    Defender Dormobile

    Yes - fold out stretchers (sorry - not a native English speaker here..) that are not too comfortable... Interesting to see how your platform will turn out. And make 300 % sure the roof / windows / fabric is actually waterproof before you put the bedding in..... (... no points for guessing...

    Defender Dormobile

    Well done - make sure the windscreen gap is 200 % sealed.. Have you seen the stretchers they "standard" come with ?

    Defender Dormobile

    Good luck with the conversion. I've been with many converted 110's and most people were quite happy with them Make sure you get a good night heater as they are quite cold at night and your in the middle of that cold on your stretcher.

    Looking good - quite some progress. Yes, those lifts are really, really good. Also usefull for swopping Land Rover roofs, trailer covers etc. And mine - several 1,000 miles down the road from you - looks like yours other than that mine is red. Perhaps there is one place that makes them...

    My Journey

    You got there in the end !!!!!!! Well done ! ...and as you are still with us, you did not hit the power or sewage lines. Driving them is fun - esp if you're 180 degrees turned and you push the handles and you drive backwards.... Nice trench - nothing wrong with and much easier than digging by...

    My Journey

    Coming along quite well ! Don't get yourself worked up about operating the mini-digger.... Patience and practise will make it easier for you. Get it somewhere you can't destroy much - open field, beginning of the trench, don't set the RPM's too high and get a feel for it. Smooth beats speeds...

    Do I need a mechanic to remove this heater?

    By the looks of it, you have an additional heater that draws heat from the engine coolant system and 2 electric blowers to get the air moving through it. If you connect the 2 hoses directly and bleed the system afterwards you should not have problems. But it will leave you with several metres...

    My Journey

    My Journey

    We have a video somewhere of my wife planting some beautiful new flowers with 3 Goldens sitting around her in half a circle watching very intensely what she was planting where. She promised some serious bodily harm to those that were to excavate her flowers she so lovingly had put in the...
