    Is it legal to remove the bulkhead from a van?

    Hi M, It would still drip with the bulkhead removed. I'm used to converting motorhomes: Insulation, heating and ventilation :) C

    Hi A, I'll leave the e-call button, then, I'd hate to miss my dinner.

    Hi C, Yes, I'm pretty sure! I have one, so I'll look for the socket and see. This car is a hybrid, but can be held on electric if a button is pressed, say it's run out of petrol. If it is held on electric for too long it goes into the bottom end of the charge, which wear the battery out too...

    Building unit for washing machine.

    Hi A, Maybe a smaller table with smaller plates ;) I'm just off to look at kitchen units, to get some ideas, or perhaps buy some 2x1 for a short stud wall. C

    Hi A, Here's an artists impression: It's not roomy, but the table plus all of the units, plus the sink, is in the adjoining 3mtrx3mtr kithen. C

    Hi M, I was refering to anyone who calls another thicko, or anything else offensive, it's just not necessary. This is why I don't use Twitter. Since I asked the original question, I have bought a car, to find that I have a choice of share or not. I'm fairly sure the DATA is stored by the car...

    Building unit for washing machine.

    Hi F, Similar to a single washing machine kitchen unit with 'say' 6 to 9 inches gap at the side for washing powder. No kitchen unit top, but just a timber top. There's a wall on one side and I was thinking I'd add a stud wall at the other making the sides up. I'm not sure about how the door...

    Building unit for washing machine.

    Hi, I've just opened up a utility and a toilet and a coal bunker room to make one 3mtr x 3mtr square room with large window, separated from the kitchen by a chimney breast. I want to make this into a kitchen dining room, but there's a washing machine in one corner, that has to be hidden. I...

    Hi M, The car does have this system, and I'm not sure it will work, considering that I have not connected. Perhaps the emergency system will over ride my settings? C

    Dealer or private?

    Hi, I bought one from a dealer, that had the same model and colour that I want. It was sent to the dealer from Toyota, but as there was no interest, they sold it £3K cheaper. It was registered, taxed and insured on the day I picked it up, all good. C

    Is it legal to remove the bulkhead from a van?

    Hi, The reason I wanted to remove the bulkhead was so I could get a sleepover mattress in the rear. I like squareness, but a mate of mine suggested trying the mattress diagonally, and it just long enough now so no need to remove the bulkhead, just put a head banging foam headboard. Thanks for...

    Hi A, Yes, here: https://www.theengineer.co.uk/content/news/radio-beam-device-can-disable-car-and-boat-engines-from-50m/ I thought it was more specific than a general jamming device, and it's got to be serious for them ever to use it. C.

    Hi A, As I said I doubt that they would use it as it would cause an outcry, but I just had a quick look up and found this, which looks similar to what I heard. I think it jams the vehicle, a bit like 'switch off phones' when flying. C

    Hi N, It's my van, but on PCP, so I won't 'own' it till it's fully aid in 3 years. C
