Averaged about 40mpg the van, which is pretty good as it's not been on a long steady run at all. Better than the 330d was round town!

Wheels are on hold for a bit now that I'm buying a new bike. My mate has some s6 wheels I'm trying to get off him.

I don't think I do, but whatever. It's way too early for spam banter replies.

unsure on them. quite like them but I've seen them fitted to a fair few vw cars and they don't look as good as id have hoped.

Borrowed a gear stick extension off a mate, bad pic, but it does make changing gear a lot easier. Think I will order one up and a pool ball gear knob while I'm at it.
Also got 4 more load hooks and a full set of t5 rear bench floor mounts! Now off to find a t5 rear bench seat.

It's amazing the difference that the gear extension makes! Definitely one of the best things I bought for mine. Looks like its all coming along nicely!

Gear sticks are really low and far forward in t4's from what I can remember driving my uncles years ago.

It's done great today the van. 560+ miles drove great and not even tired from driving.
Agreed about the gear stick position. The angled extender will work great! Going to get one purchased.

Bike and van at Cannock! Ideal vehicle for mountain biking really.
Really don't like the south.

Really like that! Nice looking frames and the kashima forks are bloody decent. I keep looking for a full sus and tempted with one of these.

Yeah I've wanted a remedy for a while as it's a step up from the trek fuel I have. Different to ride altogether, especially with extra travel and the front angle. Need to see how I get on with it on more of the regular stuff I ride in the lakes as it's chain ring is a 36t, which might kill my legs off, although was a piece of piss today at Cannock as there aren't really any hills tbh

You'll get used to it or if not just change the set up.
What components has it got? I often break high spec mtbs so if you ever need anything let me know
