We have a 1990 G reg merc 208 D with a Elddis Autocirrus conversion.
The plate says its maximum load weight is 2800
Got it weighted yesterday with no water in tank, no fuel in tank
empty fridge, 2 adults and minimum belongings in it
The weight .... 2780, cant beleive it, still have our 2 great danes to go in!!!
got home and managed to get another 50kg out, but no way we can go away at this weight as would mean going with no food, water fuel etc
Can anyone tell me what our options are, only need it up to a maximum of 3500 as thats all my licence allows me to drive too.
We live in central Scotland so looking for a local ish solotion, have heard we could do something to the suspension, but not sure what
Also the tyres look quite thin compared to our old camper van, they look like they should be thicker. they are 185 R 14C 102/100 Q
does anyone know how i can find out if these are the correct size for the converstion on the Merc.
many thanks to anyone who call help
