ( 70's Reg plate ) and a Ford CA as far as i can tellI will take the Renault A110 off the top tier of that trailer, its worth the cost of the MH towing it, and it should make him legal to tow that piece of Nissan crap under it.
How does your mum feel about parking her car in the street?, or doesn't she know yet? Guess she will find out in the morning eh?
Good van for the money, safe journey home.

My favourite is the yellow one, which I nick named "The Shit Hot Banana" many years back, the other is a nice metallic Blue.
A monkey could put a stick in 5 or 6 different positions,,what skill is required with a modern syncromesh gear box.Skill was required years ago with full crash box's and gear box's like fuller twin splits where you changed without using your clutch,,just listened and judged the revs..BUSBY
Proper job.BUSBY.
I don't think id get the best price for the Caravan at this time of year so ill hang on to it till i come back and advertise it at the start of the season ..
Here's hoping ...come springtime.
I thought so too ... looks like a 3.5t motorhome and i reckon he must have 2t on that trailer
Just the single door which seems a good quality one too its got the 6 point locks on it
No ill still be building the merc this ones just a stop gap ....Don’t get to like it too much! I fear you might sideline the project move it on and jobs a good one
Can't fit it in the drive so it will be on the street ...I will take the Renault A110 off the top tier of that trailer, its worth the cost of the MH towing it, and it should make him legal to tow that piece of Nissan Edit: Ford crap under it.

I thought it looked more like an older hobby than an eldiss thats for sure ...it probably looked quite good when it was first done.Can’t help but think the paintwork of the new van looks euro/Scottish colours…
Ill just be painting the bottom half to tidy it up a bit ....paintjobs too expensive and time consuming. Doesn't have to be a looker
Aye, the nice friendly gentlemen from the “have” thread, how does it feel to be such a perfect specimen ? Your list of followers must be growing …….Aye, and can you imagine the automatic box lovers trying to drive one.
Wilko finest royal blue perhaps a bit dark?
I think you have me confused with someone who gives a!!!
Aye, and can you imagine the automatic box lovers trying to drive one
You two need to get a room
I think all the blue might be going for now ...the window frames will go black and the blue will be flattened and primed, the plastics sanded and plastic primed. That will do for the minute. And those eldiss stickers removed lol. Wheels need a coat of paint too. But ill have to make sure the batteries are charging etc and that the appliances all work.. ...might need a refillable gas bottle too as it only has a 6kg calor in it.
End of October ... probably come back end of January or February if i spend a month outwith shengen. I want to get the other side of the vario done too so ive got about 4 or 5 weeks to work hard getting the vario to a decent standard for leaving over winter and to do the jobs on this one to make sure its ok for travel.
I quite like an auto but they are not good for elderly drivers,,Many accidents caused in confined environments by us doderes in supermarket car parks using auto box's.. BUSBY.Aye, and can you imagine the automatic box lovers trying to drive one
You know you will miss me popping inYippee I win, ferry on Monday not back until 10th Nov.
although last time i did that i broke down not after lol .Lucky bugger,,41 days for me this trip.Home 25 th Oct.BUSBY,,Yippee I win, ferry on Monday not back until 10th Nov.
Mostly by elderly people who changed to an auto because they were struggling with a manual.
Maybe not, live and let live, I have a good friend who is dyslectic, so I am not a fan of the grammar police, life is difficult enough for people suffering with that, just wish people where a bit more respectful and thoughtful, being friendly and understanding isn’t costing you anything, it’s free and makes people ‘s life a lot more joyful !You two need to get a room
We only ever do 40-45 days 'er indoors won't let me do longer she has to get back to see the grandkids.
Not sure about that Lenny,,My mother who drove autos for years wrote her car off plus the car she hit in a supermarket car park,,and same with my brother in law who when under a bit of pressure reversing out of his drive hit the gas pedal instead of the stop one demolished his front wall.The policeman I spoke too after her adventure told me auto and elderly were bad news.BUSBY.
No hope for me then the vans an auto and the next car definitely will be.
I am dyslexic,, Other than can't measure and can't write legible etc ,,not that much off a problem..BUSBY.
