The work on my van has now been done though it did take 2 days so had to sleep on the forecourt for a night I did not mind doing that but i wish they would have phoned me to tell me that the van had not been touched on the day it was booked in. I then could have made arrangements for a night in a B&B a nice shower would have been so welcome or a good soak in a bath now that's something I haven't done in years. I do find it stressful when it comes to MOT time I think most People do and the thought of throwing more money to keep your vehicle on the road hurts us all a bit.
I have a question for any motorhome owners out there is it normal for a motorhome to have 2 different size tyres on I have 70/215 on the front and 70/225 on the rear the garage said we will just put the wider ones on the front for you what i cannot understand is why this was not picked up at the last two Mots they did on my van. Also, why has the tyre only just started to rub on another part of the van has anybody suffered the same type of problem if so what was your cure.
I always try to make sure the weight in the van is evenly distributed so I'm reasonably confident that this is not the issue
The cost of repair was £20.00 for the sheet metal, with the vat and labour the total bill was £300.00
Would it be better for me to get new tyres all around the ones on have only covered roughly 12 thousand miles so no real wear on them?
While i,m waffling on I have also found some damp at the back of the van it is one panel in one of the lower cupboards.I will look at this when the weather gets a little warmer for a van that now eighteen years old I think you should expect some damp.
