Ducting altered to direct very hot air from front heater into van using a 90 degree outlet. Replaced Fridge 12v and mains electric elements, plus gas jet. Water heater replaced with dual Gas/Mains model. Bathroom basin replaced. Kitchen sink drainage modified for better drainage. Replaced shower head with “Camel” shower head and new hose.

Lots of service history and bills. Appliance manuals and Russek vehicle manual for Mercedes 410D
A well used but well maintained example, which has spent most winters in Spain. We have lived in it, at minus 15c in Italy & France one winter (only waste tank outlet froze).
Original furnishings, so could do with a bit of updating after 25 years.
This vehicle is all ready to roll. MOT to 28/06/2018.
We cannot justify keeping this van in storage, as we aren't using it as much as we have in the past.
Known problems that don't affect use:
Possible heater plug faulty. Light doesn't come on at first but comes on after start up. No problems encountered starting in any weather. This is usually a sign that one of the 5 glow plugs is faulty.
Electric double step had been bent and straighten. Still usable. Buzzer disconnected.
Trailer indicator warning light intermittent. Bulb has been changed.
