What a fantastic trip. Very jealous like everyone else. Way back on page 1 - what mattress is that and how did it hold up?

It was the mattress on a cheap & cheerful IKEA bed bought many, many years ago to dress a room for selling a house. It's fine for sleeping in the car on the load-deck or on the camp cot when sleeping in the tent. Thumbs Up

will catch up on this thread when back in free wifi range as currently using 3/4G in the Italian mountains. Will also do a thread with pics and writeup too then, because I recon quite a few D3/4 owners would enjoy this neck of the woods too. Those that know me and are on FB can find some pics there - I'm not uploading twice without wifi - yup tight as a Duck 's Censored

Hate to think what percentage of those miles are on my jollies. Whistle And she's off to Poland in 7 weeks. Re servicing, was done in April. An expensive month. Big Cry Big Cry Big Cry

Oh, and that's just the first bit of June, done almost 600 miles since getting back and same again before end of month. Whistle
