The front suspension is now giving cause for serious consideration to change the front to the 'Kings springs' as per recommendations from other Ducato owners. Before doing so I am wondering about installing air suspension and would wel...

Hi again. Went to replace a globe inside the coromal campac 401 but found it is the fitting itself. Have unscrewed everything but can't see how to get the whole light off short of cutting the very small amount of the 2 wires coming out of the caravan front. It is the small swivel light over one side of th...

Hi all. Sorting out our first purchase of a second hand coromal compac 401 pop top van. We can, mainly thanks to Duh, actually put the awning up now - no help from the previous owners, and found they had glued velcro along one edge. I have removed the ultra sticky velcro but there is a lot of really stick...

While walking down the street one day a Tony Abbot is tragically hit by a truck and dies. His soul arrives in heaven and is met by St. Peter at the Golden Gate. "Welcome to heaven," says St. Peter. "Before you settle in, it seems there is a problem. We seldom see a high official around thes...

Hi all, I have just completed The Big lap - what an incredible adventure! Note clearly that I haven't finished traveling, there is still so much to see! But for now grandparent duties, dog duties, Happy Tax Man Duties and house renovating will tie me down for a while.

Hi, I like my caravanning, and in particular the free camping. I have a trip to the Simpson Desert on my bucket list, and am wondering if any members are aware that this sort of trip is available to members. I have my Pajero, which is basically standard, but I assume would be quite adequate. I would be inte...

Yes very grey and retired on the official next to nothing income as well. Anyway,I have had my van for about...

Farewell to Broome tomorrow (I hope) after a VERY expensive stopover. I'm glad I made it but I won't be back.....

Dogs dont vandalise, start fires, leave rubbish around,cut down trees yet they are banned from national parks.Surely a better system would be a data base on all people who stay at NP's with pets when first arriving.If the owner is irresponsible, that info is logged in and the culprit never allowed in...
