  1. £400? I'm not sure of my tailgate opens fully but I just about fit under it so not been too bothered.
  2. Got the C rail fitted and a Faros II Air beam. Really happy with it so far.
  3. I got one and it works really well. No draught and the dog cant get out between the wheels, but he does manage to get out behind the rear one.
  4. Anyone got a draught excluder for between the wheels when you have a side awning up? The inflatable types look expensive and I've not seen one that'll fit perfectly between the wheels.
  5. Post some pics of the connection if you can please.
  6. I was noseying at camper awnings on a site last week and one Alphie I saw seemed have a kador(?) strip that was longer than their c rail. It just overhanged a bit and the tunnel from van to tent was just squashed a bit. I dont know if that would lead to problems in bad weather but it looked fine. I'm getting tempted by the Mango Hexaway just now, it might be too big for my needs but it looks well smart.
  7. I saw someone trying to sell a gold one for £350 haha
  8. Is it long lasting enough? I read it can start peeling a the edges after a couple/few years.
  9. How much do you reckon it would cost to get this lovely green done on the bottom half of the Alphie in the background? Or would the silver top half need redoing as well? I can't afford it but I just wanna know so I can seethe about it.

    I noticed a couple of mine are missing on my rear wheel arch. Have you found the right ones yet? The range of clips available is vast.
  11. Just going off what I found since buying an Alphie a few months ago and researching it.
  12. Custom brackets are needed so this increases price considerably. Also where you can get it done. They dont do standard fitting kits like they do for more common vans so it means somewhere fabricating the parts and it seems they dont want to share these parts when they can charge more for installation, which is fair enough. I tried getting in contact with Fiamma of Italy but couldn't get past the UK suppliers who only import the parts and have no influence. good luck with it and please post how you get on for others.
  13. No wood effect decals sadly but it only 1/24 scale so some dabs of brown paint will hopefully do the job when it's also inside the cabin. Gonna try and make it as faithful to my van as possible though. edit: the VW 1/16 scale I did took me 3 years so this won't be a fast thread haha
  14. Looks to be straightforward enough, but it's gonna take me a while to suss out how to give it a pop top roof like mine and maybe even the side conversion on the inside. Updates to follow.
