Renault T1000 1.7 Petrol Autosleeper.

Hey.

Just bought on a whim the above Camper van. never had one before and I suppose if you cannot do something like that at 50 , lifes not an adventure anymore.

On the way home the speedo stopped or I noticed it was not working, this has to be one of the first jobs along with trying to get it to smell nice inside. We are hoping the 12 months M.O.T. will allow us an in road to camper vanning . I've downloaded an APP on my phone for the speedo , but I was wondering if anyone else has any info on the fixing of said speedo .

Heres to a fun year.

Thanks awfully.

Hey, thank you , I;ve discovered a large crack and a missing section of dash as well now, ( covered by some non slip mat) so it looks like another dash is on the cards as well, or a large dash tray.

I'll certainly have a look behind the dials .

thanks again.
