What have you bought for your Cali today :-)

[SmilingFloFrance]

In what respect?

I was wondering about the reason why, I gathered based on your other response it has to do with speedo measurements

The reason for the size change is that they’re more expensive in the 18” tyre size that comes with the van as standard.

 

[markusschork]

Yes you can. If you read the (many) threads of the forum, the tyre swap that I have done makes the speedo pretty much 100% accurate (rather than the speedo stating a higher speed than you’re actually doing). You can’t just change to any old size though, they need to be close to the factory spec’d sizes to keep the overall diameter close

I was worried that the width of the wheel wouldn’t fit the tire.
I got the Cross Climate in 255/45 18”, but that was pricier and probably slightly less economic

following us being unable to camp at Cheeky Chicken sanctuary in York due to lack of toilets I have finally bitten the bullet and ordered a Trobolo wangago lite. Can’t really get excited about a toilet, but I’m trying to muster some enthusiasm to balance out the cost!

Bought & fitted a rear spoiler.
We put one onto our previous Cali, spoilers are a favourite of ours, we think they really enhance the van.

Yes thats the puppy. i had someone video a review for me before parting with cash. She has a wandago and the things she didn’t like were the bits that are not on the lite. My only concern is the lack of lid on the solids section

If you thought that was expensive, well you haven't seen anything. Cheapest kit with agitator is about a grand.

Just bonded, did the same with the Beach, never any issues, was completely solid & secure.

Apart from looking good, does it reduce the dirt attracted to the back of the van, especially on the motorway?

I have bought items from the UK via Amazon.de so the reverse might also be possible.

[michelevismara]

Got myself a shelf and some coat hangers from vanzeit.com
The hooks seem pretty robust, the shelf is the smaller size but reasonable price
