Van going great, blasted down to Somerset. Wild camp first night, then on our way the next morning.
Rolled through a traffic light, lifted the clutch pedal and lost all gears?

Managed to get forth gear and enough momentum to get off the road. lifted the bonnet and found the top

gearbox mounting bolt had come undone.
I only have myself to blame for this one as I had the gearbox out in October. I guess it's taken this long to unwind.

Anyway recovery guy managed to jack the engine back up and refit the bolt, I think I'll thread-lock it when I get a chance.
 
Back on the road, we had to wait about an hour for the recovery guy and about 20min to persuade him to have ago at fixing it at the roadside.
Had a great 4 day weekend, now back at home.
 
Glad it wasn't a serious one.
 
Hellow, great you're on the road again and had a great trip!
Did you also change the 'Fiamma Cargo Back Soft Luggage Box' into a smaler version?
