We bought an Adria Coral Supreme in 2022 and wanted VB full air suspension and E&P self levelling hydraulics fitting. Took it to SAP in Doncaster who are a certified fitter of both systems. It should have taken 5 days but it was the first Ducato based vehicle they had in with the new electric handbrake. This interfered with the sensor mountings needed. SAP contacted VB, sent lots of pictures/measurements and VB designed a new configuration to get around the electric handbrake. Took 5 weeks in the end but I like to think our vehicle was the prototype for their new kit 😊 The VB system is superb, you won’t regret it. The E&P self levelling kit links to the VB system. When you pitch up and start the automatic levelling system the air suspension fully lowers first of all before the legs come down so they don’t have to travel as far.

Thanks for the information, fortunately we don't have an electronic handbrake. We're not getting the E&P levelling.
Hi I always watch on my iPad but my wife wants to watch also so watching on tv would be a great idea Loving the update Andy and Karen
I mostly watch you on my laptop and on the odd occasion the tv. I prefer the laptop because it's easier to navigate where I want to go and easier to make a comment and press the like button.
Hi, Bob and Jenny from the Blue Hills campsite on the hills above St Agnes in Cornwall. I'm here with my two cats Moses and Jesse enjoying the first of four nights in my self built campervan. I spent three nights in a lovely campsite with on site swimming pool, bar and restaurant plus other things. It was called White hill Country Park and Camping near Paignton in Devon. I live in Swindon in Wiltshire.

Sounds great, thanks for the tip.
The Woods is lovely, we really enjoyed that, been a couple of times, once when we hired a van, once in the CV, the backdrop of the hills is lovely and the food was nice in the on-site restaurant if you fancy that. - sure you will enjoy - be interesting to see how you get on. Think Rob.& Lynns will be good 👍 All the very best, David & Rachel 👍

We had VB full air suspension fitted to our Swift 574 last year by A&E leisure in Northwich. First class job done by A&E and the result is amazing. Quite expensive but well worth it. Does what it says on the tin and like us I'm sure you will be impressed particuliary with the miles you do every year. Enjoy.

Brilliant, thanks for another helpful tip.
I watch on tv and go to my phone to comment occasionally. Strange maybe but it works for me. Keep up the great work.
Hi Bob and Jenny, I now mostly look at you mostly on TV. I have just found out how to comment now on the phone. The air suspension will make such a difference to the ride, and it is so handy for levelling. Good luck and safe travels.
Excellent update, Bob and Jenny, looking forward to the trips

When ever we are looking to book a site up we always look to see if you’ve been there first, and look up a few others we follow to see if they’ve been too, your videos are so helpful, we have the same van you have and had self levelling put on, next year we’re hoping to get an A-frame added too, safe travels to you both😊
Hello Both great idea to do a video on the issues of viewing on a smart TV as you can’t leave comments, etc we always have to watch on our iPads. Take care ❤️
Fantastic Video. Well Done.
Hi Bob. I use my phone to send the video to the Tv. You then get the best of both worlds and can still “ like” and comment 👍👍

Dunnottar Castle is definitely a good visit Bob and Jenny. There is a circular walk from the camp site which in part follows the coastal walk. If you have the time, the lovely Rose garden at nearby Drum Castle is also a beautiful place to visit.

Great video as always, inspired by your tours, we've just got back from a couple of weeks multi stop 'mini tour' of Yorkshire in our Elddis 115, hitting Nottingham, York, the coast (Whitby, Scarborough, Cayton, etc) then back down south via Doncaster and Newark Motorhome show. You should do a tour down South, would love to see you hit some sites through Devon, Cornwall, etc as that's our usual stomping ground....

How do you keep your plants watered when your away? X
@BobEarnshawMoHo
Күн бұрын
Simple, we don't have any plants. We have a lawn and some bushes.
We have air suspension fitted and it’s great to improve the ride and help lift the back end (we had a water tank catching on the drive) it’s only pretty average At levelling on a pitch. Helps a bit but not as good as the proper levelling we had on our last van. Ours is just 6m so the leveling issue will be worse on your extra long vehicle
@BobEarnshawMoHo

Thanks, that's good to hear. I'm not too bothered about leveling, never really thought that was a big issue, but I always thought it was less of a problem in this longer van than it was when we had a 6m van.

But we connect to our home wifi from the drive. In settings there is the option to do an update - they can take ages so probably best to start them early morning !
