I have same model as you but 2009 4WD. Used to tow an Elddis - a bit lighter than yours but can honestly say that I hardly new it was there. Didn't use 6th when towing as I thought that was a bit cruel as most of the time below 2500 revs in 5th. It will pull away from roundabouts with the van on...

Son had his car rear ended by a van which pushed him into the car in front. he had a towbar and thought he had come off best with just a dented bonnet. When the car was inspected (2016 nissan Qashqai) he was surprised to be told that his car was written off. The shock of the collision had...

I see It's legal to put part worn tyres on cars, I've. Just changed my car and if it was pointed out to me if it had part worn tyres on I would of said get em off or no deal, I'm not bothered how good they look or the thread depth just get them off, As would I but..... Daughter lives 100 miles...

shall change it.

I had two caravans, both from new. The first leaked from day one and I persisted with it for 5 years before admitting defeat. The second cracked a rear panel after two years which was replaced under warranty and then cracked again after a year and was repaired under warranty. Gave up on them...

I suppose it's that you don't know why they were taken from the vehicle they were on.

Just surprised that the AA endorse the use of part worn tyres on the cars that carry their inspection label. The tyre could have come from anywhere and been involved in all sorts. Not talking about a cheap banger here - car is 3 years old and priced just under 8k. Shall change the tyre for a...

Adde this to an old thread which I suddenly realised was a year ols. Just spent about a month looking for a used 4 berth mh. After talking to a neighbour on a campsite last year we had decided to concentrate on european build as the build quality is supposedly better. Seen all the bad press for...

Daughter proudly showed me her new car at the weekend - 2016 Peugeot 2008 1.5 d. Nice car, bought from a dealer in Coventry. It was advertised as 'AA Inspected' so was somewhat surprised to see the front o/side tyre clearly marked 'Part Worn'. I rang the dealer and the AA this morning and was...

Provider was CCC!

Took a solo trip down to South of France. Car serviced, break down and travel ins booked hotel booked half way down - just a nice drive down calling in at Oradour-sur-Glane the morning of the second day then down to Bezier. Topped the car off at Dover to save the hassle later on etc etc. Just...

worked a treat thanks :-)

That's a good idea :-) I have one of those

Hi, I replaced two of the windows. Have the stencils from when I bought the van but what fluid do I use with them? I assume you stick the stencil on (they are self adhesive) but what then? Thanks

I also hope but - if it cracks again within the 1 year warranty period I shall be approaching Elddis with the view that they can replace it again ( for the 3rd time ). Hopefully ( if it does crack again) they will accept that it would be better to just take it away:-) It costs just over £3k to...
