As stated, willing to travel (within reason) but closer to South West the better! :-)
Please get in touch if you have one you want to part with!

I use a 5" Garmin Nuvi with full Europe maps for the road, then MotionX on the dash mounted ipad for the pistes. The ipad is the cellular version so has a pretty good GPS chipset built in. I'm off over the French Alps mid August and I've cached about 10gb of topo maps on MotionX on all zoom...

It all makes for a happy camper... even when she's washing up! :D

Hi all!
Long awaited update... some of you have asked about my setup, well, it worked/is working really well for us! I can tell you that it was worth it's weight in gold for organising the boot while we travelled round Morocco back in September/October :) Here's a few pics of it packed in...

Jackattheback the boxes are listed as 50L on their website but they're actually 48L, Nevets22002 the flashing is the self adhesive type, you just peel the back and stick it on. It's made a big difference to noise and temperature in the vehicle, I'll be doing the same on my 110 too :)

Yes Holt15 exactly! I'm really surprised how quiet it is now :)

Evening all...
So today I mainly tackled electrics. I've had a leisure battery for a while now and been working out a way of mounting it in the vehicle, I made a plinth to sit in the bottom of the battery box out of a couple of scrap bits of wood I had lying about, the plinth levels the bottom...

I also started carpeting the front of the bulkhead... the carpet has finally reached the cab! I was gonna do a bit more but I ran out of light! Tomorrow is another day :)

Here's the rock wool behind the ply panels... should be nice and snug come winter :)

I screwed the two rear sections of ply to each other as there weren't many good fixing points in the corner, the section covering the rear window was tricky as it's not at all square...

I'll be doing a different setup in my 110, I'm building a second bulkhead to fold down over the rear seats and built in racking accessed by my external lockers :) .... but... that's another thread....
Back to the 90...
So the load area is now finished bar a couple more tie down points, I ply...

I might trim them down a bit, there's no way the tyre can touch them so I'll probably just leave them tbh. They'll soon dissappear into a couple layers of schultz anyways

Thanks for all the positive comments folks :) I'm pretty pleased with it if I do say so myself! As for costing... let's see... the ply was about £40 and I've still got the sides to do, I had the timber yard cut it to the rough size so it was easier to handle. The boxes were £11 each, the carpet...

Next was to start carpeting, I bought 2 metres of anthracite van carpet from a local carpet supplier, this stuff is quite thin and has no backing so it's great for this sort of thing. It came on a 4m wide roll so that gave me 8 square meters... I think that'll do to start with! I pre-emptivly...

Hi all!
Thought I'd share my handy work with everyone...
So when I bought my 90 the previous owner had built a nice little unit in the back and had a couple of bench seats either side, a nice setup but none of my stuff fitted in it and it took up too much of the boot space, although me and...
