Hi, Just wondering about the colour of your van, is it saffron yellow. Very smart indeed. :D

Sounds like a bit of a nightmare there RB!


There seems to be a lot of shite on the roads at the moment, in the past couple of months I've got a big chip in my windscreen and had 3 punctures on my shogun :evil:

nice looking van fella, noticed it a while ago on the a34 near me!
is it easy to separate the headlights to paint them black as thats something im thinking of doing along with dark side repeaters!
mines a 110 too and would like to up the power but think im gonna have to upgrade the injectors rom what ive read up on them not giving much power with a remap!
