    Ooops, I should have added my inlet connection does not have one of those filter cartridges that my 1997 Lunar had.

    Water pump inlet

    Hoping some one can tell me how easy it is to fit new retaining clips on my pump inlet. I am a little cautious in case by pulling the old ones out I have no retaining clips at all...

    Detachable towbars and parking sensors

    Another slice of RIP OFF Britain--The DVLA !!

    My VW Passat is 9 years old, £155 per year tax......... save 25% ! Won't pull the biggest vans but will handle your average 4 berth no problem. about 50-55 MPG solo on a run,33-36 MPG towing. Probably worth about £1500 as it has 160,000 on the clock.

    Steve, if you can afford to run a car that has a £205 tax demand then the £205 shouldn't be a problem either You could always try a cheaper rated vehicle

    I've had enough too, selling up

    There is an old saying that no matter how hard you try to blow out the oppositions candle, yours will shine no brighter but I'm not surprised that whenever someone defends their enthusiasm for caravanning they do so by knocking the alternatives. Lets set the record straight from the...

    Which way now?

    Personally I'd take the A49 Hereford , Leominster, Shrewsbury,A5 Wrexham, Chester,A55 Conwy route as the most direct and possibly quickest when towing. Far more pleasant than the motorway. Sit back and enjoy the scenery.If you want the best bit of scenery, turn off the A5 at Chirk and then go...
