  1. Yes, that's the one, phone camera not great!
     
  2. I wondered. Ive got one or two of them but I think they are just for the roof windows (velcro). WAs looking at trying to get standard ones but the colour isnt overly inspiring!
     
  3. no, its a bit... dull!... hence why i am getting some new ones made up!
    using some ebay fabric think it should brighten it up a bit!

  5. I'm about to remove a super Viking roof if anyone is interested in it? The fibreglass has seen better days, but the canvas is in good condition. The beds up top are good too. Let me know if you interested let me know
     
  6. Which version ,hammocks or bunks ?
     
  7. i am interested very much so if its a super 6 ie the one with the solid beds. get back on that and let me know eher you are too!
     
  8. Hello , can I join the Viking hoarde please?
    My van is called Rhonda and she is a big up top kinda girl (Super Viking) and we both fancy a bit of marauding ,within reason.
    Quick question does any one know the weight the roof can carry before it collapses ? I ask this as we were invaded by 10 children recently and as I was listening to the screaming ,there were wasps in the roof at the same time , I did wonder if the old girl was up to it.

    I haven't joined in here yet - put me down as a member of the Hoarde! @Big Rhonda we're the kids on the roof or in the roof with the wasps? Sounds like a wild party or some new child discipline tactic, which is appealing!
     
  10. Kids versus wasps @Marzydj all in the roof at the same time .Let them fight it out I say .Very old school when it comes to child discipline/neglect. My money was on the kids though:theforce:

    Hi all,
    has anyone got a picture of how the downstairs bed fits together on the original super viking layout?
    Many thanks
    Dave

    Thanks @Big Rhonda, looks slightly different as mine doesn't have the seats to the side. I've got two seats behind the cab seats, with a table in between. Could do with seeing one without the cushions on!
    Is this what yours looks like?
     
  14. Ok I'm going to be honest we have never really moved around the seats downstairs apart from the obvious turning them around .Ours has 2 rear facing and two forward with a table in between and the little seat on the walk through. If you look on introduce yourselves thread under Jernau that's mine don't know if that's the same as yours. I have heard that putting together the downstairs bed is like a jigsaw puzzle not a problem for us cause we don't need to use it.The link I posted is confusing because of the side seat thing (what is that ?) but I've seen another picture of the bed put tougher and it looked the same . Obviously you are using the backs of the rear facing seats to form the beds. I'm not helping but I am going to think it through tomorrow ,I love a puzzle and I've already removed the cushions for winter so if I figure it out will I post the result.

    Thank you so much, the reason I'm asking is the chaps who have done the work on ours replaced the floor. Went to see it the other day he asked if we know how to put the bed together so that they could make sure the seats go back in the right place! He has measured it out, and I am taking the cushions up so that they can make sure it fits, so it should be ok. I thought if I could show them a pic that would be useful!

    Thanks for you help.
