Hi all, we purchased our 747 at the beginning of December third time lucky hopefully, the first was resold by a company in Perth even although we had put the full deposit down and agreed a pickup date. Found another 747 down south that went back, we discovered after taking it out a few days later that there were 16 plus faults with it some would have been costly. We were offered another same year similar mileage but fitted with solar panel a self seeking satellite dish and a microwave ( have never used a microwave in my life) several faults with that as well but have persevered and have almost got it to how we want it. Fabricated a spare wheel holder for the garage area, fitted three double USB ports for the kids umbilical cords, changed all lighting to LED, fitted a decent sound system and speakers. Have purchased an external shower ( to hose the dog down) and external BBQ point but both can wait until the warmer weather before I attempt that. A friend who purchased several Burstners to rent out had 6 spare alloy wheels which were replaced due to the water ingress under the lacquer ( common problem) which he gifted to us. I took them down to the local powder coaters and he did a fine job restoring them, time to get oot noo! Sam
oh and a wine rack for Christina!

For what I paid to have powder coating was a no brainer, he even kept where the nuts seat clear so no chipping. Microwave is still a no go area so far, I get an Aberdeen Angus slaughtered once a year so cooking from scratch is my forty. Sam
