    It’s great. There’s a campsite out the back (not theirs) Stayed last year. Spent a few hours mooching about. The main man took a pound off me for the pleasure. Two good pubs, a chocolate shop and a excellent chippy. What more could you want.

  6. No Wayne Kerr is real ;) no jest, apart from the interesting choice of company name (if you live on east side of the pond).

  8. Just watched the Mg Midget conversion and rebuild. £40k budget and they didn’t bother their asses to rechrome the rear view mirror bracket!

    none of these type of programmes show you anything, they tell a life story of a person involved, but actual hands on spannering ! nothing. Ive given up watching them now . also , whilst were at it , if anyone thinks the BBC is bad value for money , take a look on Freeview, theres nothing but adverts on with bits of programmes interupting them

    Looks like a new series has started that includes a Splity conversion is starting tonight. Not sure when it's going to be the campers turn.

    It’s still an annoying show but I still watch it. Doesn’t seem to make business sense, more for very rich people who want a toy

    I’ve watched a few of these now, as a last resort.
    It really does tell you nothing at all about what they do!

    that’s because they don’t do much

    Buy a motor
    Get someone to make adapter plate and fit motor
    Buy some batteries
    Make some battery boxes
    Wire it up and plug a laptop in

    talk about it’s the best thing since sliced bread

    What worries me is the extra weight and torque and the effects it has on the running gear.
