Cheers Teeb, am I right in saying the Karmann conversions don't come with an oven ? they probably have a bigger bog though 


Thomas A: I know its '80's but there is only so much eighties I can take, I think it will look a lot better with the spare mounted on the back though !!

Busbuddy: According to the sticker on the dash the width is 7ft 5 inches, don't know how that compares to you guys ?

Marmite: When we got the F&D it had an old fiamma electra on it but it only came out 2m and we couldn't buy the sides as they are not available anymore. Fiamma now produce 2 type of privacy room - one which clips onto a compatable fiamma awning or the one we ended up going for which is the fiamma zip, so called because the sides zip on and make it more windproof. The downside is you have to buy a new awning and the privacy room - about £800 if I remember correctly
It was well worth it though as we have no plans to sell the camper and it is great to have so much extra room which is wind and rain proof !

Cheers for that, but at £800 I'll give it a miss

I think the rhd ones might have  seem to remember alans having fittings for something like that but martin would know coz he knows richs' quite well

 

I think my van body is 6'8" wide so if yours is just the body and not mirrors then thats a good bit wider 

whats the bit coming out above where the cooker is do you have an extractor fan???
