  4. Wasn't much to see really. Roof has 5 hinges, 1 has always been dodgy, last camping trip the wind pulled another out. Driving up the road today, an annoying rattle turned out be another hinge flapping about . 3 down. Only 2 at front holding it.
    the rear strut then pushed the rear of roof off the side of van. While trying to get the fecker back on, 2 front hinges came loose, then the front strut finished it off. Managed to disconnect the struts and get the popper back on roof, had a couple of straps to do one end, then got another strap off a friendly trucker for t'other end.

    @davidoft offered to have a look, so drove back to hayling island, where he managed to fix it. Luckily the hinges hadn't rusted out, was just the rivets had given up, so he got it all sorted , many thanks to him, saved the day.
    Owes him a pint we does.
    Now home and will leave again in morning, and go straight to the t/e campsite instead of a couple of nights near banbury first.

    What about the sliding door falling off :D , you must have some pictures, Kombi man is half deaf due to the barrage of little voices :eek:
     
  8. Oh yeah, and my sliding door has always been absolutely Marmite, so he fixed that as well, now opens, closes, slides , just like a t5. ONE HANDED !

    CHEERS @davidoft

  9. Big love and thanks to the Kombi-Man aka @davidoft!:hug: Aswell as the pint, we owe you a lot of chocolate biscuits purely for putting up with the shouting & banter of the small people! Those pesky kids! I'm sure your ears are still ringing! I should have paid you to superglue the boy's lips together!
