Hello. Been awol since before the upgrade.
#1
Hi everyone - access got a bit buggy getting on here prior to the upgrade & I got out of the habit of checking in  Had our XTR nearly 28 months now & still love it.  Been trouble-free mechanically but have had a couple of bodywork issues dealt with on warranty.   We had a 07 Skoda Octavia Scout as our 2nd car but that's now gone & been replaced with a Dispatch van which we've kitted out as a holiday & race van (our son races MTB).  Spoilt for choice when going away now!

Thanks!  Getting about 35mpg but if partner with me she hates speed so will likely get more!  It's her daily runner but I get to keep the DPF clean!

Just got the Fiamma wind-out awning to fit this weekend & stereo upgrade.  

We are confirmed tent campers so didn't want to go for a full conversion preferring the space for bikes, a couple of inflatable canoes & other kit

It looks really good. I'll have to think about it.It would answer a lot of questions for me.A full size motorhome is too big & posh(we have dogs).Thanks for the pics Big Grin

Aye - we just have the one little dog who goes in her cage but the bike is often covered in mud if there's no bike wash at events. It'll get mucky! We'll have rubber matting down & I have a cover to throw over the bike but I didn't want to be fannying on too much by filling the van with unnecessary fittings & taking up all the space & making it awkward to get the bike in. I'm not a fan of the amdro kit for the Berlingo for similar reasons. I like space - inside & out. They're clever & we were impressed when we first saw them but in use they'd just make me claustrophobic.
