I went round the Pilote factory, the roof was made up as a sandwich with a central insulation and structural part covered by a glue film and a decorative layer for the inside and top sheet for the outside. This was then glued together by melting the sandwich in a heated press for 20 minutes. I...

I have had my Silverscreen for 11 years, it has been in use for over 2500 nights travelling in Europe and at home to stop the van getting too hot in summer and cold in winter. They are often on for several days at a time. I have never had any problems with the paint or glass. I must admit the...

Are you going into Europe soon? I had a Fiat Professional service in The Netherlands and it was €300 less than in UK. 6 years ago Fiat Professional In Lisbon chartered me €40 an hour for a repair.

If you get an European pet passport please make sure that NO entries are made in UK. We have been warned about this twice. Luckily before any entries were made. Our vet in Essex has given us a separate document for injections etc that they do. Rabies must be recorded in the European Passport...

I'm from Essex! After my wife and mother died in quick succession I needed to sort myself out. I went to Sweden, Finland and Norway for a six month trip by myself. I deliberately stayed away from busy places. The wildness areas are so different from the UK. In rush hour you can expect 2 cars...

Please remember that your inverter will draw a VERY LARGE current from your 12V battery. If you have a 1000 Watt inverter it will take about 85 Amps which will require very thick supply cables. It will effectively flatten a 100amp hour lead battery in much less than an hour, my guess is perhaps...

Does anyone know if it is possible to get headlight protectors for a 2017 Ford Transit Trend 2 liter diesel? I have seen them for Fiat's but can't find the Ford equivalent. Thank you.
