Andrew, I have a Burstner caravan with the euro plug fitted. I have an adaptor cable, i.e. the euro plug fits into one end, and the other end has standard brit grey and black plugs. It works great. You can buy them at good caravan dealers. Cheers Jimbo

My experience is that it does not matter what you do, it will always taste minging. We only use bottled water now for drinking and food preparation. Just like being abroad really, except minus the sunburn. Jimbo

John, I had mine fitted by a man and wife team who are registered and trained by Reich. They actually travelled from the South of England to my storage facility in Durham (300 plus miles) and fitted it there. All this and still cheaper than local dealers, and the workmanship was first class...

Can anyone reccomend any mirrors for the Rover 75. They are very stylish but a pain to fit mirror extensions to. Cheers Jimbo

same set up on my van mate. Swithc to ext until tank full, then switch to int. After two overflows, we have an unbreakable rule. When the tank is filling, NEVER WALK AWAY TIL ITS FULL. Saves loads of time mopping!!!! Happy vanning mate. Jimbo

I have a Reich fitted. One of its features is the soft start. This means that it does not jerk forward or backward when you activate it. This is mint for hitching up as you can drop the van right on the ball with nil effort and without hitting your motor. Highly reccommended. Jimbo

I have just bought this car and I love it. Looking forward to pulling my Burstner 455 Ts. It has strange howling noise at about 2000 revs, and dealers can't trace the source of the noise. Any one had this and know what it is. Any help will be apreciated. Jimbo

I am thinking of trading in my 1996 2.4 terrano sport for a 2000 Frontera 2.2 diesel automatic. Anyone tow with an auto Frontera diesel ? I am a little worried about towing with an auto as I read so much about overheating gearboxes. Am I worrying for nothing ? maybe someone can tell me...
