What have you bought for your Cali today :-)

[Bepto]

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 Ascot Grey.
You can buy it primed & paint yourself or buy it already painted.
We got this one from Veedubs, our previous one from Transporter HQ. Highly recommend both Veedubs & Transporter HQ
Vanstyle & a few other places also do them.

Much appreciated.

Did you have the shelves delivered to the UK from Germany and if so, were there any issues?

other than the £80 import duties / tax nope :/

We got our downstairs air bed and pump today, tried it in the front room, very comfy! Quick to go up and down with the pump ( think we got the pump after watching a California Time video).
We are starting to think we need to do on a diet!

Kampa XL storage bag, perfect fit for the rear mattress and pad

Not a purchase but a repurpose. By removing shower head this porta shower is ideal for putting 5 litres of water into the fresh water tank when driving the van to a tap isn’t ideal. (Have a Coast + shower option was very expensive as linked in to a lighting upgrade)

Bought a couple of extra new chairs as the kids were monopolising the Cali chairs on our last trip!

New ears ?

 

[Seaview]

Some new seat covers because we liked the look of them. They took about 4hrs to fit over two days by DH on his own who remained remarkably calm during the entire process which was challenging at times but we feel worth it.

Met with a forum member between Cheddar (where I’m staying for the weekend) and Devon (where he lives) to buy his Kylie rack. Been looking out for one of these for quite a while!

Did he come all the way from Devon with a Kylie rack "Especially For You"?
Sorry, I'll get my coat!

Outdoor revolution 1L kettle

We’ve bought four of these anti mosquitos sleeping liners for when it’s hot. I’ve waited to post until they had been tested. A few camping trips now done and also we took them to Vietnam (not in the van) and they worked. Other people on the trip were bitten at night. We didn’t get bitten. Highly recommended.

finally a cup holder for the back of the van that actually works. Yay.... https://amzn.to/3B42CF4

Except I just discovered you should remove it before putting the bed down... Ping...

Today got a towel drying rail (other wet clothes will dry too on it) and a small 10m hose pipe that fits nicely next to my works Hoover in the rear storage shelves. No metal parts on the drying rail thing so can’t scratch anything. Also the hooky things are adjustable so you can hook them over the front or rear seats so you could leave things to dry in the Cali while you are out and about or even at night time with the auxiliary heater on. Obviously leave a window slightly open to avoid condensation

Collapsible solar light from cinch tents - looked good when I saw them at NEC and they fold up small. Won’t be delivered for a few weeks tho

Love the clothes dryer, where’d you purchase from ?

 

[JohnCalifornia]

I got it from Home Bargains and it cost £2.49

 

[Yosoyjollyvan]

Also a 2 cook pro and a 100ah lithium bat

 

[IanE]

Mine go in the washing machine. They are also rubber backed so no bits of grit, sand, dead skin etc go into the tracks and can't be cleaned.

Hi Trudy - could you give details of your carpet? A link would be great. Suitable/attractive carpet is a tricky issue for us. Thanks!

Sorry it was £2.99 not £2.50

 

[wildslammer22]

He does money off the fitting price but also off the cost to buy the panel/an and the other bits and bobs required. Just email him with your foul name and he emails back your code (unique to you).

Bugger, missed out on that as I didn’t realise there was a discount code. It seems it pays to check everything on here first for anything Cali related!
