  1. And he can see no reasons coz there are no reasons


    I like the look of a split though up close they are like a bay that's far away (small) but I'd rather have a bay for practicalities sake.
     
  2. I don`t like beetles or splits ,repaired loads and drove them but never liked either...

    Give me a morris marina ... ;D

    I have a T25, but we are not friends at the moment.. >:D

    westy is nice, but I do have a soft spot for the dormy .... 8)

    Splitties are OK to drive after a couple of minor modifications.
    i.e. 1/ a Red 9 front end
    2/ an IRS rear end
    3/ a bigger engine
    4/ the new Red 9 rear end.
    So with a few cheap mods you can have a beautifully handling splittie.
    I'm still waiting for my mate to decide if he wants to sell me his 1957 panel van, I've even been given permission to buy it. :)

    I've had a change of heart. I'm here in the Ashdown Forrest enjoying the surrounds. I was here yesterday too and Coden beach on Tuesday. I wanted to move not so long ago because I wanted a garden. Instead my bus has a garden. England. And I don't have to mow it :)

    I'm looking at those who are admiring my bus for it's "go anywhere with your kitchen" life style and it got me thinking. Anyone of us with a bus of any description that use it for whatever purpose are the luckiest people on the planet.

    I wouldn't buy a Brazilian bay because of dubious quality but what they do is give an option to some people to buy a new vehicle which is unlike anything else on the market.

    I don't think it hurts the bus scene atall to have the likes of Richard Hammond driving around in a bay of any sort.
