Bongo virgin

Post by Aoc » Thu Jul 28, 2016 10:57 pm

Hi everyone, I am new to this forum and joined as I have fallen in love with Bongos and currently on the hunt.

Growing up my grandad owned a camper with side conversion so early thoughts are that is what I am after. However worried about the bed width so rear conversion might be best. A pop up roof is a must but the rest is yet to be decided.

It's for me, wife and 8 month old daughter...

What do you think is best? Any advice is very much appreciate.

Thanks

Very warm welcome. :D

I'd try and visit a 'Meet' and look at different conversions, talk to owners and see how each get on with their particular conversion. :wink:

I'm going to the Simply Japanese Rally and there's about 20 bongos going. Come along and say hello and ask loads of questions! Will be a good day out.
