That looks great 😃
Often thought it would be a good idea, but never seen anyone do it.
Top little enhancement.

Thanks.
I originally had vinyl done on the back panels back in 2018 when I got the Maxi.
Years of sun and weather took their toll and I removed the vinyl two weeks ago.
Had it redone this morning.

Fitted auto headlight switch to my Caddy (£15 from eBay). Kept realising I was driving off at night without the headlights on, after too many years of having cars with auto headlights! It shows that some of these driver aids actually make you a worse driver if you get into something without them.

Can you show a pic of your wheels? Looking interesting, I like the offroad-look.

Changed my brilliant reception Hirschmann 400mm aerial for a smaller (doesn't hit trees and height restrictions !) shark.

German ATBB 3775.01 Amplified FM + DAB

Out of stock in UK but same or better price from DE
https://www.carfeature.de/en/hifi-navig ... 2096377501

Almost as good reception and better than mirror aerials !!!

Not "to" the van as such but more "for" the van.

Picked up this beastie, 2.0 TDI with a 6 speed manual box. Drove it all the way back from Wales and didn't miss a beat. It'll almost be a shame to tear it apart :lol:
