Sold it, and bought an A class Pilote as a replacement! Our first Moho was an old Pilote on a Talbot chassis, with a bed made up from the seats, followed by a Rapido with a fixed French bed, and now back to a Pilote, with a proper double bed in the middle of the back!!!
 
Took it for a wash/polish cos we'em going oop norf next week :)

Then replaced the rotary eberspacher control with an 801 digital controller
 
Well I got the centre repair in undercoat but it was getting way to cold even with the daughter hairdryer lolol.79C4E7A4-F614-4DB9-8321-7B143A9CE5F9.jpeg
 
Bought & tried out an Avtex STH3000 tv Ariel. Stuck it near a window not pointing in any particular direction, turned the power on in the tv setup so didn’t have to use an additional power source for the Ariel, auto tuned the Avtex tv and got 80 + channels !
well impressed, will come in handy if I head to the lakes next week as I reckon I won’t have the satellite up as it would blew away if the winds are as bad as expected !
