I think it's absolutely right that you wouldn't be able to get anything like Netty for £3500 🙌 I think she looks fab, but it comes down to how you feel about her...and I'm glad you are excited again, as I know you'll have wonderful adventures in her 🙏😍 Just like to say that I'm always impressed by your renovation skills...how you take anything on and always do such a fantastic job 👏 if I had (or get 😁) a camper/mini-caravan that needed some renovation love, I'd definitely be looking at hiring you Carol 🙏😁👏 Enjoy the rest of your weekend Carol 🤗 🤗
Hi Carol. I think you have done a wonderful job with Netti. I have a Renault traffic converted into a motorhome and I have fitted a diesel heater, I would say that it warms the van really quickly the only problem with it is that you hear a dull ticking sound but I think it outweighs the inconvenience of the van being cold. Good luck with your venture’s and best wishes. Chris.
Hi Carol she is looking great and i love the colour and good price for the lights and wow 3 months you have to wait for that window for your caravan thats mad you ready Xmas xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Well done and well said old need not mean expensive 😊. Diesel heaters can be noisy but it depends on the make and where its fitted. If it can be under slung and fueled from the Diesel tank you won't notice it.Other options are gas fire if you have it or as you said a log burner if you have storage for the wood as it's bulky.
I just fitted a diesil heater in the conservatory which feeds into the back room they are a bit noisy for a camper I'm going to change the pump to quiten it down cost 8p a hour to run on diesil😊 from garage. Going to run it on keresene when I get a delivery sorted will cost about 3p a hour to run😅would drive u bonkers in a small van😢 unless its outside.saved a thousand pound on heating this year will pay for a month in spain. Holla😅
Iam an engineer for a bus company and parts are a major issue even for 2020 registered vehicles what are still in production was quoted six months for new anti roll bar last year!
Good evening. No need to worry about the fiddly switch on the light. Leave it turned on and cut the feed to it from the battery. Put a switch in wherever it is convenient and safe. It's a ten minute job......or an hour in female time. Take care ❤
She WAS! A Bloody GOOD Buy!! ... You didn't buy it as an Investment anyway ... She'll give you Years of Happiness ... Which of course! - Is the 'real investment' 🤠
Nice one Carol. Great vlog. I was shouting at my screen saying dont put the lights up paint first and yay you did that. well done. Im thinking of getting my first campervan and find the cost of a nearly new one crazy money and so many vlogs i watch are from ppl who have new or nearly new campervans with endless issues on them. So in total agreement you have invested rwell with purchase 12 months mot and internal refurb under £3.5 k. Btw another you tube channel Alex the Cameraman who you may know also purchased a 1989 Talbot campervan like yours. He is doing major refurb on his in which one recent episode he shows how easy it was to supply a new diesel heater. Perhaps look him up you may be able to exchange thoughts and ideas. Till the next one....
There is company that will make a caravan window or motorhome window up. as long as you have the broken one to go off on size etc. i dont know there name off hand at moment, But its always a thought should you need in future Carol.x
Great wee vlog, thank you. Will be interested to learn what folk recommend for a quiet diesel heater. Like you I’ve been thinking about one but also like you, can’t stand buzzing noises!! I do have a gas fire but never used it - not so keen to be honest. My own van is 21 years old - love her.
Have a look at the heap that "socks with sandals" yt, has been saddled with, carols is worlds apart, i'm amazed at how much old motorhomes cost, even more amazed at the price of new ones also,. One word of advice is take out breakdown cover for it, just in case,. cheers ,.
@cabovermike Oh bless I know, I do follow him he's had nothing but bad luck with that motorhome. He's still not giving up though. Yes I do have breakdown cover 😊
Cheap home if you're homeless 😮I bought bulbs 6 pound on ebay they have a sensor in them led so cheap to run so can have about ten of them for the price of 1 60 watt bulb.only use in hall and landing so they come on automaticly when going in and out walking between frontroom to kitchen or bathroom
I like old stuff, l tell that to my woman often......our daily car is 19 years old & the fun car 32 years old. We're looking for a motorhome in the spring, l doubt it'll be less than 20 years old, we've looked and looked, newer ones have zero appeal and appear to be of a worse quality.

Excellent work Carol . Love all your content .❤️
Diesel heaters are noisy to start with but as they get up to temperature, they just tick along. Once it gets warm i turn mine down to 2 or 3.
👍
Another lovely video by a lovely lady ❤
Thermostat can still be defective because she should also get to 90 degrees when driving 💡

Coastal motorbikes for parts
Yes they have a hum
Macroeconomics for a diesel heater 3 year faultless
