:p Looks great! Is it too late to put a Christmas order in???? :angelic2:

Test............... Have reset my permissions & cache to see if that sorts out a couple of problems I have with my permissions. Will cancel this soon.

Sorry. didn't read your post clearly the first time (Been a very long day) As you rightly say, the bit of the bag you lay on is compressed so a bit superfluous. As a restless sleeper, I find quilts draughty in cold temperatures. I really like the concept of quilts in the winter, The EE Enigma...

Have been down the perfect sleep system rabbit hole over the past couple of years. Bought an Enlightened Equipment Enigma quilt but found I moved about too much to keep the drafts out so sold it on. (incredibly warm & a thing of beauty though) Bought a secondhand Mountain Equipment Lightline...

@TeeDee - Good plan, worth spending money on a decent battery & glowplugs with the Delicas too. When I bought mine, they had fitted the wrong plugs, (12v instead of 6v - weird design idea on L300) First cold day, my van looked like one of the Red Arrows (but a lot lower & slower!!) as I drove...

@Hammock_man Thanks for all the info. Will hunt one down & give it a try.

@Hammock_man Interesting. What are the internal dimensions as I'm curious what size pot would fit?

I used an Exped 22L Drybag (Green) to pack my Defense 4-200 Plenty of room for storage/loose carry when travelling and compresses down well when needed.

Beautiful photos & write up. Thanks.

Thanks for that. Ed Alleyne-Johnson-Purple Electric Violin Concerto is one of my favourite CDs. Just beautiful.

Met a guy a few years ago camped up with a VW panel van. All he had done was built a 3 foot wide by 2 foot high box on one side of the van. Comfy bed/sofa, masses of storage in the box & space for his bike & canoe by the side of it. He had been drifting around Scotland for a couple of months...

I never bothered to modify my old Delica other than removing one of the middle captains seats & adding some moveable storage boxes that fitted between the remaining mid-seat & the rear bench seat. I used one of those rectangular cookers that you get from Halfords & a few basics. All worked...

Well done. Looks great.

@brancho Never tire of that view......

Bongo has the advantage of the pop up roof so would make an easier conventional conversion. Delica is based on Pajero - so a proper 4x4. I went for the L300 Delica as it was more agricultural, robust, very low-tech & relatively easy to fix (Was great to travel with a tool box & spares again!)...

Bit of Delica porn to whet your appetite. Taken on Berneray & South Uist when I did a trip to the Outer Hebrides. :cool:

These are a bit more informative.
