What have you bought for your Cali today :-)

[babble]

Unless you need the third rail, the two rail carpet goes over the middle rail and the bed plus drawer still opens. Just a thought.

oh, don't the bed plus drawer open with the three rail carpet? (i do need the third rail)

Amazing how much rubbish I generate .................................

That is a mighty fine dustbin and I like the way you have secured it with the table, most ingenious

If you need the mid rail then that fine, just thought worth knowing if you wanted to cover the middle rail. good job you did not want a 4 motion then.

Thank you!
Actually the table was a ‘find’ in the charity shoppe on the way to the tip.
It certainly wasn’t by design , just a coincidence ...
Table indoors and bin back in garden.

Bought stainless side bars last year and decided to buy a rear bar now. Yes we have Sensors but its gives that added bit of protection and can imagine a rear bumper isn't cheap ...Think they look quite cool too....

 

[Pro moochers]

Just the usual highly exciting essentials

Can you post a photo of the rear one fitted please?

When I fit them I will....

Almost had my attention until I spotted the word Amazon. Complete parasite of a company.
Totally refuse to shop with them.

Agree wholeheartedly, before anyone hits that order button, remember their staff having to urinate in bottles on a shift.

Great piece of kit. Enjoy!

Dropped into slidepods whilst in Devon and Installed some cnc cut inserts into my seat bases to match my pod. Really love the look now, really adds something to my dull grey beach interior.

I’m pondering modifying my slidepod table to insert into the interior rail next.

Then maybe add led lights to the pop top

Nice! Just „clip them in“?

We used some small self tapping screws from the back. You could probably fit them in differently if you wanted to be none destructive but the plastic part is cheap so I didn’t worry.

They will give you a nice coffee.
When you hear it starting to boil up turn the gas down or the
coffee will splutter around the place.

Great stuff, a few tips;
Only clean with water, no soap,
Don’t use too much coffee, you don’t need to fill the little coffee holder all the way,
Low heat, and a little patience, listen/learn the different sounds,
As @westfalia said, when it starts to sputter, you’re done, you dont want to boil the coffee, it will become bitter.
—> enjoy

I’m sure you will all be waiting in anticipation.... it worked great, learned the hard way and only turned it off when I heard it hissing. By this time the top was full.
I must say, it makes a better brew than the cafetière - and I like my coffee.
So, just to say thanks really. I’m properly chuffed.
Glad I asked now

A brand new spare wheel and locking bolt because someone stole the old one on a recent visit to Legoland.

Received a very comforting email from them to let me know they are aware of the problem!

VW wanted £300, a big thank you to Benn who sorted me out with a new spare at 1/2 that cost.

What is the size & designation of the wheel please? I need to get one & my 18" alloys are too big?
