Yup, my spare wheel went a while back, tyreweld and small compressor on board inside the rear cubby hole :)
Looking forward to hearing the growl :)
 
I just picked up my first ever Elgrand yesterday from Adrian at Winchester Cars. Today i was mostly moving seats around to try different layouts and pressing random buttons with Japanese text on them to see what happened!

I’m three years in and still figuring out what the buttons do.. Adrian is a top bloke has helped me out loads .. and still is ...
 
I decided to take the glovebox off today just to see what's behind it and managed to snap a hinge off:( so i put the kettle on and admired it instead:)

I feel your pain. Broke mine a few weeks ago. Increased the amount of rattling in the van ha

Turned off the sat nav directions. Finally. Several months of directions after some aimless button pressing have finally been silenced by a Japanese co worker who went through the menus and cancelled my route.
 
You will be lonely on your drive now

More shiny stuff, love em, they look great. The Reading meet could be a good opportunity for others to bring along any of their 'swaps or for sale' stuff too :)

I have an E51 (Grey/Silver) rear numberplate surround that I'll bring along too if anyone wants it :)

I'm always doing things like this...last one was buggering my electric door cable trying to access the hidden bastard fuse box! Fixed one thing...broke another!

Aww we were using it yo learn Japanese though it does not help me spell *Ioso* 🤣
 
As I never really took to the gold colour that I painted my engine cover I've been experimenting. This is my latest effort but might be a bit too black so I'm doing another in white. I could be persuaded to part with this one for a few bob if anyone is interested. If you're at the SE meet on Sunday you can have a look.

that is better than the gold i though the gold was good just to caramel for me white with the side decal colours in there somewhere would be awsome
