You are stars that’s made me happy I’ve ordered one I’ve spoken to a guy who builds vans he said go for a refillable bottle there about £200 but a lot easier thanks again 👍
Great video 😁 Just out of interest have you worked out the weight of all the stuff you are carrying? We are getting our 68 in a couple of days and one of my concerns is the weight of everything that is going in, (excluding all the music equipment you take) we are going to be very very close to 3500kgs with full fuel and water.
@@neilsmith336 most of our stuff is pretty lite, even the amp is less than 10kg when gigging. We try to fill up with water where we go rather than carry it as it’s a lot of weight. 6kg bottles weigh just over 8kg each which is the heaviest part
@OnTheRoadAgain-NikkiandBilly I emailed autotrail about mro and they stated one bottle and the driver are included in the mro. But we weighed all the stuff we putting in the van from towels to carbon fibre bikes with an estimation on clothes for biking and hiking etc . We going to have to travel with Less water etc. Like you said in the video I wish I only ordered one bike tray now too, I'll remove one that will save 10kg. Forgot to mention we will have the pop up top which AT saud is 115kgs.. 😄
Yes it’s shown right at the start in the back right hand side. Just the one. But I suppose you could open internal doors to get some habitation heat in there too.
Not being funny but be very careful opening the back doors fully it actually touches the back windows and they can break really easy was warned by my dealer on pick up as they some back with broken windows
Hello! We discovered you via The Slaws! We're thinking about trying vanlife so this was good timing!
Welcome. Well you’ll pick up lots of tips on what not to do if you follow us :)
Thats a big garage for a van . Love the bike tray idea . Great vlog guys ❤
@BertieBus cheers. We need to go on a pub ride with you two sometime. Maybe in Spain :)
@@OnTheRoadAgain-NikkiandBilly defiantly xxx

@@shaunmarston7168 happy it’s helped.
Can’t wait to put both our e mountain bikes in our van when it arrives
@@philhicks5818 it’s great when you get used to putting them in. And love keeping prized possession out of sight
7:24 😮. 😂. Nice little feature through that bike tray.
@@EMTBnorthyorkshiredad it is. We are back over dales last weekend of September riding
@@OnTheRoadAgain-NikkiandBilly I did a fantastic ride on Saturday Harkerside Moor in the dales. I’m just editing the footage.
@@EMTBnorthyorkshiredad
We love Harkerside! Look forward to seeing your ride x
You find the hushes?
@@OnTheRoadAgain-NikkiandBilly I thinks so….. are they the rock gully descents?
I have spent 16 years wintering in spain/France and would highly recommend it,however i would warn you to be cautious about Morocco
@@johncleal1385 you are not the first to say this. We would love to hear about the pitfalls?
Great video 😁

@@neilsmith336 trays are easy to remove if you’ve not tried yet
Nice video - that layout is great for cyclists if you don't want to have a rack on the back. Does the garage have a heating duct in it?
Yes it’s shown right at the start in the back right hand side. Just the one. But I suppose you could open internal doors to get some habitation heat in there too.
If you look at the previous van we had a high rack on the back. We really wanted things out of site out of mind for travelling.
the adventire models are alot more in spec and the rear is the same length !
@@neildixon6134 20k more and without the bike garage so not suitable for us for use or budget
Hi guys, does the bike tray lock in position when slid out of the garage?
No there’s no locking that we’ve found but something like tent peg would probably do it. Will have to have a look. Sure something could be fashioned
