  1. Lovely van! Welcome :thumbsup:
     
  2. Welcome in
     
  3. Hello nice bus , enjoy :)
     
  4. :)Thanks again everyone for your comments. One question I told you I'd be mithering, I was thinking about getting steel wheels fitted powder coated to match of course with shiney hub caps. The discs on the front aren't standard and I'm clearly not going to change that, my question is will 14" fit or do they do the steel wheels with chrome hub caps in 15" or 16" . Cheers all
     
  5. Yes, normal wheels 14 and that will look cool :cool:
     
  6. Yes always been a fan of the stock wheels if I'm honest.will hopefully sell these to fund the steels and the hubs

    We prefer stock steels too...we did a swap with another TLBer who wanted Alloys and got some lovely black powder coated steels in return :thumbsup:

    Oh, and nearly forgot...Welcome from the other side of the Pennines :D
     
  8. Cool wheels will sell on here. Why don't you pop em in parts classifieds?

    Quite a few folks on here from Greater Manchester too, so look out for some meet-ups :)
     
  9. Will look at doing that,don't want to be stuck without any though lol.looking forward to some meets.I believe there's one near me at the ainsworth arms in bury every month or so
     
  10. Someone has just put a free set up in classifieds, cambridge though, you might be able to sort something out with them
     
  11. Yep that's right :) @Dubweiser and @Tiny-Pie go


    Put a shout out on for someone to pick em up and there will be loads of lovely folks on here who could probably help to move them up country, or maybe you could combine a camping trip to cambs :)
     
  12. There is a swap section in classifieds stick your alloys up in there maybe?
     
  13. Cheers guys definitely do that,need to confirm 14" fit OK,I'll get one off my mates and try. Tempted with the feebies nobody turns offers like that down. Now how to get them from Cambridge. Anyone doing a trip up north via Cambridge by any chance.
     
  14. yeah that's bugnutz I go it's every 2 weeks on a Wednesday evening x think it's on tomorrow... can't remember x

  16. Someone on here will get them for you and pass them on i recon

    @Top Banana Racing sometimes does country wide tours collecting and dropping off VW's and parts for everyone like a sort of VW Farther Christmas he might be going near somewhere :thumbsup:
     
  17. Depending on timing, I might be able to do something similar?
    I have these for which I currently have no need, I could drop them off to you on the way up, then pick up the others to replace mine on the way back down?
    Can you speak to the other bloke? @stumpy77
