Opened up the camper today after nearly a year. Was expecting the worst but doesnt seem that bad. Hopefully get away in it now i have a tow bar on my car. Cats seem to enjoy it anyway.

2017 update

So far all seems to be going well. Managed to buy myself a 4x4 but not without some issues. Had a few fuel problems after getting it home, it did not want to start and seemed to be sucking in air. Fuel filter replaced for the correct one for my car, fuel pipe from filter to pump replaced, fuel pipe from filter to tank replaced. That was when we found the issue, the tank had bren bodged! For some unknown reason someone had drilled 2 holes for the filler pipe and return pipe. Contaminated fuel and leaking fuel. So after paying £1080 the bill just went up by another £300, mostly labour costs. I wish i was a mechanic. But now the car is doing great. Hopefully going iff roading at the end of the month, lets hope the 4 wheel drive works ok. Had a great time at hammerfest. Long journey but always worthwhile. Had one of our friends have a booze influenced injury though. Now facing 3 months of recovery after fracturing his knee. Need to open up the trailer soon to see ehat state it is in.
