    Nose Weights

    The MTPLM is 990 kg - and the car There's room for two - though Lunar probably expect 2 x 6 kg bottles to be used. My thinking was that the single 11 kg bottle would be lighter than twin 6 kgs.

    Nose Weights

    What is surprising is that in order to comply with Lunar's minimum of 50 kg and Toyota's maximum of 55 kg I have very little leeway. I will try a bit of weight redistribution next time. I've only got the spare wheel and the gas bottle in the front locker, which is a 11kg Flogas Propane bottle...

    Nose Weights

    The 55 kg is specified in the Toyota manual. The Lunar manual specifies a minimum of 50 kg and a maximum of 100 kg. The 70 kg was measured with the Milenco gauge.

    This happened to my wife and me as well ! We had both been feeling really tired with symptoms of a cold, and she did a test, something we haven't thought of for ages. Turns out it was positive - and so was mine. We had managed to avoid it by being so careful since the beginning, and thought is...

    Thetford fridge problem

    Just had a look at my fridge manual, and it mentions fitting winter covers to the vents at temperatures below 8°C. I'd never heard of these, but as we are taking a trip in 2 weeks this is something I should look at ! Possibly it is simply the ambient temperature at the moment which is causing...
