My campervan conversion in youtube slideshow

Postby straydog » Mon Feb 05, 2018 6:33 pm

Hi Guys.
Thought I'd post this here.
I couldn't see how to add pictures to a post, and Photobucket don't seem to work anymore.
It's my Youtube slideshow of my Jumbo minibus conversion
I did the conversion last year (2017), it took about 2 months during the spring.
(Yes it was 2 months full time)
Any comments, Good or Bad appreciated

Hope you enjoy

OK so I'm replying to my own post :roll:

I may have had some good news from the DVLA
After many phone calls, and promises of return calls that never came.
Just got off the phone and a "Nice" lady says it's now been approved that my Bus is a Motorcaravan,
and should get my new V5 in about a week.
I just hope this aint the kiss of death.

YAAaaaaaa, Finally !!!!!
Just got my V5 back.
Proud owner of a "Motorcaravan"
Only took like forever.
Started this process before Xmas.
Loads of phone calls, setbacks and miss information.
Finally found a very helpful young lady at the DVLA
who actually seemed to know what she was talking about.

From the time I spoke to her to the time the V5 arrived 8 days total.
I don't think my application had even been started before she got her hands on it.
Unfortunately I didn't get her name.
But if she happens to see this, and recognises the bus.
Thank You very much for sorting it out for me :)
