"I have to say that we received wonderful service in completing our project van by people who know what they are doing and obviously love the vans - all that at a price of half the new Brazilian vans who are nowhere near as good in style and of lower quality build than the original German vans. I made a good friend who was always happy to help long after the purchase of the van"

"We were both thrilled to see the finshed van, everything was as, or better than expected. Having picked the van up from Bournemouth we drove home, 50 miles and a couple of days later we set off! 

Hampshire to Dover and then Chapagne for the first night. Then to lake Lugano in Switzerland for the second. South of Rome for night three and then hell!!!! The road from Rome to Messina is as the Italians call it "brutal". Mountains, contraflows through dark tunnels and incredible climbs and descents. The van didn't put a wheel wrong and we reached Sicily at 6pm on day four. 1500 miles after a 50 mile shakedown, mad or what. After a week in Sicily (see photo of Etna) we set off for home. Stops in Naples (Pompey) Rome, Sienna, Genoa, Nice, Avignon, Dijon, Paris and Boulogne saw us safely home. Just under 4000miles with just a loose sparkplug and adjusted points needing attention. To complete that trip in that fashion is a credit to you and Katie.
PS we cheated on the way back by getting a ferry to Naples! couldn't do that road again!"
