Next brought some seat covers from auto leathers about £150 the sent. We did have problems and i commented on there post on just T4 fb. They messaged me and seen the problems and sent a new set out. When we put them in we used a bit of glue we carpeted the van with. Not put the new sent in yet.
Next my little girl outgrew her cart so we made her a bunk bed out of a cheap camp bed.
Next found some cheap sidebars so we got rid of the plastic drain pipes. But will be painting them at some point as don't like them stainless dont go with the van. Can see in the background started playing with banded steals
Next we thought we would have a go at changing the log book to a motor caravan. Put a table in there just for pics the gas bottle only goes in when camping then it's taken out once we reach our destination as don't cook in the van. As we only have one burner we put a old microwave in the cupboard.... It worked we now have a motor caravan lol .

Next we took built not brought to the extreme making banded steels We went with 16" vito steels.
Hubby wanted the vw wheel covers and i wanted caddy centre caps so compromised and had both lol.
Next work top looked worn and scratched over the last 2 year so for a quick fix brought a plain glass chopping board from the range and made a sticker. (Excuse the state of the carpet we will be changing it soon.)
Next we needed a drinks holder in the back.
Next after 1yr of nagging hubby finally gave in and we got new injectors went with rake's 0.220 and went to dirty torque for the remap. Just shy of 130bhp .Then 2 weeks ago disaster struck losing water done the fluid head test was a very slight colour change but not very noticeable. So now we needed to make a big decision repare the head/gasket or put the spare engine we have from the golf. After a lot of humming and arring and it being both our only vehicle went decided to rebuild the spare.
Thank god it went well and was only off the road for 2 days felt like my legs had fallen off lol. When we changed the engine accidentally dropped the bonnet so we started repairing that yesterday.
Also yesterday had to repaire 2 doors as we had to put my sons motorbike in the back as he had broke down never again
That's it upto now..... hopefully will have the bonnet finished today just needs lacquering and vinyl zip to be made will continue to add progress.Sorry if i've bored the life out of you alldyslexics are teople poo

Bit more done has damaged the front bumper so resprayed them and done inside the hatch.Next will be all the back end as it's faded and doing all the white again just can't make our minds up if to put a pearl on the white. Holographic glitter will be going on the lot need to order some in as accidentally washed hubby joggers with the glitter in his pocket but the cloths will match the van sparkly
When doing the back need to repair this where some twat has picked the paint
