EX RAC VAN OWNERS

[markspark71]

Did you hpi it before you bought it? I used my text check and asked for the service part of it. It was all sent to me on that THE MOST comprehensive history i have seen with a hpi ( in terms of records for a car/van other companies maybe as detailed but when i have bought cars before nothing shows on it and i only had what came with the car) and it all matched when i viewed the records with the van. It does cost you a couple of quid but maybe an avenue for you if you cant get any joy anywhere else.

Yes I did do a hpi before I paid for the van I don't recall seeing an option for service history though what company did you use for your hpi

Exactly that mate, but make sure you remove an treat what you can first. o

I have just checked with the Hpi company and they don't have any details of service history

That was my plan but I wont need to get a really good finish as I know it will be covered with the arch kit

Im dropping the fuel flap of at autopaint for them to match it as they say there are many shades of rac orange (they all look the same to me )

:D Fitted wheel arch trims.

Looks good

Fitted a stripe , I think the depth is too much though , a bit blocky ? I may get another in 3 sections like thin, fat, thin, with the fat section containing the text..

Are your wheels van load rated so you can carry a lot of weight? Are the my the Lamborghini look a likes ? If so where did you get them please would love a set

[martynx]

Yup they are Lambo style & van rated , i got them from Midland Wheels via ebay.. I dont recall the exact load rating but more of a concern is the tyre rating.. i couldn't find a correctly rated tyre at the time of its 1st MOT in my ownership when it was still as T330 legally but as i downrated it to a T260 ( swapped suspension, got new weights tag & got V5 changed ) it was fine for its 2nd..

Sorry mate i got confused. It was a mileage check i did. This then brought up all the dates and mileages which all tallied with the service history. Used my car check app on android. Have used it on a few previously and it never brought any info up. Used it on this one and everytime it went in for work the mileage was recorded.
From memory (which obviously isnt that good!!) It cost an extra 1.50 after the initial hpi.

Anyone having a problem with paint oxidising in the Orange club , if so have you managed to solve the problem???
The vans were specially made for the RAC and obviously sprayed at the factory. sh*t paint??.

Ive just Bought a Das-6 polisher and im making a start on removing the white looking stuff I think if they a polished regular it shouldn't come back (fingers crossed)
