Hi Rossfromfriends, I like your louvred window in the back.
Is that a standard fit for an LT?
Could do with some more air!Smile

This was a converted builder van, but it was converted basically from new from what I know. The air flows in on the motorway, which was disappointing because I was going to make it a designated smoking area, haha. But it's good for hanging wet towels as we discovered...

We did bring back a fair amount.   The UK customs pulled two cars off the ferry for inspection. The neo-hippies in a VW van and a black guy with bling bling up the ying yang in a mercedes benz.

I thought it was a bit stereotypical but they were all friendly enough...

Mines a 1995 2.4 diesel Hitop - bought it as a rust bucket 6 months ago.
 
Just got it through it's MOT and now planning the inside.... Lots of fun.
 
I have just bought some sliding windows from Leisurewindows, now looking for some one in the Bournemouth area who can cut them in for me
 
Also looking for a'cheap' thetford cassette toilet

sounds good, how much were the sliding windows?  i noticed the LT badge on the front is slanted compared to the older ones, looks good. do you know what year they stopped making the old design? i didnt think they went as far as 1995

1995 was the last one - I think the new shape come in, in 1996
 
I ordered two S107 from leisure windows, they don't keep them in stock now and it takes two weeks to get them made up, but their service was brilliant.
 
The price (as I noted them at the time of ordering) were as follows;
 
S107 sliding Radius (curved corners) x 2 @ £83.37 each
+ Rubbers for the S107's x 2 @ 9.00 each
+ £18.50 (can't remember what that was for...)
+ £17.50 for a fitting kit
 
The whole lot come to £259.37 inclusive of VAT for two sliding windows. Their number (if you want it) is: 01536 266130
