Or you can just get a used car battery from the scrappers and use that. Works well. If you want the same amps as a lesuire battery, then use two scrappy batteries and plug them up together (positive goes to positive, neg to neg) with posts.

Damn!!

Why are people such ninnies that they name their vans? It's a very "american" trait.

I should know, being an American who refuses to name his vehicles.

A very smart purchase, in every meaning of the word. Welcome to the world of VW Camper ownership.

my too bit worth Solar is pants cost far to much will not generate enough power to run lights or water pump let alone anything else the only thing they are good for is keeping the battery top up if not being used for a long time. Generators are noisy (even the quiet ones) and a pain for others near...

ok, this sounds good.. cheaper than the 2.0! any more info about the 1776 ct engine anyone like how do i find out more and where do i source one, any good companies to go to etc? tried looking on internet but jusdt tells me more bout engines... i wanna buy one!! help!!! Just find a 1600 ct and get ...

A generator you need to run all the time and a solar panel just trickles the power in. Not necessarily. You can run a fast battery charger off 220 volts to charge up your batteries whilst your generator is running. Once charged, you can shut your generator off and enjoy the quiet scenery. Most suit...

You can get a nice little generator for about 1/2 the cost of solar panel that will really do 1/4 as much. We have a gas fired Cadac Safari Chef that cost us less then £50 and love it. For another £13 you can get the baking/roasting pan, but don't think it's really necessary. I tested it frying bac...

I highly recommend GoWesty for quality & fit/finish

Rude? I'm an American! We're know to be the kindest people on Earth!!

Rozzo, you're a star, but I just spent a load of readies on a used WAECO Coolmatic MDC-50 - no more absorbtion fridge woes. By the way, the door on the fridge you got wouldn't have been goldish-yellow would it?

This may help. Can't get more complete than this. http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/golf-engine-1-9-diesel-1Y_W0QQitemZ330317331459QQcmdZViewItemQQptZUK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM?hash=item330317331459&_trksid=p3286.c0.m14&_trkparms=72%3A1683|66%3A4|65%3A12|39%3A1|240%3A1318" onclick="wind...

Mate, each seller will sell an engine for what they sell an engine for. I think you got a good engine. That's more important than what it comes with. I don't agree you got screwed, only that your expectations have not been met. Since recyclers sell engines usually to blokes who have the same engine ...

Since Volksworld is this weekend, and in Surrey.....and you LIVE in Surrey....and there are many campers with T3s spending several nights there...who are VERY helpful....
