Re: A slight twist to the "bleeding method"
OMG this is just about to make life easier. New Bongo owner here. First attempt at bleeding it became apparent we had a pathetically small funnel .... result = scalded hand and abort. I’m off out to buy the bits to mirror your kit this morning and will hopefully have a more successful attempt later....

Sadly you may well have damaged the head as well, all too common if you continue to drive a Bongo when it's overheated. :( definitely bleed it and see how you go, but it may well be worth doing a 'sniffer test' to establish if you have combustion gasses in the coola...

Denby Caravans ... anybody got any experience
Hi Peeps
After about a year of looking at Bongos on internet and viewing a few, it looks like I am going to finally bite the bullet.
Am currently looking at a van converted by Denby Caravans in 2007.
Has anybody got any thoughts/knowledge on their reputation good ... bad... ugly??
TIA

New to Bongo Owning ... maybe
Hi folks
I have wanted a camper for ages and viewed a Bongo last night.
Its 1996 reg unconverted. I am sorely tempted, but also a bit worried.
Can you please tell me some of the pros and cons of Bongo owning.
I know you all love them, but there must be some things to watch out for?
Cheers
