Bought this on a very expensive whim around 4 years ago and never used it. It has been sitting in the garden gathering damp, cobwebs and weeds.
After spending the weekend at Santa Pod with forum members and race friends I have decided to see if it is savable.
Put a spare battery in it and it started straight away. The ONLY good thing about diesel engines
Hovwever none of the lights, gauges etc worked. Found the fusebox, cleaned them up and everything now works, apart from the horn button. In fact there are two, one on the steering wheel and another on the multi stalk. Horn works so there is a break somewhere. My plan is to get it MOTd to see what needs to be done so a temp switch will be installed for now. Tyres were still up and have I just needed to replace wiper blades.
Interior is rather sad and dull. If the vehicle turns out to be mechanically and structurally sound then we will revamp and brighten it up. Only item missing is a water heater.
It is a 6 berth, which we don't need. So I am thinking of changing the end section behind the entrance door into a strorage area for race equipment. Just thoughts at the moment.
I tried loading from PhotBucket but no joy. What am I doing wrong?
