A bit of a long shot but if you are in Romania, Transylvania area and want to meet up let us know! We haven't seen another bongo for months!

Now then, that Magic Roundabout in Hemel gets a lot of people confused but I've never noticed an exit leading to Romania.
How on earth did you manage that!!

Don't underestimate the power of the Magic Roundabout!
I wish it had been that easy!
We are travelling around Europe in the bongo we were seeing all the sites but now we are having a little trouble with an oil leak so will probably just be seeing garages for a while (if we can find one!)

If you need any thoughts or advice on the leak, start talking

That's really kind, thanks.
We checked the oil last week all was fine. Three days ago saw a bit of black smoke coming out of the bonnet. Then the oil light came on. We bought some oil (admittedly not the specific one we should have used. We used 10w/40, it's hard to get the specific one in Romania!) We checked the levels and all was fine again but after driving to our destination 2-3hrs checked the levels again, no oil! Now any oil we put in comes straight back out again. I can't see where it is coming out of but the underneath is very wet with oil. Should also mention that the back of the van has felt very greasy so wondering if that has anything to do with things?
Any thoughts will be greatly appreciated
Thanks again
