you wanting to put the original back in? coz my original is out and is not going back in. I'm assuming it was the same tray for the gipsy and cheetah. Have you got a thetford built in toilet?

Thanks fella :)  Just wish the outside had the plastic finish like a Gippo instead of the Tischer 'Woodchip'

Now i did see this!

Yes, i would have liked to buy yours and slip it in. I have a Thetford  toilet.

I managed to fix it by letting the local fiberglass company cover it in fiberglass and gelcoat. It surprised me how good the result was.

Thank´s anyway!

Thats right Gren, that picture is taken by the gate just after the test drive on the Sunday, has Mazz at the wheel as he was heading home and I collected the following weekend.
 
I saw it drive past us where we were camped on the Saturday afternoon and joked with my missus that if a Gypo as tidy as that was up for sale we would have one (I wanted a T4 Karmann she wanted a T3) and it was so we now have!
 
Was perhaps a bit more dosh than others but Mazz and Graham had done a lot and the quality of this van was better than T4 Gypos 6 or 7 years newer that we had looked at for similar money. Definatley a good choice and very pleased with the van. Only trouble is part of the plan was to sell my Autosleeper but now decided to keep her also so all worked out well in the end. These Karmanns are the way to go and the weekend I brought it back home Dragonfire709 came round with his T3 Westy to have a mooch. A week later I was on a flight with him to look at and collect his LT Distance!   Thumbs%20Up

That is Speedy's from Ireland, this is another one of Mazz and Graham's that was camped opposite us. Almost identical to mine and note the reg's are only one digit out between his and mine.
